"Congress could block it,"
Rozman said. But he doubted
that will happen.
"If people are scared, h
will be hard to defeat."
Shannon theorized. "It will
depend somewhait on the
Congressmen's mail."
Nixon himself expects to
achieve Congress's approval, t
perhaps only after extensive
debate. Those hopes were in
creased when Senators

Richard Russell and Everet
Dirksen both announced they
would favor the system.
The professors do agree on
one tiling, though. Nixon's so
called honeymoon has ended.
"When Presidents begin
making hard and fast
decisions, their popularity
starts to go down." Shannon
said.
Wihen the first real decision
is made, no matter what the
decision, the honeymoon is
over, Mrs. Wadiow pointed
out.
No matter what his
decision. Nixon was bound to
be cNtiUei. Shannon said.
"Any President Is trapped;
any President is In an un
fortunate position," he said.
"Being President looks easy
to editors and teachers on the
outside." It's what a former
President termed the
"loneliest Job In the world."

In The Union
(CPS) It's happening on prac
tically every campus. More and more,
the campus ministry is -assuming an
active role sometimes a leading
one in aggressive political and
moral stands on the war, selective
service, racism and community
development.
And, like other movement factions,
anti-war organizations centered
around churches are groping for new
issues to pursue while the Paris talks
deflate anti-war sentiment.
ALIGNMENT WITH radical causes
Is relatively new to campus churches
on such a large scale. Before the
mythical "new morality" came into
vogue, college ministries would often
be filled with retired missionaries
whose benevolence would often extend
to permitting bake sales to go until
midnight, appearing in "Is there a
God?" panel discussions and serving
as advisers to fraternities.
Comes now the myth of the "new
morality." People are "swingers."
Speak openly and honestly. Sleep
together if you really "mean" it. Turn
on, but keep your perspective. And
above all (to borrow an old Quaker
maxim) let your lives speak.
So there has been a change in the
attitudes of a good many campus
chaplains. All of the feelings which
are now out in the open in society
have always existed, covered up. Now
that they are exposed, the campus
"god-squads" often with the younger
chaplain in the forefront, are involv
ing themselves just as political groups
do.

were neither structured nor equipped
to handle this new mood. While the
National Council of Churches had a
lot of the same sentiment, its too-broadiy-based
constituency wouldn't
really allow it to move rapidly into
such a specialized activity.
So it was natural and inevitable
that some group would arise. It did,
during the Christmas bombing pause
of 1965 when a group of the country's
better-known pastors and their lay
supporters formed Clergy and
Laymen Concerned about Vietnam
(CALCAV).
CALCAV has a lot going for it.
First, its name: nothing militant,
simply "concerned." Another ad
vantage is the facade of the cloth
For some mystical reason, no matter
how aggressively a clergyman takes
a stand on an issue, he gets a much
less negative reaction than other
protesters because of his profession.
CALCAV, THOUGH, seems already
to have rached its peak and it is
now looking for new things. The
"glamour" is fading from anti-war
activity. They may have found a new
focal point in working with draft
resisters and military deserters.
If what went on at their third annual
meeting in Washington is any indica
tion, militant pacifism and resistance
work might catch on.
There were considerably fewer
participants in this year's conference
than last, despite CALCAV's 25,000
membership. But the stalwarts were
there, and a sizeable number of
philosophy and theology students
showed up.
THERE WERE, of course, two of
the founders, William Sloane Coffin,
Jr. and Rabbi Abraham J. Hirschel.
Both spent most of the three days
giving encouragement to those
clergymen who came from Isolated
areas and thus "are forced to fight
the good fight alone," as Coffin put It.
it.
David Harris of Resistance gave the
best-received speech of the con
ference. Earlier his wife, Joan Baez,
entertained the audience with songs.
Harris' premise was that "Vietnam
is not a contradiction of the American
way of life the frightening fact
is that Vietnam expresses it."
Harris, who faces a three year
Jail sentence for refusing induction,
told the CALCAV audience "it's an
honor to be a political prisoner in mod
ern America I've found . no better
occupation."
"WE MUST find a new set of
assumptiins to base America on. We
must make the notion of brotherhood
a political and social reality. Right
now that notion of brotherhood Is in
contradiction with the American
state."
Harris' humanistic theology seemed
to catch the mood of the whole con
ference: political prisoners are
prisoners for the crime of life. They
refuse to be instruments of death.
"We can use our lives as bricks
and mortar to buid a world where
no one lives off the back of another.
We can find nothing more worthwhile
on earth to build. When there it
nothing more powerful than human
life, then we can rest."
