TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER: A TIME FOR TAX REFORM:
Some call it the first wave of a genuine taxpayers' revolt. Others
say it is but the annual cry of anguish under the April 15 income-tax
deadline. Whichever it is, Washington is feeling uncommon heat
from taxpayers who believe that the present income-tax laws provide
too many loopholes for the rich and put too great a burden on low and middle-income groups. The Nixon Administration is eying a
sheaf of remedial proposals. And this week the House Ways and
Means Committee launches its own extensive inquiry. To assess the
angry mood and the prospects of reform, Newsweek Washington correspondents James Bishop Jr., Samuel Shaffer and Henry T. Simmons interviewed key government officials and legislators. Their
reports -- and those of Newsweek bureaus elsewhere in the U.S. on
the increasing burden of state and local taxes -- were put together in
this week's cover story by Associate Editor Tom Nicholson. (News.
week cover painting by Tomi Ungerer)
CAMPUS IN CONFLICT:
Across the nation last week, student rebellions flared on campus
after campus and escalated the crisis of the generations into a new
phase. The all too painfully familiar pattern played out again at
Berkeley, at Duke, at Wisconsin: black-student demands exploding
into patricidal warfare. But now, a gathering backlash has begun to
sanction increasing counterforce -- to a point where National Guard
troops occupied Wisconsin's campus at bayonet point. And counter-
force seemed only to polarize the generations more than ever. With
reports filed by Newsweek bureaus and campus correspondents,
Senior Editor Edwin Diamond writes on the U.S. campus in conflict,
and describes how at least one troubled university, Chicago,
managed to cope with its problem.
THE GREAT TRUFFLE SNUFFLE:
For centuries the aromatic truffle has been
one of the glories of French cooking and an
ingredient in that nation's economic health.
French truffle hunters, using their sensitivenosed pigs or specially trained dogs to dig
out the small clumps of fungus from among
the roots of oak trees, have just weighed in
with one of the biggest harvests since 1956.
To document a truffle hunt, Newsweek's
Elizabeth Peer (photo) accompanied a French
farmwife and her pig in a careening search for
the mysterious product. From her report and
his own gourmet experience, Associate Editor
Jack Iams wrote the story.
