The article presents information on several socio-political issues. U.S. President Ronald Reagan has shown the decisiveness that has been one of his most admirable features. With the appointment of a bipartisan council of wise men and women, he could emerge from his present difficulties with his political credit not diminished but increased. In the past six years, Reagan has done much to renew the U.S. Lieut. Col. Oliver North's quivering emotion on taking the Fifth was solemnly acknowledged by many on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and some Democrats were ready to join with Reagan in honoring a man who has spent the past few years arming men whose favored pursuit is the raping of women and the disemboweling of infants.
