COVER: SHOWDOWN in DETROIT: UAW President Leonard Woodcock.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
PLAYING WITH DYNAMITE: From coast to coast, revolutionary terrorists took a rising toll of victims -- and stirred a growing tide of national revulsion. Associate Editor David M. Alpern tells the story of an FBI manhunt for four white radicals charged with setting off the most devastating explosion yet in the far left's campaign of terrorism. General Editor Richard Boeth chronicles the nationwide war on policemen being waged by black and white revolutionaries, and Associate Editor Arthur Zich details the latest case in point -- Philadelphia, where one cop was killed last week (photo) and several were wounded by black extremists.

U.S. PRISONS IN TURMOIL: A wave of unrest is sweeping U.S. prisons -- spurred by voices from both inside and outside the walls. Some of the problem is new; much of it chronic. The nation spends more than $1 billion annually to deal with the 2.5 million Americans who are locked each year in local, state and Federal prisons. But the system does little more than condition first offenders for repeated returns to jail. To survey the penal system, correspondent Nicholas Horrock was sent on a tour of prisons across the country. From his and other files, Associate Editor Charles Michener writes about the turmoil in U.S. prisons. In a companion article, Horrock details the human misery of life lived behind bars.

THE MIDEAST: A QUESTION OF CREDENCE: Last week, with one-third of the 90-day cease-fire already over, peace in the Middle East seemed as much a mirage as ever. From reports by Michael Elkins in Jerusalem and Beirut bureau chief Milan J. Kubic, Associate Editor William Lineberry recounts the difficulties of the continuing search for an Israeli- Arab settlement. In a companion piece, Beirut correspondent Loren Jenkins describes the latest assassination attempt on Jordan's King Hussein.

SHOWDOWN IN DETROIT: Detroit's triennial ritual -- the contract talks between the United Auto Workers and the Big Three auto manufacturers -- is heading toward a showdown next week. The betting is that the union's new president, Leonard Woodcock, will call a strike that could stymie the economy's new upturn. Reporter Jon Lowell covered the talks in the auto city, while Tom Joyce explored the implications in Washington. To learn the mood of the people on Lowell the assembly line, Martin Weston worked four days in an auto plant. Lowell and Detroit bureau chief James C. Jones interviewed Woodcock, and General Editor Tom Nicholson wrote the cover story. Newsweek cover photo by Lawrence Fried.
