THE GRADUATES: Commencement day for the Class of 1969. Caps and gowns, Latin orations, proud parents with cameras -- and armbands of Vietnam protest, mass walkouts and counter-commencements, valedictorians rising to denounce society and its political leaders. The turbulent academic year finally ended last week on U.S. campuses, but the issues that divided the universities still remain as an army of 750,000 graduates passes into the wary society beyond the university gates. Edwin Diamond, a Newsweek senior editor who has followed the campus revolt ever since the Berkeley sit-ins of 1964, examines the new class of nearly 7 million students, the reasons for their profound anger and the shell-shocked state of faculty and administrators and concludes that more rough times are ahead for adult authority. TOP OF THE WEEK: THE MEANING OF MIDWAY: After eight years of escalation, some U.S. troops were finally coming home from Vietnam. Yet, in the wake of President Nixon's announcement of the 25,000-man pullout, it was still not clear whether the cause of peace had been advanced. To assess the major stumbling blocks that lie ahead, Newsweek called in files from Saigon bureau chief Maynard Parker, Paris correspondent Richard Z. Ches- noff and Washington correspondents Henry Trewhitt, Joel Blocker and Samuel Shaffer. From these reports, General Editor Edward Klein wrote this week's report on the view after Midway. In a com- panion story (page 41), Associate Editor Russell Watson describes how peace jitters in Saigon have already impelled many South Vietnamese to leave their homeland. THE U.S. AGREES TO ARMS TALK: President Nixon played a high trump card last week. From Washington, Contributing Editor Leon Volkov reports that, partly in response to the rising tide of Congressional dissatisfaction over the US. deployment of anti-ballistic missiles, Mr. Nixon quietly passed word to the Soviets that he was prepared to begin strategic-arms-limitation talks with the Russians -- possibly as early as July 31. Pentagon correspondent Lloyd Norman describes the position the United States has prepared to take in the negotiations -- including acceptance of ABM's and MIRV's for both sides. SALVAGING THE INCOME-TAX SURCHARGE: The Nixon Administration went into high gear last week to persuade Congress to extend the income-tax surcharge beyond its expiration date of June 30. At the White House, at the Treasury and on Capitol Hill, Washington correspondents John Lindsay and Henry Simmons and other members of Newsweek's Washington bureau pieced together the picture of the Administration's last-ditch efforts, including details of President Nixon's closed meeting with House leaders of both parties. From their files, General Editor Tom Nicholson writes the story. NEWSWEEK LISTINGS: NATIONAL AFFAIRS: Vietnam: the long, long way home. The U.S. gives a go-ahead for arms talks with the Russians.
