1975 In 1975 the United States began its adjust- ment to a world where events seemed to out- run our capacity to absorb them. While Rocke- feller began investigations into the misdeeds of the CIA and Ford announced the U.S. was in a recession, the Bicentennial celebrations officially began. In April, Vietnam again e ntered the news as the re- . maining U.S. personnel had to be evacuated from Saigon. Meanwhile, New York City was in the midst of financial crisis. The danger of aerosol sprays to the atmosphere, an assassination at- tempt on Ford, the UN declaration of ay Zionism as a form of racism, and the J dictatorial emergency in India § were other newsworthy sy events. lh Sx 4 LYNG THE WORLD AROUND‘US

1974 By 1974 the United States was making moves to adjust to a milieu of seeming crises. The Alaskan pipeline was approved, Kissinger’s nego- tiations in the Middle East finally resulted in an accord, while the Republican Administration was increasingly under fire in the Watergate investigations. Ameri- cans were horrified at the kidnapping of Patty Hearst and amazed at the resignation of Nixon’s top aides, and also intrigued by Mariner 10's fly-by of Mercury, Hank Aaron’s 715th home run, and Russia’s deporting of Solzhenitsyn. In July, the American political crisis came to a head with the subpoening of Nixon’s tapes, his resignation in August, and Ford’s pardon in September. Finally, Ford approved pri- vate ownership of gold and the Oil Embargo was lifted. THE WORLD AROUND‘US

Marijuana was decriminalized in California, a new investi- gation of the Kennedy and King assassinations was begun, and in Congress a new scandal began as a result of Elizabeth Ray’s revelations. Mean- while, old faces made one last appearance BS as Eldridge Cleaver returned to the U.S. for trial, Mao died in China, and King Kong returned to New York in an oil tanker. y THE WORLD AROUND US i
