Abstract
Description
Labor columnist Riesel writes a generally flattering column on AF in the wake of recent reports of an extremist plot to kill Whitney Young. Puts AF into the camp of Young and Wilkins, who "believe it wiser to better it than to burn it." Has doubts about the RPP but not that AF and Nixon have become friends. Notes that AF was the first Black to have a press conference in the WH.
