Bravo to Mr. Vasquez, whose fundamental decency he
has allowed gracefully to surface.
Of course, it would be naive for us not to acknowledge that Mr. Vasquez's
re-election chances, following fiasco Citron , look as bleak as, say, Lyndon

mature mind and spiritual peace, misfortunes can have a wonderfully clarifying
effect about just what in life is important. This could well be the story with Mr.
Vasquez. Certainly the desire to give more time to one's family _ which Mr.
Vasquez claims is his main motivation _ is laudable, as is the implicit admission that
perpetual, uninterrupted service in public office isn't necessarily conducive to
psychic health, or, indeed, to the larger health of society.
