Johnson said.
Nixon acknowledged to John-
son the frustration of having
top strategy and plans revealed
to the newspapers. He did not
speak specifically about his fu-
ture plans, but did say he hopes;
to travel and help where he can
to achieve world peace.
Johnson urges the American
people to re-evaluate Nixon.
"Since Socrates, so many peo-
ple that did so much good for
the world have been perse-
cuted,"' he stated. "It is hard
to imagine what it is they have

suggestion was "not in the form
of a blanket request," Powell
said.
Carter also said he might
urge the businesses to shift
from natural gas to using oil or
- coal during the gas shortage.
Powell said Carter's chief en-
ergy adviser, James Svhlesin-
ger. had reported, that a "sig-
nificant amount of fuel,' par-
ticularly natural gas, nas been
located and could "have a sig-
nificant impact" on alleviating
the energy shortages.
THE SPOKESMAN said there
is an excess of natural gas in
storage in the West, but it can-
not legally be moved into inter-
sVate pipelines to needy areas
elsewhere without the emer-
gency legislation that Carter is
seeking from Congress.

Not all students agree with
the idea of a coffee boycott.-
Steve Smith argues that produc-
tion costs may have increased,,
justifying a price hike.
ANOTHER STUDENT, Gigi
E-Bayoumi sides with the Bra-
zilian workers. "I'm not sup-
porting the boycott because it
will affect the Brazilian work-
ing class and already they are
in bad shape, living at a sub-
sistance level " she said. "The
companies are buying coffee at
dirt chean prices and selling it
to Americans at high prices.
Who suffers? The Americans
a-d Brazilian workers."
Herb Hames, German Teach-
ing Fellow, cited friends of his
who had recently been in Brazil
say "coffee is just as expensive
in Brazil." As a supporter of
the boycott, he won't buy it at
home but added, "I do drink it
at work because it costs only
one nickel."
For hardcore coffee drinkers,
there are a few alternatives
available to ease the economic
burden. Student Mike Krzys is
cut ing back on the number of

cups of coffee he drinks in res-
taurants, since they have start-
ed charging by the cup. Otners,
in lieu of abanidoning coffee al-
together, have switched to
cheaper brands.
SINCE THE boycott began,
local student supported markets
have suffered a significant drop
in coffee sales. Sgt. Pepper's
General Store has "hardly been
selling any coffee-people have
been buying tea instead.' An-
other Ann Arbor grocer ad-
mits to a drastic drop of 50 per
cent in their sales.
On the other hand, coffee
sales in major off-campus su-
permarkets, such as Chathain
and A&P, have shown little
change.
With the e v e r increasing
wholesale price, some stores
refuse to even s'ock ground
coffee. K&S Food Market states,
"If we did we would ,be losing
money."

People's Food Co-op al 39 re-
fuses to stock coffee, though
not because of the price. Their
reasoning is "coffee is un-
healthy for the body and es-
pecially the nervous system."
Instead, they advocate Pero, an
instant beverage powder with a
taste similar to coffee, as an
alternative to the caffeine-in-
fested brew.

giving the public a poor image

"Korff happens to be a very in-
teresting man. He's so dedi-
cated to principals thathedhas
defended Nixon even though he
didn't vote for him in either
election," said Johnson.
In a November visit to San
Clemente, Johnson urged Nixon
to communicate with Americans
so they could better identify
with him.
