The Community Action Program
Initially, the Community Action Program (CAP) of the Economic Opportunity Act (EOA) meant different things to different people, but few fully understood its theoretical underpinnings and its future directions could not be predicted. Since then, CAP has evolved into an "umbrella" for a collection of social, educational, political, and welfare-type programs. Half of CAP's funds for the first four years went to prepackaged national programs such as …

The Great Society Did Succeed
President Lyndon Johnson's social welfare philosophy captured the imagination of the country in the mid-ig6os and spurred it into action after a decade of lethargy.

An Appraisal of the Antitrust Approach
There is a revived interest in the application of antitrust legislation to unions. Those who favor this legisla tion assert that unions possess excessive power and enjoy spe cial immunities under the law. Even if the claim of the dam aging impact of unions were correct, it is rather doubtful whether the mere application of antitrust legislation would in itself provide the remedies sought by those who would weaken the power of unions in collective…
