The recent incident of urban terrorism in Washington, D.C. is a dilemma-provoking situation. The dilemma, of course, is how to protect our President when Mr. Carter is actively making him self available to the public—a public recently plagued by hostage-taking. The only reasonably safe way to insure his safety seems to be for him to remain secluded from the public. The incident in the Capital seemed to have been one of previous planning (the hostage-taking and building occupation ) occurred in too rapid succession to be otherwise). Therefore, it is entirely conceivable that a well-executed plot in broad daylight could result in the kidnapping and ransoming of our top public official—a precedent we do not need to have set. The terrorists’ exorbitant demands were not met; perhaps this can be explained in that the hostages were not quite as crucially important to the nation’s secrutiy. But what if President Carter was kidnapped? Would any and all demands be immediately met? Or, would it never happen at all? The thought is worth .1*01 H®l IRiei) ■» IK Wt> THE OR WTA1T« WKeN m consideration.

Are the alleged terrorists to be held up as exam ples to other would-be terrorists, with capital punishment being the justice meted out (if found guilty), or are those individuals to be held up as one more disgusting example of the perverted form of martyrism that is plaguing America.
