Since our contribution to last week's Pastor's Report concerning the accelerating decline of American power and prestige, additional information on this topic has been flooding in. Underscoring the importance of this trend, Business Week, in its March 12, 1979 issue, devoted a 30-page special section to it. Rather than excerpt here the significant parts from the BW story and other leading sources, I felt it would be best to construct a more thorough "News Report" on the entire subject. We're working on it now, and hope to have it in your hands shortly, perhaps along with next week's Pastor's Report.
