Confrontation/nn-hl 
It/pps seems/vbz to/in me/ppo that/cs N.C./np ,/, in/in his/pp$ editorial/nn ``/`` Confrontation/nn-tl ''/'' (/( SR/nn ,/, Mar./np 25/cd )/) ,/, has/hvz hit/vbn upon/in the/at real/jj problem/nn that/wps bothers/vbz all/abn of/in us/ppo in/in a/at complex/jj world/nn :/: how/wrb do/do we/ppss retain/vb our/pp$ personal/jj relationship/nn with/in those/dts who/wps suffer/vb ?/. ?/.
This/dt affects/vbz us/ppo all/abn intimately/rb ,/, and/cc can/md leave/vb us/ppo hopeless/jj in/in the/at face/nn of/in widespread/jj distress/nn ./.
I/ppss know/vb of/in no/at other/ap solution/nn than/cs the/at one/cd N.C./np proposes/vbz --/-- to/to do/do what/wdt we/ppss can/md for/in each/dt sufferer/nn as/cs he/pps confronts/vbz us/ppo ,/, hoping/vbg that/cs this/dt will/nn spread/vb beyond/in him/ppo to/in others/nns at/in some/dti time/nn and/cc some/dti place/nn ./.

I/ppss would/md hope/vb that/cs Sargent/np Shriver/np will/md encourage/vb everyone/pn entering/vbg the/at Peace/nn-tl Corps/nn-tl to/to read/vb it/ppo ./.
The/at important/jj people/nns to/in humanity/nn are/ber not/* the/at Khrushchevs/nps and/cc the/at Castros/nps but/cc the/at Schweitzers/nps and/cc the/at Dooleys/nps ,/, and/cc the/at others/nns like/cs them/ppo whose/wp$ names/nns we/ppss will/md never/rb know/vb ./.
