Since his recent legal services program victory. Don Rumsfeld has continued to exercise great courage in protecting the program from political interference. Late last year he overrode strong gubernatorial opposition to the legal services program. Moreover. he has refunded at a higher level his most controversial legal services programsthe North Mississippi Legal Services. the South Florida Migrant Legal Services. the California Rural Legal Services. and the D.N.A.-Navajo Legal Services. Despite intense local political opposition. Don Rumsfeld approved and caused the removal of the OEOfinanced Chicago Legal Aid Bureau from the strangling control of its old sponsor. thereby increasing its effectiveness.
