Wiggins, Vancouver, writes: Below is a copy of a letter I am mailing today to the Vancouver Sun. Perhaps it will help some Tribune readers get their bearings on the Czechos- lovakia affair too. I-assure you I have the clippings mentioned. Sir: It should add somewhat to public understanding of the Czechoslovakia-USSR conflict if the Sun would again publish an item which appeared in your pages on Sept. 19, 1953. The reporter, Sefton Delmer of the London Daily Express, described a large poster he had seen in Berlin which ran: ‘‘This oath I swear on behalf of the German people: We shall not rest or recline until the whole of Germany is once more united in freedom and peace.”’ — Kon- rad Adenauer. Or do you recall the bitter words of another German, Dr. Grueber, Dean of the Berlin Cathedral, which you published Feb. 25, 1959: ‘‘We Germans understood that you were to re- - educate us. Instead you re-arm us. Did you suppose you need to instruct us in militarism? Do you believe that the soul of Nazism is dead? We are on the edge of a very shady deal, gentlemen — you provide the rockets; we provide the Hitler spirit’. The passing years have brought a hardening of that Hitler spirit in Bonn, along with overt approval of that spirit in Washington and some other capitals; and a great ‘We buy and sell oie i Used Furniture Sporting Goods We are Reasonable We are at 573 E.

In 1964 the chief officer of West Germany’s Luftwaffe, Lt. Gen. Werner Panitzki, was quoted in your valuable paper as saying that the selective use of nuclear weapons must begin ‘‘at a very early stage’ in any conflict in . Central Europe. ‘“‘We are sure that the war-heads would be made available to us (by the USA) in time of need. But we do think we ought to have a greater right of co-determination of western strategy; that is, over the what, when and how of nuclear strikes’. In view of the above, is it not possible, even likely, that the USSR by its actions in Czechos- lovakia last August and since, has been doing the whole world a great favor by foiling the designs of the bonn revanchists? It really is something to think about. We really are on the edge of a very shady deal. 757 East Hastings St. GLOBE during the Christmas season. Book early! 2679 E. Hastings St. Vancouver 6, B.C.

Medical Care Insurance Plan. This plan provided universal coverage for all citizens of Saskatchewan. However, the Provincial Government a few months ago amended the Saskatchewan Medical Care Insurance Act to provide deterent fees. And the effect of this amendment is to prevent many of the sick, as well as most of the old, the poor, the unemployed and the under privileged in all corners of the province from receiving the medical care to which on any moral or humanitarian grounds they should be entitled. The imposition of deterrent fees violates the Saskatoon Agreement reached by the provincial government and the doctors six years ago. In fact deterrent fees destroy the principle of universal accessi- bility of medical care. Until deterrent fees were introduced the medical care plan served the total population. Now it has been _ converted into a plan which looks after only those people who are well off. Is this to be part of the much talked about “just society” just for the rich? We should organize to see that | deterrent fees are repealed. Unless and until those deterrent fees are repealed all those who support a universally accessible medical care program must unite. We must elect a govern- ment here that will restore the medical plan of July 1962. ‘Woman's place is in the cave.” 1) Soviet Army Today 2) Great October 7) Ideology Of Hatred 10) Fifty Glorious Years 12) The World Accuses book No. z re) 3 ® Address the Pacific Tribune.
