The Zionist rulers of Israel have aroused the resolute condemna- tion of international public opi- nion by their ‘wars of conquest and aggressive attacks against their Arab neighbors. At the same time they tried to present themselves in the role of, if not “friendly” then at least “loyal”, ' partners of a number of African countries. An ever - increasing number of facts expose this myth, however. The racist, reac- tionary and aggressive nature of both regimes is what lies at the pase of their growing “spiritual and physical” proximity. The mutual exchange of mili- tary supplies is a tangible em- bodiment of this kinship. Both for Israel, which occupied exten- sive Arab territories, and for South Africa, in its repression of the native African population, the main suppliers of war mate- riel remain the NATO countries. But the imperialist powers also help Israel and South Africa to create their own arms produc- tion. It is also noteworthy that South Africa renders Israel con- * siderable financial aid. Thus the “understanding and sympathy” between the two re- gimes, of which the head of the South Africa racists Vorster spoke recently, is materializing. Resting on imperialist props, the Tel Aviv-Pretoria axis is a real threat to the interests and secur- ity of the peoples of Africa and the Middle East. FOR MOLDAVIA’S TOURISTS An extensive building pro- gram for hotels, motels and camp sites is under way in Mol- davia, picturesque republic in 4 Bomb shelters _used in Mao's wor of nerves By EDWARD ROSENTHAL GENEVA (APN) — It happen- ed in the evening, to be more precise at 10 p.m..{Peking time). Swiss journalists»who were on a visit to the People’s Republic of China were unexpectedly in- formed that in 40 minutes ex- actly they would be received by Chou En-lai, the head of the government. The pressmen were somewhat surprised, especially as they had not asked him to receive them. Therefore they figured that they would be informed of something extremely interesting, maybe even of a decision to accredit a permanent Swiss correspondent in Peking. But the topic was of another sort. At first they were told of _ frontier conflicts of 1969 on the Ussuri River, for which the blame was shifted on the Soviet Union. Then the Premier of the People’s Republic of China spoke of the formation of Bangladesh as nothing else but a new threat to China. Next, Chou En-lai complain- ed that although China would be glad to remove tensions in frontier areas, the Soviet side is too unyielding at the talks. That is why, Chou En-lai con- cluded with a sigh, China “has to prepare itself for a long jour- ney.” He immediately decipher- ed this oriental beauty of style: China can station one million soldiers on the USSR border. (“We do not want war, but if the aggressor invades our terri- tory he will not return alive.’’) Of course, Chou En-lai under- stood that the newsmen whom he told such “interesting” sto- ries were sceptics and expected proofs. He himself raised the problem. of proofs, stating that the journalists should not take everything he said for granted and that they “should check the prime minister’s arguments themselves.” Two days later the pressmen were invited to a big ready- made clothing shop in the cen- tre of Peking. They were led through the store with the ‘ready-made clothes and taken to the other side, there they were shown a steep staircase. Down- stairs they were taken for a long time round an intricate under- ground labyrinth (eight metres deep and two kilometres long), where, as it was found out, 10,000 people can take cover. They were also told that in other Chinese cities similar labyrinths are being built and that it is planned to dig 3,000 kilometres of underground pas- sages. The project, they were told, is intended to provide cover for the population when Soviet heavy bombers start to drop hydrogen bombs on the peaceful Chinese. Is this not proof? Then they were shown shoot- ing practice of the 176th Infan- try Division which is preparing itself for future defensive bat- tles. Another proof. But is this not rather proof of the complete absence of com- mon sense? All this can be read in the Zurich newspaper Tages An- zeiger of Oct. 16. The author of the article is Swiss journalist Peter Frey, one of the members of the delegation which visited China. vit SORTA NSS 3 + he West Berlin populace hails pact with GDR By HEINZ DAHLKE WEST BERLIN — On the eve of the 3rd Congress of the Socialist Unity Party (SEW) dis- trict conferences are electing delegates in a confident, critical and self-critical atmosphere. Some district organizations have increased their membership by 25%. The 25-year fight of West Ber- lin’s Communists also shows in the signing in the Senate of West Berlin of the agreement with the German Democratic Republic. The SEW has always pointed out that the political, economic and military growth of the USSR, GDR and other social- ist countries, and their struggle for peaceful co-existence made for a more secure peace in Europe. The agreements between West Berlin and the GDR signify a defeat for the Christian Demo- cratic Union (CDU) and aggres- sive sections of monopoly, un- fortunately supported by right- wing forces in the Social Demo- cratic Party (SPD). During the pre-Congress cam- paign, many workers and young people visited the SEW offices, and took part in -its activities, quite a number became mem- . bers. A great part of the working class feels the general crisis of capitalism nowadays more than for many years. Monopolies eli- minated 47,000 jobs in the past 11 years. Most workers laid off cannot find work for which they are qualified. Prices go up more than 5% a year — and profits go up at the same time. It is not suprising that on May 1 this year, 70,000 workers and students demonstrated through the streets of the working-class districts of West Berlin against rising prices and rents, for more say in management, demo- cratic reform of the school sys- tem and for ratification of the agreements with, and acknowl- edgement of, the GDR. They also demonstrated, Communists and Social. Democrats together, against the revanchist policies of the CDU. The stand of the SEW is for unity in action to battle the monopolies and their first party, the CDU. This does not mean an armistice with the Social’ Democrats, but rather criticism and debate while working for united action.” Sausage brine pollutes no more BERLIN (ADN) — Banishing the harmful effects of sausage ‘brine on rivers and lakes was the unusual subject of a diplo- ma thesis recently written by an engineer of the German De- mocratic Republic. His findings resulted in an official decree compelling all meat processing plants to cut off excegs fat. _ The fat retained in filters is turned into soap. The brine left over from sausage making is channeled through a filterbed and can no longer pollute rivers and lakes. Keeping waters clean is one of the major tasks of environ- mental control in the GDR, and 137 million marks -were spent on this project in 1971. PRAGUE — With the begin- ning of the new school term in September teachers’ salaries in Czechoslovakia increased 10%. Eighty seven mountain climbers from the 15 republics of the Soviet Union and from other socialist countries made an ascent of the Peak of Communism (7,495 metres), the highest in the USSR, situated in the Pamir mountains (Central Asia). The ascent was dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the USSR to be marked on December 30, 1972. Russians ‘and Bulgars, Turkmenians and Hungarians, Tajiks and Poles, Czechs and Armenians, Kirghiz and Ger- mans, Estonians and Rumanians, Yugoslavs and Mongols stormed the summit shoulder to shoulder. Flags of the USSR, of all Union republics, Bulgaria, Hungary, the GDR, Poland, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and Mongolia were hoisted on the highest point of the Soviet Union. The ascent which lasted seven days symbolized the friendship and unity of fraternal peoples building socialism and communism. tik ec RR ER ee PACIFIC TRIBUNE—FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1972—PAGEQ.
