and on all the candidates of
political parties to pledge
that Canada will refuse to
accept nuclear weapons or
make them available for the
Canadian armed forces and
that as a first step the Bo-

“The renewal of U.S. nuc-

it lies in pursuing an inde-

1,000 picket Un-Americans [ July disarmament

meet wins support

Widespread prepara-
tions are underway
throughout the world for
the World Congress on Un-
iversal Disarmament and
Peace, opening in Moscow
in July.

A committee for co-opera-
tion in preparing and con-
ducting this congress has
been set up in the Soviet
Union. Considerable work is
being done by the Peace Com-
mittee of the socialist coun-
tries, which will shortly pro-
mote national conferences
dedicated to the problems of
universal disarmament and
peace.

Increasingly broad prepar-
ations for the World Con-
gress are also being made in
the capitalist countries, where
the national peace commit-
tees have advanced the issue
of disarmament for public

discussion.
A Disarmament Week, pro-

‘moted by the British Peace

Committee, has just ended
with mass rallies and demon-
strations in defence of peace
being held in Manchester,
Glasgow and Leeds.

National congresses and
conferences of peace support-
ers will take place on all
continents, and many coun-
tries will hold a Disarmament
Day.

Large assemblies of peace
supporters are to be conven-
ed in Italy, Cuba, New Zea-
land, Burma, Iraq, Ecuador
and many other countries.

Support for the congress
has been expressed by the
World Federation of Demo-
cratic Youth, International
Association of Democratic
Lawyers, and United Work-
ers’ Centre of Chile as well
as by prominent public lead-
ers and peace champions of
different countries.

The rising tempo of peace
activity was swelled last
week when Ghana’s Presi-
dent Kwame Nkrumah ap-
pealed to the U.S. government
to stop its tests. His note
warned that the survival of
the human race was threat-
ened.

Dr. Nkrumah also cabled
Bertrand Russell that “new
and bold steps must be taken
in order to arouse the con-
science of mankind.”

May 4, 1962—PACIFIC TRIBUNE

| COMMONWEALTH
‘COUNTRIES MEET

ON SEPT. 10

Prime Minister Macmillan
of Britain announced last
week that a Commonwealth
prime ministers’ conference
will. be held in London be-
ginning Sept. 10 mainly to
discuss Britain’s entry into
the European Common Mar-
ket.

Macmillan sought to allay
fears expressed by various
Commonwealth members
that Britain’s entry into the
six-nation common. tariff
trading bloc would result in
dissolution of the Common-
wealth and its traditional
trading pattern. He said:

‘If the (British) govern-
ment has to choose between
the two, if an absolute. divi-
sion has to take place, we
will choose to remain with
the Commonwealth.”

Date of Britain’s entry
into the ECM has_ been
scheduled for next Jan. 1.

The Communist Party has
declared that Britain’s entry
into the ECM faces Canada
with the need to swing away
from old trading patterns and
launch out into new markets
in the socialist and newly
independent countries.
