man Trade Union Congress, op- posing its right-wing leadership militantly rejected the ‘‘emergen- cy rule laws’’ which actually meant government by military dictatorship.

The extremists in the West Ger- man government lost their heads and moved clumsily against Der Spiegel, an influential magazine that voiced opposition to extrem- ist policy. The government mis- calculated. Instead of silencing opposition to their plans by inti- midating ‘‘dissenters’’ the Spiegel action precipitated an avalanche of popular resistance to the drive toward dictatorial rule.

The resistance included actions by workers in union meetings, bitter mass demonstrations that involved tens of thousands of farmers, hundreds of meetings, protest demonstrations and mar- ches throughout West Germany by intellectuals, particularly uni- versity students and professors.

But the workers, the farmers and intellectuals all marched se- parately, unclear as to what aims to pursue. A force uniting and coordinating the actions of all sections of the population and

setting clear aims before them was lacking. Only a Marxist party could have provided that force. DEMOCRACY WEAK

The decisive weakening of the democratic forces by the outlaw- ing of the Communist Party could be seen clearly when the whole country was on the march in November’ and December, 1962.

Instead of concentrating on de- mands for a real change in po- licy, the fire was concentrated on Strauss, who had become a sym- bol of evil, corruption, govern- ment by intimidation, destruc- tion of civil liberties, and advo- cate of nuclear war.

Strauss fell to public pressure, but his policies of the drive for nuclear arms and rule by emer- gency decrees are continued by his successor, Defense Minister Kai Uwe von Hassel.

But West Germany’s policy has deteriorated too far to be solved by the removal of Strauss and re- tention of his line. Even a section of West German monopoly rea- lizes the old policy is bankrupt and a way out must be found. This is what's behind the fight

within the Christian Democratic Party over leadership and a suc-

cessor to Adenauer.

Adenauer, Strauss, Brentano (foreign secretary, now leader of the CDU), Hoecherl (minister of the interior), Majonika and Krone all think they can still con- tinue to defy reality.

Erhard, Schroeder (foreign secretary) and Gerstenmeier (speaker of parliament), realize at least some kind of new ap- proach must be made.

FIGHT BITTER

Recent events show how bitter the fight has become. Adenauer tried to enlist the coal mono- polies to his aid by circulating the story that Erhard, favoring oil imports, wanted to damage coal interests.

Globke took a hand by feeding the contents of an angry exchange of letters between Erhard and Adenauer to the press. Knowing

that the anti-Adenauer faciion could not burden itself with a Globke, he wanted to damage

the position of Erhard, most like- ly successor to Adenauer.

The anti-Adenauer faction for- ced some concessions — the sign- ing of a trade agreement with Poland and industrialists exert- ing pressure against a ban on delivery of oil pipes to the Soviet Union.

Even Die Welt, which has sup- ported the extremists, recently cautioned against calling a meet- ing of the West German parlia- ment in West Berlin.

In this battle in West Germany, where even some of the monopo- lies are beginning to advocate a saner and more realistic policy, Canada could play a positive role.

For example, Harold Wilson, leader of the British Labor Party and probably the next British prime minister, has backed the strivings for a saner policy in and for West Germany.

He has repeatedly. spoken of the recognition of the GDR as a realistic step, a step in the in- terest of easing world tensions.

Canada could hely swing the seales in favor of the ‘‘sober’’ group in West German policy and serve her own best interests by opening up trade relations with the GDR as the first step toward recognizing what is a fact any- way — the existence of the GDR.

It is the existence and grow- ing strength of the GDR that has been the strongest counter weight against the nuclear and expan- sionist policies of the West Ger- man extremists.

PT Apologizes

In the March 15 issue of the PT’ we reprinted_a box from the magazine, ‘“‘Women of the World,’ headed ‘“Sui- cide Pill For Children” which attributed the proposal to a Professor E. U. Condon, of Washington University, St. Louis, Miss.

We have since been inform- ed that Professor Condon is a former head of the U.S. Na- tional Bureau of Standards who was forced out of the government for advocating a

bomb test ban, peace and friendship with the Soviet Union.

He wrote a satirical piece for The Nation in which he ironically proposed a pill for children he named DIGIG- GLIN.

We apologize to Professor Condon and his American friends for the error. .
