Page 6 The Haileyburian Thursday, March 10, 1960 Handbook Going to Every- Canadian Home Clarifies True Choice For Free World ~~ TORONTO, March 7 -- In a nation-wide distribution through the Post Office every home in Canada will receive a manifesto which is clarifying for hundreds of millions of people across the world the issues created by the cold war. A handbook, "Ideology and Co-Existence"', prepared by Moral Re-Armament, will this week go to 4,300,000 Canadian homes. Patriotie Canadians de- termined that Canada play her part to put the free world on the ideological offensive have taken this initiative. Canadians will jom the ranks of 18 million families through- out Europe who have already received "Ideology and Co- Existence" which expresses the ideology of the free world in clear terms and presents an answer to Communism. It has - gone to every home in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Ice- land, Holland and Switzerland. Within the next weeks it goes to 40 million homes in Britain, France, West Germany, Italy, Australia and the key areas of Asia, Africa and Latin America. In this handbook are expressed the forthright convictions of world: statesmen such as: Robert Schuman, former Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Prime Minister Diefenbaker; Chancellor Konrad Adenauer; John Riffe, late Ex- ecutive Vice-President of the CIO; US Admiral William. H. Standley; and Dr. Douglas Cor- nell, Executive Officer of the National Academy of Sciences, of France; Washington, D.C. Moscow has attacked '"Ideol- ogy and Co-Existence" in over 100 articles noting that "it is putting an end to the ideological softening up of the free world'. In Switzerland, General Henri Guisan, wartime Commander-in- Chief of the Swiss Army, wrote "Our country follows a non-committal policy in international affairs. On the ideological plane, however, neut- rality can be dangerous, for re- fusal to fight for what is right in a foreword, plays the enemy's game." In Cyprus former EOKA freedom fighters distributed the M booklet by hand to every Greek ; | home. The German Foreign Office ordered: 1200 copies for its offici- als. National distribution will follow. In Holland, "Volkskrant', the official organ of the Prime Min- ister's Catholic Party, stated, "In an age in which statesmen from the West are negotiating with great difficulty with the Kremlin to achieve peaceful co- existence . . . when representa- tives of trade unions and parliaments hurry to Moscow to undergo friendly brainwashing --in this age Moral Re-Arm- ament hoists the storm signal: co-existence is impossible .. . The Catholic community of Holland wholeheartedly sub- scribes to the present call." Seandinavia warranted the all-out attack of Moscow when "Tdeology and Co-Existence" went to 6,700,000 homes in five Nordie languages. Earlier, Pre- mier Khruschev had been forced to cancel his visit to Scandina- via by a group of lexders who had planned a strategy to keep their nations free from total- itarianism. These same men again took the lead to distribute the handbook. It went to every home from the West Coast of Greenland' to Finnish villages on the Russian border and the northernmost town of Norway's Arctic coast to the Danish Ger- man border. On the East Coast of Greenland it reached tiny villages and snow huts by dog- sled. In remote areas it was dropped in postbags from aero- planes. : In Kerala, India, recently freed from a Communist admin- istration, leaders of the libera- tion movement are giving their State a uniting idea. "Ideology and Co-Existence" was- carried in full by twelve main news- papers and will go to a million families. Haileybury personals Mr. and Mrs. J. J.
