Jews in Germany, yet man's inhuman- ity to man continues unchecked' in many areas. Because totalitarian governments seem to have the right . to do as they please, little is heard about the atrocities committed, by the military: repine in Brazil,, for example. Yet occasionally, from. Mexico and the United States, one hears well documented accounts of men, women and even children being tortured:' and killed by the Brazilian ' authorities because they disagree with the : way the country. is being run. . #.. - Electric shock. torture, 'children. being multiated befo er the very eyes .of their helpless • parents,: dissident priests being terrorized and murdered are common occurrences in Brazil -- whose brutal regime gets more :U.S. aid than any other country with the exception ..of Vietnam and: India: According to Christian churchmen, the Brazilian regime tortures then re ffective-meth ubduing=the-entire= population to its will. Similar . tales of . torture come from Iraq, where scores of so- called traitors 'have been hanged and shot, in public'ever'since last. year, an here -opponents to the. 'junta -in -Athens have given detailed descriptions .of atrocities' some of them'. involving even pregnant women. The .regimes in . Grpece and. Brazil are so-called allies of ° the West, though. fortunately Greece has been pushed out of the Council of Europe because of its treatment of intellectuals ; and politicalop- ponents. Nobody` is supposed to interfere becauseeven` torture. 'is, said to he_the internal_affair of each_particular_nation_But _the United Nations, the Organization of American States'and' all the world's churches should raise their voices much more loudly against the monstrous acts of these military; regimes.' For if the West has to depend on allies who walk in Hitler's shadow, such friends in time, can become' only 'a;'liability. y _ Unchurched Editorials .F WEDNESDAY, MA .Y, 20th;1970 FORU Noble Thoughts ands Nicholls' Notions • MAN AND MACHINE Sog reat hasbeen the emphasis of our generation on machines that' many people have become like them.
