The thinking of world leaders sometimes puzzles the mind and the recent upsurge of the' war in Vietnam 'brought the whole sickening situation back to the front pages of the newspapers and onto the TV screens. We listened to, and read comments recently by military and political leaders of the United States, including the president, who were concerned about the fact that the •Soviet Union was supplying North Vietnam with weapons and war machinery. They aCcused the. Soviets of Withering the war in-ViethtiM. _,-Strange talk coming from, a country which not only supplies the war machinery for the South, but the manpower and military leader- ship to make it go. Comments on Russian interference make absolutely no sense to friends of the United .States. We can only' imagine how they must look to enemies. The Ameritan aiilitarrleader, in -Charge of the South Vietnam fighting force; was interviewed last week and asked if he was hopeful of driving 'die North Vietnamese back across the Cambodian border. Hee---vet7 emphatically answered in the negative, and stated that they intended to "kill them all before they got there." We suppose this is the whole purpose of the exercise, but it does leave some pretty sobering thoughts in the minds of those who care to think about it. • "'pi) • 1.111P111M111111111i1:i11111111111111111111111111111101111!11011111!IIIIINIIII PUBLICITY LACKING Has the New Democratic party in Bruce.
