South-east Asia
Sir,—The people of New Zealand would do well to consider, before it is too late, the direction fr* which outside intenets are subtly steering us. Tiny New Zealand can do nothing to halt the democratic aspirations of hundreds of millions of people in Asia, not to mention the 80 million in the Arab world. When order emerges we will want trading friends, not enemies And Senator Morse says: “The greatest threat to the peace of the world islhe United States.
We are headed for a major war in which thousands of American' boys will die. We will be hated for 500 years and we will be known as the nation that was chiefly responsible for scuttling the United Nations.” There is a noticeable lack of enthusiasm in this country for being the stooge for overseas financial tycoons which the authorities would do well to heed. No-one threatens New Zealand; so why threaten others demanding their rights?—Yours, etc., W. J. COLLINS. June 29, 1964.
