MALAYSIA POSITION
Need For Aid Impressed (N.Z.P. A.-Reuter— Copyright) MELBOURNE, July 20. If Malaysia is to be saved it will need a lot more help than it is getting now, according to one of Australia’s leading newspaper proprietors, Sir John Williams. Sir John Williams, managing director of the Herald and Weekly Times Pty., Ltd., publishers of several Australian newspapers, including the “Melbourne Herald” and “Melbourne Sun News-Pic-torial,” has just returned from a tour of South-east Asia. He said there was a tremendous amount of evidence to show that Malaysia deserved to be saved. In an article in today’s “Sun News-Pictorial,” Sir John Williams said:
“In this fight to save Malaysia, I put my view again that the first step is a declaration by the United States that the Indonesian antics must cease.
“We can’t lay all the responsibility on America for defending freedoms in every part of the world. We Australians and British and New Zealanders have a role to play, too, and we should begin it now by putting more arms and forces on the side of Malaysia.
