Toronto, sept. 14.
Dr. Linus Pauling, an American Nobel prize winner, said last night the United States had prevented the South Vietnamese from choosing the Government they wanted in 1954 and now was attacking a poverty-stricken people with the most modern weapons.
Speaking at a dinner given by Toronto’s First Unitarian congregation, he said the use of tear gas, such as used by an American soldier to force into the open Vietnamese civilians hiding in a tunnel, could be dangerous and even fatal to children and ill persons.
He said there was increasing talk in U.S. military circles of future use of germ warfare and he called for early adoption of an international treaty for open laboratories.
