Vietnam Orphans’ Treat
Sir, —In Saturday's paper there appeared a photograph of a New Zealand artilleryman surrounded by Vietnamese children. The caption did not say how many sisters and brothers of the children had been killed by the shells he placed in the guns he had
been using- This terrific form of hypocrisy can only be equated with the “double think” process that goes on among people who support the United States troops in the country of Vietnam. It is sheer pragmatism of the worst sprt, and an attempt to rationalise every action, even murder.—Yours, etc., P.J.A. September 12, 1966,
