U.N.E.S.C.O.’s
delegates’ interviews
Sir, .— The .effect of the very valid comments made by;H. C. Brewerton (July 12) that “our Ministry of; Foreign ./Affairs -and/or its bosses must fear, that the reading and listening public cannot see communist propaganda for what it is, or that the : communists would give us yet another example on which to sharpen our minds against all propaganda,” is somewhat vitiated by his.- describing the remarks made in 1 the interview by Dr Ratebzad, Afghanistan’s’' Minister Education (“The Press,” July 9) as “the typical, self-con-tradictory, totalitarian'' clap-' trap.” H. C. Brewerton
makes it depressingly plain that having read what he is pleased to call “communist propaganda,” his mind, lamentably, . has not been “sharpened against all propaganda,” specifically, our own. — Yours, etc., M. CREEL. • July 12, 1980.
