Notes and topics

Le Gal is General Secretary of the World Federation of Democratic Youth (WFDY).

Le Gal informs BR of the Federation's "deep astonishment and regret in finding the representative of the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation associating himself in a calculated calumny against the WFDY, launched during the conference by certain foreign participants. The conference in question was the 12th World Conference Against A and H Bombs. The conference was held in Japan 28 July - 20 August 1966. The BRPF representative was Faris Glubb (misspelt as "Clubb").

Enclosed is a statement signed by the BRPF representative at the conference. The statement is a two-page TS(TC), and is document .179033. The full title reads: "Statement of Delegates Who Withdrew from the 12th World Conference Against Atomic and Hydrogen Bombs". In addition to the BRPF, representatives from the following countries signed the statement: Australia, Basutoland, Bechuanaland, Belgium, Brazil, Ceylon, Colombia, Malaya, New Zealand, Panama, Philippines, Sudan, Swaziland, U.S.A., and South West Africa.
