ference, has virtually acceptea tne Moscow theory of American aggres-

sion. =

It is also significant, however, that while Moscow protested U.S. action in the area, when Chinese and Viet- namese students in Moscow stormed the American Embassy the Kremlin sent regular army troops to reinforce the police in suppressing the distur- bance. It was said to be the first time the Red Army has..been used for such purposes. This happened at a time when Moscow was playing host to an international gathering of the Communist clans, and while Peking was charging that Moscow's behaviour about the Viet Nam affair represented softness and capitulation

to Washington.

It is hard to fit these pieces into any coherent pattern. Meanwhile, | fortunately, there seems to be a lull | in the fighting which broke out last month. While Communist attacks are still reported, there has been no repetition of the blows against Amer- ican forces which brought U.S.'bomb- |

ing,of North Viet Nam. Pension Plan Angles

The full-length debate which the Canada Pensidn Plan is receiving in the House of Commons may be an- noying to the Government which is anxious to dispose of the measure as speedily as possible, but it is serving

a good purpose in throwing light on some of the more obscure clauses of

the bill, of which the public had

little or no conception.

Clause 26, for example, at which

the Conservatives have been -ham- mering, and which would enable rev-

enue department Officials to enter

any place to “examine any property, including any books, records, writ- ings or other documents.” _~

The new Minister of Revenue, Mr. Benson, argued that this section has less force than similar provisions

in the Income Tax Act, which he ad-

ministers. If that be so, perhaps it is time that the Opposition took a

fresh look at that act, too. In any

- legislation, and it is well that the pub- lic should be alerted as to its impli-

cations before it becomes law.

Dr. Walter Hallstein, perma- nent head of the Bonn foreign office, evolved what came to be

The Hallstein doctrine now has been shown to have a dou- ble edge. Bonn can put pres- sure on countries which want to recognize Ulbricht, but they. in turn, can put pressure on Bonn

‘by threatening that recognition.
