Last November 17, mmen of all ages and professions gathered at the Pentagon to "mourn and rage and defy . . .the workplace of the imperial power which threatens

us all" .

They had congregated to condemn the work

carried on by the Pamtagon: "...they have been making 3—6 nuclear bombs every day. They have accumulated over 30,000. They have invented the neutron bomb which kills people but leaves buildings intact. . .'Ihey have just appropriated 20 million dollars to revive the cruel old killer nerve gas. 'Ihey have proclaimed Directive 59 which asks for 'small nuclear wars, pro-

lives" .

International Women's Year was in 1979. It received a massive buildup, and perhaps increased awareness for the time being, but who remembers what was accomplished two years ago?

Dear Editor: I am shocked, appalled and every other word I can

think of including heartily

disgusted at the attitude of the media of P.E.I. for refusing to cover and give attention to a Mr. Padraig Malone who came all the way from Ireland to speak on behalf of a Human Rights

Issue in his country, namely,

the inhumane treatment of prisoners in H—Block prison.

We, as Canadians, value our freedom of the press and fail to realize that Canada does not have any protection against censorship by our own

Dear Sir/Madam:

The Foreign & Domestic Teachers Organization needs} teacher applicants in all fields from Kindergarten through College to fill over five hundred teaching vacancies both at hate and abroad. ‘

Since 1968, our organization has been finding vacancies and locating teachers both in foreign countries and in all fifty States. We possess hundreds of current openings and have all the information as to scholar- ships, grants, and fellow- ships. 'I'he principle problem with first year teachers is where \to find the jobs!

Our information and brochure is free and comes at an opportune time when there are more teachers teachers tahn teaching , positions.

reporters. After all these years of believing in the integrity of the news reporters for providing information to the public. ‘ I almost want to sit down and cry at the treatment meted out to a Human Rights Suppprter. .

I cannot think of anything more disgusting than that instead of writing about hmman rights and maybe helping men and women to understand the Irish problem, they prefer to write about the senseless slaughter of baby. Seals.

History books have not been reWritten as promised to ~ showthe important role thatwomenhaveplayedinour past. Children are still learningvthat man hasbeen responsible for history. Que can very easily become disturbed when looking at the increasing number of jiggle" shows that are shown on television or in the cinemas. According to the persons who determine what our minds will absorb for the coming menths, "Mary Tyler Moore" would never be aired for the first time now in 1981 because it lacks the basic ingredients

. of exposure and overt sexual innuendo. '

International Year's of anything are, in thewords of a wise friend of mine, "nothing but a pile of crap to ease the consciences of socially-minded 2

people".

Recognition for twelve months and perhaps

a few minor concessions on the part of society are ' the end—result of years of preparation and billions

of dollars .'

so, perhaps, we should join our

sisters in their

plea for "an end to the arms race. No more bombs. No more amazing inventions for dea " . /
