(Litton ; industries, maker of the navigation equipment said failure of all three systems would be impossible). - Why didn't Japan air control or the U.S. military warn the Korean pilot that he was over Soviet territory? ' - When the Korean pilot reported an incorrect position to Japan ground control and they saw on radar that he was elsewhere, why didn’t they tell him? - Why didn’t the U.S. use the “ Hot Line” or other communica tion to contact the U.S.S.R. and tell them it was a civilian plane? - Why did the Korean plane refuse to respond to attempts to communicate with it and why did it refuse to land? - Why didn't the U.S. play the tape of the entire 2Yi hours that the plane was over Soveit territory to th e U .N ? - Why were the recordings of the Korean pilot not played? - Why didn’t the U.S. play the recording of Japan ground control's communications with the airliner for th e U .N ? The incident, instigated by the U .S., is now being used to launch “ a malicious and hostile anti-Soviet campaign . . . to try and blacken the image of the Soviet Union, to provoke a feeling of hatred toward Soviet people, to present the aims of the foreign policy of the U.S.S.R. in a distorted perspective, and to distract attention from its peace initiatives. “ In a situation when tensions and anti-Soviet hysteria are being whipped up, U.S. leaders whould like to evade the solution of major international problems on which the destinies of the peoples depend. And the moment for this provocation has been chosen purposefully. It has been staged precisely now at a time when the question is being solved whether the arms race will be stopped and the threat of nuclear war removed or this threat will keep growing. All indications are, including the mentioned (Sept. 5) speech of the American President, that the U.S. Administration intends to follow the road of intensifying confronta tion with the Soviet Union.

They believe the arms race must be stopped this year, before U.S. Pershing II and cruise missiles join Soviet SS-20s in Europe and force both sides into a “ launch on warn ing” posture. They have chosen to join the mil lions who hunger daily. 40,000 chil dren under age five die needlessly of malnutrition every day. They could be fed, clothed, and housed for a year on what is spent in less than two weeks on the arms race. They hope to inspire the millions of people in (he world who oppose the arms race to take strong action now. They have asked for people to send 10 letters to world leaders between September 6-9 supporting their call for significant action to ST.
