S. JOHNSON MAYOR March 6, 1967 C-V The Honorable U Thant United Nations New York, N. Y. 10008 Sir: You were quoted in the March 5 San Francisco Examiner as having said the following when interviewed in Calcutta on March 4: "The greatest obstacle to solving the Vietnam problem is the lack of trust on both sides (the U. S. and North Vietnam). The situation is very difficult. It is very gloomy. "There is no possibilityjLpf direct negotiations between the United Eg.ti.ons/ and North Vietnam". sr^ We compliment you for your candid statement. We would like to quote you on occasion and would appreciate your verifying the accuracy of this quotation. We question the last paragraph. Did you mean direct negotiations between United Nations and North Vietnam, or between United States and North Vietnam? Sincerely, Wallace John WJrajm 3.0 March 8th, 196? International lbmenrs Bay My very dear U Thantr I am certain I spe:ak for an untold number of women round the word, who would1 "be happy to greet you on this day and thank you for the untiring effort you put forth to end the war in Viet Nam which you have so rightly called, one of the most- barbarous in history. Please accept my greetings and my most profound gratitude; while personal, they are more than gust one woman can feel, they are universal. ¥e are trying to help and we know, how far short we have fallen in being effective. This makes us the more determined to work harder to support you in the almost insuperable task you have consented to continue to carry through a second term of office.Be assured you are in the. minds and hearts of millions of people, espec- ially, I believe,of women whose hearts are touched by your reverence for life and your compassion f r humanity. My organizations, the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom and' Women Strike for Peace are among many organizations that are joining in THE NATIONAL SPRING MOBILIZATION TO END': THE: ¥AH IN VIET NAM. It will be the' greatest peace action in the history of the peace movement in the United States... and significantly it will fercus on the United Nations. People west of the Mississippi River will converge on San Erancisco, at the Opera House where the UN was founded, those east of the Mississippi will come to the headquarters of the world Organization in New York. By so? doing, it is hoped in the words- of David7 Bellinger, vice chairman of the Spring Mobilization, that on AT?HI!H 15 "Everyone will become a part of the effort to stop this war- and awaken to the psychological. reality that it can be stop- ped and" to; the political reality that it will be stopped*" Lueien has doubtless told you we5 have spoken abo-iit having the. Re/verend James BevaZ (Dr. Martin Luther King's associate) who is chairman of the Mobilization, David Dell- inger, and possibly Dr. Benjamin Spock of SANE and Dr King of the Southern Christian Leadershop Conference, to call on you to acquaint you with the plan and, receive your blessing upon it, as. it were. I have been asked to accompany them. Now,. Josephine has told me that you will not be in New York on April I5th, which is indeed a great pity. But we shall have to think of something next best to being welcomed at the United Nations by the Secretary General. To Lueien I mentioned the possibility of having a taped message from you that could be heard over the loudspeaker system by the many thousands of visitors who will gather before the UN. And I also suggested the desirability - and suitability,of having Under Secretary Dr^ Ralph Bunche welcome the people. Lueien will keep me informed. Again, dear U Thant, loving thanks. WE ARE JICW GOING TO RESUME OUR ROLE AMON£ WOMEN Ad Hoc Women's Committee to Celebrate International Woman's Day New York, N. Y. 10003 Co-Chairmen February 27, 1967 Louise Patterson Ruth Gage-Colby Sponsors Dorothy Burnham Dear Alva Buxenbaum Esther Carrol We urge you to sponsor an observance of Clara Colon International Woman's Day this year. We believe that this Ruth Gage-Colby Frances Goldin spring is the time to rise above differences and face the fact Grace Hutchins that where women are concerned there be no East or West, Esther Jackson Black or White, Right or Left. Women are possessed of a Lillian Martinez Clara Bodian Masso cardinal ideology expressed in their day by day dedication to Mildred McAdory life and its ongoing mystery. Women are one in their Elizabeth Moos determination that life shall be good and beautiful for all Louise Patterson people and their children. Viola Brothers Shore Edith Siegel Jessica Smith We women whose country claims to lead the (partial list) "free world" are weary of words that distort the meaning of our national tradition and we seek to join with women everywhere who demand the truth in the conduct of affairs. Embodying this attitude, the celebration of MARCH EIGHTH as an international festival has grown into worldwide propor- tions. Although initiated by an American woman many years ago, women in the United States of America have remained aloof from the celebration of Woman's Day lest we be con- sidered "Leftists" or "Communists'". Let's stop all this nonsense NOW, let's stop the war in Viet Nam NOW, let's get on NOW with building the kind of world where children will never be afraid. Will you lend your name as a sponsor of a meeting to be held in New York on March 19th where we shall pledge to unite with women who put life first? March 8th will be past; but we will be ready for another year. Kindly phone us at WAtkins 4-1081 now to let us know you are with us. Yours in friendship and solidarity, LOUISE PATTERSON RUTH GAGE-COLBY THE OF THE REVEREND JAMES REPORTS: A young, attractive Negro mother, Mrs. Diane Bevel, has the distinction of being the first black woman to interview the heroic President of North Viet Nam, Dr. Ho Chi Minn, in a recent fact-finding trip to Hanoi, Despite the unhappiness of the U.S. State Department, Mrs. Bevel, accompanied by three other woraen, brought back an objective and documentary account which supports the outlook of most independent African and Asian leaders and that of France's President DeGaulle. Upon her return, Mrs, Bevel insisted that her story be printed first in the black press. "Three elderly womrn!

    Fagfellevurdert Årgang 78, Nummer 4, side 545–565, 2020, ISSN 1891-1757, www.tidsskriftet-ip.no, Publisert desember 2020 Nobel-initiativet fra 1966 og den lange linjen i norsk freds- og forsoningsdiplomati Martin Eide Gjesteforsker, Fridthjof Nansens Institutt, Norge Iver B. Neumann Fridtjof Nansens Institutt, Norge Sammendrag Vi har omfattende forskningslitteraturer om hvordan norsk utenrikspoli- tikk på begynnelsen av 1900-årene kretset om fred, og om fremveksten og institusjonaliseringen av norsk freds- og forsoningsdiplomati fra midten av 1980-årene og til i dag. Vår kunnskap om den mellomliggende perioden og røttene til fredsdiplomatiet er mer mangelfull. Artikkelen sammenfatter det vi vet, og den presenterer en tidligere ukjent case fra 1966–1968, det såkalte Nobel-initiativet, der en gruppe norske borgere gikk sammen om å mobilisere nobelprisvinnere med sikte på å etablere en bakkanal for fredssamtaler mel- lom USA og Nord-Vietnam. Samfunnsinitiativet fikk helhjertet oppslutning fra den norske stat. Nobel-initiativet er dermed en forløper for det samarbeidet mellom stat og samfunn som skulle prege norsk freds- og forsoningsdiplomati. Gitt at vi også finner løse forelegg for freds- og forsoningsdiplomati i 1920- årene, gjør kunnskapen om Nobel-initiativet det mulig å påstå at vi gjennom det siste hundreåret konsistent finner norsk freds- og foroningsdiplomati i den utstrekning og den form som de internasjonale forholdene tillater.

  • 1969 Spring Television Quarterly
    TELEVISION VOLUME VIII NUMBER 2 SPRING 1969 QUARTERLY THE JOURNAL OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF TELEVISION ARTS AND SCIENCES Published by The National Academy ofTelevisionArtsandSciencesin cooperation with the School of Public Communication, Boston University THE ONE THING CLEARLY PREDICTABLE FOR 1969 Even in 1968, the most unpredictable of years, it wasa virtual certainty that NBC News would win a flock of important awards. That's just what happened. Programs and personnel of NBC News television and radio garnered many dozens of formal honors from universities, press associations, pub- lications, foundations and the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Such recognition is tremendously gratifying. We're confident it will help inspire the men and women of NBC News to continue their task with energy and dedication- right through 1969. But that's the only prediction we'll venture.

  • These Strange Criminals: an Anthology Of
    ‘THESE STRANGE CRIMINALS’: AN ANTHOLOGY OF PRISON MEMOIRS BY CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS FROM THE GREAT WAR TO THE COLD WAR In many modern wars, there have been those who have chosen not to fight. Be it for religious or moral reasons, some men and women have found no justification for breaking their conscientious objection to vio- lence. In many cases, this objection has lead to severe punishment at the hands of their own governments, usually lengthy prison terms. Peter Brock brings the voices of imprisoned conscientious objectors to the fore in ‘These Strange Criminals.’ This important and thought-provoking anthology consists of thirty prison memoirs by conscientious objectors to military service, drawn from the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, and centring on their jail experiences during the First and Second World Wars and the Cold War. Voices from history – like those of Stephen Hobhouse, Dame Kathleen Lonsdale, Ian Hamilton, Alfred Hassler, and Donald Wetzel – come alive, detailing the impact of prison life and offering unique perspectives on wartime government policies of conscription and imprisonment. Sometimes intensely mov- ing, and often inspiring, these memoirs show that in some cases, indi- vidual conscientious objectors – many well-educated and politically aware – sought to reform the penal system from within either by publicizing its dysfunction or through further resistance to authority. The collection is an essential contribution to our understanding of criminology and the history of pacifism, and represents a valuable addition to prison literature. peter brock is a professor emeritus in the Department of History at the University of Toronto.

Dice el Dr. José Narro Robles, rector de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, en su Plan de Trabajo 2011-2015 Por fortuna la comunidad universitaria no vive sólo de su pasado relevante. Por el contrario, su compromiso es con el futuro. Nuestro mayor interés tiene que ver con los jóvenes y con los niños, con los que ahora estudian e incluso con las generaciones que todavía no nacen. Muchos de nosotros compartimos la preocupación por lo que les vamos a dejar para hacer frente al futuro, a los próximos desafíos. Darles a los jóvenes la oportunidad de participar en un foro y en un ejercicio de simulación, que les permita discutir y profundizar, no solo sus relaciones interpersonales o sus conocimientos, sino profundizar en la toma de conciencia, de la empatía, de la resolución de problemas, en cooperación con un punto común: La cultura de la Paz.
