A NOTE ABOUT THE COUNCIL
Th e National Council for Can adi an -Soviet Fri endship believes that bett er understanding
between Canada and the other \Vestern democratic countries on the one
side and the Soviet Union on the other is essentia l to the prese rva tion of world peace.
Working toward this objective, the Council publishes a mon thly bulletin giving
information about life in the Soviet Union, holds public meetings, pub lishes pamph lets
such as this, stim ulates similar ac tivity in towns and cities across Canada, ac ts as a
reference centre on matt ers pert aini ng lo Soviet cu lture, enco urages inte rcha nge of
cultural material, spea ks out aga inst the anti -Sovie t, war propaganda emanati ng from
cert ain circles of our Government , encourages the formation of study groups on such
topics as Soviet art, music , education, health, agriculture, etc., and prov ides material
for study.
Th e Council is non-political, drawing its membership and support from among
the great numbers of Can adi ans who see in the prospect of anothe r war, the deathknell
of their own future and that of their children.
Operating with the grea test economy, an annua l bud get of about $10,000 is
requ ired in ord er to provide Ca nad ians with fac ls to be used against the barrage of
anti-soviet , pro-war pr opagand a.

government grants and no subsidies.
