WORLD UNION FOR PROTECTION OF LIFE

a President of the South Easi Asia and Oceanic Region

i Harry F. Kurth, 62 Garden Street, Narrabeen North,
Sydney, N.S,W., 2101, Australia.

8th April 1972
Dear Sir, Sirs, Madam,

In her book “SAY NO" Ruth Adams writes:
“IT'S LONELY FIGHTING OUT THERE. IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THERE ARE OTHERS
ON THE FIRING LINE."

For over 2 years we have tried to ward off the dangers connected
with the building of the Atomic Reactor at Jervis Bay, only about 130 miles from Sydney.
Shortage of money, not reason, stopped the project last year and having already spent
$ 170 Mill on roads and foundations , the "Atom - Pushers" are working behind the scenes
in our Capital Canberra to bring the blessing of “clean" power to Aus‘ Talda. They are
also talking about Uranium Enrichment Plants to squander in 1 or 2 decades our Uranium
resources, France, Japan and whoever wants to pay the price will help in this waste.

The picture of the Atom merchants is a brillant one and after all
Australia will not want to be known as a "Banana Country”.

The lonely voice of warning about radiation is hardly perceptible
and yet we are fighting on. “Ecology Action" is interested, so is “Society for
Responsibility in Science”.

Unfortunately often local issues like Sandmining or Airports at
the "wrong" setting are taking the Limelight.

As “World Union" understands the problems of our time, priority
should be given to the dangers inherent in the production of Atomic Energy, especially
here in Australia, where we are still free of this powerful and insid4ous pollutant.

We need your help, please give us all scientific information you
can possibly muster against the building of the first reactor in Australia. 1972 is
election year in Australia and we want to bring all relevant facts to the notice of
electors and those to be elected.

For a prompt reply I will be grateful on behalf of "World Union"
and mankind. With best wishes —

WORLD UNION
