‘RATHER LIKE A BLANK CHEQUE’
(N.Z. Press Assn. — Copyright) SYDNEY, July 21. The new Archbishopelect of Sydney, the Most Rev. M. L. Loane, said yesterday that the Australian Prime Minister’s policy on Vietnam, of “all the way with L.8.J.” was rather like a blank cheque. “I don’t like blank cheques,” Bishop Loane added. The 54-year-old Anglican leader was speaking at his home after his election early today as Sydney’s first Austra-lian-born Archbishop. “The situation in Vietnam has become much graver even in the last three months,” he said. “It has become very disturbing to everyone who looks on from outside to see the civil strife and instability in South Vietnam, the decision lof the United States to bomb Hanoi, and the determination of North Vietnam to pursue the war in the manner we have heard in the last few days. “It makes one wonder what [the end of the road can be."
