Cost of overseas visits

Sir, —The horror of the Minister of Defence at the cost of sending our top Army officers overseas for essential training, reveals how naive and inexperienced this so-called socialist Government is in dealing with affairs at home and abroad. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were wasted sending the Prime Minister around the world in an attempt to explain and justify our neurotic, hysterical anti-nuclear stance and succeeding mainly in offending and alienating our best and strongest ally, America. The sinking of the Greenpeace ship and the subsequent legal and continuing political farce have cost us millions and more lost friends. This Government is strong in adolescent idealism, but expensively weak in mature realism.—Yours, etc.,

JAMES J. DUNCAN. January 28, 1986.
