R.B. Bryce, PCO. DB"ment 1PA B veRoss/PiUr ^acc^s a l'inf°rmation AND CONFIDENTIAL 50/6-6 -*6' f * Ottawa, March 12, 1963 Dear George: As you will be aware from our telegrams DL-258 of February 22 and DL-316 of March 12, 1963, the postponement of Exercise "Civlog" to the spring of 1965 has not been well received here. Attached is a copy of a memorandum from Mr. Bryce, upon which our telegram DL-316 was based. I am writing to you personally regarding Mr. Bryce’s suggestion that we should express "concern at this further evidence of the lack of seriousness in the approach to civilian planning in NATO" because we were doubtful that an approach below the Secretary-General level would be useful. Mr. Cippico and others of the International Staff concerned with civil emergency planning are, no doubt, all too aware of the relative weight given to the military and civilian sides of NATO. There is not too much that they can be expected to do to.alter the situation, and to suggest a lack of seriousness may serve only to annoy them. In the light of the past history of efforts that have been made by Canadian representatives to have NATO place a greater emphasis on its civil emergency planning, we would prefer to leave to your Judgement the manner in which you bring to the Secretary-General’s attention, when a suitable opportunity arises, the views which are so strongly held by Mr. Bryce and others concerned with civil emergency planning here. Yours sincerely. Ross CAMPBELL Ross Campbell G.
