and infiltrators'. Civilized world is not only shocked but have lost words to express condemnation of such in paralleled barbarism.
Our task is tremendous at this moment. We have to realize once for all that we cannot stay as a colony of West Pakistan any more. Therefore, we have to continue our fight until! we win. We have to inform American people by organizing seminars, teaching, fund collection drive, demonstrations, rally etc. to mobilize public opinion so that US Government stops military and economic aid to the West Pakistani based Yahya Government. We have to urge American people to send telegrams, letters and memoranda to their leaders and representatives to move in positive direction- in favor of our people and the cause of Bangladesh. We have to watch the false propaganda of Pakistan Embassy and Islamabad and counter with truth. Bangladesh liberation army is more organized today. Number of volunteers are increasing daily in thousands. training centers are coming up more in numbers and these are better equipped today. Commander- in-Chief of Bangladesh army General Osmani has predicted. The Country will be cleared of the occupation forces within 14 to 18 months’.
Surely victory is ours!
One of our freedom fighters who was known to all Bengalis Mr. Dewan Mahbub Ali suddenly expired while attending a political conference in Budapest this month (Inna Lillah.. .). We extend our heartfelt condolence to his family. Nation has lost a gallant fighter and an esteemed political leader whose replacement is hard to come in long time.

TALE OF PERSECUTION FROM AN EYE-WITNESS VOICE
An American who recently travelled from Dacca to Jessore via Barisal and Khulna narrated his accounts of army brutalities Barisal, in the following recorded voice, wherever 1 went, the mark of army brutalitics is distinctly clear. In Barisal town, an estimated 15 to 20 people are being killed every day on the grounds of being Hindu and on the suspect of being a member of Awami League. Student and youth any one can listen the death cry just sharp at 1 O'clock in the afternoon ... amnesty is usually declared to call people to be killed .... villages after villages are burned out and the process is still continuing ... despite army brutalities the liberation forces are successfully completing their missions ... Government claim of normalcy is just a mockery........’
