PAS70R'S REPORT, June 4, 1979
Pcl(JC 9
"To the main themes of the election campaign, nuclear energy, external and
internal security, only he could present believable alternatives."
Rudolf Augstein, der Spiegel's editor, also wrote an accompanying piece
to the Strauss story. He said:
"Whoever loves Strauss, Bavaria, the
country and Europe, can only wish that the Bavarian will run. The popula
tion of the Federal Republic has a right... to finally decide eye to eye
between a liberal Germany and a Germany of prejudices. Either the world
steers without him toward certain oblivion or he knows a recipe we can
trust.
"The CDU has permitted him to
deserve anything else than to
king according to the slogan:
of the slave to whom you give
waste it to such a degree, that it does not
lowly petition him to be a gracious protector
'Oh, Lord, whose lot is as sweet as the one
orders?'"
