CANADIANS HAIL KENNEDY ON STATE VISIT:
On his first visit to a foreign nation since he assumed the Presidency, Mr. Kennedy arrives in Ottawa on a visit of State. Greeted by Governor-General George P.

He appeals to Canada to join the Organization of American States, of which Canada is not now a member. Without mentioning Cuba, he called for closer Canada-U.S. unity. He says that while geography has made us neighbors, necessity makes us allies.
