How about

typedef struct Statement
{
     int type;

     union
     {
         PrintStatement  printstatement;
         InputStatement  inputstatement;
         AssignStatement assignstatement;
         GotoStatement   gotostatement;
         IfThenStatement ifthenstatement;
     } statement;

} Statement;

(I didn't see any point in the Cs)
