EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD. Wed., March 21, 1962 Page 9A Rotarians Hear Speech Common Market Seen as U.S. Rival The United States must come to grips with i new economic reality the creation of a single block of European countries which in a few years will rival the U. S. as a world leader. Robert L. Allen, associate professor of Economics at the Uni versity of Oregon Tuesday made that declaration before members of the Eugene Rotary Club. The United States no longer can rest secure in its traditional position as an "overwhelming economic power," said Allen. "Whether we like it or not," we must face the fact that this I country is a part of the Euro- New Comet Visible Here A recently-discovered comet will be visible in the skies over Eugene weather permitting (or about the next three weeks. Astronomer E. G. Ebbighau sen, professor of physics at the University of Oregon, said the comet can be seen now, with field glasses or a telescope, in the western sky after sunset. It should become increasing ly brighter, and be visible to the naked eye after April 3, Ebbighausen said. By April 14, its 500,000 mile-an-hour orbit around the sun will be carry ing it away, and it will grow dimmer, he said. The comet was discovered in dependently by an American named Lines and a European named Seki about a month ago, and hence has been named Seki Lines, Ebbighausen said. He said the comet will appear as a fuzzy star and may have a "tail" of light. Around April 3 the comet will be most easily visible di rectly above the setting sun for about a half-hour after sunset, Ebbighausen said.

Summit Talks Slated CAIRO im Reliable sources said Tuesday night the Casablan ca countries will hold a summit meeting in Cairo May 25. The chiefs of state of the United Arab Republic, Morocco, Mali, Guinea and Ghana have not held a formal meeting since the Cas ablanca charter was drawn up in January iei. pean economic structure. "I'm not suggesting," he said, "that the United States join the European Common market" But present trade restrictions must be lowered by this coun try, or the Common market will be forced to erect a similar tariff wall around all of its member states. "Legislation is needed replac ing the Reciprocal Trade Agree ment Act. and which will give the President more power to make across-the-board negotia tions," he said. The United States is facing a crisis brought on by the forma tion of the Common Market, and by three other factors, he said. These factors are: The trend of less developed countries to im port more than they export: too much fluctuation of prices and volumes of many commodi ties, and inflexibility of inter national payments. Allen suggested formation of "some sort of world bank" to assist the less developed nations of the world which are having trouble keeping their imports even with their exports. In ternational deficit spending by the United States must come to an end soon, he said. Yet American leadership still must lead the less developed countries away from ignorance, poverty and disease, he said. Five Bids Opened For Asphalt Soreader Edward L.
