Mrs. Rene Verdicr, a Paris
housewife, went shopping and

Thi reasons behind this
haDDv experience remained a
little vague in Mrs. Verdicr's
mind. But it occurred in
large Paris department store

niinrdi proclaimed "La
France et le March Commun'
(France and the Common Mar

Her savings came on an

Holland and a $4 brief

husband.
In 1958, the sweater set
would have cost $14, the
blouse $5 and the briefcase
$7.
The key to this lesson in
thrift came in the placard,
"France and the Common
Market."
Roger Coullard, a 55-year-old
pharmacist, had a similar
experience.
Coullard, shopping for a
automobile, bought a German
compact car.
"It's simple," he said. "The
quality is about the same.
I've always wanted to try
one, and it was a good bar
gain." He figured he had saved
about $50 over the price of a
comparable French car.

Pakistan Campaigns
Against Kidnapers
Of Young Children
Karachi -IUPII- Pakistan has
begun a drive against bands
of kidnapers who maim young
children, make beggars out
of them, and force them to
turn over the money they
collect.
The government also hopes
to eliminate another activity
of the child stcalcrs-kidnap-ing
girls and selling them as
prostitutes or as slaves in the
Middle East.
A voluntary organization
which traces lost children is
cooperating with government
agencies in the drive. An offi
cial of the agency, which is
called Idara - E Khidmat E
Khalq, said 16 boys and girls
ranging in age from 6 to 14
years were lost in Lahore in
one recent week alone.
Many of them were found,
but others were feared taken
by the kidnapers. The bands
"carry the children away and
then cither maim them for

The market is a potential
weapon in the cold war mat
affects the pocketbooks of
millions.
Outwardly, the badges of
the European Economic Com
munity - official name of the
Common Market - are seen in
the shape of "EUR" plates on
automobiles, marking their
owners as officials of the bloc,
and on the plaques designat
ing EEC buildings in Brus
sels, Luxembourg and Stras
bourg. It is seen in the filled or
der books of European indus
trialists and in Western Eu
rope's unprecedented pros
perity. Back in 1045 when virion
nry men were seeking a way
to end the wars which had
devastated Europe for cen
turies, Sir Winston Church
ill spoke of a "United States
of Europe."
President Charles dc Gaulle
sees it as a "Europe des Put
Ties" (Europe of Fatherlands).
Bound Together
But whatever it is called, I
the six nations of Western
Europe have bound them
selves together, already have
progressed so far In economic
union that there appears no
chance of turning back.
Eventually, their goal Is
political union as well, either
as a federal union similar to
the United Slates or as a con
federation of loosely united
independent states.
In these countries economic
union binds together 170 mil
lion people in a single market
which eventually will sec the
free movements of goods and
labor anywhere within the
six.
Economic union still Is not
complete. Trade barriers
within the six are falling and
will continue to fall to point
"zero" for the next 10 to 12
years. Internal tariffs on man
ufactured goods are already
down 40 per cent and on agri
culture some 35 per cent.
Problems Remain
Political union, if it comes,
will be slower.
Only gradually can the log
ic of economics and geog
raphy take over from the un
reason of centuries of preju
dice. "You Americans," said a
French professor of history,
"may wonder why it hts tak
en us so long to get together.
But to us Europeans, t h e
wonder is that it has happen
ed at all."
Although the Common
Market has been in existence
only three years, growth fig
ures arc such as to have been
agency officials said.
Often Deformed
Part of the drive against
the kidnapers is a series of
do! ice raids. Police have
found that the kidnaped chil
dren often are deformed
through the use of leg, hand
and head casts made of iron.
Others have their tongues cut
out. Both forms of maiming
are aimed at evoking more
pity for the child beggars and
more money for their masters.
Kidnapers recently arrest
ed In Rawalpindi said they
preferred to seize children be
tween the ages of 4 and 10
because they were the easiest
to train as beggars.
A ring of female kidnapers
in Rawalpindi told police
they tricked young girls into
working in brothels by prom
ising to make llicin movie
stars.
Accurate statistics on the
kidnaping! arc hard to come
by, but the fear of kidnaping
is widespread among Paki
stani parents.
Some of the kidnapers
strike on the streets in day
light. In Lahore recently, a
quick-thinking passerby sav
ed 11-ycar-old Mosaddiq Mah
mood from seizure. Realizing
what was happening when he
saw the boy struggling wun
a man, the passerby had a
lug of war for Mossaddiq's
freedom, shouting for help at
the same time. A large crowd
gathered as the boy was pull
ed free, but the would-be ab
ductor escaped.
Not all cases turn out as
happily. The vast numbers of
maimed children who station
themselves in front of the
best stores, restaurants, and
theaters in Pakistan's cities
arc evidence of the kidnapers'
success.
Some of the children recov
ered by the police said they
were beaten unconscious
while trying to escape.
Welfare agencies and the
government agree that elimi
nating begging is the way to
stamp out kidnaping.
Sahib Ali Shahn, one of
the leading private crusaders
against the child stealers, be
lieves more government help,
a law against begging by chil
dren, and more women police
could stamp out kidnaping.
Methods Studied
Lt. Gen. W. A. Burki,
health and social welfare min
ister in Ayub's government, is
studying methods to eliminate
begging. The main problem,
he said, is rehabilitation of
beggars through an adequate
number of welfare homes.
Akbar Kabir, director of so
cial welfare of the ministry,
said a national plan to elimi
nate begging will be started
this year in Pakistan's major
cities. Priority is being given
to destitute women in order
to save them from prostitu
tion, he said.

whether he is an advocate of

On Sunday, the five county
area of Greater Portland goes
officially on daylight time.
But many other communities
have decided to switch to fast
time unofficially.
The result as of last sum
mer will be a crazy quilt of
time zones.
A lDlil Oregon law permits
Multnomah county and the
four contiguous counties to go
on daylight time. But last
summer in a number of
towns, the schools went fast
maincd standard or busi
nesses remained on standard

Theaters Want Standard
Main opposition to daylight
time in Oregon has come
from theater groups. A finan
cial report of the Standard
Time Committee whose ad
vertising defeated daylight
time the last time it was on
the ballot shows that theaters
contributed all but a small
amount of the sum spend. The
Grange is on the side of the
theaters.
Because of such opposition,
the 1961 Legislature failed to
pass a memorial to Congress
advocating uniform time. But
the same assembly did pass
the law permitting the five
counties to go on daylight by
choice.
The legislature also referred
the matter to the November
electorate when voters will
decide the time situation in
1963.
Gov. Mark Hatfield urged
city and county officials to
use their influence and main

the five county area.
But several communities al
ready have served notice they
prefer daylight time. Others
say they will stick to stand

Salem and Medford are two
areas that plan to stick to
standard time. State offices
in Salem will be on standard
time while those in Portland
will be on fast time. Eugene.
Albany and Corvallis prefer
daylight time.

In a letter to Republican
