Interpretation of Words Holds Key To Britain in Common Market
Editor note Following it
the tecond in a leriei of three
diipatchei by UPI Foreign
N.wi Analyit Phil Newiom
on the iubject of the Common
Market and European unity;
miracle or mirage.
By PHIL NEWSOM
UPI Foreign News Analyit
The men in charge o the
day-to-day destinies ot the
European Common Market
approach their task with al
most religious fervor. Among
them a favorite ' word is
"cohesion." Another is
"faith."
Their sincerity can no more
be questioned than can the
undoubted economic success
of the six-nation European
Common Market whose ori
gin sprang from the desires
of the six to s- bind them
selves together that future
wars among them would be
impossible.
But the words "cohesion"
and "faith" are subject to in
terpretation and upon how
they are interpreted will de
pend whether Great Britain
is to be successful now in her
efforts to join the European
community or whether her
entry is to be put off indefi
nitely, perhaps for years.
And upon them also may
depend the future of the com
munity itself, whether it real
ly is the forerunner of a unit
ed Europe stronger either
than the United States or the
Soviet Union or whether Eu
rope once more is to fall back
into a system of separate al
liances and power blocs sub
ject to old jealousies, suspi
cions and ambitions.
Other Nations Interested
The community which Bri
tain seeks to join is com
posed of France, West Ger
many, Italy, Belgium, The
Netherlands and Luxem
bourg. Upon British entry also de
pends membership for Den
mark, Norway and Ireland.
And conditional upon thai
Is the question of associate
membership for Sweden,
Switzerland, Austria and Por
tugal to whom Britain is
bound through its ties with
the European Free Trade As
sociation. And beyond that is the
hope of an economic and poli
tical force binding 300 mil
lion West Europeans.
When the Common Market
spokesmen speak of "cohe
sion," they speak of the
forces which have brought
the six through the early cri
sis of organization and anoth
er which brought them to
agreement on the thorny
question of agriculture.
The forces of cohesion,
they say, already are at a
minimum and might disap
pear altogether should rules
of entry be relaxed.
Therefore, they speak of
"faith" which is a broad defi-
Bey Scouts
Pack 5
The December meeting for
Cub Scout Pack S was held in
the Jefferson school gymnas
ium recently. Attending were
Cub Scouts and their families,
and Cubmaster Wayne Ben
nett, who presided for the wc
tivities. The flag ceremony
was conducted by Den 8.
Den 4 decorated a Christ
mas tree with ornaments they
had made during recent den
meetings.
The wild frontier, complete
with Indians and Daniel
Boone himself, (all portrayed
by Den 2) was the setting for
a skit entitled, "Daniel
Boone's Escape."
Den 8 presented "Tree of
Many Lands." They trimmed
a Christmas tree with orna
ments representing different
countries of the world and
closed with the singing of the
carol, "O Christmas Tree."
Richard Snow was escorted
to Akela's council for induc
tion into Cub Scouts and was
presented his Bobcat pin by
his parents.
R. E. Pope awarded denner
stripes to Douglas Wiley.
Cub Scouts brought gift
wrapped cans of food which
will be combined with similar
donations from Boy Scout
Troop 105 of Jefferson school
and given to needy families.
The Pack members sang
and Mrs. L. H. Trask, Den
Mother for Den 2, played pi
ano accompaniment.
The evening's events were
climaxed by the arrival of
Santa Claus who brought
candy treats for all. Den 2
again had the highest repre
sentation at the meeting and
for the third consecutive time
was awarded the "Cubbie."

nition of the terms upon
which they demand Britain
accept entry, without firm
guarantees for British indus
try or agriculture or for the
Commonwealth nations
which would lose their trade
advantages with Britain.
One of Exponents
Walter Hallstein, presi
dent of the Common Market's
ruling commission, is one of
the foremost exponents of co
hesion and faith.
Hallstein, a German, is
graying and precise even to
the way he combs his hair.
He is, in Brussels parlance, a
federalist, one who favors
close European political
union under a powerful Eu
ropean parliament.
He would like political
union now but he agrees that
it must come slowly, not un
til after Western Europe has
been able to settle on a com
mon nuclear policy.
In his comfortable office in
the commission's modernistic
office building just off the
Avenue de la Joyeux Entrei
(Street of the Joyous En
trance), he says:
"The creation of a united
Europe requires both respon
sibility and trust.
" . . .The task cannot be
accomplished overnight. That
is why so many of the solu
tions so far envisaged in the
British negotiations may seem
vague or insufficient - prom
ises, procedures, declaration
of intent to be set in motion
in the future.
"But that is precisely what
the EEC treaty was in 1957 -and
look how far we have
come since then!"
Can Quote Figures
Hallstein can quote impres
sive figures:
Internal farm tariffs among
the six cut 35 per cent, in
dustrial tariffs 50 per cent
and with a chance that all in
ternal tariffs will be abolish
ed by mid-1967, two and a
half years ahead of schedule.
The gross national product
of the six up 24 per cent be
tween 1958 and 1981.
Industrial production up 29
per cent.
External trade up 27 per
cent as compared with 19 per
cent for general world trade
expansion.
Those within the Common
Market who frankly expect
failure in the current negotia
tions with Britain do so on
three counts:
- That Britain still regards
t h e European community
simply as an enlarged mar
ket and not as a real com
munity with political as well
as economic goals, thus dis
torting her vision.
- That Britain's position on
agriculture is unrealistic.
- That the Macmillan gov
ernment errs in attempting
to keep the question out of
British politics - that the
move is so important to Brit
ain that it should become a
major issue in a British gen
eral election.
To which the British reply:
"Who are they to tell us
how to run our country?"
Visits Foreign Office
In the stone pile which Is
the British Foreign Office
off Whitehall St., a coal fire
burns in an open fireplace
against the early winter
chill.
And In a marble-lined sec
ond floor office, Lord Privy
Seal Edward Heath received
this correspondent during a
breather between sessions of
Parliament and his job as
Britain's chief negotiator in
Brussels.
Heath is a handsome, rud
dyfaced man with an eye to
history.
He sees the current nego
tiations as having one "su
preme object - to create that
wider European unity, eco-

nomically and politically,
which will enable all the
countries to develop their
own resources for the good of
their people."
Heath has been tagged by
many as the next conserva
tive prime minister of Great
Britain and he knows the
consequences if he fails at
Brussels.
Has Accepted Consequences
Britain, he says, has ac
cepted the political and eco
nomic consequences of enter
ing the Common Market but
has asked for certain adjust
ments - adjustments to come
into line with Europe's more
costly price supports for agri
culture and adjustments to
protect Commonwealth prod
ucts which now come into
Britain duty free.
Has Britain a deadline on
negotiations?
"No. We will negotiate as
long as necessary."
Arc the negotiations more
difficult than expected?
' "We thought they would be
difficult but not that they
(the six) would be so unreasonable."
Heath's determined opti
mism that the current nego
tiation will end in success is
not shared by Harlld Wilson,
former chancellor of the Ex
chequer and a member of the
Labor party's "shadow cab
inet." He believes the Macmillan
government's obvious anxiety
to enter the market has de
stroyed the British bargain
ing position and that no
agreement a c c e p table to
British agriculture and to
Commonwealth exports can
be reached.
