e Gaulle's 'Grand Design' Brings Forth Major Problems 'Third Force' Being Exerted For New Europe Editor's not - President Charles de Gaulle's "grand design" lor Europe, which excludes the United States and Britain, conlronts the West with major problems. How does an obviously di vided West now deal with the Soviet Union? What does De Gaulle's grand de sign do lo present alli ances? What is De Gaulle's next move? By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst For good or ovil. President Charles de Gaulle has seized the initiative in Europe. And by power of the veto he already is exerting the "third force" he foresees for a new Europe of his own grand design, with both Brit ish and United States influ ence reduced to zero. The De Gaulle concept calls for a Europe stabilized and dominated by France and Germany working in close collaboration, and living in coexistence with the Soviet Union. The leadership would be French. France, not the United States, would be Europe's spokesman in Mos cow. There was gloom Tuesday in Brussels where France's five partners in the European Common Market were forced against their will to accept I De Gaulle s determination that Britain be excluded from the European community. And were was gloom in London where Prime Minister Harold Macmillan's govern ment faced the unpleasant truth that 15 months of ne gotiations to enter the Com mon Market had failed and left them with no alternatives. For the Western alliance, its unity shaken as it had not been since the end of World War II, there also were mas sive problems. Policies which had been keystones for nearly 20 years seemed about to be changed, new alliances about to be formed. For in a world of power pol itics, De Gaulle was deter mined to forge his own power bloc. What makes De Gaulle? From Paris, UPI corres pondent Joseph W. Grigg re ported "De Gaulle never has made any secret of his 'grand de sign.' It is a Europe which stretches from the Urals to the Atlantic, independent of any outside direction or tutelage. "It is a very long-term vi sion, one he certainly does not expect lo come about this year or next or perhaps even for five or 10 years. But he is convinced that sooner or later the Soviets will break with lied China and turn to the West. When they do, he wants to he ready to negotiate. De Gaulle was described as confident that neither the Common Market nor the Wes tern alliance would suffer. Flench sources also pointed out that Britain's ban from tiic Common Market need not be permanent. UPI correspondent Kantl Thaler reported from Lon don: "Tlie 'Little Europe' of the six Common Market nations is lo provide the nucleus in the wider pattern of De Gaulle's third-force concept. Already De Gaulle is casting his eyes beyond the 'six' lo the Scandinavian countries and to Spain. "la De Gaulle's concept. Germany's co-operation serins to he a pre-condition for suc cess. "Germany would seem therefore to hold the key. The smaller European countries, unhappy as they arc over all lliis. cannot afford to back oul because they could be crushed economically by the Franco German alignment."

Officials hoped the lack of oxygen would snuff out the flames. The relatively new and modern mine was the succes sor to the company's Orient No. 2 mine at West Frankfort, III., where an explosion and fire claimed 120 lives Dec. 21, 1951. The fire began Tuesday afternoon about a half mile from the main shaft and about five miles from the site of the 1951 tragedy. Missing Identified The missing miners werc identified as Charles J. Mar vel, 43, a cutting machine operator and father of seven children; Harold Glenn Mil ler, 37, a mechanic and fath er of three; and Paul W. Hart sock, 34, a shuttle car opera tor and father of four. Between 150 and 200 men were in the mine when the fire began. Seven or eight men suffered smoke inhala tion and four men were hos pitalized. At first officials be lieved everyone had escaped safely. But company officials later found street clothes of the missing men hanging in a washroom. Harry Treadwell, personnel director of the mine, said "we just don't know what hap pened to the men. One theory is that they might have been coming out and then went back to a resuseitator station, became woozy and collapsed."
