Hdanauer Believed To Actually Oppose Britain in Common Market
Rnnn -AIM)- The lone-sland
lng doubt over Chancellor Ad
enauer's true position to
wards further expansion of
the Common Market has sud
denly erupted into something
much more serious.
. Suspicion has grown into
practically certain knowledge
that Adenauer really opposes
British entry into the econom
ic community and supports
the idea only as long as the
Scandinavian countries and
perhaps Iceland are kept out.
Adenauer's opinion was cit
ed in an official, albeit confi
dential, policy letter publish
ed by the Schleswig-Holstein
branch of his Christian Demo
cratic party.
The opposition Socialists
got hold of parts of the letter
and published them. Later the
entire letter was made avail
able by the Christian Demo
crats. It contains some re
markable passages.

The most important quotes
Defense Minister Kal Uwe
von Hassel as reporting Ade
nauer's views on an expand
ed Common Market. It reports:
'False' Pride Is
Noted by Health
Educator at OSU
Corvallis - Most Americans
take great pride in the na
tion's advances in medicine
and health - and well they
might - but there is some
"false" pride Involved at
times, an Oregon State uni
versity health educator cau
tions. It is false, for example, to
say that Americans live long
er than people in other coun
tries. People in seven other
countries have a longer life
expectancy at birth. And at
age 40, males of 16 other na
tions have a longer life ex
pectancy. The truth is that millions
of Americans, including
thousands of Oregonians
"know far more about health
than they practice," Dr. C. L.
Anderson points out in his
plea for more attention to
"building up and mainlaini g
a high level" of health.
Anderson is author of half
a dozen books in the field ol
health, is well-known in Ore
gon for his television hygiene
course, and is campus chair
man for the new health Infor
mation center formed at OSU
to answer questions posed by
health education teachers in
junior and senior high schools.
This month, he was featured
speaker at the annual meet
ing of the National Da'-y
Council.
Persons in Sweden have
longest life expectancy at
birth now, followed in order
by Norway, The Netherlands.
Denmark, Israel, New Zeal
and, and England-Wales, and
then the U.S. Interestingly
enough too, all seven have
higher per capita consump
tion of dairy products than
the United States, Anderson
adds.
In his call for more atten
tion to good dally health prac
tices, Anderson points out
that more than 30 per cent o
Americans between ages 35
and 65 have an "unsatisfact
ory level of health though
not ill"-that is. they lack
vitality or arc "living in sec
ond, not high, gear."
Lack of activity, fnulty
diets, and other "insults to
health-' arc big health prob
lems with many people. An
derson continued. "Insults to
health" include bodily injury,
malnutrition, pollutant ef
fects, lack of proper rest, ten
sion, disabling defects, chron
ic infection and failure to
take proper care of infections
or illness, and the use of pro
ducts harmful to health in
cluding smoking and alcohol.
Dr. Millar to Talk
Al Library Meeting
Eugene - Dr. Branford P.
Millar, president of Portland
State college, will be the
guest speaker at the 1063 din
ner meeting of the Associa
tion of Patrons and Friends
of the University of Oregon
Library.
The annual dinner meeting
will be In the Erb Memorial
Union at the university Fri
day. March 1, at 6:30 p.m.
Dr. Millar, a scholar in
the area of American and
English ballads, will speak on
"Georgian Nightingales: Kng
llsh Broadsides and Ballad
Mnngcrs of the Eighteenth
Century." His address will be
based on his own original re
search on balladry In li
braries of this country and
abroad.
Slide reproductions of
broadside prints produced by
Hogarth and Rowlandson and
other lively print makers
will illustrate Dr Millar's dis
cussion on ballads.
"The chancellor says: How
is this Europe going to grow,
what will this Europe's politi
cal picture look like? Social
ist Denmark Is to come in,
Socialist Norway, Socialist
Iceland, perhaps a Great Brit
ain governed by the Labor
parly. Socialist Sweden al
ready is neutral, Finland as
well. What is going to happen
in Italy with right and left in
the long run, no one can say.
"The chancellor, therefore,
is worried politically because,
when all the others join, all
of Europe could become a
group suddenly influenced by
socialism and with basic neu
tralist principles. But we
should also know that the
chancellor certainly shares
this opinion: 'If we can find
a solution which brings Eng
land to the continent without
causing all the other accom
panying signs, in other words
that England's membership
doesn't make law of the mem
bership of Denmark and Nor
way and so on, then I, Ade
nauer, am of the opinion that
England should come in.' "
Said Miiquoled
Von Hassel has worked
overtime to deny he made
such a statement In those
words. He has said time and
again he has been misquoted.
"I just outlined the pros
and cons as seen by the chan
cellor," he has explained.
But the government has
been unable to deny anything.
An official spokesman told a
press conference that because
the meeting at which Von
Hassel spoke was confidential
and because no minutes were
made, the government cannot
make a full comment.
Adenauer himself has not
said anything about the issue.
The Danish and Norwegian
ambassadors to Bonn have
received denials from Foreign
Minister Gerhard Schroeder
but the matter by no means
is closed.
Serious trouble within the
cabinet is certain and Bonn's
ratification of the Franco-German
friendship treaty probab
ly will run into heavy opposi
tion in parliament.
Relations between Adenau
er and his still-loyal lieuten
ant. Economics Minister Lud
wig Erhard, are being strain
ed almost to the breaking
point.
Before the Christian Demo
cratic letter became known,
Erhard attacked Adenauer's
European policies for the first
time in 12 years of working
alongside the chancellor.
Chancellory aides let it be
known that Adenauer would
reply to this attack in a news
paper interview. Later the in
terview was published. But
Adenauer made no reference
at all to Erhard's broadside.
The chancellor repeated his
remarks, made earlier in a
government policy statement
that he wants Britain in the
Common Market. He made no
mention at all of the Scandi
navian nations.
Not too much fuss has re
sulted from the Christian
Democratic disclosures. Some
observers are inclined to treat
the affair academically.
Adenauer is due to retire
in the fall. His place will be
taken by either Erhard or
Schroeder.
Whichever of the. two it is,
both strongly back British
Common Market membership
and the entry of the Scandi
navian countries as well. And
neither of them is inclined,
as perhaps Adenauer is, to
take so much notice of French
