Statesmen In
Europe Will
Talk Unity
PARIS. Aug. I vTl- Leading
statesmen of western Europe will
assemble at Strasbourg Monday to
consider proposals designed to give
concrete expression to the centuries
old dream of European unity.
This inaugural session of the
council of Europe will give its atten
tion to practical problems having
to do with public works, patents and
social security. One major proposal
expected to be considered calls for
the creation of an International
European passport.
It is the hope of many of western
Europe i leaders that the decisions
taken will constitute a suable ad
vance toward a distant goala real
United States of Europe similar to
America a federal system of govern
ment. American dollars already have
broken the ground for the building
of continental unity. For more than
a year the organization for European
economic cooperation iOEECi, an
administrative agency of the Mar
shall plan, has been making prac
tical decision In Its it member
areas.
As yet no contact has been made
between the OEEC and the council
of Europe. This may be done after
the council gets organized next week.
Members of the council of Europe
are: Britain, France, Belgium, Den
mark, Ireland. Italy, Luxembourg,
the Netherlands. Norway and
Sweden. Oreece and Turkey will be
admitted soon.
The 49,000 square feet of faience
clay tile wall surfaclngs in the net

Philadelphia's city hall section is
believed to constitute the largest

Chance Of A Lifetime Too
Darn Good To Go Along On
Hv HAL ItOYLC
NEW YORK, Aug. 4 iIJ Every
year or so a man opens his morn
ing mall and finds a pleasant sur
prise or a real opportunity.
That's how lucky I am today.
I've got a chance to take a free
ride to Mars I
Each day I get all aorta of odd
Invitations. On day somebody
wants men to
go over to the
Waldorf-Astorta
to attend a
corktall party
for a new trac
tor. Another day
an opportunity
comes to be a
judge In a con
test to "pick the
most beautiful
pigeon in Amer
ica " It turned
out to be a
complete waste
Hal ttoyl of time all the
pigeons had feathers.
But this ts the first time any
body ever offered me a hitch-hike
ride to Mars. I would be suspicious
thst somebody was Just pulling my
leg except tor one thing the man
who made the offer said he had al
ready been there himself. So It
must be the 34-karat McCoy.
The Invitation came In a letter
from a gentleman In Missouri, and
his first name Isn't Hsrry.

The plan calls for rebuilding
Hiroshima tn three stages. Dur
ing the first 10 years little be

the plans. By 1971 the city is to

Mars, and I had a wonderful trip,"
he wrote. He explained he wanted
me to accompany him on hia sec
ond trip, because he wished the
people of earth to have a word pic
ture of lite on Mara. He said that
aa a professional writer I would be
able to do this better than he.
The voyage certainly sounded at
tractive as he outlined It.
"We will be gone only a few days
he wrote, "for the simple reason
that our rocket ship begins ta gain
speed as soon as It leaves the at
mosphere, and we travel about as
fast as light.
Efficient rilot
"The only hasardous part' of this
trip would be In landing when we
get there However, our pilot Is so
efficient that, when we strike the
atmosphere of Mnra. he can sail
round the planet three or four
times until our sored Is slow enough
to make a smooth landing.
What Is Mars like? Here's what
the man says:
"I'll not in much Into the details
of the conditions that I found there,
because It was more wonderful than
mv vocabulary la capable of telling
you.
"The planet revolves as ours does,
but in place of hsvlng a magnetic
pole, it also revolves north to south,
whlrh makes the temperature uni
form the year round.
"There are no seasons. It is all
Just one glorious temperature. Thev
have no pests, such aa files and
fleas.
"The food grows on trees. They
have tnnrrsprmg mattresses grow
ing on bushes. There Is no rain ex
cept Just aa the sun comes up In the
morning.
"There Is no work to be done.
Everything that man desires is right
there at his hand. The springs that
cornea out of the little hills, whlrh
they call mountains, have a flavor
with an intoxicating effect."
Well, at first I (rlt tempted to go.
But I derided It would put too great
a strain on my honesty.
If I got to Mara and found food
growing on the trees and Joy Juice
bubbling out of the rocks. I
wouldn't want to come back and
advertise the piece. Thet'd empty
California overnight, depopulate
Texas and crowd Mars.
No. If Mars was like that I d stske
me out a claim and throw rocka at
anybody else that tried to land.
