Congress Lays Behind
Voters on 7-Nation
Union, Kefauyer Says
BY the Associated Press

Senator Kefauver, Democrat Of
Tennessee, who wants seven demo.
cratic nations to join in a fedora
union something like our owr
union of 48 states, said today that
Congress is far behind the people
on this subject"
On behalf of a group of &c
Senators, Senator Kefauver has in
troduced a resolution asking the
President to invite Canada. Brit
ain. France, Belgium. the Neither
lands, and Luxembourg to a fed
eral convention" to explore how
far they can apply to themselves
"the principles Of free federal
union" within the framework OF
the United Nations.
The sponsors see this convention
as comparable to the constitu-
tional convention held by the 13
original American States in 1887
Cites Increased Interest.
Senator Kefauver said that during
the two weeks since the resolution
was introduced, interest has been
increasing tremendously all over
the country"
When asked whether he thinks
the seven Atlantic nations can &C
as far in forming a federal union
as the Is American States did
Senator Kefauver replied:
Not quite that far, to begin
with. But I think they might set
up a common foreign policy, COM
mon defense, common currency
postal system and trade relations.
He said he and other Senators
are convinced that a majority OF
the people are ready-if not fol
federal union-at least for some
thing else" beyond the Atlantic
pact. the Marshall Plan and the
piecemeal pouring out of money
to European countries.
Also introduced in House.
The Kefauver resolution has
been introduced also in the House
by Representative Wadsworth, Re-

OAR, 6 Other Groups
Say World Federation
Sells Sovereignty

The Daughters of the American
Revolution and six other patriotic
groups will urge their members to
oppose proposals for world feder-
atom on the assumption that it
would sell our American sover-
eighty" the OAR said today.
Mrs. Lola Lee Bruington. ex-
ecutive secretary of the OAR Ma
tional Defense Committee. said a
newly formed patriots executive
committee has been meeting for
two months to plan dissemination
of information to memberships.
The other groups opposing
world federation, she said. include
the American Coalition. repre-
senting IS organizations, the New
England Women, the Veterans of
Foreign Wars, the Sojourners, the
Military Order of the World Wars
and the District branch of the
Sons of the American Revolution.
Calls for Endorsement.
Meanwhile, Senator Pepper,
Democrat, of Florida called for
Endorsement of world federation
proposals, contending they would
support peace through the United
Nations.
Mrs. Bruington's statement said:
Since % States have already
passed resolutions asking for some
form of world government. and
with many legislators accepting
the views of small groups of
idealists, we believe it is time for
an organized campaign to educate
the American people and let them
know the real facts about such
federation"
Senator Pepper issued his state
ment backing a resolution intro
duced in the Senate on July 26
proposing a world federation. He
is co-author of the resolution.
Patience, Fortitude Proposed.
The world federation resolu-
ton receives my wholehearted
support because it contemplates a
federation open to all nations, )"
Senator Pepper said.
I'VE do not seek to further
divide the world by a partial
federation. We propose to work
with patience and fortitude to
unite the world under a United
Nations capable of enacting, in
terpreting and enforcing world
law.
Too many people belittle the
accomplishments of the United
Nations, too many are blind to
the great potential of that organ
ization"
