ItoIy Expected to Be
First Invited to Aid
In Establishment
By the Assoeioted Press

LONDON, Jan. "a new anC
historic Council of Europe
with a fledgling cabinet and an
advisory parliament, emerged
today as a major factor in the
postwar world.
The Foreign Ministers of the five
Western European Union democ-
racies announced agreement yester-
day to set up the council. Authori-
tative sources said headquarters will
be in Strasbourg, France.
The five nations reaching the
agreement, after months of discus
sion on some form of European
unity, are Britain, France. Belgium,
the Netherlands and Luxembourg
They said other European coun-
tries will be asked to help set up
the council. One informed source
said the first invitation will 60 to
Italy. Indicating that Italy will

Sforza said European union is born

Committee Set Up.
The Council Of Europe will con-
sist of a committee of ministers
from the member nations which will
meeting secret, and an advisory as
sembly composed to representatives
from each country. The Assembly
expected to pave the way ultimately
for single parliament to represent
all the European democracies, will
meet in public.
Details are to be worked out by
the permanent commission of the
five powers of the Western European
Union. set up under the Brussels
pact Of March II. 1948.
The Council of Europe" is a step
toward a long time goal of some
European statesmen: A United Eu-
rope with member nations even
tually erasing geographical boun-
daries and other existing barriers
something on the order of the
United States.
However. an authoritative source
in close touch with the ministers
indicated that any surrendering of
national sovereignty to the new
council would have to be a gradual
process.
Agreement Hailed in U. S,
Top Washington officials hailed
the agreement as step toward the
goal of developing a new power CEN
ter in Europe, already divided
sharply into a Russian backed East
ern bloc and an backed
Western group.
They said promotion of European
unity has been a ajor objective of
American policy as embodied in the
Marshall Plan and the proposed
North Atlantic security alliance.
The Soviet Foreign Ministry,
which may not have been aware
OF its timing, early today issued q
statement attacking the Western
European Union as being under the
thumb of the United States and
Rkitain and having aggressive
aims.
This picture emerged from what
informed sources said about the
two bodies which will make up the
Council of Europe"
The ministerial committee" will
be a kind of cabinet with limited
powers. Presumably it will follow
the rule of foreign ministers in
their previous meetings that all
must agree or there is no decision
A consultative body which also
would be set up would be form OF
parliament with purely advisory
authority. This body could not dis
cuss defense measures. The Min
isterial Committee also could keer

NewL LaborBi||> Barring |niunctions
But Providing 3O-Day 'Coc|-Off>
Sent to Senate Group by Tobin
Toft Act Repeater
Would Replace
Old Wagner Law
BY the Associated Press

The administration today
asked Congress to enact a new
labor law stripped of the court
injunction provisions which
brought such vigorous protests
from organized labor.
The "one-package" labor bill sent
TO the Senate Labor Committee
would repeal the controversial Taft
Hartley law and restore the old
Wagner Labor Relations Act with
improvements asked by President
Truman.
Secretary of Labor Tobin is due
to go before the committee Monday
to explain provisions of the new
measure. which was released to re-
porters by the committee today
without comment.
Under the Taft-Hartley law the
Government has had authority to
obtain court orders to bar strikes
for an 80-day period after other
means of settlement had failed.
These orders can be sought where

30-Day "Cool Off, Proposed.
This provision was vigorously op-
posed by labor groups which de-
manded Taft-Hartley repeal as an
issue in the election campaign last
fall
Among other controversial pro-
visions which would be wiped out
with repeal of the Taft-Hartley law
would be the requirement that un-
ion officials file affidavits swearing
they are not Communists. Under
the present act unions are not able
to use National Labor Relations
Board machinery unless such affl-
davits are on file.
Under the new law proposed by
the administration, 30-day cool
ing off" period would be provided.
This is designed to avert national
paralysis" strikes.
The first step would be for the
President to appoint an emergency
finding board. Such boards
would have authority to make rec
concentrations for settlement. Under
the Taft Hartley law, inquiry boards
can report only on the issues with
out suggesting any solution.
Detailed Procedure.
Here is the detailed procedure for
handling national emergency strikes
as outlined in the administration s
bill
When the President found that a
national emergency is threatened
or exists in a vital industry which
affects the public interest. he would
issue a proclamation saying so.
The proclamation also would call
on the disputing parties to refrain
from a strike. or. if strike had
started. to resume work ''in the
public interest
The President would appoint an
emergency board. The board would
start Immediately to investigate the
dispute and try to arrange a settle
ment.
The board would have maximum
of Is days after issuance Of the
proclamation to report to the Presi-
dent, unless the board and the dis
putants agreed to take more time
The boards report would include
its findings and recommendations
The report would be made public.
Would Continue Work.
The bill provides that prior to the
boards report and for five day.
after it has been made:
The parties to the dispute shall
continue to or resume work and op-
erations under the terms and con.
ditions of employment which were
in effect Immediately prior to the
beginning of a dispute, unless g
change therein is agreed to by the
parties"

enstocks to Supply Hungry Horse Turbines

This is 1914 foot in diameter
section of one of the four pen
stock pipes being built at the
Hungry Horse project.
The completed pipes will be 426
feet long, and will carry up to 80
tons of water per second to each
of the four 100000 horsepower
turbines in the completed Hungry
Horse powerplant.
The bureau of reclamation photo
is by Eddie McCloud. Holding the
s699,2O0 contract to supply the
penstocks part of which will be
placed this fall is Chicago Bridge
and Iron Co.
When completed, water in the
hig tubes will drop 240 feet into
the powerhouse. There the water
will result in operation of four
1880 generators. Power is sched-
uled to be produced at Hungry
Horse in 1852 with full capacity
of 100000 kilowatts in 1858.
Large spiders of steel collars
and bolts placed in the penstock
sections to maintain proper curva-

to detect flaws.
Also under contract by the bu-
reau of reclamation for Hungry
Horse dam is construction of three
8-foot in diameter 720-foot long
outlet pipes. This s238,272 con-
tract is held by Pacific Coast En-
Co., Alhambra, Calf.
The pipes are being fabricated
there, and will be used as bypass
