One More Step Toward Unity

Acceptance by the French delegation at the
Six-poWer conference in Rome of the principle
OF Supranational European government gives
a powerful forward push to this dream of
political federation.
The nations Observation-Disclosures West
Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and
Luxembourg already are joined in the supra
national Coal and Steel Authority and are
signatorieS of the European Defense Community
treaty. The Rome meeting has been engaged in
one of the several steps calculated to produce
a constitution for the proposed federation A
committee of parliamentarians appointed by the
Coal and Steel Authority and identified as the
Ad Hoe Assembly submitted to the Rome dele
gates basic document intended to provide
guidance in the writing of a constitution. The
current conference, in turn, will submit further
and more detailed recommendations to the
foreign ministers of the six states involved.
The significance of the French action of
this week lies in the fact that it implies a re-
versal in the recent French mood of reluctance
and reservation toward any surrender of SOW
ereignty to an international body. This was,
in fact, the position taken by the French dele
CATION when the Rome meetings began on
September % and the person most responsible
for the shift appears to have been Frances
Vice Premier Teitgen, himself member of the
AQ hoe Assembly. Mr.. IelLgen, aCCenQlng the
conference as one of the parliamentarians but
not as a member of the French delegation ap-
pealed to his countrymen to set aside some of
their initial objections and reservations to the
supranational principle. On the basis of this
appeal, the delegation asked new instructions
from Premier Laniel and Foreign Minister
Bidault with the result that they later an
nounced their support of a bicameral parlia-
ment council of national ministers and an
executive council which would have the power
to issue advice and recommendations binding
upon the member governments within defined
fields of jurisdictions.
Since this point of view complies broadly
with the proposals of the Ad Hoe Assembly
already generally favored by the other five
nations represented, the conference should now
be able to present some constructive further
recommendations to the foreign ministers
There are, of course differences of opinion on
details of what federation constitution should
provide and how far the merging of sover-
eighties should go. The resolution of these
differences will be another phase of the time
consuming process of making the federation
reality. But this is far-reaching and revolu-
tionary project, holding such great hope for
West European unity and political concord that
every step forward is worthy Of con1mendation

ease the threat of some Yugoslav military

the placing of the bulk of Italian armed forces

Arlington Swimming Pools

/ wonder II the facts that Charles w.

cerning the proposal of one Ernest j.
Holcomb for financing and construct
ing swimming pools in Arlington are as
reliable as the ones he gave about the
Arlington Civic Federation and it's &C

that by this democratic procedure I

eide for themselves whether they want

time, I was able to collect 600 sigma

ment, most of the Signers are home
owners, taxpayers and qualified voters.

Formula for Trieste

The British American decision to reinqush
all control of Zone of the Trieste territory
to Italy appears to be the best way out Of
troublesome situation. It does, at least leave
the two principals to the Trieste controversy
Italy and YugoSlavia-face to face and alone
relatively equal basis. In view OF the d1a-
metrically opposed claims which each has raised
in the past for the entire territory and the con-
flicting compromise proposals which each has
made it is difficult to foresee now any accept
able alternative to indefinite partition.
{ AS far as Britain and the United States are
concerned, Trieste has been a burdensome
headache ever since World War II ended. The
Free Territory was defined during protracted
negotiations over the Italian peace treaty. with
an understanding that eventually it would be
placed under United Nations governorship.
1mplementation of this understanding was
blocked by Soviet RuSSia'S refusal to agree with
the Western powers on selection OF governor
and the compromise was reached of dividing
the territory into two zones. Yugoslavia was
given jurisdiction over Zone B while Zone A
was placed under British-American military
administration. In the spring Of 1852, Italy
was given certain civil responsibilities in Zone
A, where the population is predominantly Ital-
Ian. During the Italian election campaign Of
1948, France Joined with Britain and the United
States in declaration that the entire territory
should come under Italian rule. Since Com
] munist Yugoslavia was then allied with Com
muniSt Russia, the tripartite statement had an
anti-CommuniSt impact on the Italian elections.
/ 1t was pledge that has embarrassed the West
ern powers since Yugoslavia broke with the
Kremin and shifted to pro-Western position.
The current BritiSh-American decision at least
removes this source of embarrassment
While this latest proposal is retreat from
the pro-Italian pronouncement of 1948, it still
strengthens the italian position both militarily
and politically The gaining of full jurisdiction

be made into flour and sent

Discussed at the meeting
were methods of collection to
be employed, and pastors of
all churches in the county are
asked to stress giving to CROP
during the week. During the
drive, each donor is asked to
stipulate the church he wishes
to receive credit for his dona-
ton. Plans were also discussed
for dropping leaflets over
towns of the county explain
ing the purpose of the CROP
drive.
Area chaIrmen for the drive
will be announced in the near
future, and they in turn will
select helpers who will call on
neighbors to solicit commodities
for CROP during the week.
anyone wishing to volunteer to
help with the drive is asked to
contact either of the co-chalr-
men, Mr.. Warren or the Rev.
Mr.. Kroehler.
Plans are also being made to
collect a carload of horses dur
ing the drive. The animals
would be shipped from the Big

sing, then shipped overseas.
Those who may have horses to
donate to CROP are asked to
contact Ruth Giles at the

Hardin before August Is, so
that arrangements can be made
for shipment. Committeeman

He called upon the govern

Yellowtail insisted some bills

those treaties, would strip In

them without government aid.
Congressman Harrison and

Aspinall said if the proposed

charged they would not be
passed. He also pointed out that

any such bills.
