There is also a promise of
quicker results than have been
obtained under other anti
subyerSive laws.
The new bill provides that the
Attorney General may seek q
determination by the Subversive
Activities Control Board as to
whether a certain union is
Communist infiltrated." If the
Attorney General deems thema
ter to be Of exceptional public
Importance, the board must
expedite its proceedings to the
greatest practicable extent.
The start of such Government
action might prod members into
purging Communist leaders from

Talks Collapse as s Nations
Fail to Reach Agreement on
New European Army Treaty
U. S. Envoy Unable
To Rescue PorIey
AT Last Minute
by tho Assoeiotsd Press

BRUSSELS. Belgium, Aug. IL
(Sunday).-France and her five
partners in the stalled Euro
pean Defense Community failed
early today to agree on a plan
to revise their army pact.
Delegates of the two key coun-
tries, France and West Ger
many, told reporters after a
seven-hour session that the
talks "have failed"
The six foreign ministers an
nounced they would meet again
at II am. today, but presuma-
bly, that meeting will be only to
approve the text Of a final COM
munique.
The long session broke up
long after midnight after a
United States special envoy had
spent three hours with them
in an apparent effort to save the
European army.
q. 8. Envoy Intervenes.
Luxembourg Prime Minister
Joseph Bech said, "We have not
been able to reach any result.
It is sad. Indeed, I doubt
whether I shall be able to sleep
tonight"
United States Envoy David K.
Bruce, a specialist in EDO ana
other European unification prof.
ects, interviewed openly at the
18th hour in an effort to avert
the parley's collapse. He was
at the Belgian foreign ministry
for nearly three hours while the
delegates wrangled.
Since Thursday the six for
eign ministers debated and tore
apart the set of drastic revisions
brought here by French Premier
Pierre Mendes-France.
The French Premier commended
edo was dead in France, as the
pact now stood, and was impos-
sible to ratification by the
French Parliament.
Revisions Killed Pact.
The other ministers argued
that his revisions tore the heart
out of the treaty.
EDO was the French-spon-
sored dream of a six-nation, one
uniform army whose aim was
to put guns in the hands Of half
a million Germans for the de-
Tense of the West against COM
munisrn, and at the same time
provide a checkrein on any Ger
man aggressive tendencies.
Mr.. Bruce, who arrived in
Brussels from Paris late Friday,
joined the six ministers just as
they broke a three-hour session
for a recess.
Presumably the ministers
wished to consult him on Amer
lean angles relating to EDO.
Mr.. Bruce was accompanied
by his top aide, William Tomlin-
son.
While they were talking with
some of the ministers, the two
key figures of the conference,
Premier Mendes-France and
West German Chancellor Kon-
rad Adenauer, were observed
gesticulating and talking earn
estly over the conference table.
The only person with the two
statesmen was Prof. Walter Hall
stein, chief of the West German
Foreign Office.
It was not clear whether Mr..
Bruce delivered any sort Of mes
sage from Washington. Earlier,
he had conferred with some of
the important ministers Of the
conference on Saturday.

Communist East Germany just a
month ago.
The report of the new defec-
ton shocked West Germany.
Chancellor Adenauer, in Brus-
sells for the European Defense
Community project. was notified
at once.
Franz-Josef Strauss, minister
without portfolio in Mr.. Ade-
nauer's cabinet, accepted as true
the Red radio report that
Bundestag Deputy Karl Franz
Schmidt Wittmack, 40. and his
wife and daughter had gone over
to the Communist side and asked
asylum. He said the newest defec-
ton clearly was connected with
the desertion of DR.. John.
Granted Asylum.
The Soviet news agency ADM
said asylum had been granted
Schmidt Wittmack and his fam
lily and that this entitled him to
be active in East German politi-
cal affairs.
Mr.. Schmidt Wittmack was a
member Of Mr.. Adenauer's own
Christian Democrat Party
(CDU).
The Communists identified
him as q member of important
West German groups in the
Bonn parliament, the Adenauer
party and as member of the
Hamburg city council.
One official in Brussels with
Chancellor Adenauer said pri-
vately that the news, if true. was
very bad.
One German said some heart
searching and house searching
in our country may be on the
way" L
Records Of the Bundestag here
show ar, Schmidt Wittmack is
i member of the European Sc
curity Committee and q deputy
leader of the ALL German Com
mittee which is concerned with
efforts for reunification Of Ger
many.
Highly Secret Sessions.
All meetings of the important
European Security Committee
are held behind locked doors.
This committee deals with such
questions as the formation Of
the German contingent in the
proposed European Army under
EDO.
The National Security COM
missioner, Theodore Blank, and
Gen. Adolf Heusinger, head of
DR.. Blanks organizational de-
partment, in recent months have
given highly confidential infor-
nation to the committee on the
plans for creating a six-nation
European Army for defense
against Communism and for or
ganizing q half million man
German contribution to this
force.
DR.. Blank and Gen. Heusinger
also have told the committee Of
highly secret plans for organiz-
ing a central intelligence force
for the European Army and of
the security laws to govern it.
Attended All Meetings.
Mr.. Schmidt Wittmack is said
to have never missed a meeting
of this highly secret committee.
He is among the most fully in
formed on confidential plans for
the European Army and West
German rearmament.
| In the all German committee,
Mr.. Schmidt Wittmack kept
abreast Of the West German
governments projects in East
Germany and Of its plans for
handling the ultimate reunifica-
ton of divided Germany. Meet
ings of this committee always
have been closed to outsiders.
