Economic Pool
Farley Tackles
Final Problems

PARIS. Feb. 10 (R.-The
prime ministers Of six West Eu-
ropean countries met today to
try to untangle the last stubborn
problems holding up their eco
nomic union.
The conference in the ornate
Matignon Palace began on an
outwardly optimistic note. Al
though their foreign ministers
had failed to resolve some re-
naming differences. the six min
listers all are pledged to the prin-
ciple Of a common market.
The biggest problem outstand-
ing was how to associate French
overseas territories in the pro-
posed establishment Of a Gus
toms-free area taking in France,
West Germany, Italy. the Meth
erlands, Belgium and Luxem-
bourg.
French Premier Guy Mollett
presided at the big oval table
around which sat the other prime
minister and some Is senior Of
ficials. Another so assistants
banked the walls.
Adenauer Hopeful
The success or failure of the
scheme depends in large part on
the attitude Of West Germany.
richest of the six nations. On
his arrival for the conference
West German Chancellor Kon-
rad Adenauer said he had great
hopes" of success. but some
members of the West German
delegation appeared less certain.
The major provisions of the
common-market plan call for
gradual removal Of customs bar
riers between the participating
nations over a period of IL to-
II years. as well as standardized
tariffs on imports from outside
nations.
Another British-backed plan
being worked out concurrently
is for a 17-nation European free
trade area. which would drop
tariffs within the bloc but would
not have a common external
tariff schedule.
Signing May Be Delayed
After daylong meetings of the
six foreign ministers yesterday.
French Foreign Minister Chris
tan Pineau said the last-minute
difficulties might delay signing
Of the common market treaty
until after still another foreign
ministers conference. The treaty
had been scheduled to be signed
In March.
The other nations are baking
at French demands that they
contribute to a half billion dollar
q year fund for social and eco
nomic investments in French
overseas territories and agree to
help absorb the territories prod
tets. West Germany suggested
instead that the other nations
