In an interview yesterday "the

Reorganization Proposals
The earlier inquiry, which

put into effect by the new ad-

Among them were the aboli-

super cabinet with a large bu-
reaucracy of its own into a
personal advisory board to the

economic vendetta at this point
may be open to question.
For its part. the British La
Dor Party sees the problem of
what to do about the Common
mon Market" in somewhat a
different light.
Their solution is said to in
clude a new series of negotia-
tions on a global scale starting
With a Commonwealth confer
ence and going on to talks be-
tween the Common Market Six,
the Commonwealth, the Euro
pean Free Trade Association
and the United States.
Beyond this and the gen.
eral admission that Britain
must put its own economic
house in order-'the fight" for
which everyone is spelling con-
Nsts very largely of hot air.
On all sides there is delib-
crate distortion of the policies
and purposes of Gen. de Gaulle
and dire predictions of his
plans to convert the Common
Market into sinister French
dominated dictatorship.
Macleod Thunders
Thus Mr.. Macleod thunders
against the French Presidents
vision of a Europe isolated
from America and built up into
q rival power group" For its
part, Britain is determined to
% everything in its power" to
foil the Gaullist plot. The fact
that Gen. de Gaulle is propos-
ing no such thing is for the
time being Of little consequence.
Once things calm down, how
ever, one wonders how long the
fundamental differences" now
being so loudly denounced will
stand UP to serious exami-
nation.
One may note, for instance.
that the arguments used by
Gen. de Gaulle to Justify
Frances independent nuclear
effort are almost precisely the
same as those used by Mr.. Mac
milan in explaining to Parlia-
ment why Britain must keep its
own nuclear force. These in
clude the heretical thought
that the United States should
not be entrusted for all time"
with the nuclear defense Of
Europe and that without these
weapons Britain would be more
a satellite than an ally.
The same arguments in Gen.
de Gaulle's mouth are taken as
a. deadly threat to the survival |
Of the Western alliance.
Equal Partner Thesis
.One also may wonder whether |
the general vision" Of the
shape Of things some IS years
hence is as monstrous as it ap-
pears to the overheated politi- /
clans here.
Until now the goal Of a
united Europe-including Brit
ain-poSsessing the means of |
its own defense and playing the |
role Of an equal partner in the |
Atlantic alliance has not been |
considered exactly a crime. And |
II the achievement Of this goal |
demands a decrease in the de- |
pendence Of Europe on the |
United States it does not nee
eSsarily follow that the alli-
snce will automatically crum-
bile.
In fact Gen. de Gaulle's real
ly objectionable crime may well |
have been to look too far into I
the future and say too clearly
what he saw.
This is an exercise which poll |
iticians always find disturbing. |
And yet If Britain's own po-
litical leaders could see a little |
further down the road today,
the country might face the fu-
ture with more confidence.

He had battled left-wing ex-

approval Of a referendum for
Singapore to join Malaysia.
The leftists shared in the gi-
ant dragnet that got under
way in the early morning hours
were accused of jeopardizing
national security.
First word of the arrests
came from the Malayan men,
