European Common Market Cont’d from page 2 The Kennedy administra- tion believes that with these preferences ended, U.S. mon- opolies will be able to move in fast and capture the mar- kets of Australia, and the other Commonwealth nations, thus compensating for the losses in world trade they are incurring as a result of incur- sions by the resurgent eco- nomic power of the nations of the European Common Market. An indication of what is happening was revealed in a recent British report which showed a rise of exports by Italy of 15.5 percent; by West Germany of 10 percent; and by Britain of 4 percent. At the same time, U.S. exports dropped 0.6 percent. In addition, Washington is hoping that agricultural pro- ducts of the U.S. and Latin America will be able to take over the markets previously held by Australia, Canada and the new nations of Africa on the basis of preferential trade policies. After Macmillan’s advice to President Kennedy not to resume testing went unheed- ed by Washington, it must have been embarrassing for the British prime minister, keenly aware of the British people’s vigorous protests against testing, to visit the president at this time. But, to Macmillan, his visit was the last forlorn hope of a re- Our Alfie U.S “This one contaminates the ionosphere and that one chan- ges Left-Wing Governments.” —BR.

But Macmillan’s desperate plea fell on deaf ears and he had to go back to London prepared to surrender to West Germany economically at talks in Brussels. What West Germany has in mind for Britain was in- dicated in Hanover by Lud- wig Erhard, the West Ger-. man economics minister. He demanded that the other members of the European Common Market — France, Belgium, Holland, Italy and Luxembourg — halt govern- ment subsidies to individual industries and moves nullify- ing tariff reductions. He attacked them for in- troducing ‘measures against the welfare of the entire group, by which he of course meant the welfare of the West German monopolists. Reprinted from U.S. Worker.

Somerset Maugham adds nam World-famed novelist Som- erset Maugham ‘has given his backing to the World Dis- armament Congress’ which opens in Moscow on July 9. In so doing, the 88-year-old author of ‘The Razor’s Edge’, “The Moon and Sixpence” and dozens of other best-sel- lers has added his name to those of French author Jean- Paul Sartre, Spanish artist Pablo Picasso, U.S. indus- trialist Cyrus Eaton, and many other world figures, including British philosopher Bertrand Russell. Russell, speaking at a lunch given at the British House of Commons to cele- brate his 90th birthday, re- cently gave a crushing an- Salan shock A wave of indignation swept over France last week when the Special Military Court refused to sentence ex- General Salan, leader of the OAS. to the death penalty for his crimes. In a special statement re- leased on May 24, the Com- munist Party of France charged that since the sign- ing of the cease-fire in the Algerian people’s war, more than 3.000 men, women and children had died as a result of Salan’s orders, and labeled the verdict as being “inspired by class complicity.” The compass is mentioned in the records of a Chinese- Mongol battle which took place: five thousand years ago. The first recorded use of the compass in Europe is the 12th century. ‘ swer to Hugh Gaitskell, George Brown and ‘other right-wing Labor Party lead- ers who have threatened him with expulsion because-of his endorsation of the Congress. DUAL DECISIONS He told those at the lunch that there seemed to be two sorts of decisions at Labor Party conferences: “There are the decisions that Gaitskell approves of. Those are binding upon every individual member of the Labor Party,” and, “There are the decisions that he does not approve of. Those are not only not bind- ing on him but the opposite is supposed to be binding on everybody else,” he said, add. ing, “it does not seem to me that a democratic party should allow such powers to its fuehrer.”’ Russell stated that while he didn’t always agree with George Brown, there was one of Brown’s speeches with which he was in complete agreement; he then proceed- ed to quote from a speech by Brown last October, in which he said: “‘Let us not mince words here. We must con- demn the resumption of nu- clear tests, no matter who resumes them.” Russell contrasted this with a statement made by Gait- skell in February, in which he had argued that if test- ing was shown to be neces- W.

LOGICIAN : “I daresay they are poth very eminent logicians,” ¢o™ mented Russell, “but I 9 not a good enough logicial i reconcile the two.” He advised his listeners work very hard for peace they wanted to live to bé * and concluded by saying: “T cannot alter my course of action — which I thi right — to please anyb0 I shall go on doing the sam things within or without Labor Party.” Commenting on the M® cow Congress, the B.C.
