MOSCOW. ltfarch 33—(Al=)-The Qllli" Slates iuseo Saturday lllsiit the formation of a provis- "mal Cwrmon Quw-rnnient at "an will’ date", after Russia proposed the old Welmar republic as a bajls of Germany's future regime.

In Heneral. both Britain and Un- ttcd States support the idea of a. federalized Germany, while France is for a loose and decentralized regime. The Russian proposals were subjected to an immediate attack by Britain and France.

The long-awaited Soviet pro- posals for ermani‘. made Duhlig for the first time iiy Foreign Miti- lster Molotov, included a two- chambcr parliament. elected by proportional representation through a list voting system.

Molotov‘: outline for Germany was the top feature of a day which saw the French stand by their plan for n, loose federation of Ger- man stntes and a British statement on economic principles for Ger- many with ii 10.000,000-ton llllilllill steel level and n, conciliatory gos- ture toward the French (lClllflllil for coal.

Bid For Support

MOSCOW. Mar. ZIl-Lwl-Bri- tish and American sources today view Russia's proposal for n cent- raliud Gcrnxnn government as a bid for German support iind tin attemrpt to create a system. w-hich the Communist Party Will have the best. chance to control.

One British source described the entire Soviet approach at. the foreign ministers council ns "sin- ister" in that, in his view. it ap- peared to put tiic wooing of Gui-- nian support nbovc the question of European security.

The chief objection from tho west to the Soviet proposals for ii German government similar to the old WOllIlIII‘ republic was that; it provides cosy machinery for s single party to seize con- trol oi’ all Germany.
