Urge Real Authority For United Europe (By Frank O'Brien) STRASBOURG, France, Aug. 16 -(AP)--A chain of speakers at the Consultative Assembly today culled for n European governing authority with real punch. The 101 delegates from 12 Eur- oponn countries have power to discuss common problem; except defence but have no authority to act for their governments. They can only recommend action. Robert Bootliby, close Conser- vative friend of Winston Church- ill, said there must be an "execu- tive, international political euth- ority" to guide n united Europe. His position appeared close to flint of nnotlicr British delegate. It. W, G. McKoh, a Labor M. P., who submitted n resolution call- ing for a "European authority with limited functions but real powers." » ' He told reporters his resolution nlmed at quick formation of a Un- ited States of Europe. Dutch Socialist Jonkheer M. Vnn Der Goes Van Naterr also proposed “A European political authority with definite limited powers.” Earlier the prominent French Socialist, An re Philip, declared Europe despe ntely needs an over- all economic orgonizntion able to decidclssucsby n majority vote and enforce its decisions. lie said it was up to the as- sembly to create such an organiz- ntion to break down national eco- nomic barriers even over the op- position of the committee of min- lsters. The committee of ministers. composed of a minister fcom each of the 12 countries, is the Upper House of the Council of Europe. The Assembly is in the Lower liousc. Philip said the Marshall Plan's organization for European eco- nomlc co-opcrntlon is "dividing ra- thcr than unifying"'the continent. Although Marshall Plan aid is both "generous and intelligent." he snlcl, the participating nations ore turning in plans for economic co-operatlon which are "more na- tionalistic than ever. The results of these efforts toward coerilna- tion have been laughable." Thorkil Krlstenscn of Denmark also proposed that the Assembly appoint a commission to study revisions of the European Coun- cil's basic statuteforactionet the next Assembly in 1950. The statute limits the Council to consultative and advisory functions. A.F.L.

Ne one was Russians BONN, Aug. 10 -- (AP) -- m". Konrad Adonauer, probably Chan- cellor of the new West German republic, said today he will not collaborate in any way with the Russians. The 13-year-old chairman of the victorious Christian Democratic Party said in his first interview since the count of votes in Sun- day's election: "Eastern Germany (the Russian zone) constitutes for us the forc- most and most difficult question. We must. move very cautiously. We ought not, to give the impression, either in Germany or in the Un- ited States, that we shall collab- orate in any way with the Rus- sians." "It is impossible," he continued, for the West German state "to col- laborate with any area dominated by the Russians." The veteran political leader said he is not pessimistic over the chances of Eastern and Western Germany becoming “a unified state" eventually, but he indicated such unity is not around the cor- ner. “We cannot allow the people of Eastern Germany to feel that. we have given them up," he added. Economic co-operatlon between Eastern and Western Germany would be possible, he said, but only after Russian Communism and American private enterprise find seine way to live together. "The first real duty” of the re- public. Adenauer said, will be "to make every family a home-owner“ - to solve the housing problem. The new West German govern- ment, dominated by Conservatives, will be crested in Bonn next. week- end. AdenauerLs party won 139 seats in Sunday's ballotting. The Free Democrats, c. right-wing group likely to join a coalition with the Christian Democrats, got 52 seats. The Socialists, led by Kurt Schu- macher, got 131 seats and repre- sent a powerful minority. The Communists. with only 15 seats are a. negligible factor.
