COMMON MARKET
‘O.E.E.C. Proposal To Fail’
PARIS, January 14.
The European Common Market’s Council of Ministers will today reject Britain’s latest proposal for linking the six member nations with the 11 other members of the’ Organisation for European Economic Co-operation, according to usually reliable Common Market sources in Paris.
The council might make counterproposals, they added. In any case it would* take care not to offend Britaip or arouse British opinion. The Ministers will meet today to consider the British suggestion of December 15 for reciprocal extension throughout the O.E.E.C. of the raising of quotas to 3 per cent, of national production within the Common Market.
The nations are France, Italy, West Germany, Belgium, Holland, and Luxembourg. Britain’s proposal was made at a meeting of O.E.E.C. ministers in Paris.
