PARLIAMENT NEXT YEAR FOR WEST EUROPE IS EXPECTED
(N.Z.P.A.—Reuter) (Rec. 11.45) PARIS, Dec. 17. A leading Belgian delegate to European unity talks, which now are being held here, said that a Government and a Parliament for all of Western Europe might be a reality by next summer. Only possible lastminute snags over secondary details might stand in the way. He said that the plan comprised a European Cabinet of Ministerial rank, backed by a consultative Parliament, which would be competent to discuss all European problems, except military defence. Its members would be nominated by the participating Governments. The plan will be submitted for final approval to the Foreign Ministers of the five Brussels Pact Powers, probably early next year.
