As I read it, I could rot help wishing that such an editorial might be written in every newspaper in every cc*ntry of the It was addressed to every Frenchman â€"the workers, nrofessional men and women, in fact every citizen whatever his occupatior cor situation. It spoke of the furdamental d‘fficulties fazced by FÂ¥fnce, which are much the same as cbnditions in all the other counâ€" trim Eugpe.

Our work on Committee Three (U.N. social Committee) in this General Asâ€" sembly session is still practicaly standâ€" ing still.

' Nevertheess, we are still oï¬ Article 3, with any number of articles and ammendments before us and a large number of other items on the agenda that have not as yet been touched. It is rather openly stated here that the Communist parties of the countries of Western Europe are working closely together in trying to achieve a general state of unrest and confusion in order to ring about certain definite objectâ€" ives, Nevertheless, I think there is less anxiety here about the Communist influence than there is in the United States. One of the main reasons, I think, is that here they work out in the open. They are a recognized party, sitting in various parliaments. I heard one Eurspean ‘statesman whimsically remark that while he disâ€" liked the Communists heartily he thought he disliked the antiCommunâ€" ists more, because almost invariably the latter did the things that increased This readjustment requires sacr: ifice but to be accepted by everyone, each must feel that the proporticn of sacâ€" rifice is equally divided. Changes in economic conceptions are hard to acâ€" cept, since they touch habits and cusâ€" toms that are deep-rooted in most countries. Nevertheless, these changes are nectéssary, not only because of needs at home but because similar sitâ€" uations exist in other countries close by, and ithese European economics reâ€" act on each other more quickly than they react on countries oversz>as. One is caonscious in Frarce of the frequent strikes and unrest in the labor word, but one feels that much of it is brought about by the strength of the Communist party. The Comâ€" munists here work much more in the cpen than at home in spreading th2ir ecoromic dectrine and social and polâ€" itical ideas. That is the crux of the matter. of hard work on every level.
