i 3 v?" Era : M 'Euw) p'i. , r Washington. A big step toward In tegration of Germany with Western Europe was taken In May iwbeft the ''"contractual agreement" treaties were, 1 signed at iBonn between the Federal . Republic of Germany and the United States, Great Britain and France and ' , , when Oie European Defense Comnmn- '- ity treaty was signed at Paris between . the Federal Republic and five sister - European countries. ' "' The immediate accomplishments were, mainly two, according the Department of State. i . First, the occupation of Germany , will be liquidated, and the maximum 'c degree of sovereignty consistent with 1 Germany's exposed position will be r x restored to West Germany in domestic f and foreign affairs. ' , Second, the armed forces of Ger "Imany will be integrated into a single f ; European army of 1,000,000 men, com prising . the soldiers of Germany, ; ; France, Italy, (Belgium, Luxembourg J'ji .end the Netherlands. They will pool -their military resources, into a Euro 's pean Defense Community (EDC). Require Ratification -' ' i These treaties will not go Into ef fect, however, until ratified by the parliaments of the six governments . concerned. Though the treaties were : , developed by free discussion and nego tiation, anmn months will Im reauired before the final action approving the ' agreements is taken. Meanwhile, it expected that the USSR and its Com munist stooges will cajole and threat en West Germans and other Western 'Europeans in a desperate effort to, prevent ratification. ' ' . In explaining the meaning of the : ' contractual agreements, the Depart- ment of State pointed out the basic ef ' feet: "To Include the Federal Repub lie in the community of free nations as an equal partner." f Special provisions' in the contracts ' fix the amount of German contribu . tiona to Western defense stipulate ' that Germany will be a member of the European (Defense Community, and reserve the right of the Allies, in circumstances endangering their . forces, to declare a state of emerg- ency in Germany if the Federal Re public and the rest of the EDC are .unable to meet 'the emergency. , 1 , - German Unity ;' The contractual agreements have i nad to take into account an unprece dented .situation. , j First, without agreement between Che three allied powers and : the Soviet Union, the umty of Germany cannot be' nausea nor can all German problems be set tled. Second, there is the need to station in time of peace a very large number of troops for defense pur poses in a foreign . country!' ; And third, because general peace treaty cannot now be concluded, the agree ment follows the unusual course of liquidating the war and the controls of the occupation regime Before con clusion of a Anal peace settlement Despite repeated efforts of the al lied powers to bring about a. fair and reasonable settlement ' in . Germany, the Soviet Union has continued to block a peace treaty, and unification of Germany, far the past seven years. Because of the unique situation of Berlin, the contractual agreements do' not apply to that city. Yet the Unit ed States. Great Britain and France have published a declaration that they wilt grant the Berlin authorities the maximum . liberty possible and have reaffirmed that they will treat any attack against Berlin from any quar ter as an attack upon their forces and themselves. West Germany has com mitted itself to extend financial aid to Berlin and to help strengthen that city in all fields, particularly in im proving its productive capacity and its employment situation. . Close upon the signing of the trea ties, the Soviet Union has moved to restrict travel routes and communi cations linking Berlin and the Fed eral Republic of Germany.' In this connection, Secretary Acheson stated recently: , "L think it is well understood ; , . by everybody, including the Soviet gov ernment, that we are determined to maintain our position in Berlin and to assist and protect the interests of the people of Berlin in the Western zone. . .. The treaty calling for a European army provides that this new inter national force will come under the supreme command of the North At lantic Treaty , Organization. Protec tions provided under the North Atlan tic Treaty will thus be extended to the European Defense Community. European Army Like the American": and . British armies under the direction of NATO, command, a common budget, a single procurement system, and, eventually, a single uniform. The merger of the armed forces of these countries through the machinery of the EDC renders H virtually impossible for any one of them to launch an aggressive War. ".- , '; v " The European army fits into the pattern of the new;. European com munity, which is being integrated as a central part of 'the growing Atlantic community. The European commun ity is being integrated economically, through measures such as the Schtf man Plan for pooling the coal and steel resources of the European coun tries, and politically,, as now in em bryo in the Council of Europe. It will be integrated militarily when the commitments to join forces in one European army are adopted by the governments of the six countries in Europe. ' 1 - The contracts with Germany actu ally constitute the third phase in the restoration of that country to full sov ereignty. The first was military , oc cupation by the four powers.; The second saw the economic union of the three Western zones, which laid the basis for poolitical union and the es tablishment of the Federal Republic of Germany, (representing two-thirds of the' German people) in September. Of 1949. A door was left open by the Allies for the participation of East Germans. (But the Soviets, who had set up a Communist regime in the East zone, had other ideas, on unity. With ratification of the treaties, a new era will open up in European history. Be United States hopes that the new era will bring a his torical dream into reality that Eu dope no longer will be divided against itself, but will be united in a common purpose to satisfy the best interests of the European peoples.
