Bill Heinz, 19, of 3222 Wat- seka while driving by the hotel at 3837 Jasmine saw flames shooting from a ground-floor window.

He stopped, entered and was banging on doors of the sleep ing occupants when he was joined by two motor officers, C. R. Western and K. W. Stange.

Doors Forced The officers found it neces sary to break down the doors of several rooms to rouse the occupants. Firemen said the flames apparently started on the ground-floor room of An tonio Juarez, -30, evidently from a cigarette. Juarez escaped with singed hair, offi-j cers said. Three ground-floor hotel rooms were ruined ana a dress shop and a church reading room were damaged by fire and George 4 Ruiz, owner and manager of tne hotel, said he was unable to estimate the damage.

The caller, she said, ignored her warning and the housewife fired a single shot of the store, and steal $150 from their cash register.

But a passer-by who saw him lurking suspiciously about hailed a cruising police car. Officers K. C. Freeland and Mason Sexton chased the Cinderella bandit into an al ley behind 5311 Hollywood Blvd. Sexton shouted.

LArD. But his warning! BILL HENRV If Euratom and. the Com mon Market are words and phrases which don't make much sense to you, perhaps you'll understand their meaning better In the words of the French Secretary for European Affairs who advocated their adoption like this: 7 "We are still living in the fiction of the jour great powers (of which France was one). In reality there are only two (great powers) America and Russia. Tomorrow there will be a third-China.

It depends on you whether there is to be a fourth Europe. If you fail to make this choice, you condemn yourself to walking backward toward the future." CHANGES is actually developing very slowly and gradually is really a United States of Europe, designed to do a way. with' the horrible weakness of international jealousy and hereditary hatreds which have plunged Europe, and the world, into two devastating wars. Should these movements continue to grow we would eventually have a new "nation" of Western Europe composed of West Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, the Netherlands and Luxembourg which could, if it didn't come unstuck, rival any great power, for it would contain net only many, many millions of people but would also be one of the most highly industrialized areas in the world. More important, perhaps, than the creation of an area of great strength would be the elimination of what, for centuries, has been ar.

area of fearful weakness and dissension. HISTORY No one, at this early stage, can properly assess the changes which have come over the world during this 20th century but certainly anyone who can remember backas far as World 'War I has seen shattering shifts in power. Great Brit-, sin, which had been the greatest influence in the whole world for centuries, was, at the beginning of the 1900s, very close to the peak of her power. We have seen her, through force of cir cumstances, stripped down to a tiny, overcrowded island which actually could not exist without the voluntary assistance of the loosely fraternizing commonwealth of nations which Is all that is left of the great British Empire. THE FUTURE Britain stubbornly refuses to involve herself in this new United States of Europe movement even though 6ome of her foremost statesmen believe that her only chance of remaining as a major world influence lies in allying herself with the continental nations.

Only history can say who is right on this point. With some Of the commonwealth nations leaning toward closer ties, commercially and militarily, with the United States, some people believe that at some future time there may develop a loosely allied commonwealth of English-speaking nations which would include Britain and be led by the United States. PROSPECTS Should the United States of Europe ever come into reality, its-industrial complex would be second only to that of the United States. Russia's industrial strength still has a long way to go and Red China's industry is far, fat behind. If you take a look at the map of the world you discover that there will remain two offshore island industrial complexes remaining independent Britain in the Atlantic and Japan in the Pacific Western Europe would like to include Britain but the British believe that with their far-flung commonwealth co-operating they can remain an independent and important, if far-flung and loosely knit, industrial and commercial power.

The Japanese, on whom the Red Chinese have their eye, have long believed that they might piece together some sort of a area coalition which would do for them what the commonji-eaita. is doing for EriUia.
