By THOMAS NUZUM Copley News Service BRUSSELS The old dream of a united Europe bringing together 400 million people and a third of the world's food supplies trade and industry is gradually assuming more solid form Slow faltering steps have been taken in the 12 troubled years since the representatives of six governments France West Germany Italy The Netherlands Belgium and Luxembourg signed the Rome treaty setting up the European Common Market Future historians will probably say that the baby United States of Europe was finally born in Brussels Dec 21 1969 when those same six governments tentatively agreed to turn over all their import taxes to the Common Market by 1975 and upwards of one per a(oolmid i and food is lave bled ives nee The Lux- ome ean oba tiled lally 1909 'ern- to axes by per i st Local Deaths I i PATERSON NJ (AP) Four persons including the husband of the victim and a Wayne NJ newspaper publisher and his wife have been acquitted in the 1966 murder of Judith Kavanaugh THE VERDICT after a four-month trial came Sunday one day short of four years from the date the Clifton NJ housewife was strangled and shot Found innocent were her husband Paul 27 publisher Harold Matzner 33 of the newspaper Wayne Today who lives in Denville: his wife Dorothe 37 and Vincent Kearney Jr 30 a Paterson salesman Kavanaugh is employed by Matzner The body of the 21-year-old Kavanaugh partially clad was found near the Garden State Parkway exit at Clifton on March 13 1966 THE STATE claimed she was killed Feb 23 1966 to prevent her from talking to police about a counterfeit ring in which she the defendants and a small-time bookie Gabriel "Johnny the Walk" De-Franco were involved De Franco was slain Oct 6 1968 Three persons including Matzner and Kearney were charged with murder in DeFranco's death but were subsequently found innocent The state's star witness was Mrs Jacqueline Natoli 34 of East Rutherford NJ who testified she saw Matzner choke Mrs Kavanaugh outside a Clifton diner and that Kearney later shot the unconscious woman MRS NATOLI testified Kavanaugh sat by while his wife was being choked and that Mrs Matzner held a mirror to Mrs Kavanaugh's mouth before she was shot to determine that she was not yet dead The defense contended Mrs Kavanaugh was the victim of a sex attack and that Mrs Natoli fabricated her story of murder at the prompting of the prosecution to escape a series of bad check and fraud charges All four defendants denied ever having seen Mrs Natoli 12 Arrested Arms Taken In Crackdown 4 -1 cent of their consumer taxeS starting in

empowered in 1975 to control the Europmart budget The mart will thus become a true federal government al- though it will only govern trade and financial matters at the outset Reinforcing the parliament will be a step toward lifting French veto power over major mart decisions France con sented in exchange for an agreement by the other five governments to perpetuate the system under which they subsi dize the mart's farmers pdn cipally French peasants To make sure that the Common Market would have a single department of agrieul ture instead of six French officials have been haggling ever since 1957 BEFORE WINNING their way the French had to agree' to lift their veto on British membership in the mart If Britain joins Europe could big and strong enough to be an equal partner to the United States of America Western Europe should eventually be able to dispense with the protection of US troops So the Brussels settlement while it may be good news for the Pentagon could be worri some for departments of agri culture of the United States and Br i i Commonwealth countries uhne agreement means that Germany will continue to buy French food in preference to US crops and that Britain may soon favor French food- stuffs over those from Canada Australia and New Zealand The birth pangs of a European federation are not quite over warn Euromart officials Details concerning the Eurories" pean parliament's powers and French-Italian competition for the European wine market must be hashed out by Jan 20 Also even though France will not formally blackball Britain the cost of subsidizing French agriculture has now been set to high that Britain may not be able to afford to join the Common Market If this proves to be so the parliaments of several coun tries may refuse to ratify the recent Burssels deal 14r Mrs Margaret Johnson Funeral services for Mrs Margaret Johnson 71 4129 San Jacinto St who died at 9:10 pm Friday at Confederate Memorial Hospital following a brief illness

buy French food according to various estimates At the pre sent level of Euromart price 1 supports for crops it looks as if Britain would have to pay around $960 million by 1977 1 Food prices could rise 10 to 14 per cent and the cost of living in Britain could go up 3 to 45 per cent I Neither could that be the limit When the Europmart price support system was worked out in 1966 it was expected that surpus French crops would cost $15 billion a year But output is increasing steadily and the five already are paying double that amount In the recent Brussels nego- 4 tiations the five governments tried to set a ceiling on the amount of farm subsidies that' they pay The French threat- ened to walk out Finally in a trick compromise France agreed to kick back $100 million a year in farm subsi- dies initially By 1977 the kickback will limit to growth of subsidies unless the six can agree on some way of stifling overprod- uction by farmers Germany is expected to ask for limits on output That would cost little but i would doom French farmers to low income FRANCE IS expected to press for aid to create factory jobs for surplus farmers That would be costly for Europe and France would be the main beneficiary Chances of a compromise are considered fairly good because many Gaullists now want to make it possible for Britain to join Former French President Charles de Gaulle kept Britain out of the market on the ground that it was too much under US influence His followers now fear that Britain is attracting Holland Belgium and Italy into the American orbit LETTING BRITAIN into the Common Market offers the best chance of pulling her into a European orbit asserted the finance committee of France's National assembly in a- recent resolution On the other hand the French want to make sure that they get as much out of the Common Market for their farmers as they sacrifice by 1 exposing their long-coddled in dustry to foreign competition THE COMMON MARKET enables France to earn $400 million by exporting foodstuffs to Germany In addition the five other countries will pay an estimated $330 million in 1970 to dump surplus French crops in countries outside the mart But German industrial exports to France cost $800 million a year So French officials contend that formation of the Common Market has not yet permitted their country to break even :1 Prize Play Gets Another
