Jel cerned about the possibility of Great Britain joining the European Common Market because it could well cause great loss of trade But the British Gov ernment is even more worried by the risks involved it would seem For the people it is simple matter of economy since the recent sterling crisis was muc more acute than was announced and the danger of the central banks not support ing the pound is apparent lf Britains application was acce ted by the ECM it must be faced with ood of goods into the home market all of which would have to be paid for in for eign currency It is hoped that this com etition would force down the price of homeproduced goods thus maklng it possible to sell to as well as buying from the large population of the Common Mar The danger to be faced is that the British worker will not produce more and will not agree to prolonged wage freeze If he does neither then we can be sure that ve substantial unemplofyli ment will occur he British shopperw undoubtedly bu the cheapest goods av ailable and for most part imported So unless production rises and costs fall there will be no prospect of selling more than now to Common Market countries British news apers are divided on the issues Some aim it would lead Britain to economic tribulations others cg rove but note that wages will be pro em The idea is old that cheap imports force nation to become competitive In the past it has always forced Britain into tariff protection Would it become effect ive at this time Down Memory Lane QUINTUPLETS IN NEWS The Dionne Quintupletswere 25 years the talk of
