Dulles Prods France Again To Accept E.ll By JOHN scam WASHINGTON, (AP)-Stale Sec- -etary Dulles prodded France iharply Tuesday to approve tne italled European Army plan and ainted United states troops would be. withdrawn from advance posi- lion: in Germany unless the French let. "The day of decision cannot be indefinitely postponed," he said. "We are close to a. dste when non- actlon is the equivalent of adverse action." The European Defence Commu- iity treaty calls for a slngle-uni- form army including soldiers of France, West Germany and four other crvu-ntriea.

(Reuters) - Britain's annual January sales got off to an early start today with long lines of housewives outside the big stores ready to spend what's left of the family bank roll after Christmas. Christmas decorations were torn down from store windows with al- most indecent haste to cash in on the extra money in circulation this year.

(Reuters) .- sum Sec- retary John restsr Dullaa said Monday he anticipates American forces will remain in Europe as long as the 20 - year North At- lantic Treaty. signed in 1940. lasts. He mode the statement at a press conference, apparently to allay Preach fears that troops from the proposed Ilx-nation Eu- ropean Ariny would be used to re- place those of the United states. At the same time, Dulles de- clared the Eisenhower administra- tion will be forced into "an agon- izing reappraisal of its basic poi- icles" if the Europesn Defence Community treaty, calling for the lute. atlonsl army. is not ratified in the coming few months. He issued this warning before a closed session of NATO ministers and late; diatributcd copies of his policy address to the press con- ference. It was clearly aimed at stirring Western Europe out of its apathy toward the EDC treaty which was signed is months ago and is still not ratified. ' "We are not so much interested in getting German troops as we are in a situation in which the Western nations. especlslly France and Germany. will not commit suicide,” he said. "But if they de- clde to commit suicide, they may have to commit it alone." If EDC treaty is not ratified. Dulles said. the United States will have to reconsider its disposition of troops in Europe. But. he sdded quickly: "My anticipation is that U. S. forces will remain in Eu- rope as long as NATO lasts." Backing up his appeal for speedy ratification, he pointed out that half of U. 8. military aid to Eu- rope. according to s decision of Congress, would be "tied up from the beginning of the next fiscal year (June 30) because it could only be paid to the European De- fence Community." France has urged that the 20- year duration of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization be extended to match the 50-year term of EDC.
