12 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, Jenuery 4, 196% What's Ahead Around World During This Year Of 1962 What's ahead, around the world, in 1962? The Associ- ated Press asked that ques- tion of its foreign correspon- dents in key centres of world news. They reported, among other things: Britain's move to join the Common Market may prove more important | than the Berlin crisis, 1962 | may be a year of decision | in Southeast Asia, The Congo will remain Africa's No. 1 headache. In more. detail, what they expect: , this is Commonwealth By TOM OCHILTREE LONDON (AP)--For the first} time since the middle ages Brit-| ain expects in 1962 to become} a truty European nation. This would come with the ex- pectea entry of Britain into the European Common Market--an action bound to set off an al- most limitless number of eco- nomic, political and even social chenges in the country. Sonie diplomats say Britain's entry into the Common Market rould be more important histor- ically than the East - West! wrangle over Berlin. Frime Minister Macmillan wants Britain in the Common Market to ensure Britain's pros-| pert y Some Commonwealth coun-) Finland already has heard Suviet threats. These may be renewed as a warning to Swe- den, Denmark and Norway all ot which are discussing either full or associate membership to the European Economic : Com- munity. Mihtarily, neutral Austria's relations with Russia also may bé strained if she also seeks as- sociate membership in the Com- mon Market. Tne booming economies of West Gemany and Italy are ex- pected to keep climbing, but at stuwer rates. Italy's progress could be checked by a growing criss: within the governing Christian Democratic Party. In Communist Eastern Eu- rope, Poland hopes a Berlin, sol- ution will allow it to restore economic friendship with the United States, President Tito hopes the Moscow-Peking ideol- ogica) split will mean more freedom for individual Commu- nist parties and more of a role for Yugoslavia within world communism.

O'MALLEY PARIS (AP)--France enters 1962 to the roar of plastic bombs as right-wing extremists wage their clandestine battle against Algerian independence. The rebellion for freedom in Al- geria drags on, and at home the government is fighting a rising discontent. on the economic front Over it all looms the austere} figure of President de Gaulle, holding to his single-purposed determination to end the rebel- lion, quell the right-wingers and keep France's wage economy on. the track. [Le 71-year-old president had high hopes of ending the Alger- ian rebellion this year, but mul- tiple iactors stood in the way. The rebels seemed always to pose additional requirements before talks should begin. A shakeup in their own command slowed the wheels, A free Algeria linked with France is de Gaulle's dream. He fefuses to deviate from it and his persistence may yet reap a reward. In addition, de Gaulle is odd- man in the Western Big Three on Berlin.

Their most mand will be for firm suppres- |sion of Moise Tshombe's seces- sionist government in Katanga and control of that province by the Congolese central govern- ment. The world may face a similar, if less serious, situation in Kenya. The Africans there, un- der the leadership of Jomo Ken- yatta and Tom Mboya, are likely to intensify their de- mauds for full independence. Many whites are not recon- ciled to that. Soviet Union By STANLEY JOHNSON MOSCOW (AP) -- The Soviet Union has three major prob- lems in the coming year--Ber- lin, Red China and food. [here seems a fair prospect that some advance may be made on settling the dispute with the West over Berlin and Germany during 1962. Both sides have moved to negotiate although neither has given much ground. Fart of the ideological battle with China has come to a head in Albania's revolt against Sov- iet domination. The problem can be over- simaplified, but in essence the Chinese feel the Soviet Union is immediate de-| Indonesians from their internal! woes South Asia By HENRY BRADSHER NEW DELHI (AP) -- The world's biggest elections in In- dia and the return of constitu- tional government in Pakistan are thé most important events foreseen in South Asia for 1962. Unscheduled happenings might include more trouble in India's border with Red China.
