Abstract
A colloquy between the European Parliament, the European Economic Community (EEC) Commission, and the EEC Council of Ministers took place on November 20 and 21, 1962. The first day of the colloquy was marked by an expression of divergent views on the future appearance of Europe by Mr. Ludwig Erhard, Vice-Chancellor and Economics Minister of West Germany, and Mr. Walter Hallstein, President of the EEC Commission. Mr. Erhard criticized certain points in the Commission's action program for the second transitional period of EEC, contending that too much stress had been laid on centralizing the Community's institutions and that proposed schemes for economic planning on a Community wide scale could do little good and might even be harmful. Stressing the diversit of the European nations, he stated his desire for a federal Europe where the various countries and peoples could live their own lives according to their own ideals.
