They sald most of the displaced Jows In France, Belgium and Sweden are now better off beenuso of improving economic conditiona in those countries.

Of Eastern Europe, they said: "Greater stabilisation of Euro- pean economy due largely to the European Recovery Plan has caused Communism to recede."--- Assoclated Prem
