NATO Powers To Discuss German Rearmament Plan
Lisbon, Portugal—(U.P.)The 14 North Atlantic treaty powers meet today to approve the rearmament of Western Germany and speed the creation of a 1,400,000-man European army.

Rearmed German units would fight in the supra-national European army alongside contingents from France, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg and Italy. The European army in turn would join U.S., Canadian, British, Turkish, Greek, Portuguese, Norwegian, Danish and Icelandic forces under the supreme NATO command of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower.
