8 ( A )
THE EXPRESS REFERENCE MADE TO ARTICLE 3 IN ARTICLE 53 DOES NOT RELEASE THE HIGH AUTHORITY FROM ITS DUTY TO OBSERVE THE OTHER ARTICLES OF THE TREATY AND IN PARTICULAR ARTICLES 2, 4 AND 5 . ARTICLES 2 TO 5 MUST ALWAYS BE OBSERVED BECAUSE THEY ESTABLISH THE FUNDAMENTAL OBJECTIVES OF THE COMMUNITY . THOSE PROVISIONS ARE EQUALLY BINDING AND MUST BE READ TOGETHER IF THEY ARE TO BE PROPERLY APPLIED

( B )
THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLES 2 TO 5 CAN STAND BY THEMSELVES AND ACCORDINGLY, IN SO FAR AS THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ADOPTED IN ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THE TREATY, THEY ARE DIRECTLY APPLICABLE . IF THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED OR ARE GOVERNED BY OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE TREATY WORDS RELATING TO THE SAME PROVISION MUST BE CONSIDERED AS A WHOLE AND APPLIED TOGETHER . IN PRACTICE IT WILL ALWAYS BE NECESSARY TO RECONCILE TO A CERTAIN DEGREE THE VARIOUS OBJECTIVES OF ARTICLE 3 SINCE IT IS CLEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO ATTAIN THEM ALL FULLY AND SIMULTANEOUSLY AS THOSE OBJECTIVES CONSTITUTE GENERAL PRINCIPLES WHICH MUST BE OBSERVED AND HARMONIZED AS FAR AS POSSIBLE
( TREATY, ARTICLES 2, 3, 4 AND 53 ).

( TREATY, ARTICLES 53 ( B ) AND 59 AND ANNEX II ).
*/ 657J0008 /*.
( CF . PARAGRAPH 7, SUMMARY IN CASE 8/57 OF 21 JUNE 1958 ):

IN PARTICULAR THE FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 53 ( B ), WHICH THE HIGH AUTHORITY IS ENTITLED TO USE AS AN INDIRECT MEANS OF ACTION ON PRODUCTION, ENTAIL BY THEIR NATURE RESULTS CAPABLE OF AFFECTING THE PLANS OF UNDERTAKINGS, SUCH AS, FOR EXAMPLE, THEIR INVESTMENT PLANS
( TREATY, ARTICLES 53 ( B ) AND 54 ).
