But during the autobahn crisis in Germany earlier this month, le grand Charles was momentarily forgotten as Hervé conferred with Ormsby Gore and U.S. officials to hammer out a joint response to the Soviet blockade. "There we are together again," enthused Nicole while discussing the situation with a State Department man. "And we French, we nevair lower our tail gates...

Douglas: "By not having a virile stance in favor of tax reform, you have permitted the reform provisions to be gutted." There was also a partisan slap from Tennessee's Democratic Senator Albert Gore, a key member of the Finance Committee (see box), who accused Republican Dillon of "subverting the economic liberal policies of the Democratic party at the Washington level."
