Konrad Adenauer saw eye to hypnotic eye with Charles de Gaulle, but Ludwig Erhard from the start tried tostare le grand Charles down. He did not have a chance. When it came to the question of grain prices in the Common Market, Erhard held out for twelve months, but finally caved in. Anxious to share in the West's nuclear arsenal, der Dicke pinned his hopes on U.S. zeal for the multilateral force, only to have the Americans lose interest and leave the Germans out on a limb.

...Germans stalled for over a year, since the price cut would hurt German farm income to the point of putting as many as a million German farmers out of business and seriously endanger the C.D.U. farm-bloc vote in elections next year. But as French grain surpluses mounted, De Gaulle grew impatient, finally announced two months ago that if the wheat-price issue was not resolved by Dec. 15, France would "cease to participate" in the Common Market...

...proving that not all of De Gaulle's adamant positions are wrong, a fact often overlooked by those who automatically hate anything De Gaulle does.
