...been against aggression, but afraid to speak out, were condemning Mollet in almost the same terms as those who favoring aggression, now resented his failure to finish the job. Mollet's own Socialist Party was split last week: 17 Socialist Deputies, including former Minister of Interior Jules Moch, demanded an extraordinary national party congress to review Mollet's record. The Radical Socialist Party headed by Pierre Mendès-France threatened to withdraw its 13 ministers from Mollet's coalition Cabinet unless he revised his Middle East and Algerian policies. The M.R.P. (Catholic) Party voted against Mollet...
...Powers last week put to its first testing the euphoric spirit of Geneva. In grey, upholstered chairs behind their microphones sat the delegates to the U.N. Subcommittee on disarmament: the U.S.'s Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. and Harold Stassen, Britain's Anthony Nutting, France's Jules Moch, Canada's Paul Martin and the Soviet Union's Arkady A. Sobolev. Before them on the U-shaped table lay the problem that had teased and baffled the subcommittee through 50 gainless sessions in twice as many gainless months: how to control the production...
...relaxing in slacks and sweater. On the littered political field of battle, musketry still rattled and firing squads went about their melancholy tasks. Reynaud, Pinay, Schuman, Bidault, Pleven and Laniel issued a defiant pledge that they would never give up the fight for EDC.

Forced to his first Cabinet reshuffle, Mend...
...concessions-notably, German concessions on the Saar and U.S.-British guarantees to maintain troops in Continental Europe. Inside Laniel's Cabinet are Gaullists who are solidly against EDC. Most of EDC's support is in the center and moderate left. Yet a fortnight ago Jules ("The Lizard") Moch, a staunchly anti-Communist Socialist, gave the National Assembly's Foreign Affairs Committee a thick, hostile report on EDC that amounted, as one commentator said, to "a dictionary of objections...
...Georges Heuillard down the steps from the rostrum. Suddenly, from the Gaullists on the far right of the bright red horseshoe of seats to the Communists on the far left, the diverse and divided politicians of France leapt to their feet and exploded into applause. Ex-Defense Minister Jules Moch, whose hatred of the Germans is twofold (he is Jewish, and lost his son in the Resistance), warmly embraced Heuillard. Robert Schuman, whose efforts to sell German rearmament to his countrymen were the target of Heuillard's passionate attack, advanced toward him, tears -in his eyes, to shake...
