...National Assembly. Reduced from 115 seats to 85, the Gaullists now rank as No. 3 after Socialists (104 seats) and Communists (96). For Premier Pinay, the splintering was one more lucky break. Barrachin's group noisily insists that they are still Gaullists at heart, and that they would resist the Schuman Plan and the European Army as bitterly as De Gaulle himself. But on economic issues, about which Pinay cares most, the Barrachinistes would do their best to save the franc.

And in this age of instant communications, the "diplomatists" can easily restrain Clark from any move that, to them, seems too audacious...
...Trib, delighted with Harsch's backhanded compliment, nevertheless could not resist an improved version for its readers. Said a Trib editorial last week: "From what Mr. Harsch has written, it is clear that, dangerous and costly as the Acheson policies have been, they would have been a great deal more dangerous and a great deal more costly except for the Administration's fear of The Tribune . . . We have [Harsch's] well-informed word for it that The Tribune is the only newspaper in the United States with the strength, the vigor, and the purpose always to serve...
