Redistribution authority. !.
During the last few months,
Mr.. Summerfieid had visited
Capitol Hill nearly every day.

his side. Capitol Hill observers
said they could not, recall ever

such an all-out fight regarding

be composed of four members of

sentatives Of postal employe
unions.
Also, Chairman Carlson of the
Senate group has promised to
hold hearings on postal rate in

However. these two provisions
are far from what Mr.. Summer
field wanted, and he was strongly

Moves
Continued From First Page,

Is some feeling that the change
to q cooler and more realistic
climate at this point might at
least be worth a try.
But apart from these things
the reception given Mr.. Mendes-
France here seems symptomatic
Of a very radical shift in Euro
pean feeling toward France
which has taken place in the last
few months. To put it simply
Western Europe is fed up with
France and the deadly political
paralysis which has barred the
way to European unity for Sc
long. What is happening in
Brussels adds up to the clearest
rejection of French leadership by
the smaller nations of Europe and
a new solidarity built around the
awakening power of the West
German republic.
For the first time since the
war. Germany is not the odd
man in the Western European
club, treated with reservation and
misgiving by the other mem
bers. Today. for better or worse,
Germany is solidly established
as member of the team and
France, for the first time, is
feeling the impact of a united
cold shoulder.
+ This, it seems, is q the real
drama of what's going on in
Brussels and the real explana-
ton for Mr.. Adenauer's be-
Vlaavior. AS he looks into the
troubled future which would fol-
How the failure aof the Brussels
conference. the German Chan
cellor is islataking careful i stock
of his own position. More than
most men. he knows that as a
dream of united Europe fades
Germany again runs the risk
of being cut adrift amid the
treacherous crosscurrents of Eu-
ropean politics. If that happens
Germany will need all the friends
it can win in the Western
World. And whatever happens.
Mr.. Adenauer will do nothing
which might weaken the bond
between his country and its new
European allies.
