Only the Communists dared to
think what would happen II the
French National Assembly or the
German Bundestag or the Ameri-
can Congress, or some other Parlia-
ment were to balk. This time, it
appeared, there might be more diff
ficulty in the Bundestag than in
the Chamber of Deputies. Chan
cellor Adenauer had extended him
self to reach the Saar accord.
In Moscow Saturday, Foreign
Minister v. NJ. Molotov handed
notes to the British. French and
American Ambassadors asking for
new talks on German reunification.
The notes obviously signaled last
ditch Communist attempt to keep
West Germany out of the free world
alliance.
The Kremlin was expected to
play on two major themes: A West
German alliance with NATO would
spoil forever chance for German
reunification; Germany is giving up
too much to the French in the Saar.
The first point seemed to have much
less chance of impressing the Ger
man people than the latter. Few
Germans think the Russians are
serious about giving up their grip
on East Germany. But many resent
Frances sharing in the benefits of
the Saar.

Mendes-Fronce's Show

In the short time he has been
representing France in international
conferences (since last June when
he became premier) Pierre Mendes-
France has built himself reputa-
ton as real horsetrader. He drives
such a hard bargain, in fact, that
no one is quite sure when he is
taking negotiating position and
when he means to stick by his de-
mand even If it means wrecking a
conference.
Mendes had them guessing again
all last week. First it was his re-
newed demand for stricter control
If German rearmament through a
WEU arms pool. He also resumed
his request that WEU's arms con-
troll group be empowered to divvy
up American arms aid. a PROPOSE

Foster Dulles has Indignantly re-
fused to consider from the begin

threatened not to sign any of the
three major accords before the
Saar's future was decided.
Uncertainty over the French pre-
mier's first two demands lasted un-
til Thursday. Then he agreed to
postpone a showdown on the func-
tion Of the arms pool until next

Political Review +.

"The campaign will be won or lost

dent Nixon told President Eisen-
hover last Monday at the White
House.
The Vice President said apathy
could lose the elections for the
g. o. P. but that vigorous fort
night OF campaigning could insure
an Eisenhower Congress.
Action of the top Republican
officials last week indicated there
would be no apathy if they possibly
could help it. The President, the
Vice President and almost all mem
bers of the cabinet left town for
campaign junkets.

The Soor NettIe

France and Germany have been
exchanging unpleasantries about
the Saar since World War I. It Is
quite prize.
Concentrated in a territory about
the size of Rhode Island are 100000
people-many highly-skill work.
ers-who speak German and have
German cultural ties. Coal reserves
in the basin are conservatively esti-
mated at 9 billion metric tons. (Ten
metric tons equal II "short"
American-tons)
Modern coal mines there produce
upwards of 16 million metric tons a
year. Iron and steel mills annually
make around 3 million metric tons
of raw steel and 2.5 million metric
tons Of pig iron and ferro- alloys.
That amounts to about 10 per cent
of Western Europe's iron and steel
production. If this capacity had
fallen into German hands, it would
have given West Germany a. per
cent of the West European iron and
steel market to only 18 per cent
for France. In French hands. it has
been giving France % per cent of
the market to Germany's "a per cent
(mainly in the Ruhr). That. in the
French view, has been at least a
tolerable division.
Versailles Provision
The Treaty of Versailles after
World War had detached the Saar
from Germany and put it under
League Of Nations jurisdiction on the
theory that the German General
Staff would be powerless without the
Saar's sinews of war. The coal
mines were transferred to French
management. In a January, 1885,
plebiscite, however, Saarlanders
voted to reunite with Germany.
Hitler got back his sinews of war.
After Hitler's defeat. the Saar
became part of the French zone Of
occupation. France again obtained
economic control Of the area, but
allowed the Saarlanders to handle
most Of their own legislative, execu-
tive and judicial affairs. There was
one important catch: Pro-German
political parties were banned. For

The Issues

Personalities, according to politi-
cal scientists, play a leading role in
elections. but the issues also have
their parts. Last week several new
issues were raised. and a good many
old ones were rehashed.
Foreign
Neither party has put much en-
phasis on foreign policy this year
(for the reason why. see Earl H.
VoSs' article on Page A-2D. But
President Eisenhower last week at
least brought up the subject. It was
billed as a non-political speech, and
it certainly was, in most part, non-
controversial.
Democrats (perhaps even more
than many Republicans) could stand
squarely behind Mr.. Eisenhower
foreign policy as he described it..
The United States must:
First. tirelessly seek honorable
peace through the United Nations
and other available means.
Second, promote unity and collec-
tive strength Of free people.
Third, maintain enough military
strength to deter aggression and
promote peace.
He said the present world peace
was wonderful. but did not claim it
was the exclusive property Of the
Republicans.
L--laA a.
A new issue injected into the
campaign last week was the Eisen-
hover health program proposal
for Federal insurance of private
medical insurance plans.
The President told New York
audience he would fight for his pro-
gram next year.. It was, he said,
"the logical alternative to socialized
medicine" The bill had been voted
down in the House this year by a
combination of Republicans, who
thought the bill was socialism, and
Democrats, who thought it did not
go far enough.

adviser, DR.. Arthur F. Burns, gave
the Republicans some good talking
points in a Detroit speech last week,
but the politicians did not seem to
be using his material.
Republicans have been suffering
in unemployment areas where Dem
ocrats accuse them Of not wanting
to help the workingman in time of
trouble. Mr.. Burns new outline of
Republican policy. however, painted
a different picture.
First. he said, the country has
weathered the postwar recession and
now shows signs Of moving again
into period of expansion. But if
it doesn't, he said significantly, the
administration will take sweeping
steps to stimulate the economy. For
instance, start a big highway pro-
gram, use flexible monetary policy,
cut taxes even If it means an un-
balahced budget, and increase un-
employment insurance.

Earlier last week. M. Mendes-

scheme for close Franco German
economic cooperation, not only on
the continent but in North Africa
as well. While this idea has never
before been carried to the highest
diplomatic levels, 1t has been under
discussion for some time In the

had two principal purposes in mind:

lor Adenauer. The two chiefs Of

Whot Adenouer Sought
When DR.. Adenauer came to Paris
early last week, he wanted these
things in the Saar:
I. Reinstatement Of prot German
political parties.
2. A share in the coal and steel
trade.
3. A chance to reopen negotia-
tions on the Saar If Germany is ever
reunited.
Both France and Germany had
accepted the idea of internationally
ing the territory at least for a time.
Herr Adenauer had hoped to keep
the door open for another crack at
retrieving the basin for Germany.
but gave way significantly in the
last bargaining sessions with M.
Mendes-France.
What the two heads of state set.
tied for was a referendum on in
ternationalizing the Saar basin.

stated, but will be given only three
months to campaign among the
Saarlanders. The Germans had

Economic matters, principally
how to handle coal mines with
which the French recently signed
50-year leases, have been left to be
settled later. It was understood,
however, that West Germany would
again be allowed to share more fully
in the Saar trade.
Thus DR.. Adenauer got substan-
TALLY what he wanted on the first
two points but lost the third crucial
demand. Germany's only chance
for reopening the issue of its claims
to the Saar, DR.. Adenauer reluctant
ly agreed, would be If the final peace
conference on q reunited Germany
were to approve such a move.
The German chancellor gave 30
much here that he was unable to
obtain the approval Of his chief po-
htical rival, Socialist Erich Ollen-
hauer. who was called to Paris in
the hope he would back up Herr
Adenauer.
The invitation to Ollennauer had
been typically statesmanlike move
on Chancellor Adenauer's part. He
remembered the mistake Of the
1920s, when post-World War Ger
man politicians failed to bring in
their opposition for consultations.
Exit Ollenhouer
Undoubtedly thinking Of the same
fragment Of history, Herr Ollen-
hauer walked out Of the Paris delib-
erations Friday, condemning the
German chancellor for virtually
sealing the Saar out OF Germany.
DR.. Adenauer is bound to hear much
more about this when he gets back
to Bonn
But M. Mendes France, the dy-
manic new Premier of a suddenly
rejuvenated France, foresaw Herr
Adenauer's political problems and
had provided for them at least par
