...immense soldier to fight the Russian Bear, the Senators pictured EDC as a suit of iron-clad armor. When France refused to help make that protection, the Committee shut off dollar aid. It reasons that since the Coal and Steel Community was to have been the economic framework for EDC, French rejection makes the Community nearly valucless. What the argument ignores is that the ECSC is necessary for a strong economy, and that by injuring this economy the Senators are knocking the backbone out of their envisioned soldier. The Community is the first European agency that has actually been able...
...Britain and Canada. They would talk first of giving West Germany its sovereignty, though perhaps not so sweepingly as the Adenauer government demanded in its first angry reaction to the death of EDC. Then some careful formula would have to be worked out for German rearmament within the framework of NATO.

The "general dance" which provides the framework of the central movement of the Canata draws into its whirl the Sacred History, the Lyke-Wake Dirge, the plaints of innocents and of sinners, and shapes a unified but very personal pilgrim's progress. To wrest objective experience from it, a listener must begin with a faith in this...
...Sunday, April 4, the French held an emergency Cabinet meeting, asked U.S. Ambassador Douglas Dillon whether the U.S. could help Dienbienphu with carrier-plane strikes. The U.S. refused, explained that such intervention could only be taken within some framework of "united action." The French were surprised, particularly as they knew that six U.S. carriers had been moved into the Gulf of Tonkin...
