French effort to keep smiling
Paris, June 4,
The French government, dismayed at the angry quarrel with Britain into which it was pro- cipitated last week over the Schuman Plan, today prepared to make a major effort to restore friendly relations between London and Paris.
Word went out from the Prime Minister, Mr. Georges Bidault, and the Foreign Minister, Mr. Robert Schuman, to all responsible gov- ernment officials to avoid rigorously any fur- ther polemies or backbiting over Britain's re- fusal to join France and five Western neigh- bours in a daring plan to pool Western Europe's heavy industry resources.
French newspaper editors were discreetly requested to avold anything in the nature of an anti-British campaign in edito- rial columns. The Qual · d'Orsay, decided to make no reply to the British Foreign Office communi~ que of Saturday, suggesting a conference of Western European Foreign Ministers on the coal and steel pooling programme be-
