3, GERMANY: Socialist opposition to Schuman Plan--Socialist
leader Schumacher has told the US High Commission in Bonn
that the Schuman Plan is an unconcealed French attempt to
gain control of the German Ruhr. Schumacher accused the

the Schuman Plan is not based solely on alleged defects in
the plan but is to a large extent a reflection of the growing
Socialist tendency to make domestic political capital of
the general opposition to all Allied policies,

ter Attlee, the southward movement of 'North Korean refugees
and heavy military equipment, and the evacuation of certain
wealthy families.
