Then, as if by divine right, France's President de Gaulie cried halt and left the horse traders without a horse. His public moves last week created a crisis in international politics, France has been iso- lated, the European Community weakened, Britain left stranded and tke balance of the Atlantic Community upset. De Gaulle demanded that the 14-month talks with Britain for full Common Market member- ship be suspended, and that Britain be offered only associ- ate membership. Friday night, de Gaulle agreed to a 10 - day postponement of his demand. At this stage the chances of the Britain's negotiations end-) ing in success are bleak. The only hope would be capitulation by de Gaulle. But despite the pressures that wyill be brought to bear on him, he is unlikely to budge. WATCH DISCUSSIONS Diplomats in Brussels are watching closely the talks in Paris this week between de Gaulle and West German Chan- cellor Adenauer.

They are examining various diplomatic paths that might be followed to by pass or remove the French roadblock before discussions resume next Monday. There is some suggestion that Italy, West Germany, The Neth- erlands, Belgium and Luxem- bourg may go ahead and nego- tiate with Britain by them- selves. Britain's official policy is that she will continue to ne- gotiate as long as there is any- one to negotiate with. i NOISE REDUCES STAFF MORALE Cut down on noise -- that's one way to increase .he working efficiency of an of- fice. survey conducted among companies with some degree of sound-condi- tioning in their offices re- vealed 43 per cent reported improvement in, staff morale, 29 per cent in ac- curacy, 16 per cent in quan- tity of work done, 4 per cent in lost time.
