Major Ike proposals await action in Congress
Washington reports more than 30 Eisenhower recommendations awaiting congressional action this session. The White House seeks compromises rather than a rubber stamp, aiming to showcase achievements before November. Key items include extending the foreign aid program, trade cooperation, wheat and sugar pacts, immigration reform, defense production act renewal, welfare programs, highway funding, postal rate increase, more public housing, flood and disaster insurance, social security integration, and a civil rights enforcement division. The tally contrasts with a low number of measures enacted so far, underscoring partisan debate on congressional performance.
