Hotel Bills Stir Adams Political Storm
House investigators produced evidence that Bernard Goldfine paid Adams family hotel bills in New York at the Waldorf Astoria in January and February 1954 while a FTC case against Goldfine was being closed. The total tab for Adams and Mrs Adams ran to $267.05, with further charges at the Mayflower Hotel in Plymouth, Massachusetts, totaling $262.29. The probe ties Goldfine to Adams, Eisenhower’s top aide, amid debate over possible criminal prosecution and gifts to White House staff.

High Court Rebukes State Department Over Passports
The Supreme Court, in a 5 4 decision, ruled the State Department erred in denying passports to Rockwell Kent and Dr. Walter Briehl for refusing to sign anti Communist affidavits. Justice Douglas wrote for the majority, noting Congress did not grant unbridled discretion to deny passports over beliefs. Kent and Briehl had been denied in 1955 after declining to confirm Communist party membership.
