Ike Plan Revisions Move Toward White House OK
Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services panels sharply revise key section of the Eisenhower proposed plan to authorize presidential use of U.S. troops. Hagerty says the language aims to give the President authority he asked for, while House language would allow broader action. The revised Senate measure, 20-8, would still keep the final decision to Congress, with the question of constitutional authority central to the debate. The ongoing talks reflect the struggle over war powers and U.S. policy toward Communist aggression as the nation weighs intervention options. Continued coverage on Page Six.
