Eisenhower Signs Housing Bill as Highway Measure Clears Hurdle
President Eisenhower signed the 1.85 billion housing bill while a highway construction bill advanced past a key hurdle. A third anti-recession bill offering up to 5 billion in municipal loan funds was delayed in the Senate until April 14 amid Republican opposition and Easter plans. The highway bill preserves billboard controls on interstates and is expected to create about 88,000 jobs this year, adding 1.8 billion federal state funds for roads.
