Eisenhowers Aide Seeks Slight Foreign Aid Cut
The Eisenhower administration plans a 2.67 billion dollar foreign aid request for next year a small cut from this year's 2.703 billion. The Budget Bureau approved the figure after month long talks with agencies with no room for further cuts to keep the program viable. The plan allocates about 1.6 billion for economic defense support and technical assistance and just over 1 billion for weapon shipments.

La Crosse Armory Site Favored for Federal Facility
Tentative approval by Army officials picks a 3.7 acre plot north of Clinton Street along the Black River for a $135,000 federal armory to serve La Crosse with a 200 man building possible to expand later. Key hurdles include borings, recruiting within 25 miles, and council action on land transfer.

County probation department urged to expand staff
National Probation and Parole Assn representative Hugh Reed told a La Crosse County juvenile study committee the probation department is understaffed and overextended. He urged a 5.7 worker minimum, with schools and police agencies taking expanded roles, and called for a second committee to redefine duties and transfer tasks to other agencies. Reed criticized record keeping as inadequate and stressed early delinquency detection and specialized training for police. He noted the current staff of two cannot adequately handle the workload and warned against defaulting to heavy court reliance.

Poor Man’s Atomic Reactor Demonstrated in Cleveland
Dr. Lyle Borst of New York University showcased a subcritical nuclear reactor at Cleveland Public Hall portrayed as a bargain teaching tool. He used an old hogs head and $120,000 worth of loaned fuel along with $80,000 uranium fuel and $40,000 boronberyllium starter mix to illustrate key reactor concepts without a full chain reaction. The display aims to teach nuclear engineering during the Wisconsin exposition and aligns with a planned $218,000 power line exhibit from Shawano to Neopit to Zoar.
