Lawmakers drop plan to rename Dulles for Eisenhower
Kansas lawmakers abandon a proposal to rename Dulles International Airport for Dwight D. Eisenhower after opposition from the Dulles family and area businessmen. Rep. Pat Roberts said the idea aimed to honor Eisenhower in his centennial year but drew concerns that the name resembled Dallas and upset the Dulles relatives. Instead, Roberts and Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole may pursue naming a National Air and Space Museum annex at the airport for Eisenhower.
