President Eisenhower approved a home front Point Four style program aimed at reducing chronic unemployment in industrial regions such as New England textiles and Pennsylvania and West Virginia coal areas. The plan would create a coordinating agency in commerce or labor, offer technical aid, and share loan burdens with government partners. Plans to propose legislation in January were stated by Burns Hauge and Lodge after two hospital conferences.

A group of more than 25 Taylor township mothers led by Clara Tharrett used a tin whistle to halt traffic on Telegraph Road U S 24 to demand a stop light at the school crossing. Police aided school buses as mothers kept vehicles from moving until the survey could be done, with a second blockade last week leading to a light. Since January at least 54 have died on this 64 mile stretch.
