Pact Blast Shelved by Congress Amid Split Over War Move
Washington Congress shelved the Eisenhower administration’s push to condemn Soviet enslavement of other peoples amid signs the plan may not be revived in its present form. Senator H.

Taft urged wording changes that Eisenhower later said did not alter the plan’s sense.
