Administration Ready To Rush Controls In Case Of Emergency
The administration plans to push wage, price, rent and material controls through Congress if a national emergency or military action in Indochina occurs. The program, in study for over a year, aims to curb inflation and shortages, with a 90 day wage and price freeze followed by industry specific orders. Manpower controls are under Labor Department review, and two similar bills are ready to go to Congress, depending on a grave crisis signaled by President Eisenhower.

Desks and Security Rules Shaped by Eisenhower Orders
A trio of Eisenhower executive orders set core rules for handling classified information and treating security risks. Orders from 1953 created criteria for identifying potential security threats, expanded Fifth Amendment testimony protections, and redefined classification levels to only top three categories. Agencies and services adopted specific procedures and penalties, including desk and safe lock responsibilities in the State Department and possible dismissals or prosecutions for misconduct. A separate public poll in London shows Eden as Churchill’s likely successor with 64 percent support.
