Ike to Decide on Siring List Disclosure
President Eisenhower is expected to decide in mid February whether to disclose how many of about 2,200 federal workers labeled security risks have been dropped since he took office. An aide said the Civil Service Commission will brief the National Security Council on operations, with Eisenhower sticking to his view that a breakdown is not feasible. The controversy centers on whether discharged workers were mainly subversion suspects or dismissed for drinking, homosexuality, or talking too freely about secrets.

Eisenhower predicts prosperous recovery with growth plan
President Eisenhower declared the nation marvelously prosperous and outlined a 1954 program to stimulate growth, curb a potential downturn, and expand unemployment and old age insurance. He said he would use federal powers to avert a low mood, cutting taxes and launching public works if needed, while noting the 75-cent minimum wage request was not yet ripe. A 35,000-word economic message framed the plan as growth oriented and self correcting, with a record 367 billion dollars in national production reported after one year in office. Local reports note a tragic triple murder case in St. Joseph, Missouri involving 15-year-old Richard Wisdorf allegedly killing his father, mother, and grandmother for attending wrestling matches, driven by jealousy of his sister Antoinette.

Weather turns colder in Miami Valley with freeze warning
A cold snap arrives with a low near 15 degrees and breezy conditions. In Vandalia forecasts call for cloudy skies and a high around 40 tomorrow.

Snow and sleet hinder travel in many eastern regions. In Michigan up to 8 inches fell and a school bus stalled near Bad Axe left 40 children overnight on cots. Nearly a foot blanketed Malone New York as light snow spread across upstate areas.
