Eisenhower darts at book burners in Dartmouth speech
The remarks at Dartmouth College aimed at book burners seemed to target McCarthy indirectly, but they lent support to foes of the senator over Communist authors in overseas libraries. The piece argues McCarthy’s critics misread the president and defends hard-hitting tactics against Communist influence.

Wisconsin Legislature Missed Chances in 1993 Session
The Wisconsin Legislature in recess acted on many items but failed to take bold steps on key issues. It doubled the state highway patrol from 55 to 110 officers, faced pressure over a 2 a.m. tavern closing rule and minors in taverns, and rejected a raised drinking age. It also killed Gov Kohler’s college integration plan amid debates over university autonomy.

Supreme Court Allows Some Mur der Convictions With Coerced Confessions
The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision, upheld certain murder convictions despite claims of forced confessions. Justice Jackson authored the majority ruling requiring proof that the defendant could not have been convicted if the invalid confession were removed from the record.

Truces and the Korean War Effort
This reflection weighs the purposes of truces in Korea as a pause in a long, inconclusive conflict. It argues that truces can shift dynamics, giving time for political reasoning and potential peace, while noting the defining absence of a clear adversary victory and the broader implications for U S leadership and global security.

Farm cash receipts total 10.5 billion in first five months
The agriculture department reported that farmers received 10.5 billion dollars from marketings in the first five months, a 3 percent drop from a year earlier. Volumes rose 5 percent, offsetting lower livestock and higher crop receipts. Livestock receipts fell 7 percent to 6.8 billion, while crop receipts rose 6 percent to 3.7 billion, mainly due to declines in cattle and calves.

Church Majority Rules in Waupaca Baptist Dispute
Circuit Judge Ronald A. Drechsler ruled that church property rests with the majority of the congregation, but the majority erred in breaking with the American Baptist Convention to join the Conservative Baptist Association. The fight traces to 1949-1950 and centers on mission funds and church autonomy versus denominational alignment. In a separate note the Outagamie County Court disclosed Annette Purdy left a gross estate of 1,092,292 dollars.
