A Slap That Failed Over Benson and the REA Bill
Editorial notes the congressional attempt to override President Eisenhower's veto of the REA bill as a personal affront to Secretary Benson. The Senate approved the override but the House failed by four votes, leaving Benson’s authority intact. The piece argues the tactic harmed Benson's foes more than him and cites a veto by Eisenhower and broad support in the House.

Legislature In Brief: Port Finance Stalemate and County Change
Madison Assembly committee deadlocked on a constitutional amendment to fund port improvements after a 4 to 4 vote, sending the measure back to the floor. The proposal, cleared by the Senate, faces opposition from Milwaukee official John Sheehy who urged local financing for other ports. A companion bill to curb unfair retail giveaways was advanced with a stamps exemption. A separate Menominee Reservation bill would create a 72nd county, supported by timber-based revenue, with study led by Atty. Gen. Reynolds and a deadline of December 31, 1960 for federal supervision to end.
