Salinger and Newsmen Debate On Trivia at White House
Washington notes a clash between President Kennedy and the White House press corps over questions seen as less than transcendent. Salinger, loyal to the press, faced two masters as debates surfaced on Mrs Kennedy's hospital suite and the Governors Conference in Miami. An Air Force update cited under $8,000 spent on sprucing the Otis suite, while officials claimed it had little to do with Mrs Kennedy. Kennedy urged reporters to praise Governor Conference efforts amid civil rights wrangles.
