Washington News Notebook highlights January Congress pace
The washington notebook reports a slow start for Eisenhower's program with only three bills enacted in January. Bricker amendment debates stalled the Senate, while House and Senate session hours were sparse. The piece notes large volumes of new bills, many presidential appointments, and a backlog of unacted items fueling patronage criticism. It also covers Air Force saucer photos, Mercy Missions air rescue, a Nixon charity joke, Morse cuff links, a Florida senator's wife and a grandfather tree, and GOP women’s division demographics.
