Ike Doctrine Faces Crucial Vote in Senate
Washington. President Eisenhower’s Middle East doctrine faced a pivotal Senate vote on a bid to strip 200 million in aid provisions from the resolution. Sen. Richard Russell’s amendment would reduce the measure to a simple pledge to use armed forces if Communist aggression arises. Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon Johnson organized what he called a decisive push to move the resolution through next Tuesday amid predicted GOP resistance.
