Eisenhower Calls Civil Rights Bill Moderate and Decent
President Eisenhower characterized the civil rights program as moderate and decent, saying it is not aimed at persecuting anyone. The House bill passed Tuesday amid Republican and Southern Democratic opposition. Senate moves to place the bill on the calendar could bypass the Judiciary Committee, risking a filibuster and a prolonged fight. Senate leaders express confidence, while Southern Democrats warn of a legislative lynching and continued resistance.

President Urges Study On Ban Idea
President Eisenhower urged a careful study of Russia's disarmament proposals while warning against an unlimited unconditional suspension of atomic tests. He favored a temporary halt if tied to a broader package, but stressed no firm commitment to a long or unlimited pause. He defended his disarmament adviser Harold Stassen and noted his London return was not a rebuke. He commented on the Girard case and cautioned about discussing it publicly to avoid harming the defendant.
