Navy Reinforces 7th Fleet With Midway and Los Angeles
The aircraft carrier Midway and the heavy cruiser Los Angeles were dispatched to bolster the 7th Fleet in the Western Pacific amid tensions with China. The Midway departed San Francisco on March 16 and exited Pearl Harbor recently, while the Los Angeles sailed from Long Beach. Essex and four destroyers left the 6th Fleet to join the 7th Fleet as Red China threatens to invade Quemoy and Matsu near Formosa. American officials say Peiping’s warning will influence decisions on possible U.S. force deployment. The State Department called Peiping's statement significant.

Norfolk boards to admit Negro pupils in white schools
The Norfolk Virginia school board announced it would enroll 17 Negro students in white schools following a federal court directive to reexamine 151 applications. The action risks closing the district’s schools to prevent racial integration, as Virginia law would automatically close racially mixed public schools. Governor Almond declined immediate comment as Arkansas Gov. Faubus resisted federal actions over Little Rock Central High School.

Eisenhower signs social security boost and tax hikes
President Eisenhower signed a law increasing social security benefits and taxes. The payroll tax rises from 2 to 4.4 percent on the first $4,800 of income starting Jan. 1, with larger benefits kicking in next February for about 12 million retirees and survivors. The measure also expands public assistance funding, while new taxes affect roughly 75 million workers and employers. A separate Torrance assault case saw a 15-year-old girl wounded by a teen assailant who fled to Redondo Beach after the attack. The gunman, 16, reportedly ran away from Colorado Springs and was later found following a brief chase. The president also endorsed efforts to review welfare programs and urged Secretary Flemming to advance advisory council recommendations.
