Eisenhower calls for end to feather-bedding in L A speech
President Eisenhower urged Americans to reject feather-bedding and glorify hard work at all levels during a Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce banquet. He warned against make-work in public and private sectors, cited 1930s and 1940s lessons, and stressed productivity as the path to growth. The remark came during a Palm Desert vacation and amid plans for large fundraising dinners as Republicans seek to cut Democratic majorities.
