Unprecedented religious exchanges bridge US and Soviet Union
A June visit by Protestant and Orthodox leaders to the United States marks a first of its kind. US rabbis may tour Russia for the first time since before the 1917 revolution, while Russian Baptists reciprocate a 1955 Soviet tour by four American Baptists. Catholic affairs, Quaker missions, and evangelists like Billy Graham surface in this broad exchange, amid note of ongoing church-state tensions and a Moscow appearance by the Porgy and Bess cast.

Do Nothing Congress Getting to Be Habit
The 84th Congress, controlled by Democrats, shows slow action with only four major bills passed this session and Eisenhower vetoing two. While highway bills move in both chambers, final action awaits consensus. Earlier, 1955 saw treaties and boosts in wages, debt, and defense, but nine key domestic items remained undone. The Democrats face a restless campaign landscape as they hold hearings on education, health, immigration, Hawaii statehood, and other items.
