Disarmament Talks End as Tours Diminish
Washington June 28 AP Members of Congress welcomed the likely end of foreign tours by President Eisenhower and a waning era of personal diplomacy.

He argued previous travels strengthened ties and countered Communism, while Republicans praised gains and Democrats urged cautious optimism. The canceled Japan visit was attributed to Communist disorders in Tokyo.
