Dwight Eisenhower knew that the question would be asked, and he knew exactly what he was going to say. At the presidential press conference, the New York Herald Tribune's Roscoe Drummond did the asking: What was the President's reaction to the speech made by Vermont's Senator Flanders (see col. 2).

...they rate theatrical performances. The top three: the Times's Brooks Atkinson, 59, dean of U.S. daily drama critics; the Daily News's John Chapman, 53, successor to the late Burns Mantle, who writes for the biggest newspaper circulation in the U.S. (2,109,601 ); the Herald Tribune's Walter Kerr, 40. who directs and writes plays himself.
