...Washington dinner, Milton wheeled his black, air-conditioned Imperial sedan into the White House driveway. Once or twice a week, he makes the 45-minute drive from Johns Hopkins to Washington. Often he stays overnight, and the Upstairs Red Room (so called to distinguish it from the main-floor parlor known as the Red Room) is generally kept ready for him. In the privacy of the presidential bedroom, the brothers can unbend over a drink or two-Scotch and soda for Ike, a bone-dry martini for Milton-furl sleeves, lounge coatless in the easy chairs and talk...

...Personal income rose to an annual rate of $354.5 billion in July, highest in history. The new level was $2.5 billion higher than in June and $2.4 billion higher than the previous record of $352.1 billion, also set in August 1957. Main reasons for the jump: a $1 billion rise in private-industry payrolls, plus another $1 billion increase in the federal payroll. ¶ Housing starts rose to an annual rate of almost 1,160,000 in July, 14% higher than the rate in July 1957 and the highest in 2½ years. FHA, VA and conventionally financed housing...
