Although the Administration had worried through Congress a barely adequate $3,367,000,000 (about $500 million less than the Administration had originally requested) mutual-aid authorization bill, a whole new set of distress signals began flapping around the White House early in the week. In the legislative wonderland, "authorization" is a far cry from actual appropriations, and White House liaison men reported that a House appropriations subcommittee was about to slash foreign aid even below the authorization total. Ike was disturbed. "This is no lighthearted matter," he told associates. "The very integrity, the very safety of the U.S. rests...
...Cheapest We Spend." On Tuesday night he summoned a ten-man, bipartisan group of House and Senate leaders to his upstairs study for an after-dinner conference, with no aides present. The President insisted that the mutual-aid authorization bill represented a rock-bottom figure for U.S. security. Next day he went even farther.

...should start looking for a man who did not know steel." Krupp found his man in 40-year-old Berthold Beitz, the breezy general director of the Iduna-Germania Insurance Co., who had boosted his company from 16th to third place in postwar Germany. Krupp met Beitz through a mutual friend, studied him carefully for months before finally asking him to become Krupp's general director. Said Beitz: "I thought the Krupps were trying to borrow some money from my company, and he was too shy to mention...
