...conference room of the White House, President Eisenhower faced 80 business-and trade-magazine editors who had taken time off from their Washington convention to visit him-and for the next 20 minutes, held them intent. Speaking without notes, the President spoke on a subject to which he has dedicated himself: the absolute U.S. necessity for an "expanding, healthy and vigorous economy" based on a "sound dollar." In so doing, he drew on the lessons of his boyhood and early Army career, and as rarely before, he demonstrated the highly personal basis for many of his presidential policies...

Meanwhile, football relations with Princeton were renewed...
...subject of birth control, the Presbyterians passed a resolution stating that the "sexual life" of a Christian marriage is "given by God for the benefit of his children, and is neither an ethically neutral aspect of human existence nor an evil which needs to be justified by something else, as, for example, by the procreation of children." The proper use of "medically approved contraceptives may contribute to the spiritual, emotional and economic welfare of the family." ¶ On the subject of race relations the Assembly cautioned United Presbyterians against supporting or tolerating assaults on the "God-given and Constitutionally guaranteed...
