- oAAACo 44uS7SA " NAA2NASONA SA~Ao
Eisenhower Policy Of No Appeosement
Hailed in Congress. Poee As
today as the new President be-
gan his first full day in office
by arriving at his desk at 8:02
am. for a conference with Her
bert Brownell, jr., his Attorney
General-deSignate.
Mr.. Hagerty's announcement
set at rest reports that Gen.
Eisenhower might either aban-
don the news conference system
of the past 20 years, or to re-
quire reporters to submit writ
ten questions in advance.
THE President does not expect
to change any normal procedures
of the past-with one exception, !"
Mr.. Hagerty told his first Wash
ington news conference.
Must Work Out Details.
He then explained the tenta-
tive television setup, which he
said would have to be worked
out along with other details of
the present arrangements. The
press secretary said he would
assume" that the President
would hold press conferences
weekly and he added he thought
they would start next week.
He smilingly told reporters
that the new organization would
have to get our feet on the
ground" before things get NOV
ing in the new administration.
On the controversial subject
of submitting written questions,
such as were required in the
Coolidge and Hoover admins
trations, Mr.. Hagerty empha-
sized that will not be done
In explaining the television
plans, MIR. Hagerty said, "Presi-
dent Eisenhower would like to
work out a system whereby he
could give talks to the people
and that this could be done by
televising press conferences"
''What we are thinking OF is
something like a once-a-month
TV conference" he continued,
adding he didn't want to be
hound to that.
Issue Became Acute.
The news conference issue be-
came acute because of reports
that some of President EiSen-
hower's advisers were urging him
to discard the ad lib news con-
ferences held by Presidents
Roosevelt and Truman on set
schedule and. instead, make fire.
quent reports by radio and tele-
vision to indicate what his ad-
ministration is doing.
AS an alternative, the advisers
said, he should have the confer
ences, but should require the
questions to be submitted in ad-
vance in writing. Under such a
system. a President could ignore
any question he saw fit.
The Eisenhower headquarters
in New York refused consistent
ly to discuss this point, saying
that it would be dealt with in
full when the general took Of
flee. At the very outset of his
first news conference this morn
ing, Mr.. Hagerty brought that
up and told reporters the present
system would prevail.
Viewed as Worthwhile.
He emphasized that Gen. Efs
genhower believes that news
conferences serve a worthwhile
function because they serve to
get the Presidents views to the
reporters and to the people for
whom they write.
Mr.. Hagerty said the President
also was thinking of another way
to improve news coverage by
bringing in heads of agencies for
joint sessions whenever the
White House has any announce
mentS to make affecting indi-
Vidual units.
For example, Mr.. Hagerty ex-
planned, Gen. Eisenhower migL:

ly at z am, dozen Cincinnati
reporters and photographers
were on hand.
There was no crowd of Tru-
man admirers as there had been
last night at Union Station in
Washington, at Silver Spring
Md, and MartinSburg, w. Va.
But the former President did
not disappoint the newsmen.
The minute the train stopped he
alighted from the car for his
mornings walk.
Although it was quite cold he
did not bother with a topcoat.
Can't Feel Difference.
The Cincinnati reporters had
some questions for him. do you
feel any different this morning?"
NO" he said, II can't feel
any difference. 1t seems just the
same where we are"
With that he gestured at the
circle Of reporters and every one
laughed.
You have to get yourself ad-
juSted to civilian life." he added.
Another reporter asked if he
had "any feeling of relief when
President Eisenhower was in
augurated?"
NO" said Mr.. Truman, che
was elected and I abide by the
will OF the majority always"
How about Mrs. Truman" the
reporter asked. WAS she glad
it was all over?"
Yes" he said, "she always
had been glad that it would be

The international convention Of
the Disciples Of Christ looked to
its committee on recommends
tions today for a clear-cut posi-
ton on the racial segregation
question.
The answer appeared to rest
in what the committee would do
about two resolutions striking at
discrimination. One asks support
of the decision Of the National

where public places do not dis
criminate against race or color.
