are evergreens for year-round

Unemployment Drops 100000, President Reports

WASHINGTON, R-The White House described as "nonpolitical" Monday nights TV-radio cabinet session on the new European De- fense Alliance and the Presidents later speech on economic condi- tionS.
 Eisenhower reported in the latter speech unemployment has dropped 100000 to a new total of 2,7OO,OOO. This put it below 3,000,- 900 for the first time this year.
 The employment situation is a major issue in many key indus trial states.
 The Presidents discussion of the unemployment situation came in an address to members of the National Industrial Assn. at a Mayflower Hotel dinner here.
 Eisenhower called 1854 "our most prosperous peacetime year in history" but added that Gin certain industries and localities some unemployment still exists as the aftermath of war and in- flation."
 He went on to say "good prog ress is being made" toward reduc- ing joblessness. He said Gin this month, it Unemployment has fallen from 3,100,00O to 2,7O0,000."
 White House Press Secretary James Hagerty said the President has received tremendous con- gratulatory response to Monday nights first televised cabinet meeting in history.
 The White House telephone switchboard was flooded "all (Monday) night" with congratu- latory calls and there were great number"-no one has yet counted them-of telegrams Tues morning, Hagerty said.
 He said most of the messages said, Thanks for opening the cabinet and letting us see how it operates"
