White House Gets
Lincoln furniture

The decorating talents Of
Mrs. Eisenhower are not being
spent Just on the Gettysburg
farm.
The Presidents wife recent
ly has been picking fabrics and
supervising the restoration Of
several pieces of furniture for
the Lincoln room.
Last summer, an anonymous
donor in London offered to
return four pieces Of furniture
In his possession that he be-
heyed to have been acquired
by the White House during
the Lincoln Administration.
They include q setee, two
armchairs and a slipper chair.

After it was decided by
Government Fine Arts Com
mission that the pieces were
probably authentic they were
accepted through United States
Ambassador to Great Britain
Winthrop Aldrich.
The pieces were in great
need Of repair. but Mrs. Eisen-
hover saw to their restora-
ton. With the help Of Mr..
David Finley Of the Fine Arts
Commission picked the mate
rails most typical Of that era.
The settee and armchairs
are upholstered in. a rough
gold fabric and the slipper
chair in a light olive green.

II President Eisenhower
doesn't hurry up north, the
vicinity around Thomasville,
Ga. may get awfully crowded.
Thomasyille is mighty close to
Florida, and Just about every
other member of Ike's official
family who turned up at the
COP. celebration yesterday
afternoon said he was headed
for Florida. |"
Vice President Nixon had
been expected at the big Tooth
anniversary party held at Re-
publican National Committee
headquarters but he didn't get
there because it was reported
that he had gone to Florida"
Deputy Assistant to the
President Maj. Gen Jerry"
Persons arrived at the big
gathering in mis- usual fine
spirits and sporting a snappy
vest printed with fishing flies.
I'm leaving for Florida to-
night" he said, "and Len Hail
is going with me-"
How come all Of you are
going to Florida which is so
near Thomasville?" Jerry was
asked. Il swear it's pure CO.
incidence" he grinned. We're
going fishing" Quipster Fred
Seaton of the White House
staff said they'd probably all
run out Of gas just as they got
IN the vicinity OF a certain
place.
Before long, Secretary Of
Defense Charlie Wilson walked
into the comfortable offices of
Chairman Len Hall. "I'm leay-
ing for Florida tomorrow" he
said.
All ] can say is, If there's
not a big powwow going on in
Thomasville today, the BOYS
have thrown up a smoke screen
for no good reason.
Mrs. Eisenhower's secretary
Mary Jane McCaffree, came in
and was confronted with the
question: HAS the President
told Mrs. Eisenhower If he's
going to run?"
Il haven't asked her" was
her quick reply.
No Dropping Spirits
II the banner-lined, hand
shaking 5-to-8 to-do yesterday
was any indication OF future
events, then President Eisen-
hover Is certainly going to
run. There were no dropping
spirits apparent at the cake
filled welcome to the Tooth
Birthday Of the Republican
Party"
Cake-filled is right. There
was q 300-pound birthday cake
and everybody was filed with
it. Red letters on top of the
roughly 4x3-foot icinged con-
coction read: peace, Prosper
ity, Progress 1856, 1856" It
was fianked by pictures Of Ed
win d. Morgan, first chair
man. and Leonard Hail, cur
rent one.
Assistant President" Sher-
man Adams. the man with the
power and the answer, no
doubt. to the riddle, ducked
in and out so fast there
wasn't time to see II he, too,
was going to Florida. Nor did
the opportunity present itself
to poll him on the preferred
method OF breaking the big
news.
The Presidents Secretary,
good looking Bern Stanley,
says he has told the President
he thinks he should break
the news to the people on a
Nationwide teleyision hookup.
Republican Whip Of the
House Les Arends said, II just
hope he makes 1t soon." Then
he added. 1T belongs to the
people. He should make 1t
on TV."
How did Chairman Hall
think he should make 1t? ANY
way he wants to make It," was
the cheerful response.
How to Break News?
Jerry Persons also thought
the first announcement should
be on TV and not at a press
conference. And ditto Bertha

Norfolk to Test
New Way to Get
Hurricane Dutu

NORFOLK. May 8 (P).-Radal
and electronic scanning equip
ment at the Norfolk Weather
Bureau will be used today to
track the test-drop of an auto
matte weather recording device
off the Virginia Capes.
The test is part of a project
which may lead to the use OF
high altitude rockets to take pic
lures of entire hurricanes cover
ing hundreds of square miles.
Today's drop is designed to
test the scanning equipment,
The recording device will be re-
leased from a plane at about
$4,000 feet.
1t is hoped that use of the
rockets to take photographs will
will enable forecasters to obtain
much new information about the
behavior of hurricanes. Scan
ming equipment would be used to
follow the rockets so they can be
recovered.
