relatives and associates but closed
to the press. This was to meet the
Constitutional requirement that the
Presidents term end ct noon on
January 20.
On Monday. the ceremony was
repeated ct the Capitol In style
after which there was the tradt-
tional Inaugural Parade featuring
1900 participants and "the largest
float In the world" and. In the
evening, q salvo Of inaugural balls.
In his inaugural address the
President concerned himself almost
entirely with his major mission
world peace-and his formula for
achieving it-full and generous
participation in the affairs Of the
world.
1--WE seek peace" he said. 'know-
ing that peace is the climate Of
freedom. And now, as in no other
age, we seek 1t because we have
been warned by the power Of mod
ern weapons. that peace may be the
only climate possible for human
life."
Though his address was broad
and inspirational rather than spe-
cific, there could be no uncertainty
about his disposal Of whatever last
shreds of the old Republican isola-
tionism might have been still
clinging to him. He declared:
THE economic need Of all notions
in mutuoI dependence makes isolation
an impossibiliy; not even Americas
prosperity could long survive IL other
motions did not prosper. No notion con
longer be Q fortress, lone and strong
ond safe. And any people, seeking
such shelter for themselves, can now

Implementing his implied offer Of
generous aid to the free nations
and those who want to be free will
require all the tact and leadership
Mr.. Eisenhower can summon, With
each recent Congress. the resistance
to foreign aid programs has in
creased, and this Congress may be
expected to be the most stubborn
yet in Withholding the approval
needed to send aid on its way.
At 66, Mr.. Eisenhower became the
oldest man ever inaugurated to q
second term in the White House.
However he appeared robust as he
went through the inaugural cere-
mony, the long ordeal Of reviewing

Two Dangers Absent

Two Of the basic sources Of in

budget and an expanded money
supply, are not to be found in the
1856 economic picture. Two con-
secutive balanced budgets - likely
to be followed by third-have had
their proper stabilizing effect. A

on the Eisenhower resolution.
The Secretary was not without
support in the hearing, held before
the Joint Foreign Relations and
Armed Services Committees. Re-
publican Senators Aiken of YER
mont and Wiley Of Wisconsin &C.
cused the Democratic critics Of risk
ing dangerous delays.
Mr.. Dulles hit the same theme in

committee members that such a

indefinite delay on the new policy
but would reopen old wounds be-

said.

President would spend the 5000 mil
lion of foreign aid money from
which he wants restrictions re-
