Adios, Eisenhower. Your job
has been difficult from the be
ginning, I know, and one I would
not like to tackle. You have
been behind the 8-ball from the

honesty and with a deep love

Wjßorld peace has been a passion
and a goal for you, and your ef

brought the world to some meas

ditions have not always been to

of shoulders can carry all the

A recent news story from a 1

At the same time, however, 1

for another year any action on
a recommendation from their
legislative committee to revamp

The recommendation for boost

by the legislative committee, ]
which sought approval for sub- j
