With the bell poised to ring for
the second round, political observers,
both Republican and Democrat, are
speculating as to what shall be the
degree of President Eisenhower's
success with Congress.
A look at the records shows that
Mr., Eisenhower has established a
much higher percentage as regards
approval of measures or proposals
sent to Congress than did President
Harry S. Truman. However, anyl
comparison must include the re-i
minder that Mr. Eisenhower placed
only 44 specific proposals before
the 83rd Congress, while Mr. Tru
man’s first session proposals were a
much heftier 2563 requests,
Of the 44 legislative proposals sent
by Mr. Eisenhower to the 83rd (‘on-l
gress during its first session, Con-l
gress acted favorably on 82, which
gave the new President a renpecuble!
score of 72.7 per cent. Mr. Tru
man’s highest percentage, 47.7 per|
cent, was in 1947, His average for
his last six years in office was not
too different—42.9 per cent.
Truman received the nod of ap
proval from Congress most often on
legislation concerning military and
veterans’ matters, establishing a
61.8 per cent score during his entire
tenure in the White House. Presi
dent Eisenhower made only one pro
posal in this category, which was
approved,
Both presidents were more succes!
ful with Congress in matters of
foreign policy than they were in the
domestic field, although Eisenhower
fared better than Truman in both.
Mr. Eisenhower scored 76 per cent
in foreign policy against a mark °f‘i
72.2 for domestic policy. Mr. Tru
man's record was 59.2 per cent on
foreign policy during his first ges
sions, compared with 40.1 for do
mestic poliey.
Labor proved a tough field for
both Presidents, although, like in
military and veterans’ matters, it's
too soon for true comparison. Mr.
Eisenhower submitted only one re
quest-—revision of the Taft-Hartley
Act—which failed to win action. Mr.
Truman received favorable action on
about 25 per cent of his labor pro
posals during his first sessions
The complete story of President
Eisenhower's success with Congress
will not be availabl¢” until completion
of the second session, convening Jan
uary 6, and any special sessions that
may prove necessary. Several pro
posals, including Hawaiian statehood,
already part way through the legis
lative mill, will improve his average
if they receive a friendly nod from
Congress.

relocate some of the agencies in the
interests of efficiency and economy.
Taste Differences
Tests given to children of eleven
show that boys and girls admire en
tirely different qualities. Boys rated
each other highest for aggressive
ness, boisterousness, skill in group
games, fearlessness, and readiness
to take a chance. The girls put the
ability to be friendly, pretty, tidy,
quietly gracious, and docile at the
top of the list.
