National Affairs: On the Rebound

President Eisenhower’s popularity, down to an alltime low of 49% in April, is on the rebound. A Gallup poll survey on how Ike is doing his job drew this response last week:

Approve ……………………..54%

Disapprove ………………..31%

No Opinion ………………..15%

The survey attributed much of the President’s upturn to his all-out fight for Pentagon reorganization. The public, concluded the pollsters, likes a President who exerts strong leadership.
