Nixon Seeks Speedier Aid for Refugees
Nixon Seeks Speedier Aid for Refugees "Vice-president Nixon reports to President Eisenhower on the results of his inspection trip to refugee centers in Austria. Scenes show Nixon's tour, including his interviews with refugees and Austrian officials." Footage looks a little dark. Richard Nixon and another man walk toward White House; newsreel cameramen aim their cameras. Nixon and President Dwight Eisenhower, and a handful of other men, chat for the cameras. Flashback: Various shots of Nixon greeting people, cars driving around, and Nixon shaking hands with Hungarian (?) refugees; the women wear scarves on their heads. Various shots of refugees including two Koreans who had been prisoners before escaping. The trip seems to have been Cold War diplomacy.
