President Eisenhower Comments At his press conference, President Dwight D. Eisenhower reasserted his longstanding insistence on advance progress as a pre-condition to a summit meeting. He said that Nikita S. Khrushchev could not force him by 'bluff' or 'blackmail' to attend unless there were grounds for believing that 'real measures can be discussed profitably by all of us'. A smidge of racial integration - attendees at press conference include African American man. Eisenhower answers questions (nat sound).
