U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower during his 130th press conference in Washington DC, United States. Donald J. Gonzales, a newsman, says that when the President said he was unaware of the possibility of a Soviet statement on ending nuclear weapon tests, the U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles said just on the previous day that this has been discussed in the previous days. The pressman asks the President for his reaction to the Soviet announcement. The President replies that he did not say that he was unaware of anything about it but did not have any proof that it was going to occur. He says that he cannot say anything more than what the Secretary said after complete discussions. The President further says that they had discussed this as a possibility on their own side, that is unilateral abandonment of tests and decided that it was not good for the United States at that time. Pressmen seated during the conference. Another pressman, Henry N. Taylor, gets up and puts forward a query to the President. He asks that last week the President had told them that he was convinced any nuclear test could be detected if there was a test ban. Yet the President, in the response to Russia, says test bans could be evaded in secrecy. The pressman asks the President if he could clear it. President Eisenhower says that the U.S. Secretary of State Dulles might have said that they are not certain there have not been tests, particularly underground tests or so small and in remote regions where there would not be debris and instruments would not be sensitive enough to pick them up. The President says he does not believe that explosions can happen in huge megaton character and not have evidence of it. Cameramen taking pictures.

U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower's 175th press conference in Washington DC, United States. One of the pressmen present at the conference asks the President if he could give his reaction to the House Committee testimony dealing with fixed TV quiz shows. The President says that he shares American general reaction of bewilderment that people could conspire to confuse and deceive American people. He says that as soon as he heard about it he asked the Justice Department to see whether there were any laws violated and what they could do and whether they should propose any new laws. The President says that the Justice Department tells him that it would give its conclusion soon. The Federal Trade Commission has moved into it since this seems to be deceitful advertising and they seem to have some function in correcting it. The President also says that everybody was astonished and dismayed when they heard about it and he thinks that the producers, performers and the actors and the public would be satisfied only when the mess is cleared up. The pressmen take down notes during the conference.

U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower answers a query on the spirit of Camp David during a press conference in Washington DC.

U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower's 175th press conference in Washington DC, United States. One of the pressmen asks the President that in the discussions about a date for an East-West summit conference with General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Mr. Nikita Khrushchev the point arises to preserve the momentum at the end. The Russians talk about the need to preserve the spirit of Camp David. He asks the President what he would like to maintain -- the spirit of Camp David or the momentum. The President says that he has heard of the expression the spirit of Camp David but he does not know what it means. He says that whenever he and Mr. Khrushchev spoke, they spoke in principle and in generality more. There was an agreement when they spoke about problems which the ministers will very likely take up. The President says he thinks that the spirit of Camp David must mean that they can talk together without being mutually abusive. About momentum, he says that that was a word used in discussions on development of foreign relations and agreements. If momentum is kept up it helps not to be rushing into things without being fully prepared.
