There was a lot of discussion in Washington about what Mrs. Eisenhower would do about that dress - when she learned that ninety other women had one just like it. Now the First Lady's secretary says that Mrs. lisenhower will DRESS - 2 keep on wearing the dress, just as if nothing had happened. And 1n Washington, it's believed that all the other women with that model - will keep wearing it too. ~~~,t.~A.~11-,1, · -4,loM-e...J o.R.R 10 +~-~, 1ztt ~/~ 1£<,;N.,.,J~\
