PAGE TWO Prexy Featured In New 'Digest' The Man Closest to the President, is the title of an article con cerning Dr. Milton S. Eisenhower in the June issue of the Reader's Digest, on the newsstands today. In the three and one-half page , article, author Stanley High says "the most influential person in the new government is not, of ficially, in the government at all. He is not and never has been in politics. He is `Prexy' Milton Ei senhower, Ike's younger brother." Although the two brothers are nine years apart in age, says High, they "think alike and their think ing has led them to like conclu sions and convictions." Ike's mid dle-of-the-road doctrine was large ly worked out by himself and Milton years ago, "in batting ideas back and forth." "Few men know more than Mil ton Eisenhower knows about the vast mechanism of our federal government," the article reports. "He has been a college president for ten years, but his previous record of government service covered 19 years 2 --eight of them under Republican, 11 under Dem ocratic administrations and an amazing variety of jobs." At 24, graduating from Kansas State College, after winning top , honors in diplomatic examina tions, Dr. Eisenhower was sent to Edinburgh as vice counsel. After two years there he was appointed administrative assistant to the Secretary of Agriculture. Dt. Ei senhower served under four dif ferent secretaries, and was Land- Use Coordinator when he resigned from the department in 1942 be cause he did not agree with the "political pervision" of the agri cultural program, . During the war, a mong other things, Dr. Eisenhower directed the reloCation of_ the West Coast Japanese and directed the Office of War Information In 1943 he became - the president of the Kansas State College. Today Dr. Eisenhower works many hours on the President's Advisory Committee on Govern ment Organization: The results of its • work can be seen in the re organization of the Department of Agriculture, and in the lifting of the Federal Security Agency to cabinet status. According to High, Dr. Eisen hower regards as perhaps his most important assignment the firm eetablishment of the middle road dOctkine as the basic ideology of the Eisenhower administration. "If that z happe,ns," High observes, "the United :States and the rest of the free world beset - so long by extremists, will:be gainers." Botany Professor • To Retire in June Dr. Julia M. Haber, associate profeisor of botany, will retire June 30, President Milton S. Eis enhower announced yesterday.
