Next Summer White House
May Be in Pennsylvania
Gettysburg. Pa. (U.R) Eis
enhower supporters In this his
toric battlefield community are
telling visitors that the next
"Summer White House" will be
on an 189--acre farm about three
miles south of here.
The farm was bought by Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower for $44.
000 in November of 1950. The
general never got a chance to
occupy his rural retreat because
the press of national duties sent
him to Europe two months la
ter to take charge of the army
of the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization. If Eisenhower should be nom
inated at the Republican conven
tion in July, and is elected Pres
ident in November, it is possible
that the eight-room red brick
dwelling on the farm would be
come the scene of historic events
either as a summer White
House or as a rural retreat. It is
only a two-hour drive frm Wash
ington. The farm lies about 2,000 feet
west of the southern rim of Sem
inary Ridge, Gen. Robert E.
Lee's strongpoint at the Battle
of Gettysburg. Less than a mile
north lies the area from which
Pickett launched his charge that
failed to dislodge the troops of
Gen. George E. Meade.
The Eisenhower farm it has
no formal name is purely a
working establishment now. It
has shown a modest profit under
the direction of Brig. Gen. Ar
thur S. Nevins, Ret., who has
been a close friend of Eisenhow
er since their World War I days.
The largest structure on the
farm is a red and blue barn
about three times the size of the
main house. Windmills draw the
water from the earth.
The biggest money-maker on
the farm is a herd of 12 milk
producing Holsteins and ten
Guernseys. There are also 11
calves, eight of them heifers. Al
together the herd produces 60
gallons of milk daily.
At present about 1,000 white
Leghorns produce some 15 doz
en eggs daily. The yield la ex
pected to jump to about 30 doz
en in August and September.
AH of the acreage not used
for pasture is cultivated, either
in corn, wheat, hay or oats.
One of the reasons that Eisen
hower chose to make his perma
nent home In Pennsylvania was
the deep attachment he formed
for the rolling central Prennsyl
vania country when he served at
nearby Camp Colt during his
early days in the Army.
Another reason Is that Penn
sylvania is Eisenhower country
from way back. His ancestors
originally settled In Pennsylvan
ia between 1730 and 1740. His
father, David Eisenhower, spent
his boyhood at nearby Elizabeth
ville, Pa. A brother, Milton S.,
is president of Pennsylvania
State College. Another brother,
Earl, lives at California, Pa.
Should Eisenhower become
president and a war ensue, he
would be close to Camp Ritchie,
Md., where the war department J
is reputedly building a bomb- j
proof Pentagon refuge to be us- i
ed in case of hostilities. 1
Also nearby is the mountain
retreat of President Franklin D. i
Roosevelt the famed Shangri- i
La. Eisenhower's predecessor as
chief of staff of the United
States army, General George C.
Marshall, lives about 50 miles
away at Lccsburg, Va.
