sweeping the runways to moderate.
Eisenhower showed no concern
during the wait aloft, chatting with

200 greeted him at the airport and
another group cheered him as he
entered his hotel for a few hours
sleep before the conference.
At Boise. Eisenhower told a
police-estimated crowd of about
20,000 persons:
we nave had lor a long time
a government in power that ap
plies the philosophy ot the left to
government."
And he said centralization of
power In Washington has become
so great that the government "does
everything but come in and wash
the dishes for the housewives."
The general spoke from the steps
of Idaho's Capitol in making what
