Nov. 8, 1961 - Following were the highlights of President Kennedy’s news conference today:
Nuclear Testing — The Soviet Union holds the dubious distinction of having created more atomic fallout than the other three nuclear powers combined.
Foreign Affairs — Praises Chancellor Adenauer as a great European and says that East Germany is far more militaristic than West Germany.
Politics — If recent political victories had gone to the Republicans, they would be interpreted as a stunning defeat for his Administration.
Anniversary — A year after his election, he finds his Administration’s accomplishments good.
Fallout Shelters — Hopes to have a booklet of instructions ready by the end of the month.
