Paper Demands McKay Resignation
DENVER - THE DENVER POST, a longtime supporter of President Eisenhower, has demanded the resignation of Douglas McKay from the Cabinet post of Secretary of the Interior.
"McKay has been anything but an asset as Secretary of Interior," the Post said.
"McKay hasn't helped the Eisenhower Administration articulate a water and public works policy that makes sense."
"The people of the U. S. need a Secretary of the Interior who will act boldly in the demonstrated public interest--one who will not retreat behind the famous double-talk about 'Socialism,' the pre-eminence of local interests or the frightfully abused phrase 'free private enterprise.'"
