Eisenhower Dwight D.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower Plans His Remarks at the Groundbreaking for the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts
It was one of the one of the most significant domestic events in the latter years of his presidency and was designed to be a model of urban development and to give the United States a cultural venue comparable or superior to those in other world capitals This is the first Eisenhower letter we have ever seen relating to the founding of Lincoln Center which perfectly reflected the prosperous can-do spirit of the age The Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts was one of the most significant domestic events in the latter years of the Eisenhower presidency. It perfectly reflected the prosperous can-do spirit of the age and had two central purposes. The first was to create a complex to make the performing arts accessible to the masses as well as to the elites and to give New York City as the de facto cultural capital of the United States a venue comparable or superior to those in other world capitals. The second was to be a model of urban development by remaking the Upper West Side. It was an integral part of - and a landmark for - the comeback of American city centers that remade the face of America. Lincoln Center's creation also marked the first time that a city attempted to use the arts as a catalyst for urban renewal and economic development on such a vast scale. From the arts end the vision was articulated by Leonard Bernstein conductor of the New York Philharmonic. He maintained that Lincoln Center was “a remarkable project†and would be “a great center of the performing arts the like of which the world has never seen.†Organizations that would find a new home there included in addition to the New York Philharmonic Orchestra the Metropolitan Opera New York City Ballet New York City Opera Repertory Theater of Lincoln Center and The Juilliard School. Groundbreaking for the Lincoln Center was set for May 14 1959 and President Dwight D. Eisenhower was invited to give some remarks and break the first ground. Howard S. Cullman was a philanthropist businessman and Broadway “angel†who served for 42 years as a commissioner of the Port of New York Authority and for a decade as its board chairman. He was also a fundraiser whose efforts helped establish Lincoln Center which was his pet project and had a hand in the planning for the groundbreaking. Typed letter signed on White House letterhead April 27 1959 to Cullman predicting rather too optimistically that he would not be required to say more than a few words at the Lincoln Center groundbreaking. “Thank you for telling me about Mr. Slocum. It is my understanding however that at the groundbreaking ceremonies of the Lincoln Center practically nothing in the way of a talk is expected of me. Someone - I believe C.D. Jackson - did send me a few suggested remarks but at the moment probably because of the rash of talks I have been making lately I think I should stick to a simple sentence.†The letter is signed “D.E.†Charles D. Jackson was a long-time Eisenhower advisor and speechwriter. Mounted to a light board. At the event on May 14 musicians representing the Lincoln Center constituents participated: Bernstein led the New York Philharmonic and the Juilliard Chorus and Leonard Warren and Risë Stevens both of the Metropolitan Opera performed excerpts from I Pagliacci and Carmen. A crowd of 12000 gathered to observe and take part. Then Ike spoke and unlike his prediction in this letter he had something to say and his words were moving important and articulated a sense of the time and of the moment that would be hard to match. "Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts†Eisenhower stated “symbolizes an increasing interest in America in cultural matters as well as a stimulating approach to one of the Nation's pressing problems: urban blight." He continued “At Lincoln Center Americans will have new and expanded opportunities for acquiring a real community of interest through common contact with the performing arts. American technology labor industry and business are responsible for the 20th Century freedom of the individual - making free a greater portion of his time in which to improve the mind body and the Spirit.†He boldly manifested that “the beneficial influence of this great cultural adventure will not be limited to our borders here…Here will occur a true interchange of the fruits of national cultures…Here will develop a mighty influence for peace and understanding throughout the world.†Ike then lifted a spade and broke the ground. As soon as he turned the first spade of earth Bernstein launched the orchestra and a choir from the Juilliard School into Handel's "Hallelujah" chorus. This is the first Eisenhower letter we have ever seen relating to the founding of Lincoln Center and a search of public sale records going back forty years shows no others unknown

Eisenhower Dwight D.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Original 1958 Christmas and New Year’s Message to Veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces
Sent to the national commander of the American Legion as representative of the nation’s veterans and never before offered for sale In the midst of the Cold War the former Supreme Allied Commander in World War II desires that “a just and lasting peace may someday be achieved on this earth†adding “You who have contributed deeds as well as words to the realization of this hope are aware of the magnitude of the task.†President Calvin Coolidge issued the first official presidential Christmas message to the American people in 1927. Written on White House stationary it was a response to requests for the President to send a holiday greeting. Presidents after him followed suit with some presidents additionally issuing a few targeted messages to certain segments of the American population. For example Herbert Hoover and and Franklin Roosevelt sent such messages specifically to disabled veterans. Truman issued ones to all veterans as did Eisenhower. This is Eisenhower’s 1958 message to U.S. veterans sent to the national commander of the American Legion as representative of the nation’s veterans of which Ike himself was one. It was written during the Cold War at a time when tensions were high and the Soviet Union’s triumphs in space had not yet been equaled by the United States. Many of the veterans had served under Eisenhower so he had a personal connection to them. Typed message signed on White House engraved letterhead Washington Christmas 1958 “TO THE MEN AND WOMEN VETERANS OF OUR ARMED FORCES†sent to the national commander of the American Legion as representative of the nation’s veterans of which Ike himself was one conveying his hope for peace and the aid of America’s veterans in achieving it. “Much of the glad anticipation of the Christmas season is born of the hope that with God’s help a just and lasting peace may someday be achieved on this earth. You who have contributed deeds as well as words to the realization of this hope are aware of the magnitude of the task. Your work as active citizens offers continuing proof of your determination to further the building of a peaceful society for yourselves for your children and for your neighbors around the world. In this spirit Mrs. Eisenhower and I join in sending you our best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.†In addition to this special message to veterans Eisenhower gave a Christmas greeting to the nation at large. It was notable for being the first radio broadcast from space and was transmitted to earth on December 19 1958 via short wave frequency unknown

Eisenhower Dwight D.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower Writes the Synagogue Council of America Saying He Wants to Make American Principles “better understood throughout the worldâ€
He believes religious organizations can "contribute to lessening world tensions and to helping solve our problems†Abraham J. Feldman was born in Kiev Ukraine and came to the U.S. in 1906 at age 11. In 1918 he was ordained as a rabbi at the Hebrew Union College and then served as fellowship assistant for Rabbi Stephen S. Wise at his Free Synagogue in New York. A year later Feldman went on to Congregation Children of Israel in Athens Ga. and then spent five years as rabbi to the Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel in Philadelphia. In 1925 Feldman was selected as rabbi of Congregation Beth Israel in West Hartford CT where he remained until retiring in 1977. While at Beth Israel Feldman was a leader not only in Connecticut Jewish life but also in ecumenical and secular organizations. In 1929 he was a co-founder of the Connecticut Jewish Ledger of which he remained editor until 1977. Feldman was prominent in Jewish organizations at the national level as well. He was a member of the Board of Governors of Hebrew Union College and served on the executive council of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations the oldest American federation of Jewish congregations and a long-time center of Reform Judaism. Long a member of the Central Conference of American Rabbis the principal organization of Reform Jewish rabbis in the United States Feldman rose in 1947 to become its President. From 1952-1957 he served as President of the Synagogue Council of America a joint organization of Reform Conservative and Orthodox Jewish communities which acted to coordinate Jewish life and activities in America. The organization did more than act as facilitator of activities and dialogue between the branches of American Judaism it made the world outside aware of Jewish concerns. In addition he participated in Zionist activities and was on the publications committee of Jewish Publication Society and the National Committee of the Jewish Book Council of America. A prolific writer Feldman penned more than 26 books pamphlets and articles. Rabbi Feldman had a small but significant correspondence from three presidents on such topics as the contributions of Jews to American society the refuge that the United States has provided and their advocacy and defense of American institutions. We recently obtained the letters directly from the Feldman family; they have never been offered for sale before. President Eisenhower had a strong belief that the national security was served by providing assistance to other nations and was in office just months before developing a foreign aid package that would further that goal. This his Mutual Security Program MSP provided billions of dollars annually to countries in Europe Southeast Asia the Middle East Africa and Latin America. Most of the money went to build up the military in those nations those a substantial sum remained for technical and economic development. The Administration knew that every year its MSP faced a rough reception on Capitol Hill where many in the President’s own party opposed foreign aid as a giveaway. So Eisenhower was always seeking popular support for the program support that would reach the ears of Congressmen. Typed Letter Signed on White House letterhead Washington May 29 1956 to Feldman as President of the Synagogue Council of America seeking his active participation in the MSP. “Our Government as you know has relatively modest apparatus for trying to make the United States’ objectives and principles better understood throughout the world. I have asked Congress for additional funds to strengthen this activity during fiscal ‘57. But clearly there will never be enough diplomats and information officers at work in the world to get the job done without help from the rest of us.

It is my intention to call upon all U.S. citizens to help their Government in this task; but before doing so I would like to bring together on June 12th at the White House a group of distinguished American leaders to assist with the organization of various phases of the work.

I have asked my staff to send you details on the June 12th meeting within a few days.†unknown
