(UPD--The subject of foreign affairs occupied center stage Thursday at a hour session President Dwight D. Eisenhower held with top-ranking members of his administration. Eisenhower indicated a Republicans should be lour-square behind President Kennedy on foreign policy, while reserving the right to "intelligent criticism." Eisenhower made the observation at a press conference following a luncheon in his Gettysburg College office at which he was host to eight former cabinet members and 13 lesser officials. "We are trying to be constructive and not destructive in our criticism." the former President said. He added that the assembled guests would "try to be completely bipartisan and stand behind the President on foreign affairs." Eisenhower noted "this is a time of crises and not the time for divisive voices." Newsmen found it difficult to pin Eisenhower down on what was discussed at the confab but he did admit the talks covered farm policy, economics and Republican Dolitics as well as foreign affairs.
