    NEW YORK, DEC.8 -- BACK FROM EUROPE -- Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn) waves as he leaves plane at Idlewild airport today, returning with his wife, Muriel, from a European tour. He told newsmen he believes the western powers will not be ousted from
    Berlin if a "united policy is maintained and we don't lose our tempers." During his tour he had an eight-hour interview with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev in Moscow. (AP Wirephoto) (See wire story) (gfr21050JH) 1958.BACK:Senator and Mrs. Humphrey
    Arrive Back HomeHumphrey Brings Mr. K's Message. Additional Information: Hubert Horatio Humphrey, Jr. (May 27, 1911 ? January 13, 1978), served under President Lyndon B. Johnson as the 38th Vice President of the United States. Humphrey twice served as a
    United States Senator from Minnesota, and served as Democratic Majority Whip. (wikipedia)

    I'm having little doubt that Khrushchev was due, and probably landed, at Idlewind aka JFK Airport at some point during this era.
    Was there a traffic jam in Harlem that's backed up to Jackson Heights?
