They fulfilled their assignments despite great handicaps and the risk of reprisal from lawless elements. *National Reporting: * * James Reston of ''The New York Times'', for his distinguished national correspondence, including both news dispatches and interpretive reporting, an outstanding example of which was his five-part analysis of the effect of President Eisenhower's illness on the functioning of the Executive Branch of the Federal Government. *International Reporting: * * Russell Jones of United Press International, for his excellent and sustained coverage of the Hungarian revolt against Communist domination, during which he worked at great personal risk within Russian-held Budapest and gave front-line eyewitness reports of the ruthless Soviet repression of the Hungarian people. *Editorial Writing: * * Buford Boone of the ''Tuscaloosa News'', for his fearless and reasoned editorials in a community inflamed by a segregation issue, an outstanding example of his work being the editorial entitled, ''What a Price for Peace'', published on February 7, 1956. *Editorial Cartooning: * * Tom Little of the ''Nashville Tennessean'', for ''Wonder Why My Parents Didn't Give Me Salk Shots?'' published on January 12, 1956 *Photography: * * Harry A.
