Show Can't Count the i President Out President Eisenhower, judging by the first pictures taken of him since his heart attack, shows the effects of his recent illness. The President is thinner in the neck and face, and also shows the effects ef-fects of loss of weight in his arms and fingers. However, on the whole, Mr. Eisenhower looks excellent ex-cellent and seems to have lost little of his morale and charm. There is much current speculation specu-lation over the question whether the President will submit to an operation, comparatively rare, which could cure him completely. Only about a thousand of these operations have been made, and they completely repair damage done by an attack such as that experienced by the President. While we have no way of knowing know-ing what Mr. Eisenhower's decision deci-sion will be, it is at least possible that he will undergo the operation and be able to continue his career car-eer as if no heart attack had occurred. oc-curred. Whether this will mean he could be a candidate in 1956, we are not prepared to say, but it is a question being widely discussed dis-cussed at present. Since the President is making a good recovery, it is impossible to count him out of the political picture completely in 1956 as yet, as so many people are now inclined in-clined to do. |
