Ike Pleads For Health Program at Alfred Smith Dinner
President Eisenhower appealed for enactment of a voluntary health insurance plan as an alternative to socialized medicine. He announced the proposal would be resubmitted to the new Congress and spoke to about 2,000 donors at the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner at the Waldorf Astoria. He outlined government underwriting of up to 75 percent of losses to private and nonprofit insurers expanding health coverage. He planned to campaign again in Gettysburg to back Republican candidates in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. He praised Senator Irving Ives and urged GOP workers to stay determined for November.
