Eisenhower Feels Stronger Clean Bill At White House
President Eisenhower, expected to fully recover from a stomach ailment, spent about an hour and a half at his desk and crack joked about needing a few steaks. He signed a large appropriation bill for State and Justice plus the federal judiciary and asked Congress for a supplemental $30 000 for the Senate restaurant. He dictated letters, met aides, and indicated readiness to resume work, reporting a comfortable night and normal vital signs. He ate milk toast and chicken broth as he recovered with reports noting no link to his 1955 heart attack or ileitis seizure and that blueberry pie was eaten earlier and meals were relatively light recently.
