Eisenhower makes progress as hospitalization continues
President Eisenhower, after a week in Walter Reed Hospital for an intestinal blockage, handled a substantial amount of White House business, signing 21 documents. White House secretary James Hagerty said no staff hints about his political future have been given, and denied a columnist's claim that an immediate political decision would be announced before discharge. Doctors reported his night’s rest among the best since surgery, with plans for hospital room talks Monday with Vice President Nixon and Secretary of State Dulles. Surgeon Dr Ravdin left the hospital for a long weekend at his Philadelphia home.
