clan to be on the road to recovery, the
process will be slow and tedious. The
president. it was reiterated today at
The White House, must resign to strict
observance of the physicians orders to

physicians he called in more than a

selves to terse bulletins twice day as
far as the public is concerned. That
they are satisfied with the progress

from the spirit Of optimism that per-
