Republican leaders agreed to-

conference at Key West yester.
day.
Some of them interpreted a:
q hopeful sign the President:
statement that he had not made
up his mind. and would be
guided in his final decision by
the state of his health and what
he considered his duty. Particu.
larly, they were impressed by the

If the President can stand
such a work load and at the same
time receive a clean bill of health,
from his physicians. many Re-

Cause for Optimism
One Republican leader whC
believes that the President IL

out that the President told the
reporters that if he knew today
his decision, he would announce
1t without delay.

the announcement until he hai

til he has the final opinion Of hi:
doctors on the extent OF his re-
covery.
The longer the President de-
lays, I believe. the more likely
the answer will be yes when i
comes"
1t was learned in a quarter
close to the President that 8
month or six weeks ago the
President was talking peSsimis,
tically about running again.
Republican National Chairman
Leonard w. Hall declared en-
phatically that nothing the
President told the reporters hao

League to Study
FShockingly High
Infant Mortality

The "shockingly high infant
mortality rate in the District
of Columbia" was viewed with
alarm by the District League
of Women Voters yesterday,

health clinic has a waiting list
of six months to a year. Our
members want to find out how
our city can give decent health
services to prevent illness and
cut the toll of disease.
The league also voted to
continue its work in mobiliz-
ing the community on behalf
of improved schools and to
study the need for more child
guidance services.
Other league projects for
the coming year will be in the
fields of improved coming regu-
lationS, water conservation,
pollution control in the Po-

Care and Feeding
OF BobY Squirrels
X. F.. Arlinoton

(To L. B. B.. Washington
Dear Madam: In reply to
your letter about the baby
animals in your woods have
raised three or four families of
baby squirrels and have had a
great deal of fund doing it.
Like you, I did not know what
to feed them, so / called the
zoo and talked to a DR.. Walker,
who gave me the formula for
their food. I enclose it in
this letter. and I am sure the
formula would do for any wild
thing.
An outside screened i'm
porch is an excellent place to
keep them. Just give them a
wooden box with some rags in
it and they will cover them
selves up at night. To feed
them, buy some doll feeding
bottles at the ten cent store.
At first they will drink about
two bottles each, and they
must be fed every two hours,
but not through the night.
Warm the food before you
feed them. but test it on the
inside of your arm. They do
not like it too warm.
After about three weeks they
will be ready to eat shelled
nuts. raiSins and sometimes
stale bread. Keep water handy
for them. Also. ALWAYS keep
a log of wood where they can
chew on it. A squirrels teeth
will not develop properly if
they have nothing to chew on.
They can be turned free
when about three months old.
But please let them go in a
safe place! DR.. Walker told me
they do not want more at the
ZOO, as they are overrun al
