Eisenhower Prepared to Ask Congress
For Constitutional Action on Subject

when both the President and
Vice President die or both
not Just one-are disabled.
The idea has been advanced
that Congress could pass law
providing for a commission
consisting of a bipartisan
group Of officials from the
executive and the legislative
branches of the Government.
with the Chief Justice in
cluded. The theory has been
that such a commission would
be required by law to seek
competent medical advice.
But this is an area in which
a form of political discretion
is involved and, when Con-
gress starts to legislate in that
area without express authori-
cation by the Constitution.
there can be plenty of legal
obstacles interposed which
might cause serious delays. if
not a big crisis, some day in
the operations of the whole
Government.
The decision has been wisely
reached. therefore, by Mr..
Eisenhower and his legal adj
viserS that the best thing to
do is to get some kind of spec
flied powers from the people
through a constitutional
amendment. There will be no
difficulty in setting up a system
of succession. where there is
a clear elimination of the Ex-
ecutive. such as in the case
OF death. resignation or re-
moval through impeachment.
But how can the word lin

left to a commission to deter

must be provided in the word

No law passed by Congress
under the present provisions of
the Constitution can take care
of the situation that would
ensue if a President of the
United States became dis
abled. 1t really requires an
amendment to the Constitu-
ton to deal with the problem.
This is the conclusion
reached by the Attorney Gen.
eral and is the basis for the
message which President Eli
senhower shortly will send to
Congress asking that a con-
stitutional amendment cover
ing the subject be adopted
and submitted to the States
for ratification.

mine whether or not PreSi-
dent was disabled mentally,
for example, can we'll be
imagined. Law suits would
emerge because laws signed
by an acting President"
would be challenged in the
courts as invalid.
Article II of the Constitu-
ton isn't at all clear. 1t says:
I'm case of the removal Of
the President from Office, or
Of his death, resignation, or
inability to discharge the
powers and duties Of the said
Office, the same shall devolve

munist China. Frances Pre-
mier Mollet stated in a tele-
vision interview during his Of
fetal visit to Washington that
France would favor Commu-
mist China's entry into the
world peace organization.
A number of Western Eu-
ropean countries which in the
past had remained adamant
IN their vote, told Washing
ton that they would follow the
example of Britain and France.
This attitude of our European
allies caused number of
White House advisers to sug-
geSt that it was high time for
the United States to give up
its opposition to Communist
China.
Despite her obvious weak
ness, Britain still has a po-
litical following in Western
Europe which, strange as it
may seem to the American
taxpayer. is greater than ours.
Britain is expected now to
range herself once more be-
hind America in her oppo-
sition to Communist China's
admission to the U. N. and our
diplomatic observers are con-
WINGED that the rest of the
West European bloc will fol-

here that the tWo-thirds ma

record vote on a tax privilege
for oil, which it refused to cut
out. matter that affects every
taxpayer in the country since
we must make up what oil
does not pay.
1t came about this way.
Two Senators, one a Repub-
lican and one a Democrat.
sought to reduce the 27i2 per
cent depletion allowance for
the oil industry. which is a
fiat deduction OF that amount
before taxes are computed.
For this purpose they offered
amendments to the bill before
the Senate which extends for
another year corporation taxes
at q So per cent maximum
rate and extends certain ex-
else taxes, which otherwise
would automatically expire,
also for another year.
The Republican. Senator
John j. Williams OF Delaware,
proposed a reduction to 20 per
cent in the depletion allow
ance. The Democrat, Senator
Paul Douglas Of Illinois, pro-
posed a graduated scale which
would give a greater depletion
allowance to small operators
than big ones, as the former
