Condor on Eisenhower's Health

It is natural for ofiicialdom
In Britain to keep quiet
about personal health mat
tiers affecting a Prime Minis
ter, but in America the OPP
posite now Is the practice.
There sometimes Is a delay,
as happened for a few hours
this week when the White
House staff described the
Presidents indisposition as a
slight chill" and gave no
further details until the next
day. BUT before "a hours
had passed all the facts were
disclosed on the authority of
the physicians in attendance.
Nevertheless, Senator Mon
roney Of Oklahoma, Demo-
crat. was quick to issue a
public criticism of the White
House for not telling the
whole story promptly.
The Republican Senator'S
of yesteryears were not so
demanding. No such outcries
were heard when the Demo-
cratic administration with
held the true facts about
Mr.. Roosevelt's health,
though on Capitol Hill dur
ing March, 1945, at least one
Democratic Senator - David
Walsh of Massachusetts,
who was close to the Bos-
ton doctors, relayed some Of
the same information to his
colleagues in Congress and
to a few newsmen. They
didn't print it.
The best way, it is often
argued, is to tell all the facts
at the time they are happen
ing. One cannot help wonder
ing. however, what might
have been the advantages to
the nerves Of the world, and
to the panicky sellers in the
markets, if somehow the
news Of the Presidents Chill"
on Monday had been with
held at least until after he
had recovered sufficiently to
go to church on Thanksgiv-
ing Day. The case for delib-
erateness, with full details a
few days afterwards, will GER
tainly gain adherents now
versus the demand for hour
by-hour bulletins and voluble
press conferences that specu-
late on what Divine Provi-
dence has in store.

1t won't happen this year
or next. but eventually the
rapid development of the
techniques of modern war
will bring about real unifica-
ton of United States armed
forces.
This will happen because
it will be unacceptable. AS the
intricacies of modern en-
gines of war increase, as they
are doing right now at a
breathtaking rate. it will be
found that there no longer
exist logical reasons for a ma
tional defense separated into
an Army, a Navy and an Air
Force.
The investigation Of the
Nations missile and rocket
program going on in the
Senate is bringing out the
fact that three services are
wing with each other for
victory in the missile field.
Most bitter. of course, is the
struggle between the Army
and the Air Force for con-
troll Of the program. AS of
this date. the Air Force seems
to be out in front in the COM
petition. But the advent Of
the Russian Sputnik gave
the Army's missile experts
another chance to prove their
claim that the Army develop
ment program is way ahead
of the Air Forces.
But the details Of the pres
ent-day rivalry are really
unimpcrtant What is signif-
icant is the fact that all the
services are going to be using
missiles in the next war, and
it will be truly impossible to
conf1ne control of the Ma
tons missile defenses to any
single service. The same will
be true of other weapons and
other strategies and tactics.
The war of the future will be
an about war. and the fight
ing Of it will be a universal
task. Differing commands
and different uniforms will
only confuse the situation,
and there will be no time for
confusion in this day and age.

be bitter opposition on the
part of the brass to the in

, There is one thing that viii
have to be conceded by par
tisans and captious critics
the Republican administra-
ton certainly has shown un-
paralleled candor in disclos-
ing to the American people
the facts concerning the ill
nesses Of President Eisen-
hover.
Only this week-in an As
ISOLATED Press dispatch from
Boston - are the American
people being told for the first
time that Franklin D. Roose-
welt suffered a series Of
strokes" and that the off,
cials of a Democratic admin
istration continuously con-
cealed the truth from the
people over a long period.
The news now is distributed
nationally that DR.. Charles
w. Robertson. assistant pro-
fessor of surgery at Boston
University. who has made a
special study of the facts
about the illness of Presi-
dents, wrote in the Boston
Medical Quarterly as follows:
1T seems quite plain that
Mr.. Roosevelt suffered a series
of small strokes in 1943 and
1914. This general downward
trend continued to such a de-
gree that a full-time Secret
Service bodyguard was placed
over Vice President Harry
Truman about March /, 1945.
(Mr. Roosevelt died April IL.
1945.)
Roosevelt had one small
cerebral vascular accident in
March, 1945. and, while con-
valescing from this. suffered
a terminal stroke as he was
having some sketches made
for a portrait"
DR.. Robertson goes back
even to earlier periods in Mr..
Roosevelt's administration as
he adds:

summer Of 1888 he suffered
the first of a series of small
strokes from which recovery
was quick and complete. It

in 1883 a severe one. The

Coll on Mental and Political Scientists
Urged to Head OFT Threat of War

So we make bigger and bet
ter missiles. fill the air with
them. and acquire almost
pinpoint accuracy.
So what? So then?
We might even be able to
hit. not just a whole city, but
one neighborhood, say the
New York financial section,
or the White House. or the
Capitol, or the Kremlin in
Moscow, where Good Old
Joe" used to be. or maybe
where Nikita Khrushchev
hangs out for his toddy.
So we make more and more
missiles and rockets and pile
up atomic bombs and put
them on missiles as warheads.
Then, human nature being
what it is, and the few people
who have the decision being
human. someone or other can,
more easily than you would
think, just flick a lever be-
cause of some strange quirk-
maybe pique, maybe what we
call national pride. Then one
missile with a warhead pro-
vokes another-and that is it.
Before it is too late, why
don't we stop a minute and
figure?
Instead of concentrating
entirely on the sort of SCI
entists who deal in missiles,
rockets, earth satellites, nu-
clear weapons and such, why
don't we call in also another
sort of scientist? These are
the scientists in the field Of
human behavior. sometimes
called psychologists or psy-
chiatrists. who try to under
stand human beings, and why
they act as they do. and see
If they can't help us to keep
from destroying ourselves.

clans themselves-as states

calling, and they are proud
