Presidents stamina, stead

ness"

There was an urgent need
to bring the non-military
agencies of Government into
readiness" for any emergency
which might develop, yet the
President did not want to
cause alarm" he added.

announcing the Cuban quar-

The plan was carried out
completely within 48 hours,
an excellent record, consider
ing that agencies had had
only a month to put into ef-

the administration, the
speaker asserted.
