become the nation's oldest presi
dent before he completes a new
four year term.
"Under normal circumstances,
political parties probably would
not choose such a man." Williams
said. "But the Republicans prob
ably are going to force him to
run."
Williams' statements provoked
soeedy response from Republican
Govs. Langlie and Theodore R.
McKeldin of Maryland.
Langlie said thathv raising the
issue of Eisenhower's age Wil
liams was "slanderine some of the
finest workers and finest minds of
the country."
"In our present stage of national
nealtn, the President is not as oia
as men of SO or SS who held the
iob years aro," I.anslie said.
"Anvone is being political or naive
when he talks about the Presi
dent's being too old to serve after
the iob he has done.
McKeldin said he regards the
renomination and reelection of Ei
senhower and Vice President Nix
on as "mevitable." add'ng that he
is 100 per cent for such a ticket
and has no asoirations of his own.
"So far as the President is con
cerned, age is not a matter of
vears. a matter of spirit," he said.
"The President's spirit is as young,
inspiring and stimulating as it wps
years ao when he first began to
serve his country.
"The complete knowledge of his
job that he has gained, plus the
confidence the leaders of the world
and the peoDle of the United States
have in him makes his renomi
nation. and reelection inevitable."
