Truman Spends
(Continued from Page 1)
Mr. Truman told newsmen:
1. That he does not regard
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower as a
candidate for president, but ag
reed a lot of people have been
trying to make him one ever
since Eisenhower left the army.

himself had disavowed presi
dential aspirations, and said that
his word is good; that it always
has been.
He said he and the general
are on the friendliest terms and
always have been.
2. David E. Lilienthal is stay
ing on as chairman of the atom
ic energy commission until Feb.

lished report that Louis Johnson

fense by mid-summer.

whether a three-day work week
in the coal mines will provide
enough coal for the nation's
needs. But he added that if he
finds out there is an emergency
he will take the necessary action.
He would not say whether the
short work week decreed by the
United Mine Workers amounts
to sufficeint seriousness to bring
the situation within the scope
of the Taft-Hartley law.

President Truman would not
offer any opinion at his news
conference yesterday on wheth
er the three-day week was caus
ing a fuel emergency.
