Today and Tomorrow By Walter Lippmann THE PRESIDENT'S LOAD Mr. Eisenhower's illness has posed in a new form the old problem of the President's pow ers. Since the early days of the govern ment Ameri cans have had differing opin ions about how much power ought to be vested in the President, how much in the Congress. But in this generation the ques tion of where power should be allocated has acquired a new dimension. We have become concerned also with the question of how much power the Presi dent, or Congress, can in fact exercise efficiently, responsive ly, and without subjecting the human beings in the offices to an intolerable strain.

VyE have been made aware of ' this new' dimension, that of the human capacity to carry the load, because the load has be come so enormously greater. It has become greater because of the wars of this century, be cause of the huge growth of the American population, of the American economy, and of American responsibilities. In the cases of Wilson, Roosevelt, and Eisenhower, we Have seen men break under the load. The load, as such, cannot be lightened; that is to say, it must be carried by someone. The needs of the people, the respon sibilities of the government at home and abroad, cannot be di minished. Almost certainly they will continue to grow larger. The Presidency, as we know it today, has been adapting it self o these greater burdens by becoming a .very different of fice that it used to be. The Presi dency is" no longer a man and his secretaries and a few assist ants. The Presidency is in it self a great department of the government. But for the de velopment of this new organ of the government, it would long since have become impossible to administer the government. . TN this field Mr. Hoover speaks with special experiences and great authority. He has sug gested i.that the load borne by the President himself could be lightened i Congress would create a - flew office that of, "Administrative Vice-President." Mr. Hoover thinks that of the 64 departments and agencies which now report to the Presi dent, or are supposed to, the Administrative Vice - President could handle more than half. Assuming that the Adminis trative Vice-President would be accountable to the President, and that in the greatest matters the President would be account able for the Administrative Vice-President, much good could, no doubt, come of Mr. Hoov er's proposal. BUT how much this would act- President is by no means certain and obvious. In the sense that the President would have less people he had to see, less papers he had to read and to sign, it would, of course, help to save his time and his energy. But is the strain of the Presidency due to the fact that the President is overworked? Or is it due to his having so much responsibil ity in matters which are so often matters of life and death? We must suppose, I would think, that what is so hard is not the work but the worry of being President." Mr. Eisen hower himself, for example, can not be described as, a President who has worked too many hours a day. But at least twice first in Indo-China and last win ter in the Formosa Straits he has had to make agonizing de cisions of war and peace. That is the kind of thing, not to men tion the harassment of Mc Carthyism, that must have taken its toll. Now there is no way that these hard decisions can be delegated. And since they cannot be dele gated, the President cannot real ly afford not to keep in very close touch with the events and with the acts that precede the crisis of decision. This means if not long hours, some very hard hours. And so, while the office of President can be made more ef ficient by administrative reform, by "streamlining" and the like, the office will always require the whole energy of a very ener getic man.
