Butler Claims Ike Made Health Issue In Coming Election Chicago (U.R) Democratic National"Chairman Paul M. But ler said today that President Ei senhower himself has made his health a campaign issue. Butler said he has been told that some doctors have "ridi culed" some of the medical re ports bein issued about the President. Butler gave his views at a news conference called after a morning session of the Demo cratic party's Executive and Convention Arrangements com mttees. He said the presidential health question was not dis cussed in the committee meeting. The Democratic chairman said that since ha arrived in Chicago Monday he had heard that there was talk about the presidential illnss reports among some doc tors now gathered here for the annual convention of the Ameri can Medical Association. Doctors Critical "Some doctors," said Butler, "have been quite critical of some of their brethren and I think it should be a matter of concern for the AMA whether any of their members are being in volved in politics." He said he had heard that doctors here for the meeting had discussed the reports issued by physicians around the President before and after his recent operation. The doctors here, he said, think the other doctors "apparently do a terrific job of saying that anyone who has had a heart attack and an. operation for Crohn s disease Is much bet ter qualified physically to be President than anyone else." Iletis sometimes is known as Crohn's disease, taking its name from that of Dr. Burrill Crohn, one of the surgeons who attend ed Mr. Eisenhower. Ridicules Medical Reports Butler said "whether or not they (the people) are buying that, I don't know. Whether it is deliberate I don't know. But it surely is apparent in the press." Doctors here at the AMA, But ler said, had "ridiculed" some of the medical reports. He went on to say that "the whole medical hsitory of the President's cases has been so completely handled in terms' of propaganda by Mr. Hagerty (James Hagerty, presi dential press secretary) who is a very expert propagandist that certainly one is entitled to have some serious doubts in his own mind about the medical opinions." MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEH Butler was asked if he' was making the President's health an issue and he replied the "health of the President has been made a major issue by his own re marks, his own words and his own conduct, and by members of the White House staff who have propagandized the matter from his pulse to other matters not ordinarily made public." He did not explain the latter reference. HOTEL BREAKFAST AND LUNCH 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. ASHLAND PLUS l-iksM.-iiiiliilT"'-rJ f fciH in 35? f ' 5 JO to 9:00 P. M.
