Efforts are being made to secure a leader for the Boy Scout group at this time. Tnat. In bnci. .sums up Eisen hower's evolution from a general woo contended inilittry men should keep out of politics to a political tlcdUinst destined lo lead the ' Republicans to their first national political victory in 2U years. The Eisenhower who fought the late Sen. Robert A. Tall for the Momimnion In 11152 was a tar cry from the one who was saying, as cariv as Sep;. 28. 194C: "There is no possibility of my ever being connected with any political office." STAND CONTINUED He continued to take this stand through 1948, when moves to draft him got under way in both the Republican and Democratic par ties. Hopes of his backers soared when he let his name remain be fore the voters in that year's New Hampshire primary. But the draft moves, collapsed when Eisenhower, In a celebrated letter to publisher Leonard V. Finder of the Manchester (N.H.) Union Leader1, put It as flatly as ever: "I am not available for and could not accept nomination to high political office." That was in January 1948. Six months later, in a similar state ment, he said he could not "at this time" gel into partisan poli tics. Time went on. Elsenhower, as president of Columbia University, made speeches. He assailed high taxes and unbalanced budgets, cracked at the Truman adminis tration without mentioning it by name. " Beginning In 1950, after his appointment as supreme com mander of NATO, he was visited by scores of Republicans urging him to seek the presidency in 1952. Increasingly, they described them selves as encouraged by the pros pect that he would. ANOTI1ER LETTER Finally, in another letter to Finder, Eisenhower said he would accept a nomination if it were "a matter of dutv." And he made It official with his January declara tion that he would accept the GOP nomination If it were offered to him.- . Early in his White House days I subject. He Rave his supporters mind. may. One thought ran thiougn' To manv. Elsenhower sooke that alternate cause for hope and dis-i day in the accents of a man who manv of his pronouncements: he didn I think anyman is "indis pensable." By mid-1955 every word, almost every grhnarc of the President's was studied t.s a possible clue to his intentions. He toured New Eng land, said with a grin lhat he wondered if he could listen in one ' some METHOD iciiu 10 an me nice unngs aiae feels he must lay down a burden. He did nothing to encourage his backers when, in a speech to "Salute to Eisenhower" dinners across the country, he said he'd help the 1956 GOP campaign all he could whether as a candidate or as "a worker in the ranks." Sherman Adams kept saying about new Hampsnire. TIPOFF? Was this a lipoff? A pleasantry? The latter, said Eisenhower he'd onlv been kidding. But he sounded a somber and. as it turned out. prophetic note at a meeting with some Ohio backers Aug. 3. He spoke o( his "duty." But he also mentioned the physical erosion that a president suffers. No man, lie recalled, has reached 70 in the White House. He himself wo -ld be 70 three months before the end of a second term. Less than two months later, he suffered a heart attack. And. while the nation prayed for his recovery, the second-term question immedi ately took on a grim new dimen sion. It was not until Jan. 8 that he mentioned the subject publicly. Then, in a chat with reporters at Key, West. Fla.. Just before return ing to the White House, he said. "My mind at this moment is not fixed ... to such an extent that it can't be changed." And he added his decision would depend in part on consultations with trusted ad visers IN PRIMARY Ort Jan. 19, meeting with the press in Washington, he announced he was leaving his name In the New Hampshire primary but that any other Republican should feel free too to seek backing for the presidency In this first-ln-the-natlon voting test. 'T could devoutly wish." he said, "that there were some method by which the American people could . . . point out the path of my true duty." But the question, he said, was one lhat had to be de cided by himself alone. Then, when the spirils of the "We like Ike" contingent were at a low ebb. the doctors came through with a medico-political Valentine (the date was Feb. 14 which sent GOP hopes soaring and stock prices upward with them: Eisenhower, reported a panel of six doctors after a sort of "fi nal examination," has rallied so well from ihr heart attack that there Is no medical barrier to a second term. Dr. Paul Dudley White, the eminent Boston special ist, said Eisenhower should be able to carry on an active life for anoth er 5 to 10 years. SKATELAND ROLLER RINK Martin and Shasta Way OPEN . . .
