Republican Leaders Dare Democrats To Make Ike's Health An Issue
WASHINGTON —(U.P.)— Victory-confident Republican leaders dared the Democrats today to go ahead and make President Eisenhower's health a big issue of the 1955 election campaign.
GOP National Chairman Leonard W. Hall told a news conference he is sure the Democrats will "lose votes" if they carry through their proclaimed plan to challenge Mr. Eisenhower's physical fitness for another four-year term.
"The Democrats' attempt to make the President's health an issue will backfire on them." Hall predicted. "The American people simply will not stand for such tactics."
Democrats continued to serve notice they will pull no punches in making Mr. Eisenhower's health an issue. Gov. Averell Harriman of New York, a contender for the Democratic nomination, said it "looks more and more" like Mr. Eisenhower is becoming a "part-time president." Another typical comment came from Sen. Allen J. Elendorter (D-La) who said Mr. Eisenhower was "too cocky and overconfident" about his health in his broadcast to the nation last night.

Hearings Scheduled For Postal Rate Hike
WASHINGTON—(U.P.)—The House Post Office Committee voted today at least to consider President Eisenhower's request for a hike in postal rates. It announced that it will open public hearings on the controversial proposal March 13.
The administration has called for boosting the rates on first class mail from three to four cents an ounce and raising the air mail rate from six to seven cents. It also has urged increases in second and third class rates to help overcome the present deficit operation of the post office.
