WASHINGTON, (AV-President
Eisenhower, reported making his
best progress yet at the end of a
week’s hospitalization, todaj^ han
dled “quite a bit” of White House
business including the signing of
21 documents.
James C. Hagerty, White House
Press secretary, said flatly that
Eisenhower has given no member
of his staff any hint regarding his
political future—specifically, on
whether he intends to stay in the
presidential race despite his new
illness.
As for columnist Stewart Al
sop’s report that Eisenhower in
tends to announce his political j
plans before leaving the hospital,
probably at the end of next week,
Hagerty said:
“If you people think I’m going
' to comment on what every col
umnist says, you’re nuts.
“Apparently the columnist has
a better crystal ball than I have.”
’ Hagerty announced that the
r President will hold separate con
ferences in his hospital room on
Monday with Vice President Nix
on and Secretary of State Dulles,
s It will be Nixon’s first visit
with the President since he was
~ taken ill last Saturday morning.

Air Force Hopes
To Have 600 B-52
Bombers by 1959
WASHINGTON, UP—Increasing
its goal by 100, the Air Force now
hopes to have 600 long-range B-52
jet bombers by 1959. *
Lt. Gen. C. S. Irvine, deputy
chief of staff in charge of Air
Force production, gave the figures
in secret testimony released in
heavily censored form Wednesday
by a special armed services sub
committee.
In his testimony, Irvine also ex
pressed the “personal feeling” th^s
country still holds an over-all lead
over Russian air power. But un
less positive action is taken, he
added, “they are going to be ahead
of us in all areas.”
The subcommittee, headed by
Sen. Symington, meantime sum
moned Trevor Gardner, former
research and development official
for the Air Force, to testify pub
licly on relative Soviet and U.S.
air strength.
Gardner quit as an assistant
secretary of the Air Force in Feb
ruary, protesting what he termed
a lack of emphasis on develop
ment of missiles and other new
air power weapons.
Irvine told the Senate subcom
mittee the old goal of 500 of the
B-52 bombers was increased re
cently when production goals
were boosted from 17 to 20 a
month. The planes, costing about
$8Vz million each, now are being
produced at the rate of about six
a month.
He disclosed also plans for an
eventual 400-plane fleet of KC-15
jet tankers to refuel the bombers.
