Soviet Loses Vote
The council met at the request
of the United States, Britain and
France to consider "the situation
created by the action of foreign
military forces in Hungary in
violently repressing the rights of
the Hungarian people."
WASHINGTON (INS) - Presi-
dent Eisenhower, rated in "excel-
lent" health by his doctors, flew
south Monday in an attempt to
crack the solid south as he did
in 1952.
White House press secretary
James C. Hagerty said the pres-
ident received a complete report
on the tense Israeli situation be-
fore taking off in the Columbine
III for Miami.
The president, who is accom-
psnied by Mrs. Eisenhower, will
deliver airport campaign speeches
at Miami, Jacksonville, Fls., and
Richmond, Va.
He was returning to Washing-
ton late Monday to keep in inti-
mate touch with the powderkeg
situation in the middle east and
the Soviet satellite nations of Po-
land and Hungary.
Health Called Good
A panel of eight doctors who
supervised the president's med-
ical examination over the week-
end reported the 66-year-old chief
executive "gives every appear-
ance of being in excellent health."
The doctors found no trace of
any heart condition, beyond the
war left by Eisenhower’s heart at-
tack of Sept. 24, 1955
As for his June 9 intestinal op-
eration, the medical report said:
"The president has made an ex-
cellent recovery from the opera-
tion for an acute intestinal ob-
struction due to an old ’burnt out'
ileitis. His bowel function is now
perfectly normal.”
The chief executive had prom-
ised to undergo a full-scale exam-
ination before election. He has
said that he would withdraw in-
stantly from the presidential race
if he ever found his health would
prevent his carrying on the burden
of White House duties.
Eisenhower himself reported
that he was feeling fine as he left

JERUSALEM, Israeli Sector, (AP)—Israeli secur-
ity authorities said Monday two Egyptian destroyers
and other warships apparently are headed toward
Israel. The informants said the vessels, five or six
in all, left their base at Alexandria Monday morn-
ing and, so far as it is possible to determine, are
moving toward rapidly mobilizing Israel.
JERUSALEM, (A) — Israel mobilized its reserves
and the United States began the evacuation of some of
its citizens from four middle east states Monday in the
biggest Arab-Israeli war scare since 1948.
Israel, anouncing the callup of reserve battalions in
what it termed a “partial mobilization," denied it had
Any aggressive intent.
Tension in Israel has mounted since Jordan, which
has the longest frontier with Israel of any Arab state,
formed a joint military command with Syria and Egypt
last week. A pro-Egyptian parliament was elected in Jor-
dan a week ago.
President Eisenhower, taking a grave view of the
mobilization, sent two messages to Israel Premier David
Ben-Gurion, cautioning him to avoid acts “which would
endanger the peace." Washington reports said Israel had
mobilized from 150,000 to 200,000 men along her frontiers.
