THE US PRESIDENT
IS INCAPACITATED?
By JOHN HEFFERNAN
Washington, May 20.
The constitutional problems involved if the President of the United States becomes temporarily unable to fulfil his duties are likely to be vigorously debated here in the near future.
President Eisenhower has announced that he will shortly send to Congress for its comments the results of a study undertaken by the Attorney- General, Mr Herbert Brownell, at the President's request..
The issue arose in 1935, when provide that the Vice-President the President was stricken by a could sumunen a joint session of heart attack and was prevented Congress to proclaim, on his from oxercising the functions of own determination, the "in- his office while in hospital, ability" of the President, and to The Constitullon at prevent take over the executive branch provider that the Vice-President of the Government with or shall, when the President is in without the approval of a "stalo ot inablity", perform | Congress,

A third suggestion, which will undoubtedly be reviewed, is that Congress should establish 11 Presidential Powers. Com- mission to determine when there is Presidential "inability".
Tho Commission would be composed of the Chief Juvilce, of the United States, the CWD senior Associate Justices of the Supreme Court; the Secretaries of State and the Treasury; the Majority and Minority leaders of the Senate; and the Speaker and Minority Leader of the House of Representatives,
In making this proposal, Mr Beverly Smith, Washington Editor of the Saturday Evening Post, suggested that the
