| Description: | President Dwight D. Eisenhower is re-elected to the highest office in the land as world peace faces the greatest crisis since the second world war. His electrical victory comes after a tremulous campaign in which both the major domestic and foreign policies of his administration were put sharply an issue. A campaign in which the question of the President's health and stamina was put to rest by a searching physical examination by Ike's own vigorous campaigning. In the time of stress a great soldier and statesmen again receives the vote of confidence of his nation. Establishing shot - Throngs jammed together in a street in front of Republican Headquarters.
