PRESIDENT JOHNSON
Recovery Slow, Say Doctors (N Z.P.A .-Reuter—Copyright) BETHESDA (Maryland). October 19. President Johnson is recovering more slowly than his doctors expected. The White House said he had no official visitors scheduled for today, the twelfth since his operation for removal of his gall bladder.
A spokesman told a press conference last night that it might be more than six weeks before Mr Johnson was fully recovered.
He said he “guessed" the President would stay in hospital for at least 14 days. Yesterday afternoon the President took a half-hour stroll in the hospital grounds.
