Hall met with newsmen during a break to an aB-day meeting of the GOP arrangements committee to complete plans for the Repub lican national convention begin ning Aug. 30 in San Francisco. He said ft is “not news" that the Democrats are trying to emphasize Mr. Eisenhower's heart attack and recent operation as a campaign issue. “It's apparent," he said, “they have been trying to find an issue for the past two years and haven't found one." Asked if he thinks the health issue would be effective. Hall re plied: “In my opinion it will not because of the completely frank way to which the White House has reported on the President’s health.” The OOP meeting received no word from the still - hospitalised President on his future plans. The leaders went ahead on the assump tion that the party will renominate Mr. Eisenhower and Vice President Richard M. Nixon.

This reflected con cern among some leaders that it might be difficult to hold a na tional television interest. Th« White House said the Pru dent probably vt” 'r- - full report tomorrow on the plans.
