PRESIDENT IN MISSOURI
WASHINGTON. — The next two
months of President Truman’s life
are Oiled with junkets similar to that
which he has just taken through the
heart of the Mark Twain country.
At first, newsmen covering the
White House figured that he took
these trips for political reasons, but
they have now changed their minds.
The President takes these junkets
because he loves them. Never since
that fateful April day when he took
the oath of office has he had more
fun than at Caruthersville, Mo.,
where he swapped yarns with the
local postmaster, got up at 6:15 to
“spit in the Mississippi river, and
ran out in the street to ring the bell
of a small-scale locomotive.
The locomotive was being conduct
ed through the streets of Caruthers
ville by the ’Forty and Eight” club
of the American Legion (commemo
rating the ”40 men—8 horses” ca
pacity of French freight cars in the
last war,. Suddenly the President
of the United States spied it. Per
haps it reminded him of 1918 when
he unloaded artillery horses from
those same French freight cars in the
Weuse sector
Anyway, with a shout to War
Mobiliier John Snyder, who once
worked behind the cashier’s
cage of small-town Missouri-Ar
kansas banks, Harry went over
to the locomotive. Right then
and there the war mobiliier and
the President of the United
States had the time of their lives
staging a locomotive bell-pulling
contest.

BOMBS FOR CONGRESS
Six members of a congressional
committee sailing to Europe last
August were nearly scared out of
their wits while on the Queen Mary.
Headed by Rep. Louis Rabaut of
Michigan, a subcommittee of the
house appropriations committee had
debated whether to fly or to go by
boat. Finally they decided to sail—
but they wished they hadn’t
The group which decided to enjoy
some relaxation on steamer chairs
included Dean Gillespie of Colorado,
Robert Jones of Ohio, Butler Hare
of South Carolina, Thomas O’Brien
of Illinois and Judge John Kerr of
North Carolina. Kerr had argued
for the boat trip and finally con
vinced his colleagues.
The congressmen were just begin
ning to relax on their first night out
from New York when an army of
ficer came to Chairman Rabaut with
a disturbing message.
"The skipper thought you gentle

“ and Japan is still at war with the

Rabaut called his colleagues to

Judge Kerr’s first comment was: “I
wonder if the skipper has ordered
airplanes to hover around the ship.”
All were alerted the entire night
while the ship’s crew searched un
successfully for the bombs. No trace
of them was ever found, but the rest

hoped for was not achieved until
