0:00   Harry S. Truman, talking to the off-screen director, speaks of the Farm Bureau, who were not strong for his election. He says "Faron [?]" spent money to beat the Brannan Plan, and knew if he did that "he could beat me." This was probably used in preparation for MP81-16, "Where Tillage Begins."
