| Harry S. Truman, seated at a desk, is talking about the Russian's participation in the war with Japan. Mr. Truman explains he wanted to keep the Russians in the war with Japan because it saved lives, our people, and the lives of our enemies. We wanted a situation where the Japanese would have to surrender as soon as possible, and we felt with Russian help, that would happen more quickly. | ||
