| Harry S. Truman at desk describes General Eisenhower not coming to breakfast on Inauguration Day (January 20, 1953). Mrs. Truman had prepared a nice breakfast and it was traditional that the incoming President come in. General Eisenhower waited in the car. Mr. Truman has a cute expression on his face by the end of this story. | ||
