Description

Harry S. Truman thumbs through a newspaper at St. Louis Union Station as he and Mrs. Bess Truman await their breakfast order -- scrambled eggs and bacon -- today. The former President had little to say about his speech to the nation tomorrow night, but told newsmen his comments on the Harry Dexter White case would give them "something to write about tomorrow night." The Trumans, home-bound after a New York visit, changed trains here en route to Independence, Missouri. From: Houston Post.
