Description
President Harry S. Truman and First Lady Bess Truman stroll home from Memorial Hall, where they vote. Both seem in a jovial mood. They voted in the Missouri Primary. Newsmen and members of the Chief Executive's Secret Service detail accompany them as they walk the block and a half to the "Summer White House" on Delaware Street in Independence, Missouri. The President left immediately for Washington. Same as 68-1507 but better print. From: Houston Post.
