Description

San Francisco, California. Former President Harry S. Truman, arm outstretched, waits in vain for a dollar bill tossed from a window above. Mr. Truman rang doorbells in San Francisco today to kick off a four-day nationwide "Dollars for Democrats" drive. The dollar bill failed to arrive when it got lodged into a fire escape above. One of Mr. Truman's aides retrieved it. From: Houston Post.
