President Harry S. Truman is shown speaking from the train to a crowd at Helper, Utah. He is working his way back eastward after a vigorous campaign through the west for Illinois Governor Adlai Stevenson. He attacked Senators Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin, William Jenner of Indiana, James P. Kem of Missouri, and Robert A. Taft of Ohio, as men who have taken over GOP Presidential nominee Dwight D. Eisenhower. He asked how the General could be elected "with the crew he has got around him" and it's "terrible record."

President Harry S. Truman speaks from the back of his special train today in Parkersburg, West Virginia. He is denouncing Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, Republican candidate for President, and John Foster Dulles, GOP Foreign Policy Advisor, accusing them of talking loosely about rolling back the iron curtain to liberate the enslaved peoples of Eastern Europe. This, the President said, increases the risk of atomic war with Russia. With the President (center) on the platform are: Sen. Harley M. Kilgore and Rep. M.G. Burnside, Democrats from West Virginia.
