Harry Truman: “IT IS a very great pleasure for me this morning to have the privilege of meeting you gentlemen.”

It would have involved us in all-out war in the Far East, and we have been strenuously trying to avoid that all the time.

This ceremony could be no more than a magnificent burial.

I feel the Committee has done a thorough job of investigation and I wish to call your attention to these suggestions, some of which, I am sure, would be helpful.

I have great faith and confidence in our civil servants.
