Harry Truman actually said...

"I am not asking for a Big Three meeting."

"I would be very glad to see any members of the Big Three at any time."

"I am going to reappoint J. Russell Young as Commissioner of the District of Columbia; and Rosel Hyde to the Republican vacancy on the Federal Communications Commission."

"If they were joining the progressive Democrats to put over some of my measures, I would be very happy to have them help."
