Harry Truman actually said...

"I hope that every country, old or new, will become a member of the Food and Agriculture Organization."

"I think that if we could discuss with the Russians our mutual interest in agriculture, it would not be so difficult to discuss our differences in some other fields."

"There could be no more appropriate time for the United States to be host to a United Nations meeting than during our cherished Thanksgiving holiday."

"We must look to food as a common tool for lowering such barriers."
