Harry Truman

Harry Randall Truman (not to be confused Harry S. Truman) was an elderly man who lived in a lodge near the foot of Mount St. Helens. He became something of a celebrity when he refused to leave despite warnings from scientists. Truman died along with 56 other people when Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980.

I wrote the song and still have a few copies on 45 disc. That's about it. I still get letters and requests from all over the world for a copy of the song, I choose to just have it as a memory and a tribute to the spirit of Harry instead of marketing it for money. Thanks for asking. Ron Allen callenremax@comcast.net

Vladimir Zworykin's most important contribution was the invention of the iconoscope, the first practical electronic television camera tube. This invention laid the foundation for modern television technology and significantly influenced the development of television broadcasting.

Margaret Lindsay Murray Huggins was a British astronomer known for her work in astrophotography and spectroscopy. She collaborated with her husband, William Huggins, in pioneering the use of spectroscopy to study the composition of stars. She was the co-founder and first female member of the British Astronomical Association.

In the 1930s, major astronomical discoveries included the discovery of Pluto in 1930, the identification of the first Quasar in 1932, and the discovery of the first interstellar molecules in space in 1935. Additionally, the concept of an expanding universe was also proposed during this decade.

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

Dec. 6. 1950

Mr. Hume:-

I've just read your lousy review of Margaret's concert. I've come to the conclusion that you are an "eight ulcer man on four ulcer pay."

It seems to me that you are a frustrated old man who wishes he could have been successful. When you write such poppy-cock as was in the back section of the paper you work for it shows conclusively that you're off the beam and at least four of your ulcers are at work.

Some day I hope to meet you. When that happens you'll need a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below!

Pegler, a gutter snipe, is a gentleman alongside you. I hope you'll accept that statement as a worse insult than a reflection on your ancestry.

Yeah it was the right thing to do but he did not only do it for that. President Truman did it for his country so that there would be equality of opportunity for all human beings. He risked being reelected but he said "and if that ends up in my failure to be reelected, that failure will be in a good cause."

Yes, President Truman was a Democrat. He served as the 33rd President of the United States from 1945 to 1953 and was a member of the Democratic Party throughout his political career.

Some character traits of Truman Burbank in the movie "The Truman Show" include curiosity, determination, and resilience. He is curious about the world around him and begins to question his reality, leading to his determination to uncover the truth. Despite facing numerous challenges and obstacles, he displays resilience in his pursuit of freedom and finding his own identity.

Harry Truman was called "Mr. Citizen" because he portrayed himself as an ordinary citizen who was thrust into the presidency. He came from a humble background and emphasized his down-to-earth nature and relatability during his time in office. This nickname highlighted his image as a regular person who was serving as the leader of the country.

After meeting with Soviet leader Joseph Stalin and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill at the Potsdam Conference in 1945, President Harry Truman believed that maintaining a strong stance against the Soviet Union was necessary. He saw the Soviets as a potential threat and wanted to contain their influence and expansion through a policy known as containment, which later became a cornerstone of his foreign policy approach during the Cold War.

Harry Truman was the first Cold War president, and as a result, his chief foreign policies all involved the destruction of communism in some way. Most importantly, the Truman Doctrine changed America's foreign policy. It called for intervention against aggressive moves by the Soviet Union on smaller countries. On the domestic front, he took steps to move the economy out of the post war doldrums, but was met with impatient labor actions that pitted him against the labor unions. He attempted to push forward civil rights, and other domestic issues, but these were mostly greeted with apathy. However, he is the president who desegregated the military.

well actually it states somthing along the lines of this

At the present moment in world history nearly every nation must choose between alternative ways of life. The choice is too often not a free one. One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and religion, and freedom from political oppression. The second way of life is based upon the will of a minority forcibly imposed upon the majority. It relies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio, fixed elections, and the suppression of personal freedoms. I believe that it must be the policy of the United States to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures. I believe that we must assist free peoples to work out their own destinies in their own way. I believe that our help should be primarily through economic stability and orderly political process.

No, Harry S. Truman was not impeached by Congress. While there were calls for his impeachment during his presidency, particularly due to his controversial firing of General Douglas MacArthur during the Korean War, these calls did not result in impeachment proceedings.

A. Philip Randolph threatened President Truman with a mass march on Washington, D.C. by 100,000 African Americans in 1941 if the military did not desegregate. Randolph's plan put pressure on Truman and convinced him to issue Executive Order 9981 in 1948, which called for the integration of the armed forces and prohibited discrimination based on race, color, religion, or national origin.

True. The Fair Deal was an ambitious economic program proposed by President Truman in 1949. It aimed to address issues such as expanding Social Security, providing affordable housing, increasing the minimum wage, and advancing civil rights. However, many of Truman's proposals faced opposition and were not fully implemented.

Harry S. Truman's middle initial "S" did not actually stand for anything. His parents named him with the middle initial "S" to honor both of his grandfathers, Solomon Young and Anderson Shippe. The "S" was simply meant to represent both of their names without favoring one over the other.

It took Truman several months to officially proclaim the end of World War II because there were ongoing negotiations and agreements being made with Japan. The formal surrender of Japan occurred on September 2, 1945, after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and subsequent military pressure. Truman wanted to ensure that all loose ends were tied up before making the official announcement.

Harry Truman's Funeral at the Truman Presidential Library in Independence MO was limited to the 250 who could be seated in the Library's auditorium. Most of the guests were family and friends, but some did stretch back to his presiedential days. The original plan for his Funeral was an elaborate State Funeral in Washington DC which we have seen recently with the deaths of Presidents Reagan and Ford. However, by this time Mrs. Bess Truman was quite elderly and frail, and her daughter Margaret decided this would too much of an ordeal for her mother. So it was decided that everything would be held in Independence. Mrs. Truman remained at home resting when the public visitation began the day before the Funeral. Margaret, her husband Clifton Daniel and her four sons were there. President and Mrs. Nixon and Former President and Mrs. Johnson came that day to pay their respects. After visiting the Library and spending some time at President Truman's casket they called on Mrs. Truman at the family home in Independence. Mrs. Bess Truman went on to live ten more years, dying at the age of 97 in her home in Independence. Her Funeral was held in the Church she attented, Trinity Episcopal Church. There the guest list was limited to 150, most of whom were relatives and local friends. Three First Ladies did attend her Funeral however, Betty Ford, Rosalyn Carter and Nancy Reagan. Mrs. Truman was then buried next to her husband in the Courtyard of the Truman Library. In February of 2008 the ashes of Margaret and her husband Clifton (who died in 2000) were buried near her parents in the Courtyard.

EO9981 refers to Executive Order 9981, which was signed by President Harry S. Truman on July 26, 1948. This executive order called for the desegregation of the United States Armed Forces and paved the way for racial integration within the military. It prohibited discrimination based on race, color, religion, or national origin within the military, marking a significant step towards civil rights reform.

Truman's whistle stop campaign tour in 1948 took him through a total of 28 states. During the tour, he traveled over 31,000 miles and made hundreds of speeches from the rear platform of his campaign train.
