The President listened attentively as the senator urged that no one wants war and that Russia by this time knows we mean business and will not be bullied. “Why you arrange to meet Stalin at some neutral place like Berlin or Teher- an?” the senator urged. That familiar stubborn look im- mediately blazed in Truman’s ey “Let him come to Washington, he said indignantly. “It's time that so-and-so showed some respect for the United States. I'm tired of being treated like Harry Truman instead of the President of the United States If he has any- thing to say to me, he can come here.” X over | A STASSEN TO MOSCOW Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota was campaigning in that state shortly after his fellow Min- nesotan Harcld Stassen had pro- posed that he go to Moscow to confer with Stalin, With Hum- phrey was Orville Freeman and Congressman John Blatnik, who asked: «I wonder what would happen, Hubert, if you or I wrote a letter ! to Stalin suggesting that we come to Moscow for a conference. The press would go wild denouncing us. But it's all right if Stassen doges it.” “They'd even go wild if Secre- tary Acheson or President Truman did it,” concluded Humphrey That conversation may have spired Humphrey to get off following punch line in a speech that night. “One day Stassen shouts ‘send the atom bomb to Moscow,”” proclaimed Humphrey, “next day he's back with ‘hold the bomb—send Harold Stassen W Moscow!"” in- the gets up and CAMPAIGN FUNDS ion of political con- with the clerk of resentatives shows some interesting tions.
