These youthful champi special recognition, ns of free On Tour Of Duty Here Key Westers, who got a good idea of Truman’s fight-; : ing qualities during his 11 visits here, are confident he will be able to take care of himself against five Republican senators or a dozen GOP speakers of any type. More so than any other politician in the history of the United States, Truman has the knack of hitting back harder than he is hit. And the more he is hit the more and harder he hits back. _ What are Republican leaders saying about Truman’s hard hitting? Nothing, except abusive generalities. The Republicans ery out, “Lies, lies,” and produce no evidence to prove they are lies. "As was duly reported in The Citizen in an AP dis- patch, the TRUTH that hurt the Republicans more than anything else was Truman’s reminding his listeners what snhower had said about “security” in 1949, when he s president of Columbia University. He admitted that e had said at that time that “If all Americans want. is scurity, they can get it in prison, with three meals a day and a roof over their heads.” But, three years later, Candidate Eisenhower has re- tracted that statement, adding that he favors more and! better Social Security. i These and other truths about Eisenhower, Nixon, the Republican vice presidential carfdidate, referred to as “gutter politics.” This is the same Nixon who has not yet told the American public where he got that $31,000 he paid on homes in Washington and California; this is the same Nixon who sajd he is not going to divulge his in- come-tax reports for the last 10 years, because he has al- ready “bared” his financial status to the American peo- ple. He has not done any such thing. The $18,000 “ex- pense” account was blanketed and was reported to be okay by Republican auditors hired by Republican head- quarters. And Nixon spoke about the homes he had bought faster than a thoroughbred coming down the homestretch. Instead of explaining to the American people where he} got the $31,000, he fell to abusing Truman and Stevenson. “Our Harry” is making the fur fly, and quite a bit | of it will come off those five Republican senators who are trying to cushion his hard hitting. e Politics is a subject on which any. fool will expound.
