VACCARO EN ROUTE TO INDEPENDE- ENCE, MO., WITH TRUMAN i®— Harry S. Truman, ex-President of the United States, took the long trip home today. After nearly eight years as the head of a great government,” he headed for Missouri in the role of “Mr. Truman, private citizen.” And alone with Mrs. Truman in the splendor of the private railroad car in which he had stormed the country in many a fiery campaign trip, he had opportunity to reflect again upon an eventful career and take thought of the future. For Harry Truman, despite his 68 years, has made clear that he will be a man to reckon with in the years ahead. His emotions were stirred, as they have seldom been stirred be- jfore, by the sendoff he got at Washington last night at the end of a trying day in which he surren- dered the presidency to Dwight D. Eisenhower, Hundreds of cheering Democrat- ie followers thronged around the rear platform of the presidential car which Eisenhower had placed at his predecessor’s disposal, Dis- trict of Columbia Commissioner F. Joseph Donahue described Tru- man a “the greatest friend” of “little people all over the world.” An obvious lump in his throat, the gray-haired Truman, his wife and daughter by his side, respond- ed that “‘in all my career, and it has been a long one, I’ve never had an experience like this.” “This is the first time I’ve had the experience of being sent home in a blaze of glory,’ he went on. “Yl never forget this if I live to be a hundred—and that’s what I expect to do.” For more than 30 minutes, peo- ple climbed aboard the car to pump: his hand, tell him goodbye ‘and wish him luck and predict |that the Democrats again will be restored to power. Democratic senators, the outgo- ing Cabinet, government workers and all sorts of people passed through the receiving line in such numbers that the Baltimore & Ohio’s National Limited pulled out of Union Station seven minutes late. Truman is due in Independence, Mo., tonight for a hometown wel- come. Meanwhile, his long-time secre- tary, Matthew J. Connelly, is fly- ing to Kansas City from Washing- ton to set up private offices for his boss in the Federal Reserve Rank Building. , Truman’s future plans, remained a subject for speculation.. But he may disclose them within a few days after he has had a rest, For the first time since he suc- ceeded to the presidency, Truman was powerless to do anything about this train. For it is a regularly scheduled passenger train of the B&O, and the private car hooked onto it. And Harry Truman is no longer riding on a special train subject to his orders. The train stopped first at Silver ||Spring, Md., where from two to three hundred people turned out to wave at him. He barely had time to wave back until it was on its way again. At Martinsburg, W.

Gone were the Secret Service agents who guarded his every step for so long. Missing were the Army, Navy and Air Force aides. No pilot car’rode ahead of this train to check the tracks. No rule of the railroads required that ev- ery bridge and trestle over which his homeward bound car moved be guarded by armed police and rail- road detectives, And Harry Truman, ex-Presi- dent, shorn of his presidenti trappings, stayed within his pri- vate car. For, while reporters rode two cars behind, they were few in number, and the club car immedi- ately next to his quarters was largely occupied by strangers. Reporters recalled how he loved to stroll the length of the special train, sticking his nose into draw- ing rooms and compartments to voice a greeting while en route to the engine to sit with the engineer for miles at a time, It didn’t matter too much last night for Truman was tired.

Then he had taken that historic ride to the Capi- tol with Eisenhower. What did.they talk about? “The weather and the crowd,” he told questioning reporters, ‘and how nice the turnout was. And how I hoped he would have a very suc- cessful regime.” After the big ceremony was over, he had driven immediately to Dean Acheson’s house in old Géorge- town, where approximately 300 of the outgoing secretary of state’s neighbors gave him an unexpected and roaring welcome.
