About
(1) [starts with no sound, silent pictures of Truman, staff, then sound when Truman gives speech] "Early in the A.M. President Harry S. Truman leaves Blair House, his new temporary home, and briskly walks to the White House. Mathew J. Connelly, his confidential secretary, and Leonard Reinsch, his press and radio relations man, are busy at their tasks. The President nominates John W. Snyder, St. Louis banker, to become Federal Loan Administrator. Mr. Truman confers with the U.S. delegates to the forthcoming Golden Gate conference, then later, in the presence of Congressional leaders, he signs a bill extending Lend Lease. 348 members of the press, a record number, crowd into his office to attend his first press conference. In the evening, the President goes on the air, to talk to U.S. service men all over the world. He explains he is an ex-serviceman, and that he is carrying on, as the entire country expects them to do." (2) Archbishop Spellman opens drive for Catholic Charities. (partial newsreel)
