For still another thing. while he is "no orator but a. plain blunt man who loves his friends," he dearly loves to crate, Actually. he is a much better speaker than he pretends to be. a circumstance , which in itself makes him unusual among politicians. Normally. it. is the other way round.

It is a good guess that Mr. Tru- man got 9. I096. deal of pleasure out of the incident that led him to the microphone on Monday night. It gave him a chalice to speak roughly about the present administration. something which in all probability he has been itching to do for some time past. Perhaps "roughly" is not quite the proper word (at the moment I can think of no better one to use) for the ex-President has never been noted for handing out very rough treat- ment. He can bluster with the best of them. but there is always a trace of humour to keep his anger from getting out of control. In this he is something like Sir Win- ston Churchill and that is as far as the likeness goes. at least ora- toi-icaily masking.

No doubt a good many people felt soruetihing akin to pity for Mr. Truman all last week as they read accounts of the near-innuendoes which kept flying in his direction. but there was really no need for it. He likes nothing better than an opportunity to prove the truth of one of his favourite exertions: "I can take care of myself!"

The thing that impressed me most about the tail-the-facts speech was not its contents-these were in no way surprising-but the con- fident, almost jubilant. manner in which it was delivered. For a half- hour or so Mr. Truman was on the hustings again. kliowing full well that many thousands of life- long Democrats who had stepped out of the party line a year ago this month would be listening- and pondering.

Whatever may be the-'faulis of the Amhrican people generally. they just don't relish harassment of the underdog by those who happen to be on top. This con- cern is not confined to any partic-
