Few Presidents
Address Senate
Truman Only Fourth to Talk
To Senators in Their
Present Chamber.
By WALTER A. SHEAD

WASHINGTON. - When Pres.
Harry S. Truman stepped to the ros-
trum in the senate chamber of
the capitol building to deliver the
United Nations Charter to the
president of the senate, he was only
the fifth president in the 169-year
history of the nation ever to appear
before the senate body, according to
senate historians.
AS a matter of fact, he was only
the fourth president to address the
senate in the present senate cham
ber.
President Washington addressed
the senate of the first congress on
August %, 1889, meeting in New
York. His subject was a discussion
of Indian affairs.
No other president ever addressed
the senate until President Wilson
stood on the same spot 26 years ago,
lacking nine days, to deliver the
Treaty of Versailles and the League
of Nations 6venant. The date was
July 10, 1919.
Then on July IL, 1921, President
Harding addressed the senate of the
United States in his memorable
speech opposing the bonus for vet
Grams of World War 1.
Hoover, Then Truman.
On March 81, 1882, President
Hoover, with the doom of depres-
sion settling upon the nation, dis
cussed the economic situation of the
country from the senate rostrum.
And on July 2, 1945, President Tru-
man made his historic appearance
with the United Nations charter for
keeping the peace of the world.
Only four senators were there who
were in the senate when Wilson
made his unsuccessful plea for rati-
fication 26 years ago. They were:
McKeller of Tennessee, and Gerry
of Rhode Island, both Democrats, |
who voted for unconditional ratifica- |
tion of the League of Nations; Walsh
of Massachusetts, Democrat, who
voted against ratification, and
Hiram Johnson of California and
Arthur Capper of Kansas, both Re-
pubicans, voting against ratifca-
tion.
The wheel of history, however,
has made change in the thinking
OF the nation. Where Wilson was
received, in the words of a contem-
porary historian, in "bleak and chill
austerity," Truman was greeted
with cheers and bursts of applause
and with assurance that the charter
will be ratified.
How Different.
The spirit of friendliness was evi-
dent in the packed galleries where
the applause was in the nature of
an ovation. The President, evidently
also in friendly mood, departed
some from his short script for
asides of good humored comment,
and, on his way out, shook hands
with the senators seated along the
aisles.
These included Senator Wheeler of
Montana, outstanding isolationist,
and Walsh of Massachusetts. He
also grasped the hands of the Re-
pubicans along the aisle, White of
Maine and he went out with
his ready smile and light step.
In contrast, Wilson, seeking the
same goal, peace among nations,
went back to the White House
broken-hearted, a sick and disap-
pointed man . but his ideal has
become reality d. quarter of a
century later.
