TRUMAN'S NEPHEW
OFF TO P0TSDAM

POTsDAM, July 18-U.D-sgt.
Harry A. Truman, 21-year-old
nephew of the President, was tax
en- off a homeward bound transport
at the last minute yesterday and
flown to Potsdam to spend the next
week or 10 days in the Big Three
compound as his uncle's guest.
The sergeant, who arrived in
Europe in September, 1914, almost
missed his chance to attend the
historic meeting.
When MIR. Truman docked at Ant
werp Sunday he told 1t. Gen. John
|C. H. Lee, commander of Service
Forces in the communications
zone, that he had nephew some
where in Europe and he would
like to see him.
Lee found Sergeant Harry aboard
f, the liner Queen Elizabeth at an
unnamed port, ready to sail for
home. On Lees orders, the youth
left the ship and was flown lmme'
diately to Potsdam.
The sergeant is the son of the
Presidents brother, j. Vivian Tru-
man, of Grandview, Mo-, and he
has earned battle stars for the
campaigns of northern France, the
Rhineland and central Germany.
His outfit is the 18th Field Ar
tillery, Battery c, of the 44th dlvl'
sion.
Before entering the Army, the
sergeant was a student at the Uni
versity of Missouri, and ne last
saw his famous uncle in their home
state last August, during the 1914
presidential campaign.
Despite the loss of his trip home,
the sergeant said he was mot I'M
happy" at the chance to attend the
Big Three conference.
