hot Wash Again

Announcer: Mr.. President, there
is another thing about the East
Room that I've heard and think
that you're the source of the story
is that Abigail Adams hung her
wash in here before it was finished
Mr.. Truman: That's correct. II
you read the life Of Mrs. John
Adams-Abigail Adams-it states
there that the floor was not in the
East Room when the Adamses
moved in. They moved in in 1898.
The house was started in 1892 and
it wasn't finished by 1893. It was
almost as slow a job as the one
we've Just finished.

An Imitation Stuart?

I'm the East Room, before q
portrait of George Washington
Mr.. Truman: It's an imitation
Stuart. I understand that it's not
a real Stuart but I'm not sure
about that. Some people say that
Stuart painted the face and one
tof his hired-help painted the rest
Of the figure. At any rate, Dolly
Madison Is credited with having
saved it when the British burned
the House.
Announcer: Was that the one
she cut down and tucked under
her arm and ran out the door
with, Mr.. President?
Mr.. Truman: Well, that the
story but the story isn't true. She
took the frame, picture and all
and took it away in a big wagon
But the story has always gone
around that she cut the picture
out of the frame and rolled it ur
and put it under her dress and
took it with her. And one of the
Quiz Kids one time asked Presi-
dent Roosevelt what sort of a
knife she used to cut the picture
out Of the frame and Mrs. Roose-
velt told me he didn't hesitate a
moment. He said, why a kitchen
knife, of course"
