The Mcr.d Today

WASHINGTON LPl-When he
leaves the White House Presider;
Truman will have time to look
back upon his presidency AMI
think of what he might have
done if he had ii to do over
again.
But even if he thinks there
were mistakes, he may never
say so publicly. He was never
a man to give aid and comfort
to his critics, if he could help (
IT was this very resistance to
criticism-sonetines - that came
back to haunt him in the CAM
paign.
When he was first told cracks
were beginning to appear in his
administration, he used the words
asinine and red herring. The Re
publicans reminded him of those

same questions over and over
again: Why are we in Korea
anyway? Why don't we get out
and Why don't we bomb the
Chinese? What's wrong, when
we have to pay such taxes?
It was during Truman's admin
istration that TV came into full
bloom. Here, ready at hand, was
the most direct instrument anv
president ever had for sitting
down with the people in their
own homes and talking to them.
President Roosevelt knew the
value of explaining national prob
lens, and his course of action,
to the people directly although in
his day he was limited to the
radio. Nevertheless, his fireside
chats became welcome and fo
nous.
Truman, with the added advan-
tage of TV, made some nation
wide talks. But those intended
to explain a problem or a deci-
sion or an action that affected
everyone were infrequent.
While he remained absent from
the living rooms of the nation
his opponents and critics moved
in by way of the TV window an6
built up their case against him.
He had plenty of defenders on
TV too.
But Eisenhower will probably
make lot more use of TV than
