OCTOBER 30, 1948 -- 8:25 P.M., D.S.T.
GOVERNMENT
Thank you -- thank you very much. I can't tell you how very much I
appreciate this welcome to my home state. It is grand.
I have been from one end of the country to the other -- N orth and
South, East and West -- and none of them has been any better than this. And
that is the way it ought to be in Missouri.
I was born and raised in the "show me" State, and I learned how "show
me" works, and I have been showing them -- the Republicans are on the run.
On Tuesday, there is only one thing I want you to do, and that is to go
out and vote for yourselves. If you will vote for yourselves, you will vote the
straight Democratic ticket, and everything will be safe for the world, and for
Missouri, and for the United States.
Now, don't forget that. Just do a little thinking.
I am going to discuss the whole campaign tonight, and I hope you will
listen to me. Then, if I am convincing just go and vote for your own best
interests.
I can't tell you how very much I appreciate this most cordial welcome
to my own home state.
Thank you.
