DRAFT OF SPEECH BY SENATOR HARRY S. TRUMAN This is one of the most crucial elections in our history. We are in the midst of the most terrible war of all time. Although we are moving swiftly and inexorably toward victory, we must not forget that the final and decisive blows are still to be struck and that a great price in blood and tears is still to be paid. This war must be won and won quickly, so that our fighting men can come home. This requires vigorous and effective leadership. Equal in importance to the task of winning the war is the task of seeing to it that our children will not have to fight again twenty-five years from now. We dare not, we must not fail in this task. We must plan and build an international organization that will make wars impossible.
