The largest crowd of the political campaign was held in Chaffee
Tuesday night at the Horstman Theatre. Mr. Truman was met
by a special delegation at Cape Girardeau and escorted to Oran, where
he talked briefly on the special topics of interest to the
Democrats. From Oran to Chaffee, he was escorted by the
National Guard Band.
The talk was enjoyed by everyone and a picture show afterwards was
the windup of the program. Dr. W.O. Finney, Chairman of the
Scott County Executive Committee, presided over the meeting.
Hon. Eugene Munger of Chaffee, introduced the speaker.
The Veterans were given a place on the platform, also the Railway
Brotherhoods for whom Senator Truman spoke recently in Washington.
Senator Truman's speech was one of the finest campaign speeches
that has ever been given in Chaffee. Mr. Truman went to
Cape Girardeau after the speaking where he spent the night.
