												  Below Is President Truman's Speech in MARSHFIELD, MISSOURI at ABelow is President Truman’s speech in MARSHFIELD, MISSOURI at a “whistle-stop” from the rear platform of the Ferdinand Magellan at 11:10 PM. The picture above on the right is from a similar stop in Iowa. “Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman, for that wonderful introduction. I think you are a good prophet. You know, it is always a pleasure for me to stop in Missouri and see my old friends. I have been here in this town time and again, when I was running for the Senate, and this town was always good to me in the campaigns that we have had here before, and I am sure that this town is going to be good to me this time. Some of the newspapermen on board say I talk too much about Missouri, in every State where I have been I am always comparing some of the things that they have with how much better Missouri is. They say I talk too much about that, but I can't help it because Missouri is just as good as there is, and they don't make 'era any better. As I came across the Nation--I have been across the Nation and back, starting in Washington and going to San Francisco, and I am this far on the way to Washington again--the country is in a more prosperous condition, so far as the farms are concerned, than ever in the country's history. I stopped in Iowa at Des Moines and attended a plowing contest, where there were a hundred thousand people present, and all those farmers were from all over, from Minnesota, and Wisconsin, and North Dakota, and South Dakota, and Missouri, and Kansas.
