A committee headed by manufacturer A. R. Lambert, invited me to come back for a special day in my honor. L&st night they learned that President Truman on hie campaign special would be passing through Ansonia this m rn1ng. They didn't know whether to ask the President to make Ansonia a special stop or not. When I heard about it I urged them to do it by all means. But by then they•• found it wa1 a little too late. Ae I drove into Ansonia the Pre 1dent's s ecial went streaking through, and Mr. Truman was not on the rear platform. The rest of today has been devoted to tak1n part in a parade, shaking handB with old friends, me tin relatives e all are descendente of e rly pioneers w.o came here 1n the aye of Mad ANSONIA - Anthony Wa y ne and the In d ian w a rs. My father long a go had taught school here a nd my g randfat h er. It's an inspiring ex p r1ence to meet t h e peo le who live where y our own family lived for generati o ns six generati o ns. This, Darke County, by the way used to be known as the richest agricultural county in the entire United States. They tell me it 1s still the second tx richest. First! ell, maybe** that's Tulare County, in California. Of course, with Mr. Truman going through on his private train today,p o litics was the subleot in everyone's mind. I•m broadcasting under a tent, on the edge of the village, in an Ohio corn field. There are some thousands of peo n le sitting and standing around me in this tent. Just for the fun of it, I have asked them how they are going to vote on election day, a few weeks from now. Thie is traditionally a Democratic county, and I thought it would be interesting to t a ke a poll of these farmers and the people of Ansonia an surrounding towns. So I • I -\ .
