    Harry S. Truman discusses the Taft-Hartley Act, which was passed over his veto. This was possible because the country thought labor had gone too far and were against them. (Off camera, a voice asks a question, not intelligible). Mr. Truman replies the law was passed over his veto and he wants to make that perfectly clear.
1:06   Silent footage
    The silent footage reflects that there were two camera shots of Mr. Truman speaking. The lab selected one shot and attached the remaining footage.
