With the Canadian falls roaring in the background, Mr. Truman is shown shaking hands with Mayor William L. Houck of Niagara Falls, Ontario. "I'm glad I don't have to go over the falls in a barrel," the President remarked. The presidential special pulled up on the Canadian side to let the President and his family motor around the falls.
