Airports

Secretary of State Dean Acheson bids farewell to President Harry S. Truman, Mrs. Bess Truman, and Margaret Truman as the first family left Washington this morning for a vacation in Florida. Margaret, who completed her tour with a concert at Constitution Hall last night, carries a new camera for the vacation. They are at an airport.
