Churchill In U.S.: Confers with Truman and Defense Chiefs "Britain's dynamic Prime Minister arrives on the 'Queen Mary' for a brief New York welcome, then flies to Washington for top-level discussions on vital subjects affecting Britain and this country. At the airport, where President Truman greets him, Mr. Churchill speaks eloquently for harmony and close bonds between his country and ours." Liner Queen Mary sailing. Tugboat pushing Queen Mary.

Churchill deplanes, greets President Harry Truman (there seems to be a sincere mutual respect) and others. Churchill, standing at press microphones (press conference) with Truman at his side, says he hopes together (and, in his words, "through your vast strength"), the two nations may bring "peace and hope and salvation on earth to struggling mankind." Truman agrees: "Peace on earth is what we're both striving for; thank you, sir." VS Truman and Churchill on ship.
