September 14, 1948
Truman wrote in his diary about posing for a portrait which, from his remarks, was not a favorite activity!
"Another hell of a day. I'm sitting for an old Polish painter, and I don't like to pose----but it's also a part of the trial of being President. He's painted a nice stuffed shirt picture. This is about No. 7 or No. 8. Hope it's the last."
"Had the gang in at 6:00 P.M. and worked on farm speech for Des Moines. Papers gave science speech good coverages. Hope it does some good."
