hoover died. it's a combination of army photos and photos, black and white and color photos from press, local residents, all kinds of media donations have come in over the years. the silent film, color film of the army, because hoover's funeral was an army, military production, as a former president, and also, worked in a couple pieces of artwork. so, it's kind of a full thing. the recording, you'll hear about a third of the way in, is the radio broadcast of wmt radio out of cedar rapids, iowa. it features grant price, a well-known radio man that eventually went into television andt some of the other wmt that followed the cortege from cedar rapids airport, along i-82 to west branch. there is a full recording of the funeral service that's an edited, the assorted clips that you hear the radio people are just that, a longer segment of a two and a half recording but no one has two enough hours to do this. so we can crunch it. but i did not cut any part of the funeral, even silences of things are as is

he and herbert hoover lived long lives! they were happy to sign everything that was put before them so these books in a rare to find inscribed people, he was happy to do it. same with hoover, as i mentioned. how was his riding in this? is it all his writing? did he, what was he saying about those who were enemies or friends before? did he make any new enemies writing this diary? i think he reawakened some old enemies. the writing is not very good, and he had a lot of help. the parts where i think the real truman comes through was whenever he would let loose on henry wallace or james byrd. he would never -- and then eisenhower, he would let eisenhower have it. from the 52 campaign when eisenhower ran against stevenson, and truman and he had always had a very respectful relationship. then it all changed. i think truman was personally deeply offended when eisenhower didn't come to the defense of general marshall, when mccarthy attacked. he would call martial -- the essence was, morally bankrupt. so there was no forgiveness pos

hoover of course had a vendetta against champlin who had never liked. and went to various friendly media outlets to try to encourage them to write a great deal about the controversial at least lifestyle of chaplain as well as these issues of his potentially problematic messaging. a mississippi congressman speaking from the floor of the house of representatives described chaplain in 1945 at the end of the war as a perverted subject of great britain who became famous for his forcible seduction of white girls. the american legion boycotted his film miss universe do for its anti-capitalist message. this was in 1947 and then they also boycotted his film limelight which had very little in the way of political messaging content. it was perhaps other than the message that the world belongs to the young and one's own youth fades very quickly, which of course had an autobiographical dimension for chaplain at this point who himself was over 60 at the time. this film was made. but apart from the conservative activists who were never going to see his good side. the
