A reporter asked whether he had seen any evidence that some Southern states are coming back to Truman. The President replied that a great many never left Truman.

Truman's now-ramous White House balcony was the topic that led up to the political discussion. He Doesn't Scare Easily. The Washington Fine Arts Commission criticized Truman's project. The President laughed that away today by saying the commission members got scared of some brickbats. I don't scare easily, he said.

Asked if that reply had political meaning, he' said it did if you want to give it that. Truman was told that Life magazine had said he would nominate General Dwight D. Eisenhower for President. Life knows a lot of things he doesn't and most of them aren't facts, Truman said. as President this week.

The question whether he will be renominated is one of bitter controversy within the Democratic Party. One spot where some Democrats are bucking his nomination is New York City. A Henry A. Wallace man won in a normally strong Democratic Congressional district there. Too, there has been sharp opposition from some New York Jewish groups to the Administration's Palestine policy.

Meets With Ed Flynn. But Truman related that he'd had a secret meeting this week with Edward J. Flynn, Demo-c a i national committeeman from New York, and Paul Fitz-patrick, the party's state chairman. He talked politics with them, he said, and they went away happy.

American authorities ignored the ultimatum on the ground that it came from the Northern Korean Government, which the United States does not recognize.
