Reading from his own hand- written notes in a leather-cuver- ed copy of his speech. Truman said:

"I shall not be e. candidate for re-election.

"I have served my country long -and, I think. efficiently and hon- es

Roosevelt and won the presidency in his own right in 1948, made his announcement after seven years and '19 days in the White House. Presidential secretary Joseph Short later told reporters that Truman decided "about 3. week

ago" to make an announcement to the diners.

Truman's announcement came with dramatic suddenness near

the end of his speech. It climax- qi months of speculation during which newspaper men and polit- ical figures had tried repeatedly and without success to learn his political intentions.

In Portland, Ore.. Margaret Truman. there for a singing con- cert, said Saturday night the an- nouncement was "no surprise" to her.

"I've. known about it. before and I learned this afternoon that he was going to make the announce- ment tonight." she said. Trumanis speech, featuring a slashing attack on the Repub- lican -Party and its candidates ever since the beginning of the New Deal. appeared to be his over-all summary of what he re- gards as the accomplishments oi the new deal and his own "fair deal."

Nonetheless Truman's reception at the s100-a-plate Jefferson- Jackson Day dinner-even before the announcement that took most of the crowd by surprise-was lass enthusiastic than he has re- ceived at. similar dinners in the past.

"The real test of anti-Commun- ism is whether we are willing to devote our resources and our strength to stopping Communist aggression and saving free people from its horrible tyranny. That kind of anti-Communism takes money and courage-not Just talk. .

'"I say to you. in all serious- ness, beware of those who pretend to be so violently anti-Communist. in this country. and at the same time vote to appease Communism abroad. In my book. that is talk- lng out of both sides of the mouth at once; and I don't think the American people are going to be taken in by it." .
