Harry Truman

I

I think one man is just as good as another so long as he's not a nigger or a Chinaman. Uncle Will says that the Lord made a White man from dust, a nigger from mud, then He threw up what was left and it came down a Chinaman. He does hate Chinese and Japs. So do I. It is race prejudice, I guess. But I am strongly of the opinion Negroes ought to be in Africa, Yellow men in Asia and White men in Europe and America.

From a letter to his future wife, Elizabeth (Bess) Virginia Wallace, in 1911.

II

I bet there'll be more bohunks and ``Rooshans'' up there (in South Dakota) than white men. I think it is a disgrace to the country for those fellows to be in it. If they had only stopped immigration about twenty or thirty years ago, the good Americans could all have had plenty of land and we'd have been an agricultural country forever.

From a letter to Elizabeth (Bess) Virginia Wallace, October 16, 1911.

III

I have been to see the Chinaman (physician) and am now on my way to be road overseer awhile....While papa is sick I have to do a good many extra jobs....It is necessary to see the Chink Doctor every day this week.

From a letter to Elizabeth (Bess) Virginia Wallace, September 8, 1914.

IV

Really I'm almost homesick for you and Mamma and Mary. If I could only have stayed these two days in Kansas City instead of this---Kike town, I'd have felt much better.

His reference to New York City in a letter to Elizabeth (Bess) Virginia Wallace on March 27, 1918.

V

Just think what he'd do to our great country and our beautiful women if he only could. That is the reason we must go and must get shot if necessary to keep the Huns from our fair land. I am getting to hate the sight of a German and I think most of us are the same way. They have no hearts or no souls. They are just machines to do the bidding of the wolf they call Kaiser.

From a letter to Elizabeth (Bess) Virginia Wallace, March 27, 1918.

VI

We played five-cent poker and I won five dollars, the Costa Rican Minister lost and he screamed like a Jewish merchant. He is a Jew I think. At least he looks and talks like one. 

From a letter to Elizabeth Truman, June 30, 1935.

This town has 8,000,000 people, 7,500,000 of'em are of Israelitish extraction. (400,000 wops and the rest are white people).

His reference to New York City in a letter to his cousin, Mary Noland, March 26, 1918.

VIII

Army of coons.

His reference to Black waiters in the White House in a letter to his daughter in 1936.

IX

I went nigger chasing on Monday. Right through Central Africa: Vine St. There was no trace of that Nelson nigger.

From a letter to his wife dated February 3, 1914.
