Harry Truman.

Born on May 8, 1884 - December 26, 1972. Truman was the 34th president. He became president 12, 1945.

He was FDR's third vice president and he was thee 34th president.

Truman faced many challenges in office. With WWII ending it followed by an uneasy transition from war to a peacetime economy. He also faced with the renewal of labor-management conflicts. Servere shorting of housing. With a widespread dissatisfaction with inflation. In the spring of 1946, a national railway strike happened, it brought virutally all passenger and frieght lines to standstill for over a month. With that he almost threathned the strikening workers into the armed forces.

Personal thoughts: I feel bad for Truman because he became president after WWII and of course many problems had to happened after that. I think he handled them like any person would!
