Harry S. Truman was the 33rd President of the United States. He assumed the presidency during the last months of WWII and at the beginning of the Cold War. He was a moderate Democrat and for the most part, he tried to continue the policies of the New Deal that Roosevelt had implemented.
However, Truman generally had an antagonistic approach to labor, particularly during the wave of labor strikes from 1945-46.
