Truman mocks Marine Corps in reply to congressman letter
President Truman drew sharp ire from Marine veteran groups and senators after saying the Marine Corps is the Navy's police force with a propaganda machine almost equal to Stalin's.

The Marine Corps League convenes its annual meeting here as Truman was invited but declined due to military duties.
