...Harry S. Truman turns the alternatives over in his mind, election consideration without doubt will play an abnormally large part in the decision. Labor, in danger of losing the legal rights accumulated in the last fourteen years, has played this argument for all it is worth. Though Truman may not get a second term, even with labor's support, his party will have little chance murmuring a faint echo of the Republican song.

...villainous psychiatrist maneuvers Kris into a sanity trial, during which Attorney John Payne, a glad eye on Miss O'Hara, manages by elaborate legal flummery to have him declared competent. By the fadeout, not only the courts of New York State but 20th Century-Fox itself are ready to insist that there really is a Santa Claus, and that Mr. Gwenn...
