I hope that all the people in this country will realize that we are in it together.

I would like very much for private industrial leaders to consider the shifting to a 4-day workweek.

We waste more energy in this country that doesn't have to be wasted than the total amount that we import.

It is a very serious handicap to me and to other leaders now in dealing with this first indication of a permanent energy shortage.

I think the reason for my being here is exactly your reason for being here--to keep this Westinghouse Plant open, productive, with an assurance of future capacity to meet our Nation's needs in a very crucial industry.

We will investigate the accuracy of reports on the reserve supplies of oil, coal, uranium, natural gas.

This is the first strong indication of a permanent, very serious energy shortage.

What every person in this country does--to wear warm clothes indoors, warm underwear, a sweater; to cut down the thermostats very low...is a very strong contributing factor to the resolution of this problem.

We are all in it together.

I intend to sign the emergency request for Florida Monday, and signed one for Colorado yesterday.

U.S. Ambassador-designate to the United Nations Andrew Young will represent the United States at celebrations in Tanzania and Nigeria.

I am deeply concerned about the human suffering and economic problems being caused by the energy shortages.

I'd like for all the Cabinet members to be quite innovative in assessing what your own Departments can do to help with these problems, even before you are asked.

We have 11 States that I believe are in some degree of crisis.

I want them to know--and all the people in these States to know--that we are available to help them.

We could save a great deal of fuel both in Government buildings and also in commercial buildings if we could just heat the buildings 4 days a week instead of 5 days a week.
