The Portal-to-Portal Act should end this uncertainty with respect to claims of still undetermined magnitude.

I believe that, in the interest of the economic stability of our Nation, it is essential to clarify this matter by statute.

I trust that with the passage of the Portal-to-Portal Act, relieving the business community of a heavy burden of doubt, the Congress will now turn to a re-examination of minimum wage standards.

It is not the purpose of the Act to permit violation of our fundamental wage and hour standards, or to allow a lowering of these standards.

I am convinced that immediate amendment of the Act to provide a minimum of at least 65 cents an hour is necessary.

I want peace in the world worse than any one thing on earth.

I share your confidence that our relations will grow ever stronger in the same cordial spirit that governed my recent visit to your great country and your visit to the United States.

May I express to you, Mr. President, my best wishes for your personal well-being and happiness.

General Marshall knows how to handle it.

The visit which you and your distinguished companions have graciously paid to me and to the people of the United States has strengthened the already firm ties of friendship and understanding between our two countries.

Well, it's good to have you here.

I hope it will be done inside 2 or 3 years.

Our Government is not a democracy, thank God.

Yes, I have seen some definite results from it.

Palestine--everything that has been said about Palestine is still on the record, and still stands.

I have a right to decide on what to sign or what not to sign.

The Korean situation has all been published.

Well, Carl Hatch is my friend, and I think very highly of him.
