The second is the Fish Protein Concentrate Act, which will mean so much to your people.

I AM TODAY signing a bill which marks another advance in this Nation's commitment to eliminate poverty and famine and disease throughout the world.

I think your grandchildren will read in their history books that the 89th Congress passed more legislation for the greatest good for the greatest number than any Congress in the history of this Nation.

I learned just a few days ago while I was already here in Asia that our Congress had acted on this proposal and passed a new law, the first step--the International Education Act.

We have been successful, finally, in obtaining action by the 89th Congress which will permit full U.S. participation in this multinational effort.

One of the first contributions I made in the legislative field when I came to Washington was when we passed the first minimum wage bill through the Congress of the United States.

We have passed 65 good, solid pieces of legislation.

The House is considering that bill.

The landmark legislation that's passed by this Congress will in time, in my judgment, change the face of this entire Nation.

I think that as a result of this meeting and the work that they have already done, the legislation we have already passed, that not only will many thousands of young people be attending college who otherwise would not have been able to attend, but we will further strengthen our free enterprise system.

We are very hopeful that the Congress will agree with us on the wisdom of our proposals and in due time will act upon them.

I urge the Congress to respond to this magnificent offer by adopting the measure I am forwarding today.

I commend to the consideration of the Congress legislation enabling the Smithsonian Institution to accept this gift on behalf of all our people.

This bill that the Congress has sent me gives the Small Business Administration the authority to carry out our program for the coming year.

I therefore renew my recommendation for legislation requiring lenders to state the full cost of credit, simply and clearly, and to state it before any credit contract is signed.

In the forward movement of the communications satellite program, all agencies of the Government and the committees of the Congress have assisted in carrying out the objectives and purposes of the Act.

I am going to sign this measure this morning notwithstanding the fact that it goes further than I was willing to ask for this year.

The bill does not foreclose any specific course of action, but will make it possible to move ahead toward accomplishing our basic objective.
