Richard Nixon: “We have got to stop discriminating in this country against older people who want to work.”

This house has a great heart, and that heart comes from those who serve.

I am pleased that in this bill the Congress has expressed support for our objectives by authorizing $22.2 billion for military procurement purposes during fiscal year 1975.

I have done my very best in all the days since to be true to that pledge.

I further urge all students in our country to acquaint themselves fully with their own student government associations and to play a constructive role in contributing to their success.
