Richard Nixon: “I believe that a meeting with Soviet leaders should take place at a future time.”

I do hereby proclaim October 29, 1974, as National Student Government Day.

It is regrettable that the Congress has seen fit to add to a bill of such importance to our national security a rider adversely affecting the constitutional separation of powers.

Therefore, I shall resign the Presidency effective at noon tomorrow.

May God's grace be with you in all the days ahead.
