Richard Nixon: “In keeping with tradition, I am proclaiming the week of May 14 as Small Business Week.”

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.

Always remember, others may hate you, but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself.

As a result of these efforts, I am confident that the world is a safer place today, not only for the people of America but for the people of all nations, and that all of our children have a better chance than before of living in peace…

Two weeks ago, I vowed to the American people that any appropriations bill substantially above my budget for fiscal year 1975 would be vetoed.
