And as I leave, let me say, that is an example I think all of us should remember.

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.

This country needs good farmers, good businessmen, good plumbers, good carpenters.

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