Richard Nixon: “Harmony, liberal intercourse with all Nations, are recommended by policy, humanity and interest.”

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

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.

I invite the Governors of the States and of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and other officials at the local level to issue similar proclamations.
