Richard Nixon: “We have a special relationship with the Philippines which will always be in our hearts.”

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.
