Richard Nixon: “Just 6 months ago, I signed legislation which would have increased social security benefits almost 6 percent by next…”

I take this occasion once again to urge prompt and final action on the Trade Reform Act.

A strong America is essential to maintaining world peace.

This legislation exceeds my budgetary recommendations by such a large amount--some $540 million--that it presents a clear and distinct threat to our fight against inflation and cannot be accepted.

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.
