Richard Nixon: “I WANT to express my deepest sympathy and concern over the tragic accident in Chicago this morning which has cost so…”

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

As far as what the President personally knew and did with regard to Watergate and the coverup is concerned, these materials--together with those already made available--will tell it all.

Mistakes, yes. But for personal gain, never.

I have done my very best in all the days since to be true to that pledge.
