It's taken us 2 years to reverse that damage, get productivity growing again, and foster a recovery that's starting to bring people back to work.

This will be a protection we never had before.

We're confident that the economic measures President Hurtado is taking in Ecuador will succeed.

As two countries strongly committed to democratic government, we are heartened by the obviously favorable trend toward democracy in Latin America.

I have very much appreciated the opportunity to have President Hurtado as my guest.

Our transportation systems—land, water, and air-enable us to work where we choose, travel where we please, and ship the products of our farms and factories across the country and around the world.

I do hereby proclaim the week beginning May 22, 1983, as World Trade Week.

I do hereby proclaim the month of April, 1983, as Cancer Control Month.

I think they're entitled to some relief, since they're supporting two school systems and only using one.

America must not be tempted to turn to protectionism, but lead the way toward freer trade and more open markets.

Like Teddy Roosevelt at San Juan, I'm going to charge up that Hill until we get a victory.

If our system is to survive, it must truly bring justice to all who seek it.

As the world's largest trading Nation, the United States has much to gain from the continued expansion of world trade and much to lose if it is diminished.

America must be an unrelenting advocate of free trade.

It is unjust and inexcusable when they are ignored or mistreated by this system.

I urge every American to take action to ease the burdens faced by innocent victims.

We want real work for our citizens, not make-work.

We've fought hard for this recovery, and we're not going to see it shattered.

An improving economy is the quickest, best, and most potent antidote for those citizens who were laid off because of the recession.

I'm confident there will be.

We're not going to let it happen.

I do hereby request that Sunday, May 8, 1983, be observed as Mother's Day.

To our mothers we owe our highest esteem, for it is from their gift of life that the flow of events begins that shapes our destiny.

Together, we have developed and prescribed effective legislative medicine.

I consider enactment of this legislation of great importance to the legislative and budgetary program of this Administration.
