I've been very pleased.

Only your voice can make that possible.

I am writing to pledge the full assistance of the Federal Government in your efforts.

On the eleventh day of October, the people of the United States will honor the 200th anniversary of the death of the Polish patriot, Casimir Pulaski.

I want to express my gratitude to Attorney General Griffin Bell, my regrets that he has decided to leave this post.

I have asked Congress to lift the spending cap for future fiscal years, and to provide the funding that will be needed to avoid cutting benefits in fiscal years 1980 and 1981.

The need for additional funding for the food stamp program is yet another signal that inflation of the price of food is increasing at an unacceptably high rate.

I am pleased that the U.S. Government can again resume a traditional leadership role in these international institutions.

You have proven that we are sensitive to the demands for world peace and racial justice.

This inability to pay threatened the existence of programs vital to the United States in such fields as nuclear safeguards, air safety, and international health.

You have earned the gratitude of all Americans with your superb performance in a most difficult assignment.

The law that I am signing today demonstrates to the world America's determination to save the great whales.
