Jimmy Carter

We have successfully concluded talks with...the leaders of Israel, Egypt and Jordan and Syria.

I think it's unlikely that we would mount a new effort for manned space flight to the moon or to the planets.

I think it's something that our country ought to assume as a permanent clear-cut commitment of our people.

It is most fitting for all of us to join in a solemn commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Charles Lindbergh's flight and in grateful celebration of the enduring accomplishments it inspired and made possible.

We have made a lot of progress in the last 2 weeks.

I would not ever desist on my policy on human rights.

He feels very strongly that it is a tragic mistake to follow that philosophy.

President Carter does not feel that any President has the right to break the law.

I will nominate John Ferren to fill the vacancy on the District of Columbia Court of Appeals caused by the death of Judge Austin Fickling.

The formulae for allotting funds for employment opportunities have been changed drastically this last 3 months.

Nordhaus is counsel of the House Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce.

I feel it is binding on me to carry those commitments out.

I will nominate Robert L. Nelson, of Washington, D.C., to be Assistant Secretary of the Army.

But in the future the burden of persuasion will be on those who favor a particular arms sale, rather than those who oppose it.

I believe that the United States must take steps to restrain its arms transfers.

The United States, as a condition of sale for certain weapons, may stipulate that we will not entertain any requests for retransfers.

An orderly marketing agreement with Japan will considerably moderate the significantly increased exports from Japan which occurred in 1976.

The virtually unrestrained spread of conventional weaponry threatens stability in every region of the world.

I believe that the United States can and should take the first step.

Expected higher sales and profits should encourage American companies to expand production here and to invest in the latest available machinery.

We will not be the first supplier to introduce into a region newly developed, advanced weapons systems.

I have concluded that an orderly marketing agreement is the most effective remedy for the injury caused by increased imports to the color television receiver industry and its employees.

The United States will henceforth view arms transfers as an exceptional foreign policy implement.

It is important that the remedy achieve the maximum benefit for domestic producers or workers while having the minimum impact on consumers.

I think it's a tribute to Mr. Guzick, but also in some ways, this is a tribute to all the superlative civil servants that work for our Government.
