Dwight Eisenhower actually said...

"This legislation is a constructive step toward a better distribution of functions between the Federal Government and the States."

"I know that you share with me the hope that more such steps to expand State responsibility will be taken in the future."

"I have often stressed the need to increase the functions and responsibilities of the States as a safeguard against excessive centralization of governmental power in this country."

"The goals of our two peoples - the spiritual and material welfare of the individual, a free society dedicated to peace and justice - are deeply ingrained."
