"The good American doesn't ask for favored position or treatment."

"Water uncontrolled, improperly used, can cause us more damage in this country, possibly, than almost any other single element."

"Only at our peril may we pursue a penny wise, pound foolish policy in regard to the Nation's security."

"The loss of revenue involved in this proposal would be a serious blow to your Government."
