I am confident that the Nation's over-all prosperity will be extended into the months ahead.

I think everybody that went on this trip became convinced of this: in the long run, no laws are going to solve this problem completely.

I have received the assistance and advice of the Council of Economic Advisers.

I do not believe there is any cure you can prescribe in advance for that sort of thing.

I make the decisions, and there is no use trying to put any responsibility on the National Security Council--it's mine.

Well, I will tell you what first convinced me. The first thing we need is a lot of rain for a long time.

Looking back, sir, over what happened in Poland and Hungary, could you tell us whether you subscribe to the belief that is sometimes expressed that the events in Eastern Europe have somewhat altered the military equation or balance between…

By virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and statutes, and as President of the United States, it is hereby ordered as follows:

The Chairman of the Government Patents Board is hereby authorized to transfer to the Department of Commerce any or all of the records heretofore prepared by the Board pursuant to paragraph 2 (b) of Executive Order No. 10096.

Never for a moment has the United States entertained such a thought.

We shall have heartened the patriots who are dedicated to the independence of their nations.

Today we have security treaties with 42 other nations which recognize that our peace and security are intertwined.

Our desire is a world environment of freedom, not servitude.

There is general recognition in the Middle East, as elsewhere, that the United States does not seek either political or economic domination over any other people.

You have made a unique contribution to the labors of this Administration in the area of economic growth and stability where our efforts have been rewarded with gratifying success.

And you have done so in a manner which demonstrates that economics and equity can be allies and not antagonists.

My own personal sense of loss is eased by the knowledge that you will be available to help us from time to time in the days ahead.

If the day ever comes when sound economic policies fail to serve the ends of social justice, our form of society will be in grave jeopardy.

The Declaration of the Soviet Government of October 30, 1956, which restated the policy of non-intervention in internal affairs of other states, was generally understood as promising the early withdrawal of Soviet forces from Hungary.
