John Fitzgerald Kennedy: “Long life and prosperity on this 49th anniversary of the independence day of the Chinese Republic!”

I congratulate you, the people of Delaware, the people of Maryland, and the people of the United States.

I know who they are going to blame.

I think it would be unwise to attempt to negotiate it out here.

It symbolizes, I believe, this highway, first of all, the partnership between the Federal Government and the States, which is essential to the progress of all of our people.
