John Fitzgerald Kennedy: “The Committee on Government Activities Affecting Prices and Costs is hereby abolished.”

I regard it as serious.

And I think that--the governmental standards, let me say, on the whole I think compare favorably with those in Washington, with those in some other parts of America.

This is the worst attack on foreign aid that we have seen since the beginning of the Marshall plan.

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