John Fitzgerald Kennedy: “I promised if elected to give the farm problem top priority in the opening weeks of my administration.”

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

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.

I just say that there's no sense having a program if a man who is innocent of any intelligence mission, which is true in this case, is subjected to arrest without means of defense.
