We have a record, and it is a good record.

I do hereby proclaim Wednesday, April 14, 1976, as Pan American Day.

Under the Peaceful Nuclear Prospective Treaty, there are some very far-reaching new steps that will be taken to insure that there are no violations.

That is an all-time record for a President.

I can tell you without any hesitation or qualification that the military capability of the United States today is unsurpassed, period.

I call upon the Governors of the fifty States to issue similar proclamations.

The Alamo is a monument to human freedom.

I would never promise more than I could produce.

I am formally transmitting to the Congress a request for a supplemental appropriation of $528 million which will support 888,100 jobs for disadvantaged youth this summer.

I urge your continued personal involvement.

I also remind the Congress that the $1.7 billion I requested in 1976 supplemental appropriations for temporary employment assistance is urgently needed.

Summer employment gives us a chance to expand relationships with educational institutions and, at the same time, assist students who need the income to help out with school expenses.

The ultimate result of this project should be significant budgetary savings, a better recognition of the Commission's regulatory mission, and a greater understanding of the specific economic implications of our regulations.

We have to keep pressure on in order to further, at this time, the progress.

I expect everybody--and we will include the White House in that--to get that 10 percent figure down.

Whatever differences I may have with the Congress over other aspects of the job creation issue, there is no reason why local officials and individual job holders should be held in suspense or in fear of being laid off.

I urge all agencies to conduct balanced programs through the selection of young people who have successfully competed in the summer employment examination.

The reduction of agency backlogs and delays seems to be the highest priority for everyone here.

This public service employment program is already employing people.

Next year America will be even stronger because of your determination.

It is entirely fitting that in this city of bronze and marble monuments, we choose to remember Lyndon Johnson with a living memorial of pines here along the banks of the Potomac.

Again, thank you all.

I would especially urge young people to come to this spot to ponder the site that has quickened the pulse of many young Americans starting out on their careers in government.

People will always be America's greatest, single resource.

The States should have the responsibility--and the right--to establish and enforce their own quality day care standards.
