I want to talk to you tonight about our country, about its future, and about its importance to the hopes and aspirations of all mankind.
I hope and believe final agreement can be reached within the sixty day period.
Our goal is maximum employment and production.
I earnestly request all parties to the dispute to accept this proposal and will appreciate a prompt reply.
