Lyndon Johnson: “But he never wavered from a conviction that all men deserve to be free and to live together as brothers.”

In that pursuit, Mr. President, United States support will be gladly given.

I believe deeply in your cause and I believe in you.

Sometimes it is your job to go out and scout the road, to encounter and overcome the difficulties that always accompany such a vast new venture as this.

We are grateful for the impressive gesture of good will and partnership that you have extended to us.
