Lyndon Johnson: “The Executive Branch must fulfill its responsibility with common sense and imagination.”

Any reservations or withdrawals heretofore made which affect the lands described above are hereby revoked.

Your reward--and it is coming--will be seen in the faces of children who will come down the road that you have helped to open.

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.
