We are grateful for the impressive gesture of good will and partnership that you have extended to us.
I call upon them to cooperate fully with the Secretaries of Commerce and State in this important work.
On several occasions I have pledged the full participation of the United States in the development of a World Weather Watch in cooperation with other nations of the world.
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.
