Lyndon Johnson: “During those 2 months we spent $676 million less than we spent last July and last August, a year ago”

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

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.

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

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