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.
In that pursuit, Mr. President, United States support will be gladly given.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twentieth day of January in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-nine and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.
Any reservations or withdrawals heretofore made which affect the lands described above are hereby revoked.
