Lyndon Johnson: “The true measure of our work is in its impact upon our peoples.”

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.

Thank you all for your welcome and for the wonderful work that you carry on.

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

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.
