Lyndon Johnson: “We will harness science and technology for the service of our peoples.”

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

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

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.
