I am glad to see you here.

Among the most dangerous threats to a sound and healthy economy in America are spiraling interest rates.

I thank the membership for the cooperation they have extended the executive branch.

I think you can be reasonably sure if no action is concluded between now and the State of the Union Message that I will have recommendations in that field.

I have urged labor in this country--and will do so again and again in the days to come--and management to exercise prudence and restraint in their wage and price decisions.

The executive branch of the Government is going to take whatever action it can in an attempt to drive down interest rates, in an attempt to keep our dollar sound, and in an attempt to match our expenditures with revenues.

I think that we will have to see what the Congress appropriates, what our review indicates.

They place an unnecessary burden on our citizens.

No, I haven't read Senator Dirksen's statement.

No, I haven't indicated that.

I think that when the heads of the nations come together it is always necessary to have an agenda and to have the matter pretty well planned out in advance.

No, I have made a comment on that report, and others like it, at one of my recent press conferences.

I am rather pleased at the success that we have achieved so far.

We are very anxious to pursue any proposal that would interest the North Vietnamese.

I think that the Congress, through the Appropriations Committee and Authorizations Committee, have had very full details on our expenditures, in men, money, and materiel in Vietnam.

I don't think that I would get into that.

I don't have any such fear.

I don't think that I can add much to what you already know.
