The welfare of the country as a whole is in your hands.

You have as your Postmaster General a career man for the first time, mind you, in the history of the country.

It is clear to me that in writing it you have been actuated by motives of the highest patriotism, and I salute you.

Thanks in great part to your efforts, we build our national defense of the future on a solid foundation.

The Secretary of State is authorized to create and appoint such additional committees in special fields of activity as he may find, after consultation with the heads of other appropriate departments and agencies, to be necessary and…

There is established pursuant to section 409 of the act the International Development Advisory Board.

The Secretary of State is authorized and directed (a) to perform the functions and exercise the powers and authority vested in the President by the act.

We are carrying on this action in Korea for a peaceful world, not for conquest.
