He never saw a top secret message since I have been President.

This order shall become effective as of January 1, 1949.

Prompt action on this bill is of great importance to me in strengthening the management of the Executive Branch to meet those responsibilities.

To do this, we must pay fair salaries.

I hope that this legislation will be enacted into law immediately.

I urge their passage in their present form.

The national interest requires that we get and keep in these positions the most capable men and women that can be found.

Our goals should be abundant farm production and parity income for agriculture.

We must adapt our plans and policies to meet changing circumstances.

We are short of doctors, hospitals, nurses.

In a nation as rich as ours, it is a shocking fact that tens of millions lack adequate medical care.

I stand squarely behind those proposals.

The business cycle is man-made.

These Federal policies have paid for themselves many times over.

They should be enacted in order that the Federal Government may assume the leadership.

The Government must see that every American has a chance to obtain his fair share of our increasing abundance.

These responsibilities go hand in hand.

I am happy to report to this 81st Congress that the state of the Union is good.
