002 -2- There will be a great many questions, of course, that I won't answer, either because they are "if" questions -- and I never answer them -- and Brother Stephenson will tell you what an "if" question is -- MR. STEPHENSON: I ask forty of them a day. THE PRESIDENT: And the others of course are the questions which for various reasons I don't want to discuss or I am not ready to discuss or I don't know anything about. There will be a great many questions you will ask about that I don't know enough about to answer. Then, in regard to news announcements, Steve and I thought that it was best that straight news for use out of here should be always without direct quo- tations. In other words, I don't want to be directly quoted, with the exception that direct quotations will be given out by Steve in writing. Of course that makes that perfectly clear. Then there are two other matters we will talk about: The first is "background information", which means material which can be used by all of you on your own authority and responsibility and must not be attributed to the White House, because I don't want to have to revive the Annanias Club. (Laughter) Then the second thing is the "off the record" information which means, of course, confidential
