I believe, first, that Secretary Connally
answered your question, and that is our position, in his
press conference. As far as any further discussion with
regard to the role that labor will play, and the relationship
of the board to the Cost of Living Council, I think it
would be well to wait until their meeting has been concluded.
If they make a statement today, I will issue a
statement from here commenting upon that specific matter,
if it is raised.
QUESTION: Could you tell us what consultations
were had with the NATO allies or Japan on the two visits?
THE PRESIDENT: All were informed.
QUESTION: Mr. President, can you tell us when you
may make a nomination or nominations for the Supreme Court
and is Senator Byrd of West Virginia on the list of those
you are considering?
THE PRESIDENT: He is definitely on the list
and I will make the nominations next week, both.
QUESTION: Both?
THE PRESIDENT: Both.
QUESTION: Sir, you are going to have a woman on
there, aren't you? (Laughter)
THE PRESIDENT: I would simply add that I don't
rule out Senator Byrd and I certainly don't rule out a woman
for consideration.
Incidentally, the speculation with regard to the
court, I know, is naturally a subject of very great interest,
but I can assure you that the dope stories that a man is
certain to get it, and then a dope story this morning, he
is out of the running, both are wrong.
Senator Byrd, as a result of several of his
colleagues recommending him, is one who is being considered.
And I will also say in answer to Miss McClendon's question that
at least two women are under consideration at this time.
