REMARKS OF THE PRESIDENT
TO THE BUSINEST PAPER EDITORS
EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
NOVEMBER 25, 1952
11.40 a.m., e.s.t.
I do appreciate your coming up to see the President.
I guess this is seven or eight times you have been here -- I
don't know the exact count, but rather often I know that, and
it has always been a pleasure.
I tried the last time you were here to explain to
you on that globe some of the things that the country and
TRUMARD
the world is faced with. We are still faced with the same
problems, and probably will be faced with them for quite
E
NARA
some time.
Our entire effort is of course to win the cold war
and get peace in the world, and that will mean, naturally,
an industrial expansion for this country and the other
countries of the world. It will also mean, probably,
expansion in business for you. Because I think that if
things do settle down in the world -- as I have always hmped
that they would -- the demand for American knowhow, and
American machinery and American gadgets of all sorts, will
be unlimited in the countries that are slowly and gradually
moving forward and improving their standard of living.
They will want all these things which we know how to make,
and they wi 11 want some of our knowhow as well, so they
can make some of them themselves.
And that is where you come in. Your papers and
your organizations tell them how to do it, and I hope you
will keep up that program as you always have.
And as Paul here said, I hope that there won't be
an entire severance of our acquaintanceship, because I am
going back to the farm. I may be. able to give you some
yellow-legged chickens, sometimes, from that part of the
world.
Thank you very much.
