will be to increase each new generation's
grasp of its new duties,
There are three great areas of our
domestic affairs in which, today, there
is a danger that illusion may prevent
effective action. They are: first:
the question of the size and shape of
government's responsibilities second:
the question of public fiscal policy;
and third: the matter of confidence
business confidence, or public
confidence or simply confidence in
America. I want to talk about all three.
I want to talk about them carefully and
dispassionately
Document source description
This file contains materials collected by the office of President John F. Kennedy's secretary, Evelyn Lincoln, concerning President Kennedy's remarks at the 1962 Yale University graduation ceremony. In his speech the President thanks the University for the honorary degree bestowed upon him, and discusses three areas of domestic concern where the prevalence of myth dangerously impedes progress: fiscal policy, confidence in an administration, and the concept of "big government." Materials in this folder include various memoranda of suggested talking points, a draft by Special Assistant to the President and speechwriter Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., a press copy, and a reading copy of the speech with handwritten notations by the President, as well as a luncheon menu, program for the commencement exercises, and an additional transcript of the speech published by Yale University.
