THE PRESIDENT: Well, as you know, I have been having
a number of meetings on this matter over the past week and I
will expect to have more during the next week and after the
Congress returns from its vacation in Miami.
But, whatever the case may be, looking at the welfare
program, I believe that the position that we havet taken , ca
position that has been overwhelmingly approved by the House, is
the right position.
It provides for welfare for those who need it. It
provides also for those incentives that will move people from
welfare rolls to jobs, and it does so at a cost we can afford.
And all of those matters, I think, have to be taken into
consideration in any program that we recommend.
Now, the tactical situation is that Mr. Ribicoff and
several Republicans have indicated that unless the Administration
moves toward their position, that we have no chance to get a
bill.
First, I question their analysis on that point.
