 I know we've got a lot of business to get down to, but before we do, this is a very special day. Pete, welcome back. Thank you. You're welcome. We forgive you. Thank you. No more smoking in your house. You've been waiting to get actual. Have you quit? Yes, sir. That's a hard way to quit. This is ready for the last. We don't need this here, if anybody wants me to. And here's the chest or the lads, didn't you in one time? What? Chest or the lads? As a matter of fact, that egg is something that any time you ever see it again, I want you to look carefully at. I never smoked cigarettes. And they didn't even have me smoke one for that. The studio in those days had the control over that. They could have you do endorsements to advertise whatever pictures was coming out. And that was nothing but a plain steal. And that cigarette was done in by Arthur. I never had a cigarette in my mouth when I tried to fix it with bacon. You look at it very carefully and you'll see that. You couldn't do that today, you had to be all cut. So, that's number one now, number two. Dave is telling us that he became a grandfather this morning. That isn't enough to make it a very special day. Here on his natal day, his birthday, is Paul Waxoff. After the traumatic experience last year, going through six over the rest of it, it's a cakewalk. Is this a meeting or a celebration? We're kind of inviting. Well, no, we'll get down to the meeting now. Congratulations everybody. I know everybody's eager to get out of town. The other recess, including me, I thought this was a good opportunity to get together and maybe review the, get your assessment of this way they don't look. Any chance that you'll adjourn about Thanksgiving? But I know that you're probably all there, all the indicators, so I won't go into them. But I think we can all be very upbeat. The economy is doing fine. The inflation rate for 12 months has been a 2.6%. The second quarter grows naturally. The black figure is a quarter of 8.7%, which is beyond anything any of us has ever estimated. But the housing starts, the retail sales, leading indicators rose again in June for the 12th consecutive month. And the unemployment, I don't have any idea what they will be, but I do know them for some time now. We have been continually having a lower initial application for unemployment insurance than we've had in the last two years. On arms control, there is some initial signs of progress in Geneva. And I think the approval of the Mx, SIN is the right signal to serve us. And I think that the chances are improved that we're going to be able to develop a verifiable arms reduction. Central America, I'm going to be asking George to review in the current status, but before I do it, just like to quality your attention, the problem we face in Central America is a series, but we're all going to have to work together to develop solutions. It's an issue that directly impacts on our interests. And we must begin on this. And if not, it's going to take a lot more resources to do so later. I'm sorry that there wasn't sufficient timely consultation on this issue last week. I'm going to take care of that problem, accept that. I'd like to pay your attention that there wasn't anything to announce on anybody's part. Somebody just leaked. And the whole information was out there. Just like a jipper. You remember Bob said, sure do. How you doing? Just fine, just one convert to another. Isn't that wonderfully good news? It sure is. And I know you haven't waited just to change labels. I know what you've done for me going back several years, including all those belt buckles. And as a matter of fact, just to sort of make it even Stephen a little bit, have a belt buckle for me. Thank you very much. He's even. Not really. It's like 2000. It's been working very closely with Bob for a number of years. In fact, worked with him in private business. He's been a political consultant, so I think he's somewhat responsible for what's happening. Have you re-registered yet? No, sure, but I will soon as I get home next week. Oh boy, if I'd only thought to have a registration. I'm going to be speaking to the Republican fundraiser. I'm a Democrat, 1962. And a woman stood right up in the middle of the audience, in the middle of my speech, and she said, have you re-registered? And I said, just what you did. She said, I'm a registrar. Well, I'm down the center off, but you're on the podium. I'm on 4-0. Mr. President, we have one picture with you and the Governor alone. We'll do one with that also. Yeah, let me. Thank you very much. I look forward to helping you. I'm sure he's been a good one so far. Thank you so much. Thank you very much. Let me say, I'm leaving a hand on Thursday. I mean, on Saturday, I was going to my left for a few days. I'm going to be leaving a hand on Tuesday. I was planning my wedding. I'm going to be leaving Wednesday. Thank you very much. We said, oh, are there any resolutions after the recess? Yes. Of course not. They didn't want that being from them. And she announced to them that she had sent the wire to them. That was one they received. And there's a local radio station that's been getting calls from women, mainly. Right to the last minute, she was just fawning all over me. She didn't come over there. And then to come back and find her, just... Hi, how are you, sir? I'm good. How are you, sir? I'm good. Thank you very much. I'm trying to meet you sir. I'm calling our chairman of the national choir. Hello, we call your office. We're in, Mr. President. We're in. How are you? We're in. We are. We're in. We're in. We need an item growing up. You're still in 20,000 books now? It's 13,000. 13,000. See, that's what happens in Washington. One of that people gave me an exaggeration. I went from door to door and asked people for them. Well, in other words, if I've got... If I've got some books and so forth and things that I've been doing, why don't I have them in dress so that if I should... If I sent you some books that would be... You may not get into the library, Mr. President. Those would be private libraries. Well, I'm not several on a shelf. I'm almost going down today. I thought I'd better find out how this works. Well, all you have to do is just... Just write Jason Hartman. Elsewhere you thought you could send him a book. And then we'll get... 475. 475. I shall do that. We'll do that. But I think that... He runs the library. And I'm here today on behalf of the National Commission on Libraries to honor Jason in your presence by presenting him with a certificate of appreciation from the National Commission on Libraries because he has single-handedly started this library in Elsinore, Utah. Congratulations, 680. Turn it that way. Mr. President. Well... And we congratulate you, Jason, for bringing the attention of the country to rural America and to the need for libraries. We appreciate all that you have done, and we felt that we should honor you in this way. We're very happy to do it. We present you with this certificate of appreciation from the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science. Thank you. Mr. President, we have a gift for you too. This is the logo of the National Commission on Libraries, and it signifies equal access of opportunity to information. On behalf of the rural citizens, we have also for you a new National Library logo, which we would like to present to you for the White House Library. Thank you very much. We have one for Senator Patch. Well, thank you so much. You may use it wherever you wish. And we have one for Jason for his library. Well... And now I think Mr. President, I would like to present to you something he would like to present to you. Mr. President, I would like to present to you the first public library card. This is the first card that you issued. The library? Well, thank you very much. I am very proud to have that. I thank you. Mr. President, would it be possible to have this family with their picture taken with you? What? Yes, we could. We could. I wonder if you can get on the other side? We'll work at the library too. Yeah, that's it. Right. I'll just see you on it. There's the library and the bed. Oops! And the jelly beans. I didn't even know what I was saying. Jelly beans? Well, everybody stands out here on the rug. There we go. Thank you. Thank you. That's great. Thank you. You'll send those to me. Okay. Thank you. Thank you so much. Appreciate it very much. He's a good family. We're very proud of him. We're glad to have this honor. I raised my kids telling them that they could never be lonely if they had a book. And I think to this day, my nightmare of what would be one of the worst things would define myself in a hotel room, in some place like that, and nothing to leave. It leaves my mind. Could you have the picture taken with you? And you. One of the family can come over here by me and then we'll leave the present after this one. Thank you. Mr. President, thank you. I sure appreciate it. Thank you very much, Mr. President. Good luck. Yes. Thanks again, Mr. President. Hey, hi. How are you? Good to see you. Good to see you, Mr. President. Good to see you, Ben. I am. That's the highlight of the day. The work out, right? Yeah. Yes. It's gone. I know you smile. Why do I ask? I'm like, why do I ask? I'm going to give you the award. I'm going to tell you how nice you are, or how good you are. I'm going to sit down over there. Good. Father? Father. I'm going to sit down. Very well. Very well. And the teacher. My pleasure. My pleasure. My pleasure. My pleasure. My pleasure. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. And I have the honor of presenting the summer presidential service award. It has been awarded. And it's turned that way. So I'm going to be glad to do it. And I understand that you were a state championship bull wall in some way. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. My position. Tail back. Tail back. Run it back. How fast are you? Fast amount. That's what I'm saying. I'm just a ranked guard. Really? Yeah. I don't agree. I wouldn't want to. Oh, that's a killer. Right. 13th annual celebration. That's different. There used to be a record. Weren't his physical actions your teacher? I'm filming. All of them would have a family picture. Okay.
