LBJ Not Unduly Concerned About Personal Safety
President Johnson says he is not unduly concerned about his safety and will continue to meet and speak with the American people in public. He notes he is taking prudent precautions while asserting the President will engage with citizens. Truman, beside him, says he is very concerned over Johnson's safety. Johnson also outlines an eight point Appalachia program, reports rising corporate profits and lower federal employment, and says the U.S. seeks peace with Russia through talks on aviation consulates and exchanges.
