Nixon Speech in Kentucky Shows Emotive Public Return
Nixon delivered a 42 minute speech at the Richard M. Nixon Recreation Center dedication in Hyden Kentucky addressing foreign policy with blunt critique of Carter era decisions. He spoke amid cheering locals, repeated applause, and a 21 gun salute, stressing defense and bargaining power while warning against naive arms restraint. The event marked his first major public appearance since resigning in 1974, ending with an emotional near-tearful close and a five minute standing ovation.

Fruit Prices Expected To Remain High In 78
The Agriculture Department predicts 1978 fruit prices will stay high due to sharp declines in both citrus and non citrus crops. Summer deciduous crops will be about 12 percent smaller than 1977 and 1976, while citrus output may drop seven percent from last year. Prices for fresh fruit are expected to stay above last year's levels through the marketing season. Gross and processed fruit prices are also forecast to stay elevated, with canned fruit and frozen citrus juice prices remaining strong, though frozen strawberry prices may ease due to ample supplies.
