The President calls upon South East Asia nations for a co-operative economic drive, and asks the United Nations and nations like the Soviet Union to join in. “For our part I will ask the Congress to join in a billion-dollar American investment in this effort as soon as it is underway.

In so doing we will prevail over the enemies within man, and over the natural enemies of all mankind.” President Johnson concludes his speech.
