MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
The Prime Minister, Mr. John Gorton, has received
the following message from President Nixon:-
" Dear John, I very much appreciated your message
welcoming the safe return of our astronauts. It
symbolises perfectly the special bonds of friendship,
co-operation and understanding which exists between
the Australian and American people. I will most
certainly look into the possibility of Astronauts
Armstrong, Aldrmn and Collins visiting Australia.
With all best wishes. Sincerely, Richard Nixon.
