[0:02] Yeah.
[0:02] Mr. Sapphire, Mr. President.
[0:04] Yeah.
[0:05] One missing item right at the first, which will take a couple lines.
[0:10] You see, we discussed at the beginning the three-front program, you know, to restrain prices, create jobs, and the dollar, et cetera.
[0:19] I think we should say on the job front, of course, while an international thing deals with it on the job front, and I think by tomorrow you probably can say it, I think that the House...
[0:30] I don't know what day it's going to pass, but it may have passed the tax program.
[0:36] The House of Representatives today has passed the program that will create so many thousand jobs.
[0:43] Remember, we've used a number on that, haven't we?
[0:44] Right.
[0:45] And we...
[0:50] I... Urge the Senate to...
[0:55] I call upon the Senate...
[0:59] I know that all Americans join me in calling upon the Senate to act as promptly as the House so that this program can go into effect that will create so many jobs and so forth.
[1:14] You can check to see on the legislative thing whether that's the case, but if it doesn't, just leave it all out.
[1:18] But it's a nice thing to throw in to sort of remind everybody that
[1:24] We're moving on that front, too.
[1:26] Got it.
[1:26] Okay, very good.
[1:27] All right, fine.
[1:28] How's everything coming?
[1:28] Oh, cooking right along.
[1:30] Good.
[1:30] All right, fine.
[1:31] Right there.
[1:32] All right.
