[0:00] Yeah.
[0:01] Mayor Daly for you, Mr. President.
[0:03] Yeah.
[0:03] There you are.
[0:04] Hello?
[0:04] Mr. President?
[0:06] Mr. Mayor, I didn't want to bother you, but to tell you that I did appreciate, again, the fine in both Ms. Nixon and I, courtesies that were extended.
[0:13] We knew this was a political trip, and we didn't expect that nice sign out there saying, welcome, President and Ms. Nixon.
[0:19] I said, well, you don't know the mayor.
[0:21] He treats us real nice.
[0:23] We need to have you come to Chicago.
[0:25] Right.
[0:25] We're happy to...
[0:26] Have it come last night?
[0:27] Incidentally, let me ask you, as you noticed, I was very nonpartisan.
[0:31] You could have agreed with everything I said about, you know, strong national defense and that sort of thing.
[0:36] Let me ask you, is your son getting married, one of them?
[0:38] Oh, yes.
[0:39] When is that?
[0:40] Do that very soon.
[0:41] In the spring.
[0:42] In the spring.
[0:43] Oh, I see.
[0:44] I see.
[0:45] Well, I wish him well.
[0:46] Well, thank you very much.
[0:47] And when we get the date, we'll send him a little...
[0:48] Very thoughtful and kind of you to call us.
[0:50] Well, Mr. Riley's awful good, and that big chief, that big tall fellow, he was great.
[0:55] All right.
[0:56] Thank you.
[0:57] Thank you.
