[31:00] I have some other random thoughts that might be of use to you on your trip.
[31:03] None of them are particularly important, but they may give you some
[31:39] in the conversation we had with the various leaders.
[31:43] With that in mind, Mayor, we'll clarify the response to the question.
[31:47] I'll let it go forward.
[31:48] In the box.
[32:25] I envisaged all the taxes that you would use on this trip.
[32:30] You probably haven't compiled the record line at the time of the statement that was made by, uh, President, by the head of the government of the state of Manhattan.
[32:43] Go ahead.
[32:44] In any event, sir,
[32:52] Here's a brief rundown for the rundown that you need to mind.
[32:54] I was in Columbia in 1958, and I was Columbia president with the state of the state.
[33:20] And I received it along with the President of the State Department.
[33:22] I was in Brazil twice.
[33:22] As Vice President, again, I received it from the President of the State Department.
[33:25] And the people of the State Department said,
[33:52] Hurry up and share.
[33:53] Hurry up and share.
[33:53] All right, this is Olivia.
[34:53] It's been easy after the earthquake.
[34:54] In fact, my little apartment is already being renovated.
[34:56] And again, it's a private city.
[34:56] It was renovated in 2007.
[34:57] It's a pretty good car.
[34:57] My house is...
[35:24] It was the first foreign country I lived in.
[35:25] I have at least two.
[35:54] I visited Australia and the gas on the private
[36:24] on the White House side of the President's office.
[36:25] Incidentally, while you were in Ontario, the President was scheduled to call on the former Prime Minister, Robert Menzies.
[36:29] He's been quite ill, and maybe he'll be coming to the seat.
[36:30] But he's a great friend of mine.
[36:31] He's a top world leader, and I'm very proud of him.
[37:32] If you are aware of this, a number of us have said that maybe it's not.
[37:34] In 1963, I was both in Saigon and Hanoi.
[37:35] Then before the country was purgated in 1956, I was in Saigon again.
[38:03] I was out of office, and I was there at least six times.
[38:05] And I've been there once.
[38:05] And so, I got pregnant.
[38:06] I was in Malaysia.
[38:06] I was following up for her, and I agreed.
[38:07] And then, again, I tried to say,
[38:35] And, uh,
[39:02] I consider him among the most competent of the world leaders in the international world.
[39:04] He has a profound understanding of international affairs.
[39:42] to attend to the performance at the Kennedy Center for the Royal Concert of the Dancers on May 1st.
[40:26] My head is there, but now my hair is red, and I'm a little bit underwhelmed.
[40:28] You know, it's just pretty...
[40:28] It's hard for me to be very familiar, so...
[40:29] It's tough for us to not be denied the fact that I had a pretty good look on the scene.
[40:31] It's a wonder of the world.
[40:32] It's very, very...
[40:56] I visited Iran in 1963 when I first got the job, and again in 1967.
[40:57] I was here in the state of Hawaii.
[40:58] I was there two or three years ago, and I lost my career.
[41:00] I didn't go after my possible career.
[41:33] again in 1957.
[41:34] And then in 1969, on the Round the World trip, I was in Cambodia, and I was practicing there.
[42:07] I also was attached to my mom's jewelry while I was out of office.
[42:09] Right.
[42:09] And, uh, I was attached to my mom's jewelry while I was out of office.
[42:11] Right.
[42:11] I have seen her.
[42:11] I have, uh,
[42:36] to seek to find the present hope of freedom and peace.
[42:38] In each country that you visit,
[43:04] You will probably be asked for a very personal message from the president if you have a reference that is sacred.
[43:08] You should answer it in the primary in any case.
[43:10] I will never call it a practice, but I have a letter to hand over
[43:34] I had taken up several matters with the U.S. government in the United States, and also agreed on that.
[44:03] to get therapy in general.
[44:04] They did as well all the time besides the last one
[44:35] A general theme for your trip might be along the following lines, period.
[44:40] Of course, if you know, I have made several speeches for the back of it.
[44:45] There are probably a million, even on political television in the world, in the United States.
[45:07] The question of current Soviet people, people from other China, and China's security.
[45:15] Some had a purpose to visit and go to any country that wasn't matter.
[45:21] True as far as their presence, industrial and political.
[45:28] Even though their presence was industrial and political,
[45:43] On the other hand, over half the people, people of the world, and all over half of the people research, and over half of the world research.
[46:01] It's not going to work out.
[46:03] It's not going to work out.
[46:06] It's going to work out.
[46:08] It's going to work out.
[46:13] to cover all the areas, all of that.
[46:17] We're going to be cycling down the road.
[46:19] And as they develop their resources and funding, we're all on the world stage, because they are capable.
[46:28] I'm telling you, it's impressive, but my own interest
[46:43] We are not forgetting our allies and friends.
[47:16] I'm sorry about that.
[50:29] This is a memorandum to, uh, John Mitchell, copies to, uh, Alderman Colston.
