15:54:56 CU speaking to camera: “...everything is going up, where is it going to end. Record inflation has robbed the purchasing power of your dollar. And for three and a half years this administartion has been unable to control it. When Pres. Ford left office at the end of 1976 the inflation rate was around 5%. Jimmy Carter told us that was too high, much too high. Well, this year Carter inflation has hit 18%. I’m very worried as all Americans are. And I’m prepared to do somethting about it. One, I will institute an immediate freeze on all Federal hiring; that will help us to start slowing down the growth of the Federal Bureaucracy, the single greatest cause of inflation in America today. Two, I will order that every example of waste & inefficiency in government be eliminated in as orderly a manner as possible. This will take great determination on the part of the President. Well, I intend to be very determined. Three, we won’t just stop w/ the waste & inefficiencies that we find; why not get the benefit of a fresh outside look at things. What I’ll do is call in the best minds from industry & from labor, from many sectors & ask them to volunteer their time as a service to our country. Their assignment will be to go over the entire Federal Government w/ a fine tooth comb & tell us where additional examples of waste are. With that done we’ll do the rest. Four, I will set as a very high priority the balancing of the budget. A balance budget works to combat inflation...
15:56:34 Five, we’ll think price tag whenever we think program. In the past programs have been developed w/o concern for cost. Well, no more. When presenting the tax payer w/ a new program we’ll level w/ him about wht that program is going to cost. The Federal Government doesn’t give us programs, it charges us using our money to support, not only the program but the high priced bureaucracy to administer it. Six, I will invite to the White House representatives of the private sector & from labor. We’ll sit down & get their honest views & come up w/ recommendations about inflation that are fair to both sides & to the American people as a whole....
15:57:24 We can have a more streamlined government...

I would like to discuss several points: why the Soviet Union should feel threatened by us when we have never started a war, and never will. ...see your military build up & your attempts to expand your influence in the world as threatening to us. And this is why we are rebuilding our own strength. We feel we must defend ourselves & to make sure war is never conceivable. But we need to go beyond that in our discussion of our rivalry. I would like to share w/ General Secretary Gorbachev our hopes & our plans. We both have much to do at home & if we understand each others priorities better (abrupt ending).
