Remarks at a Breakfast for Vermont Women Representatives of Dairy and Agricultural Organizations, Chittenden, Vermont

June 23, 1955

Of course, Mrs. Proctor and ladies, there is really nothing for me to say except thank you.

I thank you, of course, for this present. But far more for the cordial friendliness you have exhibited to me here. I count this breakfast a great opportunity to be a little closer to you people, to meet you, to exchange a hand-clasp and to go away believing that I have made some new friends among a people with whom I am going to leave a big portion of my heart.

Thank you.

Note: The President spoke at Mountain Top Inn at 8:58 a.m.

In his opening remarks the President referred to Mrs. Mortimer R. Proctor, of Proctor, Vt., in charge of women's activities for the Vermont State Dairy Festival, who presented a corsage of red clover, the State flower of Vermont.
