TRANSCRIPT: SEQ. 3: FORD: "In the United States, recovery is well underway. Each week brings additional evidence of renewed economic health. I am determined to fight against an acceleration of inflation, that could restrain this recovery. The achievement of a durable economic recovery in America, is also in the world interest. A sound healthy growing U.S. economy is the best lasting contribution that this nation can make to other nations.



SEQ. 5: HEALEY: "What we are seeking is not uniformity of policy, on the contrary it is ensuring policies that are independent, complimentary and compatible. And one of the advantages I think in the present time is that, precisely because of the difference in the situation of the various countries, world recovery is likely to be staggered. Some countries in the lead, some countries coming in later on so that the ???chronised rule which was largely responsible for the overheating in 1973 and the inflation and recession which followed can this ??? avoided."
