October 1962 page 18 by ric gustafson
Bobby was watching the International Horse Show with his two daughters.
All of a sudden, his driver and another man walk up to Bobby.
" Sir, there is an important call for you".
" Thank you". Bobby walks over to a nearby ticket table. He picks up the phone. " Hello, this is the Attorney General". He recognized the voice. " Hello Rusk".
" Bobby, we received word from the Russians".
" And?".
" They are agreeing to withdraw their missiles from Cuba".
My fellow citizens
I want to take this opportunity to report on the conclusions this government has reached on the basis of yesterday's photographs. The Soviet missile bases in Cuba are being dismantled. Missiles and related equipment are being crated. Fixed installations at these sites are being destroyed.
The United States intends to follow closely the completion of this work. We will continue to keep the American people informed on this vital matter.
Thank you.
The End
