This folder contains a draft of suggested remarks by Special Assistant Counsel to the President Lee C. White for a filmed statement by President John F. Kennedy for the annual conference of the Retail Clerks International Association (RCIA). The draft of the speech commends the RCIA for their desegregated unions, but emphasizes that the same spirit of equality must also be present in an individual's everyday conduct and attitudes.
