Already a call from Mike—the 2 editors (News Week & Time) must have my statement by midnight for their stories. They swear secrecy. I have to give in but I dont trust them for 1 min. Now it’s over to the Oval O. for the radio broadcast—possibly the last since next week I’ll be a cand. Spent rest of day on desk work & polishing my remarks for Alfalfa. The dinner was as always a lot of laughs & really good companionship. My few jokes were well received then I left early to get back here to the announcement speech & bed.
