Signed proclamation—May 6 Nat. Day of Prayer. Spoke to about 250 of my appointees who double in brass & go out on the mashed potato circuit in our behalf. The dentist chair for a cleaning & off to Camp David. Still snow up here & more promised tonite. Ran a movie called “Missing.” It is a pretty biased slam at Chile & our own government.
