[Question and answer period following speech of Senator John F. Kennedy, Democratic fund-raising dinner, Hotel Syracuse, Syracuse, N.Y., September 29, 1960]

Kennedy explains that while he is against Jimmy Hoffa, he supports labor unions. A Yonkers salesman asks Kennedy if he is hoping his next child will be a boy; Kennedy responds that he wouldn't really mind having a second daughter. Kennedy discusses his plan to provide medical care to the aged through Social Security, explains his program to combat unemployment, explains why federal support for teachers' salaries would not lead to federal control over education, and responds to Richard Nixon's statement that the Democratic platform would cost several billion dollars and result in higher taxes.

  • "Concluding his answer to a question on the unemployment problem, Kennedy stresses the need for passage of the Area Redevelopment Bill. Kennedy explains why federal support for teachers' salaries would not lead to federal control over education. In response to a question quoting Richard Nixon's statement that the Democratic platform would cost several billion dollars and result in higher taxes, Kennedy discusses balanced budgets and the federal deficit."
  • "Labor representative Walter Butler asks Kennedy how he intends to address the problem of increasing unemployment. Kennedy replies that the problem is two-fold: first, there has been a general slowdown in the economy; second, the Area Redevelopment Bill needs to be passed. Kennedy discusses the steel industry as an example of the general slowdown, then explains the benefits of the Area Redevelopment Bill, which would provide distressed areas with capital at a low interest rate, pure water, and vocational training, and would steer defense contracts to areas of chronic unemployment."
