...plane seat, McCann began to scratch out in pen and ink the first, 400-word outline of the State of the Union message. He put down five subject headings: 1) "World Responsibility," which later grew to "The Discharge of Our World Responsibility"; 2) "National Security," which became "The Constant Improvement of our National Security"; 3) "Fiscal Integrity"; 4) "Our Production Plant," for which the President substituted "To Foster a Strong Economy"; 5) "Human Resources," which became "The Response to Human Concerns."

Wickizer of Indianapolis predicted that if the ratio of church membership to population in the U.S. remains constant until 1975, Protestants will have to lay out some $8 billion for the construction of 105,000 new church buildings.
