This file from the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library, digitized by the Internet Archive, holds Congressman Gerald R. Ford's Fifth District weekly radio scripts from January to June 1966, plus several National Republican Congressional Committee scripts. They deal with President Johnson's budget, inflation, four-year House terms, electoral college reform, foreign aid, the Vietnam War, rent subsidies and Memorial Day. The extracted text does not discuss UFOs.
