Felix McKnight, the vice chair man of the Dallas Times Herald, quoted Ford as saying European- American cooperation is essential for all of the consumer nations. He said the President said: “If we don’t go together, the OPEC (Or ganization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) nations will pick us off one at a time.” Several news executives charac terized Ford’s breakfast remarks as a “sales talk”, but said they were impressed with his frankness. T was very impressed by his in formality compared with the last three presidents I’ve been around,” said Sam Wood, editor of the Austin American-Statesman.

Hunter, vice president and managing editor of the Houston Post, said Ford acknowledge some disagreements in policy with Texas Gov. Dolph Briscoe, but that these were not severe. “He made the point that the points of disagreement with Briscoe were not unresolvable, ” said Hunter. “He made several refer ences to his long years in Congress and that a president doesn’t get ev erything that he asks for and that he was a practical man.” Everett D. Collier, editor of the Houston Chronicle, said Ford was “persuasive and convincing.” “He gives the impression of can dor,” said the editor. “There was nothing new in his remarks but he is willing to answer any question. He seems to have good rapport with the press and re spect for its functions.” Earl H. Rast Jr., the vice presi dent of KFDA-TV in Amarillo, said the president met with the group of news executives “to ask the com munications media to take his mes sage back to their communities.” The President left the Shamrock Hilton, where he stayed during his visit here, after the breakfast with news executives.
