BredaBreda (population 160,000) is a city in the southern part of the Netherlands, in the province of Noord-Brabant. The rivers Mark[?] and Aa come together here.The municipality also comprises the following towns, villages and townships: Bavel, De Rith, Effen, Eikberg, Haagse Beemden, Hoeveneind, Kerkeind, Lies, Prinsenbeek, Roosberg, Strikberg, Teteringen, Ulvenhout. The city itself has the following suburban neighbourhoods: Princenhage (former village), Ginneken (former village), de Haagse Beemden (newly built neigbourhood) and de Hoge Vucht (newly built neigbourhood) The Dutch Royal Military Academy, Koninklijke Militaire Academie[?], is located here. Economic activities are mainly industrial. Breda traditionally was (and still is) a center of the candy industry. Breda also has a sugar factory. Breda also has a city center with beautiful old buildings and singels (moats). The shops and a shopping mall are located here. Breda has train stations Breda and Breda-Prinsenbeek, providing connections with Holland (Dordrecht - Rotterdam - Den Haag) and Tilburg - Eindhoven/Den Bosch, and from station Breda also to Roosendaal with connection to Vlissingen. Until 1795 Breda was (part of) the barony Breda; the baron was also count of Nassau, Germany; Prince of Orange and stadtholders of the Dutch Republic (from 1572-1650, 1672-1702, 1747-1795). But unless we stop the rise in prices, the cost of
government's ability to plan programs for progress for the future will
increase rather than a cut--and that is the requests of those agencies with
which the word.html">word "war" has perhaps too often been used--the war on poverty,
one area where the word "war" is appropriate it is in the fight against
increasingly threaten our cities, our homes, and our lives.
We have a tragic example of this problem in the Nation's Capital, for whose
doubt if many Members of this Congress who live more than a few blocks from
tonight.
Last year this administration sent to the Congress 13 separate pieces of
narcotics, crime in the District of Columbia.
None of these bills has reached my desk for signature.
I am confident that the Congress will act now to adopt the legislation I
can under existing law.html">law.html">law, but new and stronger weapons are needed in that
cutting edge in the effort to eliminate street crime, burglaries, murder,
should play a greater role in working in partnership with these agencies.
That is why 1971 Federal spending for local law enforcement will double
and State rather than with Federal Government. But in the field of
special responsibility it should fulfill. And we should make Washington,
and the world of respect for law rather than lawlessness.
I now turn to a subject which, next.html">next to our desire for peace, may well
seventies.
In the next 10 years we shall increase our wealth by 50/50.html">50 percent. The
sense, 50 percent better off, 50 percent. All is still licensed under the GNU FDL.
