Following this statement the President answered questions from the press on a variety of topics including the foreign aid program, the 1962 tax bill, the proposed tax bill for 1963, whether the United States would assist France in the development of nuclear weapons, and the plan announced by United States Surgeon General Luther Terry to investigate the link between cigarette smoking and disease.
