II had been discovered a few centuries ago Jupiter

President Roosevelt also sent a message

prehensive synopsis of the document:
The president declares his entire con-
currence with the statements and con-

important documents ever laid before the
American people. It contains the first in
ventory of Its natural resources ever

the means of progress. and calls atten-
ton to the essential conditions upon
which the perpetuity, safety and welfare
of this nation now rest and must always
continue to rest.

stitute an imperative call to action. The
situation they disclose demands that we,
