cause one OF the men who have stood
nearest Roosevelt in the working out of
those policies has only recently left public
life. / refer to Clifford Pinchot
There is no man in our country to-day
who has done more for equality of oppor-
tunity, for the rights of the great masses
against special privilege; and his separa-
tion from the public service is one of the
greatest losses that have suffered
But fortunately, II does not mean that
his work for every one of these policies
will cease in any particular. 1t merely
that he and the rest of the people who
have Joined in the fight for CARRYING on
the Roosevelt policies engaged in a
fight which is not for the day, or one year
or two years, but for generations to come
The policies that were initiated are the
what this nation ought 10 be I'm the future
1t means that all right minded men and
women must recognize that the things that
are worth while are the things that look
to the future, that look to the individual
betterment of the people of our country
