From that point he could easily

ten minutes. He must have walked

that he had hardly taken off his coat

glut in the labor market.
Public works, greatly needed,
canals and roads, irrigation and
drainage should be taken in hand
at once, without red tape delay.
Every dollar thus invested would
add to the nations permanent
wealth. And such work would
take up the slack in labor, keep the
wheels going, enable the public to
buy the farmers produce at a fair
price.
Artificial prosperity, based on
spending public billions for can
non, dynamite, and other killing
machinery, should be replaced by
sound prosperity that would come
from spending the public money

The United States sent two mil
