mental law recognizes no class, no
group, no section. There must be none

America Is for Industrial peace. with

No one justly may deny the equality

Protection Of Industries.
1t has been proved again and
again that we cannot, while throwing
} our markets open to the world, main
tain American standards of'living and
opportunity and hold our Industrial
eminence in such Unequal competition
There Is alluring falacy in the theory
of banished barriers of trade, but pre-
served American standards require oul
higher production costs to be reflected
in our tariffs on imports. Today az
never before, when peoples are seek
ing trade, restoration and expansion
we must adjust our tariffs to the new
order We seek participation in thu
: worlds exchanges, because therein lie
our way to widened influence and tn,
. triumphs Of peace. We know full wei
: we cannot sell where we do not Blu,
i and we cannot sell successfully wher
we do not carry.

It for the restoration, but for a new err

toms to the marts Of the world.
ii An America Of Homes.
l. We would not have an Amcric
| living within and for herself alont
but we would have her self reliant ii
dependent and ever nobler, stronge
and richer. Believing In our bghC
standards, reared through constitution
al liberty and maintained opportun
ty, we invite the world to the sam
heights. But pride in things wrougf
Is no reflex of completed tasl
. Common welfare is the goal of OF
. national endeavor. Wealth is not II
imical to welfare, it ought to be II
friendliest agency.
There never can be equality Of n
wards or possessions so long as tn
human plan contains varied talen
and differing degrees Of Industry on
thrift but ours ought to be a countI
free from great blotches Of distresse
poverty. We ought to find way
guard against the perils and penaltit
of unemployment. We want an Anne
lea Of homes, Illuminated with hoI
and happiness. where mothers, FRI
from the necessity for long hours
toll beyond their own doors, may pr
side as BELTS the hearthstone i
American citizenship. We want Il
cradle Of American childhood rockt
under conditions SO wholesome and
hopeful that no blight may touch 1t
its development and we want to pr
vide that no selfish interest. NO IN
terial necessity, no lack Of opportuI
r ty shall prevent the gaining Of t
education 20 essential to best citize
