lures and we will. We can strike at
war taxation and we must. We must
race the grim necessity with full
knowledge that the task is to be solv-
e dand we must proceed with a full
realization that no statute enactment
by man can repeal the inexorable laws
of nature.
Give And Take But Give
Before Taking Too Much
Our most dangerous tendency is to
expect too much of RIM and
at the same time do for it too little.
We contemplate the immediate task
OF putting our public household in or
der. We need a rigid and yet a
economy combined with fiscal justice
aid must be attended by individual
prudence and thrift which are so es-
Sentlal TO this trying hour and. so re-
assuring for the future.
"fhe business world reflects the dis
t%urbance of wars reaction. Herein
uoWS the likelihood Of material exist
eice. The economic mechanism is in
trlcate II its parts inter-dependent
and II has suffered the jars and shocks
incident 20 abnormal demands, credit
mutations and price upheavals. Teh
normal balances have been impaired.
the channels of distribution have been
clogged, the relations of labor and
management have been strained. We
must seek the readjustment with care
and courage. Our people must give
and take. Prices must reflect the re-
ceding fever of wars activities. Per
haps we shall never know the old level
OF wage again because of wars in
evitable establishments. Compensa-
ton and the n-eCessaries of life will
show their inseparable relationship
but we must strive for normally to
reach stability.
All the penalties will not be light
nor evenly distributed. There is no
way. of making them so. There is no
instant step from disorder to order.
We must face a condition of grim
reality, charge off our losses and start
afresh. 1t is the Oldest lesson of civil
%ization. l would like government to
do all it can to mitigate them.
In understanding, in mutually of
interest, in concern for the common
good our tasks will be solved. No al
tered system will work a miracle. Any
wild experiment will only add to the
confusion. Our best assurance lies in
efficient administration of u proved
system.
THE forward course of the business
cycle is unmistakable. The peoples
OF the world are turning from destric-
ton to production. Industry has chan
ged order and our own people are
turning to resume the normal onward
way. The call is for productive Amer
lea to go On. l know that Congress
and the administration will favor ev-
cry wise government policy to aid the
resumption and encourage the contin-
uance of progress.
Il speak for administrative efficien-
cy, for lightened tax burdens, for
sound commercial practises, for ado-
quate credit facilities, for sympathetic
concern for all agricultural problems,
for the omission of unnecessary inter
ference by the government with bust
ness, for an end of government expert
ments in business and for more eff
cient business in the administration Of
the government.
human Side Must Square
With Progress
with all of this we must attend
mindfully to the human side of all ac-
t~ivities st that social, industrial and
economic justice will be squared with
the purposes OF a righteous people.
With the nationwide introduction Of
womanhOod into our political life we
may on her intuitiOns, her re-
finement, her intelligence and her in
tluence to eXalt the social order. We
may count upon her exercise of the
full privileges and performances of
the duties of citizenship to speed the
attainment of the highest state.
Il wish for an America no less alert
in guarding against dangers from
within than it is watchful against enc
nsies from without. Our fundamental
law recognizes no class, no group, no
section. There must be none in legis-
lation or administration. The supreme
inspiration is h ommOn veal. HUI
mainly hungers for international peace
and we crave it with all mankind. My
most fervent prayer for America is for
industrial peace with its rewards
widely and generally distributed
among other inspirations OF equal OPP
portunity. No one justly may deny the
equality of opportunity which made us
what We are.
I'VE have mistaken appropriateness.
To embrace it would be to challenge
the reality and due concern for max
ing all citizens fit for participation in
our government.
Preparedness will give added
strength to our citizenship and mag
Nifty our achievements. If revolution
insists on o~verturning the established
order let other peoples make the ira
gic experiment. There is no place for
it in America. When the world wal
threatened civilization we pledged
our resources and our lives to its pres
ervation and when revolution threat
ems we renew III allegiance TO it.

Ours is a constitutional freedom
