PRAYER FOR INDUSTRIAL PEACE.
| wish for an America no less alert in
guarding against dangers from within
than Il Is watchful aga inst enemies from
without. Our fundamental law recog
nizes no class, no group, no section.
There must be none in legislation or ad-
mInistration. The supreme inspiration
is the commonweal Humanity hungers
for international peace and We crave IT
for all mankind. My most reverent
prayer for America Is for industrial peace
distributed amid the inspirations or
equal opportunity. No one justly may
deny the equality Of opportunity which
made US what we are. We have mistaken
unpreparedness to embrace II to the
challenge OF the reality and due concern
! for making all citizens fit for participa-
/ ton will give added strength OF citizen

established order let other peoples make
the tragic experiments. There Is no place
for 1t in America. When world war
threatened civilization we pledged cur
resources and our lives to its, preserva-
ton anu when rev olutlon threatens we

new our conservation. Ours is a consu-
tutional freedom sacredly protected. our

vance than to a settlement table after

feeling amid dependable prosperity and
all the blessings which attend.
PROTECTION OF INDUSTRIES.
1t has been proved again and again
that we cannot, while throwing our mar
kets open to the world, maintain Amer
/ lean standards of living and opportunity
| and hold our Industrial eminence In such
unequal competition. There Is q Turing
/ fallacy in the theory Of banished barriers
| Of trade, but preserved American stand
ards require our higher production costs
| to be reflected in our tariffs on imports.
! Today as never before when peoples are
seeking trade restoration and expansion
we must adjust our tariffs to the new
| order. We seek participation in the
/ worlds exchanges because therein lies
our way to widen influence and the tri-
umphs of peace. We know full we'll we
| cannot sell where we do not buy, and
we cannot sell successfully where we do
not carry. Opportunity is calling not
alone for the restoration, but for a new
era In production, transportation and
trade. We shall answer 1t best by meet
| ing the demand of a SURPRISING home
market, by promoting self reliance in pro-
| duction, and by bidding enterprise,
| genius and efficiency to carry our car
goes In American bottoms to the marts
! of the world.
AMERICAN HOMES.
We would not have America living
within and for herself alone, but we would
have her self-reliant, Independent and ever
nObler, stronger and richer. Believing In
higher standards, reared through consti-
| tutional liberty and maintained Oppor-
| tunity we invite the world to the same
heights. But pride in things wrought is
