Mr. Hughes's Speech.

Mr.. Hughes's speech in full follows:
at is characteristic of the American
people that they are not deceived either
by extreme claims or by the unjustified
criticism of campaigns attempting to
minimize well known achievements.
There is an instructive gard for their
own interests which reno RS futile mere
partisan assault. They know when an
Administration has served them well.
They test it by the intimate knowledge
of conditions which the man In the
street has of productivity and employ
ment, OF prosperity and security.
when this Administration came into
power every one was talking OF the diff
ficulty, II not the impossibility, of its
tasks. 1t saddened our friends of the
opposing party to think of what we
could not do. But we have gone for
ward so successfully and swiftly with
one accomplishment after another that
our opponents are compelled to resort
10 false issues which cannot serve them.
In every position they take you will OBJ
serve that they seek futile controversy
with no promise of achievement; the
Administration has sought achievement
with a minimum of controversy.
