It was topped of with a 13-minute
ovation that filled the great spaces of
Madison Square Garden with deafen-
ing din that only died down when Sen
ator Hebert, Republican. Rhode Island
began to introduce Mrs. Theodore
Roosevelt. widow of the former Presi-
dent, who in turn, presented Mr.
Hoover
Before the Chief Executive could be-
gin his speech, an excited man shouted
down from one of the high balconies,
you're a liar" He repeated it over and
over until those near him and hall
dozen police mauled him and dragged
him out of the Garden.
Telling his vast audience that this
philosophy upon which the Governor OF
New York proposes to conduct the pres
idency of the United States is the phi
losophy of stagnation, Of despair the
President listed eight proposals OF our
opponents that will endanger or destroy
our system
Declared Contest of PHILOSOPHERS.
This campaign" Mr.. Hoover said, lis
more than a contest between two men.

parties. 1t is contest between two
philosophers of government
we are told by the opposition that
we must have change, that We must
have a new deal. 1t is not the change
that comes from normal development OF
national life to which I object, but the
proposal to alter the whole foundations
of our national life which have been
builded through generations Of testing
and struggle, and of the principle upon
which we have builded the Nation"
Mr.. Hoover said in considering what
the Democrats are proposing I'VE must
go deeper than platitudes and emo
ttonal appeals of the public platform in
the campaign" and study their records
and look into the type of leaders cam
paigning for the Democratic ticket.
Referring to the latter, the Chief Ex-
ecutlve said: L can respect the sincerity
OF these men IN their desire to change
our form of Government and our social
and economic system though shall do
my best tonight to prove they are
wrong"
Greeted With Booes.
The crowd booed, as the President
added
Il refer particularly to Senator Nor
rts. Senator La Toilette, Senator Cut
ting, Senator Huey Long, Senator Vince
Ter, William R. Hearst. and other ex-
ponents of social philosophy different
from the traditional American one"
Unless these men feel assurance of
support to their ideas" he continued.
they certainly would not be supporting
these candidates and the Democratic
party. The zeal of these men indicates
that they have sure confidence that they
Will have voice in the administration of
our Government
Continuing, the President said the
changes proposed by the Democratic
principals and allies are of the most
profound and penetrating character"
Let us pause for moment and ex-
anime the American system of govern
ment, OF social and economic life, which
it is now proposed that we should
alter" he added. Our system is the
product OF our race and of our ex-
perience in building Nation to heights
unparalleled in the whole history of
the world
1t IS system peculiar to the Amer
lean people. 1t differs essentially from
all others in the world. 1t is an Amer
lean system. 1t is founded on the
conception that only through ordered
liberty, through freedom to the indi-
rkouo4 anu CAuol 10 Tie III
dividual will his initiative and enter
prise be summoned to spur the march
Of progress.
o. 3. Held Superior Government.
Questions often arise whether democ-
racy can remain master in its own
house, can preserve the fundamentals
OF our American system. l contend
that it can and l contend that this
American system of ours has demon
strated its validity and superiority over
any system yet invented by human
mind. 1t has demonstrated it in the
face OF the greatest test of our history
that is the emergency which we have
faced in the past three years
In spite of all these obstructions we
did succeed. Our form of government
did prove itself equal to the task We
saved this Nation from a quarter of
century of chaos and degeneration
and We preserved the savings the in
surance policies, gave fighting chance
to men to hold their homes. We in
stalled measures which today are bring
ing back recovery. A million men have
found jobs.
Il therefore contend that the problem
OF today is to continue these measures
and policies to restore this American
system to its normal functioning, to
repair the wounds it has received, to
