sumer. We cannot make our eco- homie order endure for long unless we can bring about wiser. more equitable distribution of the na- tional income.
 The men who built up an eco- homie system capable of supplying the wants of all. Roosevelt said. are capable of insuring that "all who are willing and able to work receive from 1t at least the neces- sities of life. The, reward for a days work will have to be greater on the average than 1t has been and the reward to capital, especial ly capital which Is speculative, will have to be less."
 Roosevelt said he believed the average citizen would rather have smaller return on his savings in return for greater security for his principal" than to face the pros- pect of being millionaire one mo- ment and a pauper the next.
 Tt is toward that objective that we must move if we are to profit by our recent experience" he con- cluded.

Forgotten Man Must Have Larger Share
 From Labor Profits
Millions of People Will Not Stand Idly By Much Longer Wanting for Things Within Reach, Says Gover- nor Roosevelt

Atlanta, Ga, May 23.-(UP)-- Bold experiments to give the for gotten man" larger share of the profits from his labor. thus increas- ing his buying power. are advocat- ed by Governor Franklin D. Roose- welt.

 'The millions who are in want will stand by silently forever while the things to satisfy their needs are within easy reach," he warned.
 Tt is common sense to take a method and try 1t; if 1t falls, ad- init 1t frankly and try another. But above all, try something"
 The governors address included many references, which while not naming Wall street, eastern finan- clal interests, and political leaders allied with those leaders, were in- terpreted as directed toward them.
 The country, he said, lis on the threshold of a Fundamental charge in economic thought"

I've cannot allow our economic life to be controlled by that small group of men whose chief outlook upon the social welfare is tinctured by the fact that they can make huge profits from the lending of money and the marketing of secur- ities.
 Many of those whose primary solicitude Is confined to the welfare of what they call capital have fail- ed to read the lessons of the past few years and have been moved less by calm analysis of the needs of the nation as a whole than by a blind determination to preserve their own special stakes in the eco- homie order.
 "Our basic trouble" in the past few years was not an insufficiency of capital" he said, flor we &C., cumulated so much that our great bankers were wing with each other. some of them employing questionable methods in their ef- forts to lend this capital at home and abroad.
