CONSTITUTES New Deal
This constitutes what I conceive to
be a new deal in the restoration OF for
eign trade-it is the way Of economic
peace and stability to reasonable and
sound prosperity. This measure Of JUS
! tice can come only through revival OF
industry and employment.
Not charity, but a chance to earn
! a living. This is the hope and demand
| of the men forgotten in the policies OF
the present Republican leadership"
That sentence ended his prepared
! address He added. however. his right
| arm outstretched and his voice stress
ing every word:
"All my life I have been doer. not
a phrasemaker. I ask your help IN
support Of liberal views and liberal
measures. I ask it in the name Of a
stricken world. ! ask you to give me
| your help"

as a further bid for Republican ard
Progressive support

against weak and mistaken and lnSln-

and political belief to join me in this

/ A dozen village and country schools
hsd turned out, the children lining the
roadway. At many of them Mr.. Roose-

words to the youngsters. many of whom
were japanese children, who gazed
silently at him and his party. From
MANY of the truck and frui1 gardens.

waved a greeting.
During the course of his days ac-
| tivities Mr.. Roosevelt visited hospital
for crippled children at Seattle, and
to them he made the only public ref
