benefits of American life were
threatened. The crisis came in
the spring of this year. 1t was
necessary to meet that crisis.
Again it was necessary for all
of lis to go back to fundamen-
tails.
Millions were out Of work,
the banks were closed, the
credit of the government itself
was threatened. The car was
stalled.
U. S. Credit Not a Theory
Obviously, the first objective
was to get the engine running
again. 1t is true that we sue
ceeded in reopening the great
majority of the banks, but this
would not have been possible
if at the same time we had not
been able to restore the credit
of the government.
In speaking of national
credit, we are again dealing
with a real thing, not a theory
in books. There is such a thing
as national credit. 1t depends
upon national unity. Without
it the government can not get
the money to live. You and I
depend upon it, and in right
sense your welfare and mine
rest upon it.
That is not just an academic
proposition. Industry cannoG
be restored, people cannot be
put back to work, banks cannot
be kept open, human suffering
cannot be cared for if the Gov
ernment itself is bankrupt. We
realize now that the great
human values, not for you
alone, but for all American cltl'
zens. rest upon the unimpa1red
credit of the United States.
It was because of this that
we undertook to take the ma
tional Treasury out of the red
and put it into the black. And
in the doing of it we laid down
two principles which directly
affected benefits to veterans
to you and to veterans of other
wars.
Debt to Disabled
The first principle, following
inevitably from the obligation
of citizens to bear arms, is that
the Government has a respon-
sibility for and toward those
who suffered injury or con-
tracted disease while serving
in it's defense.
The second principle is that
no person, because he wore a
uniform, must thereafter be
placed in a special class OF
beneficiaries over and above
all other citizens. The fact of
wearing a uniform does not
mean that he can demand and
receive from his Government a
benefit which no other citizen
receives. 1t does not mean that
because a person served in the
defense of his country, per-
formed a basic obligation of
citizenship, he should receive
a pension from his Government
because of a disability incur
red after his service had ter

up, but an increased purchas-
ing power must stimulate it
further.
Your task and mine are SIM
liar. Each one of us must play
an individual part in our own
field in dealing with these many
problems, but at the same time
we must realize that the individ-
ual part belongs to a closely re-
lated whole-the national unity
of purpose and Of action.
I ask your further and even
greater efforts in our program
of national recovery. You who
wore the uniform, you who
served, you who took the oath
of allegiance to the American
Legion, you who support the
ideals of American citizenship, I
have called to the colors again.
AS your Commander-in-Chlef
and your comrade, I am conf
dent that yoU will respond.
The Washington times., 1933-10-02

the strength and the very exist
ence of the Legion depend on
the maintenance of that princi-
pie. You are not here as Re.
publicanS or Democrats. You
are here, as you should be, as
Americans to work with your
government for the good Of the
average citizen. I am grateful
to the Legion for the splendid
stand it has taken-for the
battle order it has issued.
The realization of our ma
tional program can not be at
tanned in six months. Re
employment has proceeded only
a part of the way. From week
to week there will be ups and
downs, but the net result is a
consistent gain. The freezing OF
credits has been stopped and
the ice is definitely melting.
Farm income has been in
creased; it must be further in
creased. Industry has picked

CRAWFORD
CASES BEFORE
: HIGH COURT

BY International News Service
The Supreme Court opened an
dght-months term which may pro
duce inomentous decisions involv.
ing emergency legislation evolved
IN the desperate effort to solve
the perplexities of a topsy-turvy
economic world.
With cases already on the
docket 5ouching upon principles OF
the new DEAL" it is probable that
before June the high court will
face some of the most important
legislative acts in generations.
Attacks on conStitutionality OF
the emergency farm relief act as
invoked by Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wallace to restrict production
and control the price of milk are
held certain to reach the court.
Cases already are in lower courts.
Minnesota Situation
A challenge to the validity OF
The mortgage moratorium act Of
the Minnesota Legislature brings
70 the court the question Of how
far the economic emergency can
be used to upset the right of con-
tract.
Validity of the moratorium law
was attacked by the Home Build
ing Loan Association of Minneap-
oils. The Minnesota Supreme
Court upheld it.
The high court will have the op-
portunity, through a South Caro-
dina case, to indicate the lengths
the comptroller of the currency
can go in Strengthening the bank
situation.
The case involved the right of
State authorities to name an Off
Ger as receiver of the bank, SINH.
lar to the action of the Comp
tfoller of the Currency in naming
bank officers as conServators of
national banks.
Taxation Cases
Liquor legislation, temporarily
at least, will be in the background
as the court meets.
Despite many threats the court
did not have before it any case
attacking the constitutionality of
the 3.2 per cent beer law passed
by Congress, six months ago.
The imminence of repeal of the
eighteenth amendment probably
disposes Of the State convention
method of amending the Constitu-
ton.
Scores of cases involving taxa,
ton, both State and Federal; pro-
h1bition cases, patent and other
business disputes are before the
court. The docket is far heavier
than that of last year.
Negro Rights
Two cases involve the rights Of
Negroes. In one Fuel Lee, convict
cd in Maryland of numbering q
White family, contends his convic.
ton was invalid because Negroes
were excluded from the grand
jury which indicted him.

How Many Have Been DOnee
Twenty years ago the Civic club
asked people for suggestions for do
ing things around Oakland, and
offered prize. The object was to see
what people of the town felt was most
needed.
The following things were turned
in:
Stop expectorating on pavements;
enforce laws we now have namely the
12-mile speed limit for automobiles,
the curfew for boys and girls, the
keeping Of cows, horses and chickens.
Clean Yough river of refuse; estab-
fish garbage system; public park
with a drinking fountain in it.
Clean up Railroad street; purchase
lot and donate it to some mill; keep
streets sprinkled during dry weather;
place drinking fountain in the public
square to counterfeit the influence of
the ten saloons; elevated walk from
railroad to street; wiping out of
saloons.
Transferal of hotel site from B. and
o. to Oakland for purpose of erecting
summer hotel.
Have mayor and council not tear up
streets during summer months; en-
ploy trained nurse by subscription;
have policeman get rid of fiendish
ours and worthless dogs that make
nights hideous with their yelpihg;
getting rid Of unnecessary noise from
B. and o. engines while passing thru
