Chief among the reactions to the "a
tional recovery efforts of President
| Roosevelt and the organized forces of
the Government is the evidence, reported
by the press. that unity of purpose has
/ made notable progress. Patriotic zeal
| Is observed, accompanied by statements
that the administration has staked all
on this policy. that complete co-opera,
| tion is necessary. and that general
good will is potent in the struggle
toward better conditions.
President Roosevelt has charted q
bold course and will stand or fall on its
Mirror. with the belief that ''an over
whelming majority will cooperate" !"
That the promised cooperation will win
the battle for recovery is the assurance
given by the Columbia IS. c. State,
while the Lincoln State Journal AYERS
that the drive has met with kindly
response" and the Lima (Ohio) News
declares that 1T Is a noble undertaking
and we cannot afford to shirk, evade
or attempt to circumvent the true
meaning of the program"
| Lauding the spirit impaired by the
President, the Portland Oregon Journal
suggests that you can almost feel as
| if you had been in the White House in
personal conversation with the Presi-
dent on the state Of the Nation" and
finds reason for confidence in "his
manner. the tone of his voice." and in
his harmony with the purposes and
hopes of the citizenry." The Cleveland
Plain Dealer feels that "a major de-
velopment in American history Is here
in its first stages" and that "the re-
sponse to 1t from every section Of the
country Is as inspiring a demonstration
of national solidarity as one has ever
seen in a time of peace"
With protest against the attitude
Of the London Times in offering the
idea of universal disaster" If the great
American experiment fails" the New
York Times describes the movement as
one which is enlisting hope and cour-
age" and advises that "the thing to do
is to place the emphasis on the positive
motives, the promising aspects, the
gains already recorded" The Spar
tanburg IS. c. Herald Journal de-
clares that "it is time that will test
the courage, the comradeship, the pa
triotism of all men," and that cit is Q
time for whole-hearted. earnest, hope
full cooperation"
Industry is cooperating, asserts the
Asbury Park Evening Press, while the
Des Moines Tribune quotes local lead
er to the effect that "the President has
asked moratorium on selfshness," and
the Omaha World Herald AYERS that
Nebraska will labor, without stint, to
make the program successful" The
Chicago Journal of Commerce holds
that "the flood Of answers to the Presi-
dents appeal choking the mails and
the telegraph wires, is ample proof that
Americans are expecting great things"
The Chicago Tribune promises "a sim
cere and whole-hearted response from
the main body Of American business
men and from the Nation" The Osh-
kosh Daily Northwestern recognizes "an
enthusiasm equal to that caused by a
wartime appeal to national patriotism. :"
The Minneapolis Tribune calls for the
building up Of 'the spirit Of loyalty at
any cost"
indication of the beginning of In
dustrial recovery" Is seen by the Nash
vile Banner, while the Rockford Reg
ister- Republic, adopting the comparison
Of the recovery machine to huge loco
motive, suggests that "the administra-
ton is sanding the track and the heavy
wheels are starting to grip" The will
Of the people to cooperate Is pro-
while the Fort Worth Star-Telegram
holds that "the call is out for cooper
alton" and that 1.-THE sign Of the Blue
Eagle is the official trade mark Of pro-
gressive industry in the United States"
The Star Telegram concludes that, just
as in war time, recruits for service
should be uniformed for easy identifi-
cation" The Houston Chronicle is con-
vinced that "the loss to America would
not be greater in an ill-conducted war
than from q thwarted recovery effort"
The Connellsville Courier advises that
the Presidents appeal was directed to
the enlightened self-interest Of the peo-
pie as sNhole," while the BirmiughAm
