Washington, July 25-President Roosevelt's radio address last night pleading for support of his indus trial recovery program follows: After the adjournment of the his torical special session of the con- gress five weeks ago, purposely refrained from addressing you for two very good reasons.
 First, I think that we all wanted the opportunity of little quiet thought to examine and assimilate in mental picture the crowding events of the 100 days which had been devoted to the starting of the wheels of the new deal.
 Secondly, wanted few weeks in which to set up the new admin istrative organizationA and to see the first fruits of our careful plan- ming.
 I thing it will interest you If I set forth the fundamentals of this planning for national recovery; and this I am very certain will make it abundantly clear to you that all of the proposals and all of the legislation since the 4th day of March have not been just a collection of haphazard schemes, but rather the orderly component parts of a connected and logical whole.
 Long before Inauguration Day became convinced that individual effort and local effort and even dis jointed federal effort had failed and of necessity would fail and, there fore, that rounded leadership by the federal government had be- come necessity both of theory and of fact. Such leadership, how ever, had its beginning in preserv- ing aud strengthening the credit of the United States government, be- cause without that no leadership was a possibility. For years the government had not lived within it's income. The immediate task

That a wholesale theft of copper from the American Brass Company has been going on since last Octo- Der, was disclosed this morning in the city court when Anthony Jan- rel<as, IS. of $50 North Riverside street, who was arrested last week and later released on $1,000 bond bending trial. was arraigned this morning before Judge Edward Mascoio and ordered held under $6,000 bonds. The increase in the bond was ordered over the strenu- ous objections of Attorney George Crocicchia.
 The latter, though, countered by demanding trial. declaring that all the witnesses were present for the state. Prosecutor Joseph Neagle objected and offered to try the case Friday. The court comprom- ised by ordering trial tomorrow providing all the states witnesses are present. Originally Attorney Crocicchia had asked for two- weeks continuance but changed hfs request when the bond was irl- creased, explaining that his client could not raise that amount.

other still was loaded" and ready to be placed over the kerosene burners.
 The sides of the house bulged out about three feet from their stone base. An 18-inch stone cellar wall was pushed out 0 foot on the south side and from to inches on the east side. Cellar joists were cracked.
 The Keegan bedroom was direct ly over the compartment in the cellar where the still was located The bed was iialf out through the side of the wall where the ex- plosion had pushed 1t.
 The large set tubs and kitchen range were scrambled together in the center of the kitchen; the bed room was in complete disorder as was the parlor and dining room. Furniture and other furnishings were thrown all over the rooms.
 Various reactions to the ex- plosion were related by neighbors. Next door to the Stulpinis home is a three-family block housing two families with 12 children ranging in ages from to 20 years.
 Eli Santoro, occupant of the first floor, was at home when the ex- plosion occurred. He is working for the Mutual Aid Unemployment Fund.
 "It sounded just like a blast ing" Mir Santora said. "The build- ing shook and at first we thought 1t was an earthquake. We, rushed out when we saw the fire engines coming and ran to the back when we noticed the smoke coming from the rear"
 Patsy Dicchiara who lives on the second floor with his wife and six children said it sounded like a dull boom. The whole family was scared for a moment until they looked out the windows to see what had happened.
 Mrs William Keller, who lives at II Railroad Hill street and who is the mother of two children said 1t sounded like large truck dump ing over.
 Fire Chief Henry Fl. Heitman, Fire Marshal Dennis J. Lahey, Building Inspector Patrick J. Car lin and Electrical Inspector Mar tin c. O'Rourke conducted an in- vestigation of the premises.
 Officers Daniel J. Carson. Patrick J. Moylan and Edward Roach of the emergency squad arrived and ordered the still dismantled and had it carted to police headquar- tcrs.
 Patrolman Richard Mccarthy and Motor Patrolman Joseph Lo vallo arrested Stulpinis when he hurried to his home from the Benedict & Burnham branch of the American Brass Co, where he is employed. Officer Mccarthy and Patrolman John Carmody also placed Mrs Stulpinis under arrest.

as we have gone we have reason to believe that it will produce good results.
 It is obvious that if we can great ly increase the purchasing power of the tens of millions of our peo- pie who make living from farm ing and the distribution of farm crops, we will greatly increase the consumption of those goods which are turned out by industry. Bringing Back Industry That brings me to the final step l-bringing back industry along sound lines.
 Last autumn, on several oc- casions, I expressed my faith that we can make possible by democra- tic self-discipline in industry gen. eral increases in wages and short tening of hours sufficient to enable industry to pay its workers enough | to let those workers buy and use the things that their labor pro- duces.
 This can be, done only if we per- init and encourage cooperative ac- tion in industry, because 1t Is ob- vious that without united action a few selfish men in each eompeti- tive group will pay starvation wages and insist on long hours o1 work. Others in that group must either follow suit or close up shop We have seen the result of action of that kind in the continuing des. cent into the economic hell of the last four years.
 There is a clear way to reverse that process: If all employers ir each competitive group agree tc pay their workers the same wagei --reasonable wages--and require the same hours-reasonable hours |--then higher wages and shorter hours will hurt no employer.
 Idea of Industrial Act
 Moreover, such action Is bettei for the employer than unemploy. ment and low wages, because | makes more buyers for his product That is the simple idea which is thu very heart of the industrial recov' cry act.
 | On the basis of this simple prin. ciple of everybody doing things to gether, we are starting out on thi' nationwide attack on unemploy' ment. It will succeed if our peo pie understand it--in the big indus tries, in the little shops, in thu great cities and in the small VII lages.
 There is nothing complicated about it and there is nothing par ticulariy new in the principle. | goes back to the basic idea of SO ciety and of the nation itself tha people acting in a group can ac complish things which no indi vidual acting alone could evei hope to bring about.
 Here is an example: Tn the cot ton textile code and in othe agreements already signed chil' labor has been abolished. Ihn f makes me personally happier tha'

 The neighborhood was thrown into confusion by the explosion. Shattered glass from broken win- dows and ripping lumber reused neighbors who rushed to the scene zines arrived in response to a still alarm.
 Chief Daniel J. Carson of the emergency squad said the explosion undoubtedly was caused by small cork that became lodged at the point where the coil joins the boiler. The cork evidently blocked up the passage for the fumes and a 01mpression, followed by ex- plosfon, resulted.
 Mr and Mrs Patrick Keegan who occupied the first floor, directly over the basement where the still was located fortunately had left their, apartment about three-quar- tern of an hour before the ex- ploaion.
 lSrs Keegan had gone to her place of employment in the Water bury Buckle Co and her husband, unemployed, went out to search for 8 job. Their four rooms were

 In the quarters of the Stulpinis family on the second floor, the emergency squad found q quantity of gallon jugs and bottles with about four quarts of "shine". The pantry shelves were lined three deep with bottles. The clock on the kitchen mantle was still going an hour after the explosion. The damage to the Stulpinis living quarters was slight compared to the Keegan apartment underneath.

Individual Credit Aided

The problem of the credit of the individual was made more difficult because of another fact. The dol- lar was a different dollar from tho one with which the average debt had been incurred. For this reason large numbers of people were &C., tually losing possession of and title to their farms and homes. All of you know the financial steps which have been taken to correct this in. equality. In addition the home loan act, the farm loan act and the bankruptcy act were passed.
 It was a vital necessity to restore purchasing power by reducing the debt interest charges upon our people, but while we were helping people save their credit 1t was at the same time absolutely essential to do something about the physi- cal needs of hundreds of thousands who were in dire straits at that very moment.
 Municipal and state aid were be- ing stretched to the limit. We ap- propriated $500,000,000 to supple ment their efforts and in addition. as you know. we have put 3O0,OO0 young Ileu lutV PIaSSASdA ohN oSS- full work in our forests and to pre- vent flood and soil erosion. The wages they earn are going in great CT part to the support of the near ly one million people who consti- tute their families.
 Public Works Program Explained
 Tn this same classification we can properly place the great pub- lie works program running to a total of over three billion dollars to be used for highway and ships and flood prevention and inland navigation and thousands of self sustaining state and municipal im- provements.
 Two points should be made clear in the alloting and administration of these projects-first, we are us- ing the utmost care to choose labor creating quick acting, useful prof. ects, avoiding the smell of the pork barrel, and, secondly, we are hop ing that at least half of the money will come back to the government from projects which will pay for themselves over period of years.

Washington April 14.-(R-Secre-
tary Frances Perkins, who for several
weeks has been working on an en-
ployment program for President
Roosevelt, said Friday 1t Is possible
to start a two or three billion dollar
public works program within four or
five months.
The activities that Miss Perkins
outlined at her press conference COW
cred the wide range Of federal, state,
county and city projects which she
declared as mot Of the monumental
type"
Much federal, state and local leg
islation and authorization would be
necessary to put it under way.
She listed water works, grade
crossing elimination, and road build
ing, at the head Of the possibilities,
but also stressed slum clearance and
the building of low-cost homes.
"The important thing" she said,
lis to distribute the work to places
where there are pools Of unemploy-
ment.
Federal public works, many Of
them In sparsely settled places. do not
drain the unemployment pools"
Low-cost housing, Miss Perkins
said, had always proven not only q
self-liquidating but q paying propo-
sition.

Of Akron Inquiry
Finished by Board

Of inquiry that, although the weather
was bad when the J-3 took off on
her disastrous rescue mission, he be-
lieved she could be operated safely.
Named Interested Party
Before he testified. Kenworthy, ct

story Of the Akron to that of the ILL.,
fated J-3.
A similar request was granted Lieu

in connection with the Akron inves-
tigation. It gives them the right to
question witnesses and places them In
a position somewhat similar to that
Of defendants in q civil action.
Kenworthy told the court that
when the first meager reports Of the
loss Of the Akron came into the situ-
alton, weather and winds were unfa-
vorable for taking the J-3 out and
he refused to allow her to 60.
Later, however, conditions improved

FEED SUPPLIES CUT
BY LENGTHY WINTER
Third Of stockmen Expected to
Be Short Before Grass
Becomes Plentiful

The long winter Just ending made
heavy threads on hay and feed sup
plies on North Dakota farms, accord
ing to Ben Kienholz, federal agricul-
tural statistician at Fargo.
What appeared last fall to be a big
carry-over Of hay has been reduced
to bare requirements, he said. Thir-
ty-two per cent of stockmen are ex-
pected to be short Of hay before new
grass becomes plentiful.
March weather was generally 70.
vorable to livestock, mean tempera-
ture being above average. Precipita-
ton was below normal, however.
Condition Of cattle on April I was
reported to be about normal. while
ewes are in better flesh than usual.
The general opinion Of reporters
throughout the state was that the
calf and lamb crop this year will be
as large or larger than q year ago.
Ranges improved slightly last
month and animals are securing
about 80 per cent Of their feed re-
quirements by grazing. Ample mois-
ture Is present for good grass growth
as soon as weather permits.
