BANS POLITICS
FROM RELIEF
Roosevelt Hammers Home
Viewpoint in Address
to Leaders.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. 49, In
fighting words, President Roosevelt
has made it clear that his gigantic
recovery organization is for the pur-
pose Of recovery only and not pol
itics.
His viewpoint was hammered
home in a blunt address to forty
eight state directors of the National
Emergency Council and was regard
ed today as a reply to critics who
saw in the governments widespread
activities the framework of a pow
erful Democratic machine.
The directors, of all shades Of
political opinion, stood silently in
ranks in the executive office of the
White House as Mr.. Roosevelt ex-
pounded the objective of his admin
istration. He capped his remarks
with a warning that the directors
must be hard boiled" at the ex-
pense of the most powerful political
bosses in the land.
Decrying any effort that might
turn relief work to political account,
self -aggrandizement, authority or
special credit, the President OBJ
served:
This work has nothing to do with
partisan politics, nothing at all. A
great many of you are Republicans,
a good many are Democrats, quite
a number do not belong regularly to
one party or the other. We are
not in the least bit interested in the
partisan side of this picture.
I'VE do want you to be absolutely
hrad-boiled if you find any local
person within your own states who
is trying to get political advantage
out of the relief of human needs
and you will have the backing of
this administration 100 per cent,
even if you hit the biggest political
boss in the United States on the
head, in carrying out this general
program"
