might. if desired, keep certain mill
tary and naval ba.xS after inde-
pendence.
Where other inperfectionS exist
in the independence bill, they may
be corrected fairly after proper
hearing, the President suggested to
congress. Mr.. Roosevelt insisted that
adequate time be permitted for nee
eSsary political and economic ad-
justments in comforting independ-
ence upon the islands and that TO do
otherwise would be little short Of
a denial of independence itself"
He opposed any change in the
economic provisions OF the inde-
pendence bill. The message empha-
sized that the United States gov
ernment had for many years been
committed to ultimate Philippine
independence.
First, he pointed out in his mes
sage to congress, world trade has
declined with startling rapidity and
1.-The drop in the foreign trade of
the United States has been even
sharper
"Our exports in 1888 were put at
SO per cent of the 1929 volume he
pointed out, land 80 per cent of the
1929 value.
This has meant idle hands, still
machines, ships tied to their docks
despairing farm households and
hungry industrial families,' Mr
Roosevelt continued. cit has made
infinitely more difficult the PLAN
ming for economic readjustment in
which the government is now en-
gagged.
The President said he believed
"every nation must at all times be
in a position quickly to adjust its
taxes and tariffs to meet sudden
changes and avoid severe fluctua-
tions in both its export and its i'm
ports.''
He held that full domestic recov-
cry depends in part upon a revived
and strengthened international
trade.
And Mr.. Roosevelt contended also
that American exports cannot be
permanently increased without a
corresponding increase in imports. -
The President next laid emphasis
on the point that other govern
ments "to an ever increasing eX-
tent are capturing exports mar
kets through reciprocal trade agree
mentS.
