He said that the old econ
omy of tooth and claw is
gone; that all who read the
times Alright know this coun.
try has seen the last of the ole
order.
Speaking in the heart of progress
sive movement, Mr.. Roosevelt defieC
his political and economic oppo-
nents. He counselled them to look
in the minds of the average man
and woman for confidence in the
future.
AS Mr.. Roosevelt spoke to some
10000 persons damned together be-
fore him news wires from Washing
ton flashed to the press the latest
New Deal move; silver is national
lied at 5001 cents an ounce.
Concluding his speech shortly
after 10 a. m. indianapolis time)
the presidential party left Bayside
Park on the last lap of a journey
which Skirted the Atlantic coast
half-spanned the Pacific and led
finally through the drought-tortured
farm lands at home.
Observers counted today'S adj
dress a political success. Presi-
Dental attaches we're content. The

Wisconsin Sounding Board"
The schedule is almost completed;
Chicago briefly late today and to-
morrow, Washington.
Politicians read strategy into the
Presidents careful avoidance in
Green Bay of any mention of the
silver naturalization which was
announced in Washington as he
spoke.
1t appeared to be Mr.. Roosevelt's
purpose to make Wisconsin the
sounding board for an appeal to the
common man to ignore the warn
ings of calamity heard in the mid
west as the national campaign
moves into high.
Announcement of silver nationali-
cation here would have buried under
layers of words the promise Mr.
Roosevelt brought of more of every
thing for everybody.
Mr.. Roosevelt def1ed those who
complain that the nation lacks
confidence. He bluntly warned that
the New Deal is here to stay and
will move forward, not retreat.
La Toilette Is Praised
There is no lack of confidence,
the President said, ION the part OF
those business men, farmers and
workers who clearly read the signs
Of the times. Sound economic i'm
provement comes from improved
conditions of the whole population
and not the small fraction thereof
Those VINO measure confidence in
this country in the future must
look first to the average citizen"
Honest business is secure, Mr.
Roosevelt assured his audience in de-
claring that the methods employed
in seeking social justice would not
rob Peter to pay Paul"
His words-especially his unex-
pected direct reference in support
of Senator Bob La Toilette anc
Ryan Duffy-brought cheers from
the crowd. His voice trembled with
emotion as he bore down on the
purposes and detectives of the New
Deal.
His face was sparkling with en-
thusiaSm as he stood on a high
flag-draped platform under a big
shade tree and carried into the
stronghold of progressiveism, thai
last message before his return tc
the national capitol.
