to those projects which viii be self

Is a reasonable expectation that
the government will get its money
back at some future time.
Enter No Competition
(5) The projects undertaken
should be selected and planned so
as to compete as little as possible
with private enterprises. This sug-
gests that If 1t were not for the
necessity OF giving useful work to
the unemployed now on relief,
these projects In most instances
would not now be undertaken.
90 The planning Of projects
would seek to assure work during
the coming fiscal year to the indi-
vidualS now on relief, or until such
time as private employment Is a
valuable. In order to make adjust
ment TO increasing private employ
ment, work should be planned with
a view TO tapering 1t off In proper
ton TO the speed with which the
emergency workers are offered posi-
tons with private employers.
CD Effort should be made TO
locate projects where they will
serve the greatest unemployment
needs as shown by present relief
rolls, and the broad program Of the
national resources board should be
freely used for guidance in selec-
ton. Our ultimate objective being
the enrichment Of human lives, the
government has the primary duty
TO use its emergency expenditures as
much a. possible TO serve those who
cannot secure the advantages OF
private capital.
Ever since the adjournment OF
the 73rd congress. the administra-
ton has been studying from every
angle the possibility and the practi-
cability of new forms of employ
ment. AS a result Of these studies !
have arrived at certain very def
mite convictions as to the amount
Of money that will be necessary for
the sort Of public projects that I
have described. I shall submit these
figures in my budget message. I as
sure you now they will be within

the sound credit Of the govern
ment.
This work will cover a wide field
including clearance Of sums, which
for adequate reasons can not be un-
dertaken by private capital; In rur-
al housing Of several kinds, where,
again. private capital Is unable To
function; In rural identification: In
the reforestation of the great water
beds OF the nation; in an intensified
program to prevent soil erosion and
to reclaim blighted areas; In improv-
ing existing road systems and In
constructing national highways de-
signed to handle modern traffic; In
the elimination Of grade crossings;
In the extension and enlargement
Of the successful work OF the Civ
ilian Conservation Corps: in non.
federal work, mostly self ~liquidatine
and highly useful to local divisions
Of government; and on many others
which the nation needs and can not
afford to neglect.
Is Permanent Policy
This Is the method which I pro-
pose to you in order that we may
better meet this present day prob.
lem OF unemployment. It's greatest
advantage Is that 1t fits logically
and usefully into the long range
permanent policy Of providing the
three types Of security which con-
stitute as a whole an American plan
for the American people.
I shall consult with you from
time to time concerning other meas
ures Of national Importance. Among
the subjects that lie Immediately
before us are the consolidation OF
federal regulatory administration
over all forms Of transportation, the
renewal and Qualification Of the
general purposes OF the Nationa.
Industrial Recovery Act, the streng-
thening of our facilities for the pre-
vention, detection and treatment OF
crime and criminals. the restora-

our taxation forms and methods.
We have already begun to feel
the bracing effect upon u economic
system OF a restored agriculture. The
hundreds Of millions Of additional
income that farmers are receiving
Is finding its way into the channels
Of trade. The farmers share Of the
national income is slowly rising. The
economic facts justify the wide
spread opinion Of those engaged in
agriculture that our provision for
maintaining a balanced production
gave at this time the most adequate
remedy for an old and vexing
problem. For the present and es-
pecially in view OF abnormal world
conditions. agricultural adjustment
with certain necessary improvements
in methods should continue.
Public Spirit Praised
1t seems appropriate to call at
tention at this time to the fine
spirit shown during the past year
by our public servants. I ian not
praise too highly the cheerful work
OF the civil service employees, and
those temporarily working for the
government. AS for those thousands
in our various public agencies spread
throughout the country who. with
out compensation, agreed to take
over heavy responsibilities in con-
nection with our various loan agen-
cies and particularly in direct relief
work, I can not say too much. I
do not think any country could
show a higher average Of cheerful
and even enthusiastic teamwork
than has been shown by these men
and women.
I can not with candor tell you
that general international rela-
tionships outside our borders are
improved. On the surface OF things
many old j~ealousies are reSurrect-
ed, old passions aroused, new striv-
ings for armament and power. in
more than one land, rear their ugly
heads. I hope that calm council
and constructive leadership will
provide the steadying influence and
the time necessary for the coming
Of new and more practical forms OF
representative government through
out the world wherein privilege win

occupy a lesser place and welfare q
greater.
I believe. however, that our own
peaceful and neighborly attitude
towards other nations Is coming To
be understood and appreciated. The
maintenance Of international peace
is q matter In which we z deep
ly and unselflshly concerned. Evi-
dence of III persistent and undeni-
able desire to prevent armed con-
flict has recently been more than
once afforded.
Attacks Armaments
There is no ground for apprehen-
sion that Dur relations with any ma
ton will be otherwise than peace
full. Nor IS there ground for doubt
that the people of most nations seek
relief from the threat and burden
attaching to the false theory that
extravagant armament a not DO
reduced and limited by international
accord.
The ledger of the past year shows
many more gains than losses. Let
us not forget that. in addition to
saving millions from utter destitu-
ton, child labor has been for the
moment outlawed, thousands or
homes saved TO their owners ana
most important of all. the morale
Of the nation has been restored.
Viewing the year 1884 as q whole,
you and I can agree that we have
a generous measure Of reasons for
giving thanks.
1t is not empty optimism that
moves me to a strong hope In the
coming year. We can, II we WILL
make 1885 a genuine period Of good
feeling. sustained by q sense OF purN
poseful progress. Beyond the mas
terial recovery, I sense q spiritual.
recovery as well. The people Of
America are turning as never before
to these permanent values that are
not limited to the physical detectives
Of life. There IN growing signs OF
this on every hand. In the face OF
these spiritual impulses we IN SEN

The federal government Is the only
governmental agency with sufficient
power and credit to meet this Situa-
ton. We have assumed this task and
we shall not shrink from 1t In the
future. It Is a duty dictated by every
intelligent consideration Of nation
al policy to ask you to make it pos
sible for the United States to give
employment to all of these three
and one half million employable
people now on relief. pending their
absorption in a rising tide Of pri-
vate employment.
To Unite Public Works
1t is my thought that with the
exception Of certain Of the normal
public building operations Of the
government. all emergency public
works shall be united in a single
new and greatly enlarged plan.
With the establishment OF this
new system we can persuade the
federal emergency relief admins.

There are however. an additional
three and one half million employ

them the problem is different and
the responsibility Is different. This

which were not local but national.

We have, however. a clear man
date from the people, that Amer
leans must forswear that concep-
ton Of the acquisition OF wealth
which. through excessive profits,
creates undue private power over
private affairs and, to III misfor-
tune. over public affairs as well.
In building toward this end We do
not destroy ambition nor do We
seek to divide our wealth into equal
shares on stated occasions. We con-
tinue to recognize the greater abil-
ity OF some TO earn more than
others. But we do assert that the
ambition OF the individual to OBJ
tain for him and his a proper secur-
ity. a reasonable leisure. and a de-
cent living throughout life. Is an
ambition 10 be preferred to the ap-
petite Tor wealth and great power.
Security Comes First
7 recall to your attention my mes
sage TO the congress last June in
which I Said-"among our object
ives / place the security Of the men,
women and children Of the nation
first" That remains first and
continuing task and in a very real
sense every major legislative enact-
ment Of this congress should be a
component part Of II.
In defining immediate factors
which enter into our quest. I have
spoken TO the congress and the
people OF three great divisions:
!. The security Of livelihood
through the better use of the ma
tional resources Of the land in
which we live.
2. The security against the ma
jor hazards and viciSSitudeS Of life.
3. The security Of decent homes.
! am now ready to submit to con-
gress a broad program designed III
timately TO establish all three OF
these factors OF security-a program
which because of many lost years
will take many future years to full
fill.
A study or our national resources,
more comprehensive than any pre-
viously made. shows the vast
amount Of necessary and practicable
work which needs to be done for
the development and preservation
of our natural wealth for the enjoy
ment and advantages Of our people
in generations 10 come. The sound
use OF land and water Is far more
comprehensive than the mere plant
ing OF trees, building Of dams. dis
