BROOKLYN EVEN
ANAZES CASEY
STENCIL

NEW YORK. April 25.-The
Brooklyn Dodgers are going so
we'll that even Casey Stengel. whom
nothing surprises, is amazed.
"Well. l know we had a good
club, but l didn't think it was
as good as it has appeared to
be so far" Stengel remarked,
somewhat cOnfusedly today while
discussing his teams 4-tO-1 vic
tory over the Phillies yesterday.
Down South, 1 called the
club an if team" Casey went
on. you know, we'll win if
this happens, or if that works
out. Up to now the ifs have
all been swell. If they keep on
working out you can order your
world series ticket from Brook
lyn right away"
Yesterdays conquest Of the
Philies was the Dodgers sixth
victory in eight games. They are
leading the National League by
a comfortable margin.
Van Mungo, star highlander,
and Linus Frey, Pony shortstop,
divided honors in the Brooklyn
victory. Mungo held the foe to
four hits and famed nine, while
Frey thumped out a home run
with one man on base. Dolph
Camilli, sensational Philly first
baseman, who hit six homers in
his first six games, was held hit
less.
Giants Score
Across the river at the Polo
Grounds, the New York Giants
won their second straight from
the Boston Braves, who we're
minus the services of the eminent
Mr.. George Herman Ruth, except
for a brief and sorry interval in
the eighth inning. The score
was 3 to /. Because of a cold.
Ruth did not start in the Boston
lineup. He appeared as pinch
hitter in the eighth for Flint
Rhem and struck out ingloriously.
Lon Warneke got credit for his
third victory of the season as a
result of the Chicago Cubs ten.
inning defeat of the st. Louis
Cardinals, 7-6. The Cubs triumph
was scored at the expense of the
one and only Dizzy Dean, who
went to the relief of Bud Thinning
in the eighth. Dean yielded three
hits in the fateful tenth.
Cy Blanton, whose recent one.
hit performance against the Car
dinals still has the National
League gasping. was the winning
pitcher in the Pittsburgh Pirates
5 to 2 victory over the Reds at
Cincinnati. Blanton held the Reds
to six hits and famed eleven.
Tigers Lose Again
The American League champion
Detroit Tigers haven't as yet
found their winning ways. They
suffered their fourth defeat in
five games at the hands of the
White Sox in Chicago yesterday,
10 to 4. The Sox scored seven
runs in the last two innings with
an attack that included home
runs by Zeke Bonura, AL Sim
mons and Vernon Washington.
Fay Thomas, pitcher, handed
the Cleveland Indians a 3-to-2

TEXT OF PRESIDENT ROOSEVELTS CHICAGO FARM

and from all other kinds Of "con-
fidence games: that is justice.
Rewards for Labor
The Nation applauds the efforts
of government to obtain and to
maintain fair rewards for labor,
whether it be the labor Of the
farmer or the labor of the factory
worker or the labor Of the white
collar man: that. is justice.
The Nation applauds efforts,
through the agencies of govern
ment, to give a greater social Sc
Curity to the aged and to the un-
employed, to improve health, and
to create better opportunities for
our young people: that too, is
justice.
In this quest for justice we have
made progress. 1t is a lasting
progress because the people of the
Nation have learned more about
effective cooperation in the past
two and half years than in the
previous Is years.
We understand more than ever
before what that term "the seam
less web" means. We seek to bal
ance agriculture and we have
made great strides. But in balan-
cling agriculture we know it must
be in balance not alone with it.
self, but with industry and busi-
ness as well-that the producing
public must give consideration to
the consuming public.
Year by year as we go on many
details, many problems will need
to be analyzed and solved. Agri-
culture and industry and business
are in overwhelming majorities
cooperating for common justice
as never before.
A Better World
In these present days we have
seen and are seeing, not a re.birth
Of material prosperity alone: of
greater significance to our ma
tional future is that spiritual re-
awakening, that deeper under
standing that has come to our
land. We who strive to dispel the
bitterness and the littleneSs of the
The Washington times., 1935-12-09

On tn, other side of the picture
we believe, and most unbiased men
believe, that the general increase
in our trade with Canada, includ-
ing the exports of our factories
will so add to the purchasing
power of hundreds Of thousands
Of wage earners that they will be
able to spend far more than they
do today for the products Of our
own farms, our own forests and
our own fisheries.
Must Look Ahead
Greater trade is merely another
word for more production and
more employment. The proof OF
this particular pudding is in the
eating; the best way to judge the
new accord is to observe how 1t
works out. Analyze and remember
the source and the motives of the
objections. Remember the old
saying, 1T all depends on whose
baby has the measles"
: But the success that has at
tended and is attending our eff.
forts to stem the depression and
set the tide running the other
way cannot blind us to the neces.
Sity Of looking ahead to the
permanent measures which are
necessary to a more stable eco
nomic life. We are regaining a
more fair balance among the
groups that constitute the Nation
and we must look to the factors
that will make that balance
stable.
The thing we all are seeking is
justice in the common sense in
depreciation of that word-the in
depreciation that means do unto
your neighbor as you would be
done by" That Interpretation
means justice against exploitation
on the part of those who do not
care much for the lives, the hap.
piness and the prosperity of their
neighbors.

ers Is several billion dollars higher
than in 1882, and think you will
agree with me that bargain prices
for food in 1882 were little con-
ISOLATION to people in cities with no
income whatsoever.
Though food prices in the cities
are not on the average as high as
they were, for example in 1929, yet
they are in many cases too high.
1t is difficult to explain why in
many cases if the farmer gets an
increase for his food crop over
what he got three years ago, the
consumer in the city has to pay
two and three and four times the
amount of that increase.
Lifting prices on the farm up
to the level where the farmer and
his family can live is opposed
chiefly by the few who profited
heavily from the depression.
Profiteer Opposition
1t is they and their henchmen
who are doing their best to foment
city people against the farmers
and the farm program. It is that
type Of political profiteer who
seeks to discredit the vote in favor
of a continued corn.hog program
by comparing your desire for
fair price for the farmer to the
appetite of hogs for corn.
Yet 1 know that the great
masses Of city people are fair
minded. They, like yourselves, suf-
fered deeply from the depression,
and I believe with all my heart
that millions of these city people,
struggling back towards better
days, resent the attempts Of politi.
cal advantage7seekers and profit
eers to heap ridicule upon the re-
covery efforts that all Of us are
making.
Some of the same type of indi.
viduals and groups are also trying
to stir up farmers against other
phases of the broad recovery pro-
gram. Dispensers of diScord are
saying that farmers have been
victimized by the new reciprocal
trade agreement with Canada, and
are painting pictures of a great
flood of imports of farm products
rushing across the border. Just as
I am confident that the great
masses of city people are fair
minded, so I am sure that the
great majority of American farm
ers will be fair in their judgment
of the new trade agreement.
U. S. the BenefactOr
If the calamity howlerS should
happen to be right, you have every
assurance that Canada and the
United States will join in correct
ing inequalities, but I do not be-
lieve for a single moment that
the calamity howlerS are right.
Agriculture, far from being cru.
Gifted by this agreement, as some
have told you, actually gains from
it. We export more agricultural
products to Canada than we have
imported from her.
We shall continue to do so, for
the very simple reason that the
United States, with its larger area
of agricultural land, its more va
ried climate and its vastly greater
population. produces far more Of
most agricultural products, includ-
ing animal products, vegetables
and fruits, than does Canada. In
the case Of the few reductions
that have been made, quota limi-
tations are set on the amount
that may be brought in at the
lower rates.
The Washington times., 1935-12-09

fallen in relation to other prices
were based upon the figures of
1909 to 1914.
This was a fairly satisfactory
way Of measuring our efforts.
Those five years preceding the
beginning of the World War were
years Of fair prosperity in this
country. They were the last
years before the widespread dis
turhance caused by the World
War took place in our economic
life. And measured by the fig.
ures built upon this standard, the
relative purchasing power of the
farmer had fallen to less than
SO per cent OF normal in early
1888.
I promised to do what I could
to remedy this, and without bur.
dening you with unnecessary fig.
ures, let the record say that a
relative purchasing power Of be-
low so per cent has now moved
up today to better than 80 per
cent. AS have pointed out be-
fore, this rise in farm prices has
meant a very substantial improve
ment in the farm income of the
United States. The best available
figures show that l. has increased
nearly $3,OOO,00O, 900 in the past
two and one-half years.
Effect Spreads Out
This buying power has been
felt in many lines Of business:
outstanding among these is the
farm equipment industry in
which employment jumped from
27 per cent Of the average in
October, 1882, to 116 per cent in
October, 1885. In the motor car
industry, which has found some
of it's best markets on farms
and in small towns over the same
three years span employment has
increased from A. per cent to
los per cent.
These simple figures show how
industrial employment in the
cities has been benefited by the
Improvement in the farmers
condition.
Increasing pay rolls in the farm
equipment and automobile indus.
tries in turn are stimulating other
lines. Only a few days ago I
noted an item in the papers
which I thought very significant.
It told of increased activity in
the textile mills. One reason,
said the newspaper account, was
the demand for textiles in the
manufacture of automobiles.
There you have the complete
chain. The cotton growing South,
with more money to spend, buys
new automobiles. The automo-
bile makers buy more cotton
goods from manufacturers in the
Northeast and these manufactur-
ers in turn 80 into the market
for more cotton. Goods are NOV
ing again, and as goods are NOV
ing, so is money moving once
more, and as it flows. millions Of
farm and city families are get
ting a bigger share Of the ma
tional income.
Rise Goes Too Far
think it is safe to say that
although prices for farm products
show many increases over depreS-
sion lows, the farm program in
stead of burdening consumers as
a group has actually given them
net benefits. There are individuals
whose incomes have not risen in
proportion to the rise in certain
food prices; but at the same time

ishness, we are working toward
the destruction of sectionalism, of
class antagonism and of malice.
We who strive for cooperation
among all parts of our great
The Washington times., 1935-12-09

How can it be healthy for a coun-
try to have the price of crops
vary 800, 500 and TOO per cent,
all in less than a generation?
If you invest your savings or
your capital in what you consider
a wholly safe investment, which
will conserve your principal so
that you will still have that
principal intact after 10 years or
20 years or 30 years, you are
naturally aghaSt if the value Of
that investment drops so per cent.
Equally, when you make the
investment you do not expect the
principal suddenly to increase so
per cent in value.
And yet we have shrugged our
shoulders when we have seen COT
ton run up and down the scale
between % cents and Az cents,
wheat run down and up the scale
between $1.50 and 80 centS-corn,
hogs, cattle, potatoes, rye, peaches
all of them fluctuating from
month to month and from year
to year in mad gyrations, which,
of necessity, have left the growers
of them spectators against their
will.
The measures to which we
turned to stop the decline and
rout of American agriculture orig
mated in the aspirations of the
farmers themselves expressed
through the several farm organ
izationS.
I turned to these organizations
and took their counsel and sought
to help them to get these purposes
embodied in the law of the land.
Brought to Stop
What you wanted and what you
and I have endeavored to achieve
was to put an end to the deStruc-
tive forces that were threatening
American agriculture. We sought
to stop the rule of tooth and claw
that threw farmers into bank
ruptcy or turned them virtually
into serfs, forced them to let their
buildings, fences and machinery
deteriorate, made them rob their
soil of its God-given fertility, and
deprived their sons and daughters
of a decent opportunity on the
farm. To those days, trust, the
organized power of the nation has
put an end forever.
1 say the organized power of
the nation" advisedly, because you
and I as Americans who still be-
lieve in our republican form of
constitutional government know,
as simple fact, that 48 separate
sovereign states, acting each one
as a separate unit, never were able
and never will be able to legislate
or to administer individual laws
adequately to balance the agri-
cultural life Of a nation so greatly
dependent on nationally grown
crops Of many kinds.
Amazing Gain
AS a first step organized agri.
culture pointed out that it was
necessary to bring agriculture
into a fair degree of equality
with other parts of our economic
life. For so long as agriculture
remained a dead weight on eco
nomic life, sooner or later the
entire structure would crash. We
used for temporary guidance the
idea of parity between farm
prices and industrial prices. AS
you know, the figures that we
used to determine the degree to

population in every part of the
Nation, we intend to win through
to a better day. We strive for
America, and if we shall succeed,
as by Gods help we will, America
will point the way towards bet
ter world.
