Then the German influence
piles in thick and fast on the royal
family tree in England:
Eldest daughter of this Eliza

German, Ernest August, of Han

known as George I, who spoke
German. He married a German
lady from Zell; their son was
George II. He spoke little Eng

of Wales, died before his father,
but had married a German girl
from Saxe-Gotha; their son be-
came George III who irritated the
American colonies into a state of
revolution and started them on
their way to become the United
States of America.
Who's English Now?
George III married another Ger,
man girl, Charlotte of Mecklem-
burg-Strelitz; and their eldest son
was George w, who had no chill
dren; so the second son of George
III, known as King William ",
was crowned and his wife was a
German girl from Saxe-Coburg,
and they had no children.
Then comes in the exciting story
of the birth of the little girl who
was to become Queen Victoria.

attempted to start a general dis
cuSSion with the question:
"DOeS not this crisis express
q deep crisis In our economic
syStem?"
Here the speaker broke in
sharply:
81 have not allowed questions
in one direction and l will not
allow them in another"
Ernest Thurtle, Laborite had
this to say:
MAY 1 ask whether the point
at issue between parliament and
government (cries Of nOD is the
question of a mOrganatic mar
riage and whether opinion of
the house will be aScertained
upon that particular pOint?"
Frederick Bellenger, Laborite,
shot this question at the premier:
May 1 ask whether in view
of the serious diSlOcatiOn caused
on industry and trade in this
country, the premier will en-
deaver to obtain an early re-
pIy?"
BALDWIN CHEERED
To all these questions there was
no reply, and Attlee ended the
tension with the speakers assist
ance by putting routine question
relating to the governments in
tentions and business for the COM
ing week.
The members, who had stood
three deep in every nook and
Granny of the house, trooped out
to the Hobbies on a motion for
suspension of the II o'clock closing
rule for transaction of government
business.
Baldwin was accorded an en-
thusiaStic reception as he quit the
chamber, many members standing
to cheer him.
Churchill Opposed
The session was remarkable for
the support accorded the premier
and the opposition voiced against
Churchill. Every time the latter
reached a critical point in his dis
cuSSionS, a roar Of protest rose
from the government benches, and
Churchill had difficulty in con-
tinuing at all.
Lambert'S question crediting the
premier with parliamentary appro-
baton was received with tremen-
dous cheering from all parts Of
the house.
The government retreat was
seen by observers as caused by a
rising of popular feeling for fair
play"

BALTIMORE, october 16.-Walter
P. Chrysler and IS other persons,
many of them prominent in Balti-
more or on the Eastern Shore, were
summoned yesterday to come into
Federal Court on alleged game law
violations.
Chrsyler, who has an estate on the
Eastern Shore, was charged with
hunting without having Federal
stamp on his license, with shooting
over baited areas and with using
q repeating shotgun whose magazine
was not plugged to reduce 1t capacity.
The violations alleged against him
occurred on December 6, 1885.
The charges were based on an in
vestigation made by Grin d. Steele,
Federal game agent. All those
summoned yesterday were directed to
appear in court on October ~ to
answer to the charges. The VIOLA
tions carry a maximum penalty Of
$500 fine or six months in Jail, but
the maximum Is seldom asked by the
Federal district attorney.
The others named included:
J. Edward johnson, Kent County,
hunting over baited area with live
decoys.

year. Certain steps looking toward
that end have been taken, but they
are not sufficient. 1t is my belief
that the manufacturers Of automo-
biles and the manufacturers Of
many other necessary commodities
must, by planning, do far more
than they have done to date to in
crease the yearly earnings of those
who work for them.
Social and Economic
Security Is Issue Of Campaign.
Your administration has that
kind of objective in mind. 1t is my
belief that the people Of Detroit,
like the people of the rest of the
country, are going to ask on No
vember that the present type Of
government continue rather than
the type of government which in
its heart still believes In the policy
o. "laissez faire" and the kind Of
individualism which up to only
three and a half years ago, frankly,
put dollars above human rights.
When the smoke and dust of this
political campaign clears away on
the night of November 3. history
will record that the outstanding
issue Of the campaign was this
shall the social and economic Sc
curity and betterment of the masses
of the American people be main
tanned and strengthened or not? I
am not afraid Of the verdict. 1t
will be yes.

senger cars, trucks and tractors.
In all other fields Of production
prices and values also rose-miners
went back to work-Eastern fac
tories opened their closed doors.
The dollars that we spent In re-
lief. in work relief, in c. G. c.
camps, in drought relief, in cattle
and hog buying and processing,
each of them went to work. They
were spent in the shops Of the city
and in the stores Of the small
towns and villages. They were
spent again by the retailers who
bought from wholesalers. They
were spent again by wholesalers
who bought from manufacturers
and professors. They were spent
again in wages to those who worked
and in purchases from those who
produced the raw materials on the
farms. And once again they were
spent in the stores of the cities and
the shops of the small town viii
lagos. You know how many OF
these dollars have finally come to
the city of Detroit in the purchase
of automobiles.
Literally the music went round
and round and round and lot
of it came out right here in
Detroit.
Efforts Must Go to Stop
Recurrence Of Catastrophe.
All I need to repeat is the state
ment known to most of you here
that 1886 promises to be the Sec
ond largest year of automobile pro-
duction in our history-more than
three and q half times as big as
1t was in 1882.
Detroit today is very different
city from what it was three years
ago. and while the wheels of in
dustry turn fast and unemployment
Is very greatly decreased, yet there
are many problems not yet solved.
I do not accept the conclusion Of
many Republican leaders that
major depressions are inevitable in
modern lie. II Is not enough LnaC
we have ended the days in 1882
when workers in this city received
for their labor as low as IS or Sc
for two weeks work. 1t is not
enough that we have saved many
homes and put thousands OF peo-
pie to work. I believe that it Is
the duty of government to bend
every effort to prevent another
major catastrophe such as that
which hit this country as result
of the Republican leadership which
ran the Government from 1921
to 1898.
There are q thousand and one
things still to be done. 1t has
been suggested that the Govern
ment's agricultural program is a
hit or miss" affair not worthy Of
support because, like an automo-
bile, new model is brought out
every year. I have been glad to
accept that Simile. I have told the

DETROIT, October 16.-The tex
of President Roosevelts address her
1ast night follows:
I am standing at the spot in
front of the city hall, to which
during the four terrible years, from
1929 to 1888, thousands OF unem-
ployed men and women of Detroit
came to present problems Of hui
man existence to q great mayor,
Frank Murphy.
1 am glad that he is standing
beside me today. His splendid rec
ord. first as Governor General OF
the Philippines and later as High
Commissioner of the United states
to the commonwealth of the Phil
ippines, stands out as one OF the
most successful administrations IN
our history. The whole country IS
proud of Frank Murphy and proud
of what he has done.
I knew something Of the prob
lens of Detroit in the depression
years, not only from Frank Muir
ply. but also from my brother-in-
law, who was his city controller.
We all knew that during those
years the Government Of this city
pared its operating expenses to the
bone, using every penny 1t coulo
scrape together for the relief OF
thousands of men and women who
were literally on the verge of star
vation. When money had to be
raised the mayor and controller
would go to private bankers IN New
York. where they were compelled
10 nav very high interest rates for
further loans.
Federal Action Saved
Dav When Loans Were Stopped.
BY the Spring Of 1888 the city
could borrow no more from private
sources and the government OF the
State of Michigan was unable TO
render any substantial help.
recite these facts because while
the problem of human relief IN De-
troit was one of the most dimcult
in the Nation, yet there were thou-
sands of other municipalities faced
with the same kind of crisis.
Action - immediate action - py
the new Federal Government IN
Washington, it is now admitted oy
all but the most blind partlsans,
was what saved the day. 1t was
the only thing left which could
save the day.
Relief and work relief through
the use of Federal funds saved
American humanity, and as the
months went by it saved also the
solvency of cities and States III
every part of the Nation.
Following the arresting OF the
immediate crisis, our next step was
to restore the purchasing power OF
the people themselves. I need not
recite to you the many steps we
took. You are as familiar with
them as I am. In great part you
are glad today, am sure, that we
took these steps.
Detroit's Fate Linked
With Peoples Power to Buy.
In the restoration Of purchasing
power there is one element often
overlooked by those who dwell in
great industrial cities-the build
ing up of the prices which farmers
obtain for their farm products.
A South compelled to sell its cot
ton for cents pound, a Middle
West compelled to sell its corn for
10 or IS cents bushel, its hogs for
2 or 3 cents a pound. its wheat for
80 cents a bushel, could buy no
automobiles made in Detroit. But
a South with 10 or II cent cotton,
a Middle West with 75-cent corn.

Industry Still Needs
To Help Lot Of Employees.
I have suggested that the auto
mobile industry and every other
industry still need great improve
ments in their relationship to their
employees. And I will illustrate the
point by a story: In the Spring
OF 1884 there came to Washington
representatives of the automobile
workers-most Of them young men
without much experience in organ
tied labor. One Of them, former
Marine who had served through
battle after battle in France, told
me he was machinist and that
his pay was $1.25 an hour or $40
q day. I told him thought that
was q pretty good wage scale, and
his reply was this: "Yes, Mr.. Presi-
dent, it Is a good hourly rate and a
good daily rate, but last year I
worked only 68 days" In other
words the total income of himself.
his wife and his children was $3.50
for a year. On this yearly pay
total he had lost the home on
which he had paid down hundreds
of dollars. He and his family were
seeking to exist on $3.50 a year.
AS result of that meeting and
OF subsequent meetings with COM
pany officials, I stressed the need Of
spreading the work more evenly
through the year and Of working
toward raising the yearly pay en-
