There is no doubt in my mind wbat

Business Gains Cited
Mr. CulbertsOn cited the earnings
of many of the big Industries in
1882 and their earnings last year,
showing all of them had been tre-
mendOusly increased. Are we thrOt-
tling recovery or hampering prog
ress or helping recovery" he asked
after reviewing the business gains.
He said the Democratic administra-
tion has restored the farmers in
come, the securities market has in
creased, and. the President has stop
ped the sale of worthless securities.
His policies are constructive and
when recovery is eventually an ac-
cOmplished fact, he said. it will be
permanent as result of the wise
building of President Roosevelt.
Il beg for harmony i'm the ranks
of the Democrats of Delaware" Mr..
CulbertsOn said i'm closing. Ere
quently we are so exhausted with
internal strife that when election
time comes we are without the re-
quired strength to carry on the
fight to victory. With all the fervOT
at my command I plead with you to
abandon this faCtiOnalism. Groups
in our marty are so eager to obtain
their own ends that they frequently
sacrifice the whole party to attain
this Such attacks react against the
he st interests of the party and also
against the Roosevelt administra-
tiOn. Until we forget factions there |
can he no success for the party in .

He quoted words of President I

for a better America and thus point
the way toward a better world.
