criticize its policies without compre-
hending the reason for or the origin
Of those policies. Even today, self
righteous critics, some of them with
an ulterior purpose, insist that the
Department of the Interior cannot be
intrusted with any of the national re-
sources of America because Of the
national policy in the past and par
ticularly of the misdeeds of one or
two men.
After all, it was the Congress that
guided the policy of this department
and enacted the laws to which it must
conform" Ickes said.
From the point Of view of the
future" he added, Il can see nothing
more worth while that America could
do at this time than to charge a great
department of the Government with
responsibility for such development
and use of our natural resources as is
consistent with their preservation for
the benefit and continued use of fu-
ture generations. Not only should
there be such declaration of purpose,

tary of the Interior, Mr.. Ickes exer-
cised his authority as public works

I'VE have acted wisely, I believe"
President Roosevelt said, "in erecting
this new building at this time.
"Other factors in addition to the
problem Of relieving unemployment
Influenced our decision to erect this
building without further delay The

like other large families, has its own
serious housing problems. We have
grown over a long period Of years
until the Government buildings have
been taxed to capacity, and every
available square foot of space put to

to be equipped with escalators.

that is close to his heart.

major policy Of government that 1t
should be until some such action Is
taken.
I'VE have done quite lot Of wish
full thinking about conservation, but
so far active foes from without and
muddle- headed friends within the
ranks have formed an unnatural but
powerful opposition that has been Of
benefit only to the exploiter.
"Yet it is heartening that the SEN
timent to prevent further waste Is
growing and there is reason to hope
that before a great while the Con-
gress will respond to that sentiment
by setting up a department Of con-
servation and thus reverse the policy
Of exploitation that has existed here
tofore."
To President Roosevelt as an ad-
vocate of conservation, Mr.. Ickes
gave generous credit.
Where others have torn down,
Franklin D. Roosevelt has built up"
he said. Where others have closed
their eyes to reckless and oftentime
illegal exploitation, he has been alert

said Hartman was linked with the
case in January of this year, when a
100000 bond was found in his pos

When President Roosevelt concluded
his address today after laying the
corner stone at the new Interior De-

audience and with q side remark said:
II think 1t will interest you TO know
that the trowel am about to use Is the

in laying the corner stone Of the
Capitol in 1793."
With q smile, he held the trowel
aloft, and the audience gasped to see

President deftly dabbed bit Of cement

The Justice Department entered the

Federal agents surrounded further in

Hoover said it became evident dur

vestigation that Hartman controlled
the remaining securities. This became
obvious, the chief Oman declared,
after Hartman's arrest at New York.
Hoover did not indicate how agents
traced the bond recovered in the De-
grassi home to West Palm Beach,
nor what clues led to the arrest Of
Alexander in the National Capital.

Hoover's memorandum gave little
hint Of the troubles encountered in

had distributed 10000 circular letters
describing the stolen securities to all
law-enforcement agents throughout
the country.
First indications that the quarry
was In sight came in January Of this
year, the departments statement said,
when definite information reached
here that whoever controlled the Sc
curities was evidencing q desire to
create a market for them outside of
New York. This information, it added,
linked Hartman. alias Joseph Haller,

PEOPLE ON RELIEF

WASHINGTON, April II (UP)
The nations relief rolls stood
TODAY at an estimated 20,000,000
persons. as many as in April, 1885,
when the New Deal started its
81 ,OOO,OOO,OOO work program.
President Roosevelt asked con-
eress to appropriate another ST.
5OO,OOO,OOO for next year. His
action indicated the administration
does not anticipate a substantial
reduction in need in the next IL
months.
Works progress administration
statistics showed 14,1375O2 indi-
viduals are now living off the gov
ernment's 3,82O,946 made jobs.
Officials estimate another $780,
600 or more are receiving aid from
their localities.
The total now con relief is set
at 2O,OO0,000. Last year at this
time the government was feeding
2O,O28,27O persons through the
federal emergency relief admins
tration. ......
The trend before that also was
upward. Relief rolls listed 49,
825,979 persons in April, 1884.
The only decline came between
1933-1934. Administrator Harry
l.. Hopkins estimated that, when
he organized New Deal relief IN
Nav, 1888, there were 18,OOO,OOO
needy in the country.
Mr.. Roosevelt and Hopkins both
declared that renewed employ
ment by private industry is the
solution to the problem; that the
government is doing its full share.
