I believe, I have always believed,
and will always believe In private
enterprise as the backbone Of eco
nomic well-being in America.
But I know, and you know, and
every independent business man
who has had to struggle against
the competition Of monopolies
knows, that this concentration Of
economic power in all-embracing
corporations does not represent
private enterprise as we Americans
cherish it and propose to foster 1t.
On the contrary, it represents pri-
vate enterprise that has become a
kind Of private government which

how antagonistic to business this
administration is said to be. You
have heard all about the dangers
which the business Of America is
supposed to be facing II this
administration continues.
The answer to that Is the record
Of what we have done. 1t was this
administration which saved the
system of private profit and free
enterprise after 1t had been
dragged to the brink Of ruin by
these same leaders who now try
to scare you.
Fever Charts Show
How Sick America Was.
Look at the advance in private
business in the last three and q
half years and read there what we
think about private business.
Today for the first time in seven
years the banker, the storekeeper,
the small factory owner. the in
dustrialist, can all sit back and en-
Joy the company Of their ledgers.
They are in the black. That is
where we want them to be; that
Is where our policies aim them to
be; that Is where we intend them
to be in the future.
Some of these people really for
get how sick they were. But I
know how sick there were. I have
their fever charts. I know how
the knees Of all of our rugged in
dividualists were trembling four

years ago and how their hearts
huttered. They came to Washing
ton in great numbers. Washington
did not look like a dangerous bu-
reaucracy to them then. Oh, no;
1t looked like an emergency hos
pital. All of the distinguished pa
tients wanted two things quick
hypodermic to end the pain and a
course Of treatment to cure the
disease. We gave them both. And
now most Of the patients seem to
be doing very nicely. Some of them
are even well enough to throw
their erutches at the doctor.
The struggle against private mo-
nopoly is struggle for, and not
against, American business. 1t is a
struggle to preserve individual en-
terprise and economic freedom.

We have come through a hard

We have given the business man
cheaper transportation rates.
But above all, we have fought to
break the deadly grip which
monopoly has in the past been able
to fasten on the business Of the
Nation.
Because we cherished our system

prise and were determined to pre-

traditional American system, we

Businesses Being Absorbed
In Era Of False Prosperity.
Our job was to preserve the
American ideal Of economic as well
as political democracy, against the
abuse of concentration of economic
power that had been insidiously
growing up among us in the last
so years, particularly during the
IL years of preceding administra-
tions. Free economic enterprise
was being weeded out at an alarm
ing pace.
During those years Of false pros
perity and during the more recent
years of exhausting depression, one
business after another, one small
corporation after another, their re-
sources depleted, had failed or had

by interlockine directors, interlock.

CHICAGO, October 15.-President
Rooseve,t's address last night in the
Chicago Stadium, where four years
ago he was nominated for the presi-
dency, was highlighted by the follow
ing excerpts:
"The train of American business Is
moving ahead"
Mind you. 1t did not get out OF
the ditch itself, 1t was hauled out by
your Government"
Some people say that all this re-
covery has just happened. But in a
complicated modern world recoveries
from depressions do not just happen.
The years from 1929 to 1888 when
we waited for recovery just to hap
pen proves the point"
IT believe, I have always believed,
and I will always believe in private
enterprise as the backbone of economic
well-being in America"
Behind the growing recovery OF
today is a story Of deliberate Govern
ment acceptance Of responsibility to

equaled by any government in his

am speaking about a minority which
includes the type Of individual
who speculates with other peoples
money-and you in Chicago know
the kind I refer to-and also the
type Of individual who says that
popular Government cannot be
trusted and, therefore. that the
control Of business of all kinds and,
indeed, of Government Itself
should be vested in the hands Of
one hundred or two hundred all
wise individuals controlling the
purse strings Of the Nation.
High finance of this type refused
to permit Government credit to go
directly to the industrialist, to the
businessman, to the home owner.
to the farmer. They wanted 1t to
trickle down from the top, through
the intricate arrangements which
they controlled and by which they
were able to levy tribute on every
business in the land.
Wanted Government to
Keep Hands OF Market.
They did not want interest rates
TO be reduced by the use Of Gov
erninent funds-for that would af-
feet the rate of interest which they
themselves wanted to charge. They
did not want Government super
vision over financial markets
through which they manipulated
their monopolies with other peo-
pies money.
And in the face of their de-
mands that Government do moth
ing that they called "unsound,"
the Government, hypnotized by its
Indebtedness to them, stood by and
let the depression drive industry
and business toward bankruptcy.

Body Of "Grand Old Lady
of Stage" to Be Gre

Ry the Associated Press.
MONTVALE, Va, November H.
Mrs. Thomas Whifien, o., who rose
to eminence in more than 50 years
on the American stage, died Wednes-
day afternoon at her home near here
where she had lived In retirement for
10 years.
The grand old lady Of the stage"
lived in a farm cottage In the Blue
Ridge foothills, where she had been
in declining health for more than .
year. The family announced the death
yesterday.
Born In London.
The body Of Mrs. Whiffen will be
removed from q Bedford undertaking
parlor, where it has rested since yes
terday, and taken late this afternoon
by train to Washington, accompanied
by her son Thomas and daughter,
Miss Peggy. Cremation will be there
tomorrow, and q short funeral service
will be held in the crematory chapel.
The ashes then will be sent to Hart
ford, a village about IS miles from
London, where lies the body Of Mrs.
Whiffen's husband and where other
relatives reside.
Born Blanche Galton, in London,
in l845, Mrs. Whiffen came to Amer
lea in 1868. making her American
debut the day after she landed. From
that day until 1920 she was asso-
ciated with leading personages Of the
theater in this country.
Visited BY Frohman.
But even In her eos, far from the
scenes Of her triumphs on the metro
politan stages and in the provinces"
the footlights lured her strongly. She
emerged from her retirement six years
ago to appear in New York in . benefit
performance of "Trelawny at the
Wells" That was her last appearance
on the stage, but in 1888 she came to
Roanoke with her daughter Peggy for
the presentation of q radio sketch in
jeremiah" q biblical drama.
One Of the events Of her declining
days was the visit to her home last
year Of Daniel Frohman, S5-year-old
producer, under whose direction she
played in the old Lyceum Theater in
New York, 50 years ago. They re-
called the days of Mrs. Whifien's ap-
pearance in Hazel Kirk"
Surviving Mrs whifYen are her son,
Thomas. and daughter, Peggy. who
lived with her.
