/, pumping the water and using oil
lamps.
You talk about a machine age and
you find that even in 1896 the first
ambition of the farm woman is still
to have water in the house, then elec-
tricity. She hopes, too, that her chill
dren will be well educated. other
things she says she will get as life
gets along.
"Take the RADIO" explained
housewife who in spite Of no elec-
tricity in the home proudly displayed
The radio is one of the greatest
blessings to the farm woman. 1t
brings her education and amusement.
Sometimes I read that city people
complain about the advertising of
things over it. We like it. A farm
woman wants to learn how to buy.
She is interested in brands and labels.
She wants to know If a garment is
going to shrink. Now when I buy an
icebox I want to find out how many
years it will last. We have so little
ready cash that we spend it extra
carefully. That is one reason women
like cooperative buying and we are
doing lots of it."
In this section there are a num-
ber of tenant farmers. Many of the
men and their families live in town
and the men go out to the farm to
work for hire or for shares. The
farm women think this condition un.
healthy. IF you live that way how
can you train your children to like
the farm life?" they ask.
Farm mothers are firmly aware
that if they want to give their
children heritage of the soil they
must also train them to love it and
not want to run off to the city the
first chance they get.
You sit in the big, cleanly scrubbed
kitchen eating luscious corn fritters
with your coffee and your hostess is
most anxious to discuss her problem.
In a way it is the mothers fault
if the child does not like the farm"
she explains. Nowadays it is not
necessary to work the children the
way they used to. Of course, they
have certain chores like feeding stock,
but kids like animals. What they
hate is milking, and wise mother
makes father get milking machine.
I'VE strive in this community to
get our boys and girls interested
from the time they begin school in
the farm boys and girls club work.
1t is made interesting, as well as
being educational We have many
competitive activities that appeal to
their pride. You would be amazed
how much they learn. Then by the
time they are grown they love the
farm and are ready to take over
their work. Many of our All boys
and girls have the chance to 60 to

told us where floods should be
controlled. You told us where
new homesteads should be To-
Gated. You told us how Denver
wanted to get its new water
supply.
You told us where roads need

the United States the most prac-
tical way of giving work and at

your advice was good.

to see Republican leaders call this

Conditions Cited

In our unified national eco
nomic life, we now know that in

or mining languishes.
The great but uneven prosperity
of the nineteen-twenties made us
neglect for too long a period the
growing signs that things were
not going right with the farmer
and miner.
Surely we have learned that
lesson, Surely you remember the
idleness of your gold and silver,

roads, your farms and ranches
all Of them had suffered together
in the collapse of the prices and
income.
And when that stream of bust
ness had dried on the farms and
plains and in the hills. the stream
of business through the nation
also dried.
In the complete stagnation of
business. or mines and of farms,
there was only one agency ca
pable Of starting things going
again - government not local
government. not 48 State govern
ments, because they had reached
the limit of their resources, but
the Federal Government itself.
And yet, up to March 4, 1888, the
Federal Government held back,
doing nothing except to lend dol
lars to people at the top with the
vain hope that some of it would
trickle down, and except to fold
their arms. stand still and wait
for a famous corner to come to
them.
When this Administration came
in, it's first act was to discover
where the corner was and then
to turn it. The turning involved
action and the action was based
on two obvious and simple meth.
DDS Of locomotion. First, by spend
ing money to put people to work,
and, secondly, by lending money
to stop people from going broke
1t meant doing these two things
in the industrial East, in the
South, in the Middle West, on
the plains, in the Rockies and out
on the Coast. We knew that the
only practical way to turn the
corner was to start the whole
country turning it at the same
time.
One of the first jobs we under
took was the assistance to the
miners and farmers in the West.
Those of you who now see bust,
ness moving again in your local
shops and stores and factories

began to move off his shelves for
the first time-that the wheels
of your factories and mills began

to spend money and had provided
employment for millions of people
on all kinds of projects.

All States Helped

Republican leaders tell us that
this, too, was a policy of waste.
Who benefited? The stockman
who found market, and was lit"
orally saved from bankruptcy, the
bankers who held the mortgage on
the stock, the merchant with whom
the stockman and the banker
dealt, the packer who processed
the meat. But above all those who
benefited most were the unfortu-
nate men and women and children
on the relief rolls-hundreds of
thousands of families all over the
country-to whom the meat was
distributed. Even the hides of these
animals were saved. I call that
work program and cattle buying
program an investment to preserve
America-the whole of American
national life. Do you call it waste?
The cattle buying program was
carried out in cooperation with the
stockmen themselves. And now

gram from the very beginning to
conserve the water resou4 ces of the
country so that the beds of the
rivers of all the important water
sheds of America will work for
the people of all the States through
which they run.
I want to see that day come
soon. 1t will help each and every
State which lies between here and
the Missi .ippi River. The work
which we have already put under
way to realize that dream is but
a forerunner of what we hope to
do in the days to come.
There were other great re-
sources of this Western country,
the development of which we I'M
dertook as an important and nee
essary part of the rounded OBJ
jective. Take beet sugar for an
example. I do not have to recite
the record of steadily declining
income in that industry before
March, 1888.
World production of sugar had
expanded at such a rate that there
was more sugar than the world
could possibly consume. What
we tried to do, and what we sue
ceeded in doing. was to adjust the
supply of sugar so that a farmer
who raises it gets a more adequate
return. And you, the raisers of
sugar beets, I congratulate on
substantial reduction in the en-
ployment of hired children in the
fields. In this word of thanks I
know I am joined by the fathers
and mothers of America
Take a final eXample-in these
great mountain chains which eX-
tend from our northern to our
southern border, exists a store
house of enormous wealth, its ul-
innate yield as yet unguessed.
The revival of industry, of farm
ing and of transportation have
provided a revival of mining-coal
and iron and oil and copper and
lead and zinc. But the Govern
ment has contributed by direct
action as we'll. When we laid the
ghost of the old gold parity of
the dollar, when we purchased
silver, too. you in the mountains
felt the old thrill of the search
for precious metal. Old develop
ments again became profitable.
New developments sprang up. Min
ing became again an industry
where men could find jobs.
The great bullion reserves now
in the United States Treasury
are sufficient to redeem every
dollar of our currency far more
than 100 per cent, and, yet, people
for partisan purposes are willing
to spread the gospel of fear that
our currency is not on a sound
foundation. I tell you, and you
The Washington times., 1936-10-12

know, that our monetary system is
the soundest in the world today.
tell you, and you will agree,
that we are around the corner.
Private employment is picking up.
That means that Government ex-
penditures for work for the unem-
ployed are coming down. That
means that the total of Govern
ment expenditures will decline.
Turning the corner also means
that Government income from
existing taxes, without new taxes,
is going up. repeat to you what
I said in Pittsburgh a week and
a half ago, that decrease in ex-
penditures and increase in income
means, within year or two,
balanced budget and the begin
ming of reduction in the national
debt

also in the protection and develop
ment of the range we are acting
in cooperation with them. Stock
raising is a major industry in
America. It's soundness must be
preserved. Twenty years ago I was
in the Mississippi Valley at the
time of a great flood. I saw the
waters of the Arkansas surge into
the waters of the Mississippi.
I asked where those waters came
from. They told me that a part of
them had come all the way from
