CLEVELAND, Oct. II NN.SJ.
FOLLOWING is the tert of President
RooSeUelt'S address last night at
the Great Lakes Exposition:
have had a very exciting and
a very instructive trip in the last
ten days through a great part of
this country.
It has been cheering after these
hard years to see on all sides smil-
ing faces and happy crowds again.
-Four years ago there were crowds,
too - but they had the anxious
faces of uncertainty and doubt,
faces Swallowed by trouble and
fear of the future. During the past
week the hundreds of thousands
of men and women and children I
have seen have cheerful faces and
voices of courage and hope.
Gives Ohio Figures
I am sure that the people in
Cleveland and other parts of Ohio
need no proof that your factories,
your shops, your farms, are all
doing bigger business, that those
who work in them are getting
more and fatter pay envelopes. II
anyone needs recovery figures,
here they are for Ohio.
Compare the first half Of 1886
with the first half Of 1888. What
do you find? Employment in all
industries is up SO per cent. Pay
rolls in all industries are up 80
per cent. Electric power produc-
ton is up a. per cent. Farm in
come, excluding benefit payments,
is up So per cent. Department store
sales in the Cleveland Federal Re-
serve district are up A per cent.
Retail furniture sales in the same
district are up So per cent. Build
ing permits in At Ohio cities have
increased by 367 per cent from
seven and one-half million to IS
million dollars.
Residential construction in the
same cities has increased TAI per
cent, from about two million dol
lars to about 1872 million dollars.
Claims All Improved
These figures show an increase
in business for every group in
Ohio. The fact that recovery has
come to all of these groups is a
refutation Of the old theory which
had guided the previous Admin
istration, and which I call the
"trickle down" theory.
That theory is that if you lend
some money to the few financial
interests at the top of the eco
nomic pyramid, it will trickle
down and some of it will find
it's way into the pay envelopes of
the workers, into the ledgers of
the millions of independent bust
ness men through the nation, and
into the pocketbook of the farm
ers. The trouble with that theory
was that there was always too
little left to trickle more than half
way down.
The theory of this Administra.
ton has been just the opposite.
We have acted in the conviction
that the way to bring about re-
covery was to tackle the prob
lens of those who were at the
bottom of the economic pyramid,
to increase earnings and income,

Delayed Four Days
Delayed four days in mid
Pacific by typhoons, we completed
the final 1,620-mile hop from
Guam without incident late yes

We were greeted at the harbor
by a large crowd Of officials and
Manila residents who hailed us as
inaugurating a new era in trans
portation between East and West.
Among the first to greet us
were Dorothy Kilgallen, Of Inter
national News Service and the
New York journal, and her fellow
globe-girdling racer, Leo Kieran.

take off on the return hop across
the ocean at dawn Tuesday.
In High Spirits
Dorothy is in high spirits over
the fact that she has maintained
the schedule she set when she
started out from New York. She
was in Manila on time and would
have boarded the China Clipper
several days ago if we had been
on time.
AS the result of the typhoon
delay, she has been held up at
Manila, but when she arrives in
New York she will still have the
round-the-world speed record for
women.

Connecticut Avenue.
Mr.. Hendrick has been in the
automobile business in Washington
since 1908. Interested in all mat
tiers concerned with motoring, he
still holds official records for driv-
ing between Washington and New
York.
Decision of Dave Hendrick to
take over the Nash-Lafayette dis
tributor franchise was made only
after a thorough study of new
1887 cars and plans for advertis-
ing and merchandising of them.
He said:
81 am not at liberty to divuIge
details of the new cars, but l
do not hesitate to predict they
will cause a sensation in the
motoring world. New standards,
values and appearance have been
built into the new models. They
have every refinement in me-
chanical detail and they will
set the pace for 1887 in style"
C. N. Roby, Eastern sales man
ager, and Mr.. Hendrick presented
the cars today to dealers and sales
men here at a meeting in the
Racquet Club.

enterprises, are going to show on
November third, that they have
not been frightened or fooled by
the expensive propaganda Of those
who would seek to spread the Cos
pei of fear, fear that this Admins
tration is antagonistic to business.
Points to Record
Read the record of what we have
done for business and you will find
the answer to that charge. repeat
here that the record shows that no
administration in the history of
the United States has done so
much to encourage the business of
the nation.
Back in the spring Of 1888, the
whole system of free enterprise
and private profit was on the edge
of ruin. 1t had been dragged there
by the same leaders who are now
trying to scare you. It was because
of our determination to keep the
American system that we sue
ceeded in doing what we did, at a
time when the system was almost
buried under the ruins.
Few of the public are being
fooled this year. Every now and
then stockholders and bondholders
in the United States are flooded
with literature warning them
against returning this Administra-
ton to office. They probably will
be appealed to again. That litera-
ture is being sent out from the
center of the great financial dis
trict of New York. The money of
the stockholders is being used to
finance this literature.
Fighting Money Cars
This waste of stockholders
money is being perpetrated by the
same group which had brought
business as a whole to it's knees
during the dark days of the de-
preston.
We fight only against that kind
Of concentrated wealth and eco
nomic power which in the old days
used to dictate not only to the
business of the nation but to gov
eminent itself-that small minor
ity Of financial interests whose
concern was not the welfare of the
nation, not the welfare of business
in America, but solely the extern
sion Of their own power.
1t is the glory of America that
the standard of living in higher
here than in any country or at
any time in the history of the
world.
The underlying issue in every
political crisis of our history has
been between those who, laying
emphasis on human rights, have
sought to exercise the power of
the Government for the many
and those who have sought to
exercise the power Of Government
for the few.
We are now coming to learn
that the interests Of the few
were best served when the inter
ests Of the many were best safe
guarded.
That is our fight now. It will
be won now as it has always been
won in America since the day
on which the members Of the
Continental Congress declared in
alienable the rights to life, liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness.

STAKE NOT ALL
NBABY RACE,
NAGLESSA
BY H. r. ARMSTRONG
Copyright. 1895. by King Features
Syndicate, Inc


TORONTO, Oct. 17.-f the
wealth that lies at the end of
Toronto's maternity marathon
rainbow presents the danger Of
bringing unhappiness to its re-
cipientS, at least one family en-
tered in the strange baby race are
not eager to acquire it.
That's the attitude of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Nagle, parents Of IL
children born in the last Is years,
who seem to have as good a chance
as any of winning the million
dollar legacy left by the late
Charles Vance Millar, Toronto
lawyer and sportsman, to the
mother bearing the most children
in Toronto in the 10 years preced-
ing next October 81.
Happiness Preferred
OF course they need the money
and they would like to have it.
But happiness is greater than
money, they say, and they have
always been happy without wealth.
Said Mrs. Maggie:
eff we get this money we hope
It will not destroy our happi-
ness"
care you afraid it might?"
1--WE hear so much about the
sorrow that follows in the path
Of wealth."
would you actually refuse
the money!"
"That would be difficult to
decide, but I would never want
my family to think that money
could do everything for them.
want all my children to have
a sense of their own response
bility."
There would be no retire
ment" for him, said Mr.. Nagle,
who has not had steady employ
ment for four years. A good job,
with a steady income, would look
better to him than all the money
in the world. He said:
"There is still too much for
us in life to think of retiring
yet-at any price,"
Despite the cares Of large
family and the adversely expert
enced during the past few years.
the Nagles are essentially a
happy family.
"Word Contest" Inks
They look upon every incident
in their IA years of married life
as an adventure. They know no
routine. Every days experiences
are different from those of the
previous day-and there are no
regrets in the Nagle vocabulary.
Though they have resided in
Toronto long enough to become
eligible for the Millar will legacy,
both Mr.. and Mrs. Maggie are ma
tives of the farm. and they both
harbor hope that some day they
may be wealthy enough to have a
country home of their own.
Mrs. Nagle longs for a "reSi-
Dental place" in the country,
while Mr.. Maggie confeSSes that
ever since he worked on Ontario
farms as boy, he has wished he
might own a farm of his own.
Mrs. Nagle doesn't like to use
the word contest" in connection
with the Millar legacy. She
doesn't feel that she is contesting
the will with other mothers.
Rather she would like to be
friends with all the other parents.

NO LONGER BANKRUPT

TN the first two years of the Roosevelt Admins
a tration, we believed then and still believe, it
would have been unwise to attempt the practical
mpossibility of balancing the Federal budget
The Hoover Administration had tried it by adding
new taxes and raising the rates of existing taxes
but revenues shrank for the simple reason that the
commerce and income of the people shraEk and
they had less and less money with which TO pay
taxes. So the deficit widened.
The Roosevelt Administration started out by
promptly making good on the Democratic platform
pledge to reduce government operating costs Is per
cent. Its economies even greater than the Is
per cent pledged. But they didn't last long, partly
because of politics-affected mnorities turned on
the political heat-but principally because the eco
nomcs of the depression called for another remedy
Hoovers last and Roosevelt's first futile efforts
were attempts to cure def1ation by more defation.
They did not succeed. They could not.
Fortunately, the Roosevelt Administration quickly
recognized that government penny pnching was no
panacea for the ills of country with agriculture
finance and business bankrupt, and $4,000 900 citi-
zens unemployed. And the government started prim-
ing the pump of trade restoring the jobs of millions
of citizens providing subsistence for those who could
not find jobs The purchasing power which the
government put in the hands of the people has borne
greater profits and dividends, tremendous increase
in the value of properties. tangible and intangible,
and in establishment of public morale.
ID ECAUSE of this government spending, a great
many people who were out in the cold few
years ago making money today Others whose
salaries were cut have restored pay. Still others
whose businesses were bankrupt waxing pros
porous. These are better times
Today in the nation instead of less and less
money with which to pay taxes there is more and
more. And it becomes vital that taxation policy
be instituted strong enough to turn the tide of
steadily increasing deficits The skies will not fall
If the budget is not balanced this year or next but
they may drop unless we soon start moving in that
direction.
Because we still have some 10 million unemployed,
because the Federal government is taking care of
about IA million people through various work relief
projects while about four million others-unempoy-
ables-are dependent state and local govern
ments, Federal government will need more
lush days before the depression. Many items, such
as social security, have been fixed permanently in
the outgo column. Probably we will never again
get government inside four billion or five bill
lion dollar budget.
But one thing is certain We have to get it in
side the amount we can raise by taxes And the
time is ripe to start moving revenue up and ex-
penses down. If pro-rated according to ability to
pay, taxes can be increased without injustice. And
if fripperies dispensed WITH expenses be cut
down without taking food out of the mouths or
clothes off the backs of those in need.
