 Half Dozen Speeches
 He made a half dozen speeches in which he tore into critics of the so- cial security act, arraigned republi- can leaders for "false promises, and last night in Wilmington. Del, the home city of the duPontS, wound up with a discourse on liberty and Abraham Lincoln.
 While not mentioning names, 1t appeared obvious that MT. Roosevelt had the duPontS, financial support CTS of the American Liberty league in mind selecting Liberty" as the theme of his speech.
 ''It seems appropriate" he said, that on this occasion I should make no political speech because I can better describe the kind of lib- erty which our administration has sought and continues to seek by reading to you the simple words of a great president who believed in that kind of Nberty-the great pres- ident who preserved the American union.
 Quotes From Lincoln
 They are from the speech made by President Lincoln at the Sani- tary fair in Baltimore in 1884:
 "The world has never had a good definition of the word liberty, and the American people, just now, are much in want of one. We all de- clare for liberty, but in using the same word, we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others the same word may. mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other mems labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name, nb- erty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective par- ties, called by two different and in- compatible names = liberty and tyranny.
 "The shepherd drives the wolf from the Sheep'S throat for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his nberator, while the wolf de- nounces him for the same act, as the destroyer of liberty plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of the word liberty; and precisely the same difference prevails today among us human creatures ". and all pro- fessing to love liberty. Recently. as it seems, the people have been doing something to define liberty, and thanks to them that, in what they have done, the wolf's diction- ary has been repudiated.'
 ''Those," MT. Roosevelt continued, "are Lincoln'S words. They apply today as they did then. The people of the city of Wilmington appreciate their significance in the same meas ure as men and women in every other part of the union."
 Wild Scenes At Phil.
 MT. Roosevelt arrived in Whining ton 45 minutes after a tumultuous demonstration for him in tradition ally republican Philadelphia. Sev- eral hundred thousand persons there roared out a mighty welcome as he drove through streets damned from beyond the curb to the building line.
 At times his progress was halted as enthusiastic citizens broke through police lines to get nearer his automobile. The president en- route from Philadelphia to Camden, N. J., required an hour to negotiate what ordinarily would be a 12 or IS minute automobile trip.
 Democratic leaders, jubilant over the enthusiasm, told him that the city would be found in his column next Tuesday along with the rest of Pennsylvania.
 The Philadelphia show in noise and exuberance was on a par with those staged for theh president in Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Denver, St. Louis and other large cities wis., tied during the campaign.
 At Camden thousands more cheered him.
