days, because the wide-open
spaces were open to those ma

were flocking hither from the
centers of Europe to find work
in new fields.
A current author emphasizes
the perfection of life that sur
rounded our population half a
century ago. He draws a pic
ture of the lack of any restraints
on any individual, and infers
that every American of those
days, no matter what part Of
the country he or she lived in,
lived in a Utopia Of work and
play to which we should seek an

and perspective, and second,
goodwill and a sense Of humor.
Almost every crisis of our his
tory since 1889 has become
crisis because of a lack on the
part of leaders or on the part OF
the people, themselves, or both,
of some of these essentials.
The very birth of the Demo-
cratic party, at a time when
President Washington publicly
expressed the hope that the
Nation could be run without
parties, was due to the simple
fact that the Government it
self was dominated by the great
commercial and shipping inter-
eStS of the seaboard, and failed
to give recognition to the needs
and the desires of the masses
of the inhabitants of the origi-
nal 13 States who did not sub
scribe to the theory that birth,
wealth or political position could
give to the poSsessors of these
qualifications the sole right 20
govern. Hence, the Democratic
party.
A generation later, a Govern.
ment dominated by the other
extreme-the palmer people
from the back country, from the
Piedmont and the slopes of the
Alleghanies, paying scant atten-
ton to the Ship-owners of the
seaboard, drove our nation into
the second war against Great
Britain,

Trained in West

Theodore Roosevelt, born OF
an old New York family, South
ern on his mothers side. trained
as a young man on our Western
frontiers, was perhaps the first
American President in modern
times who knew the whole ma
ton.
In the letter in which I have
read, and with this national
background, it seems to me
what he said, in effect, was,
first, that the American people
have, and must have, a definite
objective fo1 the Improvement
of government, for the improve
ment of social and economic
conditions; second, that these
objectives must be carried out
by definite action, and, third,
that in the attaining of them,
the President and the Govern
ment and the people as a whole
must have two essential quail
ties-first, a sense of proportion

ceSseS which have made this
country strong and great.
The future, however, rests not
on chance alone, not on mere
conservatism, mere smugness,
mere fataliSm, but on the affir-
NATIVE action which we take
in America. What America does
or fails to do in the next few
years has q far greater bearing
and influence on the history of
the human race for centuries to
come than most of us who are
here today can ever conceive.
We are not only the largest
and most powerful democracy in
the whole world, but many other
democracies look to US for lead
erShip that world democracy
may survive.
I am speaking not of the ex-
ternal policies of the United
States. They are exerted on the
side Of peace and they are ex-
erted more strongly than ever
before toward the self-preserva-
ton Of democracies through the
assurance Of peace.
What I would emphasize is
the maintenance of successful
democracy at home. Necessar-
lily, democratic methods within
a nations life entail change
the kind of change through To-
cal processes described by Mr..
Justice Cardozo; the kind of
change to meet new social and
economic needs through recog-
nized processes Of government.

again with more strength than
they had before.
1t is also true that other men
in public life have protested
against certain forms of eco
nomic control and that epithetS
far stronger than any l have
used have been employed even
by Presidents of the United
States. Those of us who knew
Woodrow Wilson and Theodore
Roosevelt and Grover Cleveland
could hardly call them Molly
