RICE OUTLINES
 RECOVERY PLAN
Declares Production to Be Key to Prosperity,
 COntented Lives

Colonel Roy E. Rice, Republican candidate for congress, was inter viewed over the radio last evening by the Republican party's recovery reporter" His remarks or responses to prepared questions resulted in the presentation of his views on the present economic situation in the United States and what is needed to promote recovery.
 In part Colonel Rice commented as follows:
 "All my life I've worked and worked hard. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I'm not a rich man. I've never been able to sit back and take 1t easy. When I had Q job to do, l did 1t and that's why I'm here right now. There's a job to DC done; full time job to bring to your neigh bors and mine the good things in life they need and deserve and which they havn't been getting. I've always felt that when 8 man went to congress, he was sent there from the people in his district to represent them-to give them fair deal and to fight for legislation that would be beneficial and that's why I've been asking peopse questions.
 T want to have at my finger tips the pressing needs of the peo- pie I'm going to serve. I want to get down to the capitol and fight for those things that each and every one of us must have if we are to get some happiness out of life.
 Outlining his idea of recovery, he said:
 We can make work and give jobs back to men if we take busi- ness-like view of the whole situa- ton. But we can't do 1t if we have Q lot of half-baked ideas forced down the throats of people.
 "You know they tell a story about Q man who decided he could live without food. But he said he was going to be scientific about it. Each day he cut down on the amount he ate, and just when he was about to be successful, he died of starvation. That's whats been happening to us. We need some- thing to eat, and they tell us we don't need food. We need more production and they tell us we must cut down production. We need surplus of everything and they tell us we must have 6 scarcity of everything.
 "Did you ever hear of the coun- try getting richer if the people got poorer? No. If our country is to grow-if we in Connecticut are to progress, we must produce. We must increase the amount we pro duce, and then we'll have jobs, wealth and happiness.
 Temporary unemployment does not solve the problem. You can't keep fooling the people all the time. They've seen Q slight pick up in business before and they know it will not last unless com- mon business sense is used to bring on e permanent recovery. They're glad to get the work but they don { believe that this time we've hit the nail on the head. The present leaders have cried Wolf too many times. Each time they have tried to make the people thnk that this time they've hit the real thing and each time, we have sunk back deeper and deeper Into the depths of Q new depression"

the borrower to show that he has
an income or capacity sufficient
to take care Of the payments on
the loan. These loans will cover
repairs, low-priced homes, and
even new farm buildings. The pro-
cedure will be much simpler than
loans under Title 2, which are in
tended for new residences mainly.
A mortgage will be required to Sc
cure such loans. Appraisals by
federal representatives will be
necessary.

Applicants interested in loans

Application blanks other than a
few obtained from other cities
have not arrived. When these are
supplied by the federal authori-

kinds, with prices, and have this
data ready to present to those who
help to prepare the applications.
