FOR CRACKS SHARP REPLIES
 AT OPPONENTS

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 25-In high good humor and with tone reminiscent of his campaign of 1892. President Roosevelt addressed the nation from Convention Hall here Wednesday night in his first political speech Of the campaign. striking out with typical Roosevelt yigor and drama at his opponent Wendell Willkie without mention ing the latter's name
 Deliberate Justification of the facts prompted him. the President said. to make reply and set the true picture before the American people. In direct terms the Chief Executive labeled as outright "misstatement of facts" the charge that he had reie- phoned the dietators abroad to sell CzeekosloYakia down the ri- yer. or had anything to do with the Munich pact His words bristl- ing with challenge. he hurled the same amisstatement Of fact. at the charge that he was leading the na- ton into war.
 Strives For Peace
 The President Of the United States and your Secretary of State have strove and are striving only for peace. he declared. in bringing out that in all deliberations peace for America had been the major objective It is the objective today. he said in building up the national defense to protect and defend Amer ica and the American way of living.
 Answering the charge that bus iness was in a constant state of de- pression under the Democratic re- gime and that business was fear ful, the President quoted figures revealing that business is in a sounder state today than it was in the halcony days Of 1929. Source. Of the charges that business was in the. doldrums due to the Democratic administration came, the President said. from those same Republicans who had talked of 8 chicken in cyl cry pot" and two cars in every garage, but when the crash came they were unable to do anythingI about it. or at least didn't.
 Chides G0Pers
 We don't promise a chicken lnI every pot nor two cars in every garage" AIr Roosevelt remarked. but We do know that on the tables of the people of America there isl better food, mere eggs, more cheese, more butter. more of everything today than there was seven years ago, and there is a feeling of secur- ity and well being among the peo- pie"
 Shaping with sarcasm. bubbling with humor and at other times tense with drama. the speech was credited by reporters generally as one of the most brilliant campaign talks the President had ever made. Warning his listeners with his op- ening remark. I'm an old cam paigner and love a good fight" the President left no doubt as he concluded his 30-minutes address that on the political stump he has no peer.
