term hope for democracy in this
land of ours.
In this objective there is scope
for the genius of America. There
Is scope for our idle capital, there
is scope for our capital goods
industries and for our manufac-
turing techniques, there is new
opportunity for our labor and
new jobs for our unemployed. BY
the wise use OF credits and by
economic agreements we can en-
courage the industrial develop
ment of other countries, help
them to expand and promote
their prosperity.
I realize that in the present
condition of the world that OBJ
jective seems almost infinitely
far away.
But distance and difficulty
have never troubled our people.
We have thrived on them. This
beautiful city Of your stands as a
living symbol Of what We can
hope for and what we can ac-
complish. if we are given
chance. We crossed a continent
to get here and build metrop-
oils on your hills.
Let our Government have con-
fidence in usl We are not half
finished with the job we want to
do. We have not half finished
the job of making democracy the
most powerful influence in the
world

world was waiting for. And sec
ondly, we should have taken i'm
mediate steps to repair the dam
age in 1888 at the London eco
nomic conference. We should
have adopted a vigorous policy
for the promotion of trade and
commerce. We should have set
about creating strong and pros
porous era OF peace.
Packing Of Supreme Court
Went Before Recovery.
But on January 20. 1887, when
Mr.. Roosevelt was inaugurated
for a second term, what did he
undertake as his first great job?
He might have undertaken to
promote recovery in this coun-
try-thiS great country that was
tagging behind the rest of the
world. But he wasn't interested
in that.
He might have undertaken to
do something to encourage world
trade and insure world peace.
But world peace didn't seem to
be worrying him very much.
Then-what was on his mind?
Why, a scheme for packing the
Supreme Court of the United
States.
And we all remember what
happened as result Of that
scheme The totally unexpected
and totally unnecessary contro-
versy about the Supreme Court
split America in two. Congress
became preoccupied with the de-
Tense of our Constitution. While
Hitler's power increased from
day to day, we presented to the
world the spectacle of a great
people. the greatest of the de-
mocracies, torn asunder by a
broil over one of our most fun
damental principles.
That was the time when Frank
lin D. Roosevelt had his golden
opportunity to save world democ-
racy in the eleventh hour-and
don't forget that the very next
year was the year of Munich.
That was the time when. by en-
couraging industry in this coun-
try, by encouraging money to
flow, and by providing people
with opportunity to work, he
could have placed a substantial
obstacle in the path of Hitler

utterly and savagely alone. No
nation on earth, except Britain,
owes us anything but disillusion-
ment and i'll will.
We must-we desperately must
rid ourselves Of the fallacy that
democracy can be defended with
words. with poses. with political
paraphenalia designed to i'm
press the American people and
no one else.
Must Keep Sending
Aid to Great Britain.
We must send and we must
keep sending aid to Britain, our
first line Of defense and our only
remaining friend. We must aid
her to the limit of prudence and
effectiveness, as determined by
impartial experts in this field.
In the Pacific our best ends
will be served by a free, strong
and Economically progressive
China, and we should render
China economic assistance to
that end. In addition, I favor
exploring the acquisition and de-
velopment of Pacific air bases
for the protection of our inter-
ests In that ocean.
I favor the building of a de-
tense system adequate to protect
our soil from aggression from
any quarter-a defense system so
strong that none will ever dare
to strike.

Snake Bite Kills Virginion
Who Joined in Cult Service

tice locally. Mayor Robert L. Lam
bert summoned a special session
OF the Council which enacted to-
night an ordinance forbidding the
handling of snakes within the towns
jurisdiction.
Evangelist Grizzell. native OF
Bradshaw, w. Va, informed Attor-
ney Gillespie that the snakes were
not handled in his services until he
or the saints of his congregation
had been ordered by God. The evan
gelist and others testified that Mr..
Cordle was told if his power" was
not strong enough. he should re-
ceive medical aid. This he refused,
they said.
Constable Dan TAYLOR Of Rich
lands told of seeing Mr.. Cordle two
hours after he was bitten and in
spected the arm which was begin
ming to swell. He offered then, he
said, to bring a physician.

the obstacle of trade and pros
perity. But instead Of doing this,
he turned against the United
States Supreme Court, one Of
the greatest democratic institu-
lions in the world.
When I hear the New Dealers
claiming that this man is such
a wizard at foreign affairs: when
1 hear them claim that he is the
one indispensable man to defend
our democracy today, I cannot
take them seriously. I cannot
avoid the conclusion that they
are trying to sell the American
people something different from
that which is written in the book
OF history.
Charges Administration
Contributed to European War.
bring charge against the
New Deal which I have measured
carefully. charge that this ad-
ministration has contributed to
the downfall of European democ-
racy. I charge that it must bear
direct share of the respon-
sibility for the present war.
In taking uD this position I am
not alone. have. standing as it
were at my side. speaking I would
almost say, my own words. the
man who. above all others. stands
forth today as the defender of
democracy and freedom on this
earth. This man said in 1887
less than year after Mr.. Roose-
welt was inaugurated a second
time:
There is one wav above all
others in which the United States
can aid the European democ-
raries. Let her regain and main
tain her normal prosperity"
The man who said that in 1887
is Winston Churchill. the en-
battled Prime Minister of Britain.
The point is so clear. it is so
important. that I am going to
read you what he said at some
length. Listen well. The words
you are about to hear are the
words of an oracle.
There is one way above all
others says Mr.. Churchill. Gin
which the United States can aid
the European democracies. Let
her regain and maintain her nor.
NAL prosperity. A prosperous

unemployment and encourage
ment to American enterprises,
without which we cannot hope to
maintain our democratic insti-
tutions.
These are the elements Of the
battle of America. Yet I am one
who does not believe in fighting
battles unless I am fighting for
an objective. I propose that we
begin to outline our objective, no
matter how remote.
We are a commercial people
and we must therefore build up
the commerce Of the world. We
are a peaceful people and we
must therefore strengthen peace
by giving other peoples-demo-
cratic peoples - our economic
support.
Must Work Toward
Higher Living Standard.
BY this I mean that we must,
above all things, work toward
higher standard Of living. We
must work for a higher standard
not only here in America but in
other countries as we'll. The
necessity for doing this is borne
out by the statistics Of our for
eign trade. BY and large, our
trade is best with those countries
which have the highest standard
of living. I truly believe that a
high standard Of living In Can

lea, in the Orient, and perhaps
some day again in shattered
