Speaks at Dedication.
Spending much of his time pre-
pairing the speeches needed for this
last push" Mr.. Roosevelt took time
out yesterday to attend and speak
at dedication ceremonies for the new
National Institute of Health at Be-
thesda, Md.
Even this appearance was made
politically important, however, by
inclusion in his address of an answer
to one of the attacks of campaign
foeS-that the administration favors
socialization of medicine.
Neither the American people nor
their Government intend to socialize
medical practice any more than they
plan to socialize industry" he said.
"No one has a greater appreciation
than of the skill and self-sacrifice
of the medical profession And
there can be no substitute for the
personal relationship between doctor
and patient which is characteristic
and source of strength of medical
practice in our land
Meanwhile, Washington contrib
uted its full share of speeches and
statements.
Speaking from here last night,
Assistant Secretary of War Robert
P Patterson asserted that any
charge that the Roosevelt admins
tration cannot get the thorough and
cordial cooperation of industry =
is a gross injustice to American in
dustry and it is squarely contra
dicted by what industry has already
done and is going forward to do in
furtherance of the defense program"

Mr. Roosevelt admitted defeat
when he nominated me for Secre-
tary of Agriculture, Mr.. Martin
said "I hasten to decline the nomi-
nation. I do not choose to enter
the cabinet. But the third-term
candidate need not worry. The
country can be certain President

Agriculture who will give every
farmer a real break and who will
give real prosperity to the farmer
instead of a dole, which they be-
lieVe would keep them in political
bondage"
