Business conditions in this country
are nothing to write home about. This
year seems to be following the ancient
precedent that general election year
lis bad for industry. The business ba-
rometers have been slowly sagging,
and while there have been no sharp
drops, there are no signs of any sig
nificant upturn in the near future.
War orders from the Allies continue
to boom a limited number of indus
tries, but their effect on industrial con-
ditions in general is not particularly
noticeable. And the war has caused a
sharp curtailment of European pur-
chasing of tobacco, cotton, and other
agricultural produce.
The attitude of business leaders
might be described as one of nervous
watchful waiting-they are making
few forecasts, and seem to have little
idea of which way the tide will turn

WISDOM

Facts that are not frankly faced
have a habit of stabbing us in the
back. Sir Harold BOwden.
Evening star., 1940-10-27

Our doctrine is the doctrine
Of unite and serve.
I have stood on hundreds of
platforms in this country. Elected
or not elected, I expect to stand
on hundreds more, preaching to
the American people that they
must unite or else they will sink
in this modern world.
Without any regard to myself
personally, but because of the
crusade 1 lead, 1 stand before
you tonight as the only candidate
for President in 1910 who can
unite all the elements of Amer
lean life in our common cause.
This means, first of all, that if
you elect me President of the
United States. we shall call to
service the ablest men that can
be found. This can be done, be-
cause we know who the ablest
men are and have given no
pledges anywhere to anybody for
political purposes.
We will not have political pup
pets about. We will pick men to
represent labor who come from
the ranks and who know labor's
needs.
We will pick men to represent
agriculture who are real farmers
and know the farmers needs.
We will pick men who know
industry, and know finance. and
men who are familiar with our
political problems.
Wants an Attorney General
To Render Sound Opinions.
And we don't want an Attorney
General to lisp a following acqui-
escence in a fine-spun legal way.
We want an Attorney General
who will render sound opinions
on the Constitution and the laws
of the land as they are. whether
or not they serve my ends.
All these men will have differ
ent specialties and different in
terests. But they will have one
common goal. They will marshal
all their knowledge and skill and
energy and all their devotion to
help get America back into pro-
duction.
Our administration will be
faced with the task of building
our neglected national defense.
If we are to be safe that pro-
gram must proceed much faster
than it is going now. We shall
centralize authority and respon-
sibility for this program so long
and only so long-as this defense
emergency lasts.
Many able men who under
stand production are now serv-
ing the cause of defense in Wash
ington These we will retain. But
we shall see that they are pro-
vided with the proper organiZa-
ton and the proper authority to
use their great talents to the best
advantage.
And we will make you this
pledge. When that defense pro-
gram creates new jobs and better
business we shall not boast Of
that as an achievement. 1t will
be neither ours nor a lasting
achievement. The American peo-
pie will pay for their defense
program with taxes and debts and
their efforts. 1t is burden that
We must bear-a false prosperity,
not a real and enduring pros
perity.
If We are to save America we
must promote our other industries

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-The
prepared tert OF Wendell L. Will
kie'S address tonight at the
Jamaica High School, Long
Island, tollo1OS::
People of New York:
I want to talk to you tonight
very simply.
You have heard a great many
arguments in this campaign,
from both sides. Some of those
arguments are technical. Some
times they involve a knowledge of
economics, or of industrial tech
nology, or of military science.
Other argumentS-and l am
thinking chiefly of the arguments
put forth by the boss of the
Bronx and sanctioned by their
beneficiary-aren't so technical.
Those arguments are-muddy.
I come to you tonight from
many weeks spent among the
American people, and want to
tell you what they have taught
me. They have taught me that
the fundamental issues of this
campaign are the simple. homely
issues of American democracy.
I have predicted, and I predict
again tonight, that if the present
administration is restored to
power for third time, our demo-
cratic system will not outlast an
other four years. Against this
prediction the third-term candi-
date has offered no assurance
and can offer no credible asSur-
ance.
Charges Roosevelt
Seeks to Evade Issues.
The reason I make this pre-
diction is because the real issues
of this campaign are issues that
the third-term candidate cannot
meet. cannot answer, and does
not face. His effort is to evade
That is an effort to evade the
American people.
will tell you of one hope which
Is deep in the heart of every
American. And that is the hope
of unity.
The American people wish to
be united once more.
Tonight I shall tell you why
this is so necessary. and how l
believe it can be done.
1t is superficial to believe that
the democracies of Europe
France. Holland. Belgium. Nor
way and the others-collapSed
merely because they were over
vhelmed by a superior military
force. They collapsed essentially
because they had become divided
within
That is why I have said so
often that the proper course for
us to have followed in foreign
policy during the past seven or
eight years was to strengthen
those democracies economically
and financially and commercially.
According to Winston Churchill,
the New Deal did the opposite by
permitting our depression to con-
tinue.
The symptoms of weakness in
those democracies were apparent
to any informed observer long
before their collapse.
Recalls How French
Fought Among Themselves.
For instance, France became
Evening star., 1940-10-27

Believe me, America is at the
crossroads.
The administration in power
does not understand the issues
or if it understands them, it
evades them. Not once, not once
in this entire campaign has it
acknowledge the great problems
that now confront America.
Not once has 1t told the Amer
ican people how il can preserve
their liberty while going deeper
and deeper into debt.
Evening star., 1940-10-27

lea. We are crying out, to put
that faith into action.
If we can keep our liberty to-
day, there lies ahead of us
greater age. There lies ahead a
world of which, in our discour-
agement and doubt. we have not
tried to dream. To reach that
world We must be strong. To
have strength, we must be joined
together. To this cause I call
you. No cause that you will ever
know can be as great as this.
Evening star., 1940-10-27

at the same time. We cannot live
on armament alone. We must
establish a firm foundation Of
production in every branch of in
dustry.
We must make foresighted pro-
vision for the day when the
defense program has been COM
pleted. We must provide stabil-
izing forces and prevent the COL
lapse that so often follows great
efforts of that kind. That in
cludes jobs for demobilized men.
Evening star., 1940-10-27

Not once has it explained how
we can meet the requirements of
the defense program while we are
pickering among ourselves, each
jealous of the others share of
what little prosperity there is.
Not once has it inspired us with
that old. but renewed. faith which
We must have if we are to keep
democracy when almost all the
world has lost it.
Believe me, that faith is in our
hearts. We believe III our Amer

divided within herself into dis
cordant, antagonist groups. Her
rich men fought with her poor
men. Labor rose up against
capital. The government took the
side. first of one. then of the
other. The whole nation was
riddled with politics; nothing
could be accomplished. Then
many of her people embraced
communism. In 1887, when her
very life depended upon the pro-
duction of airplsnes, France
could produce only so military
planes per month.
This unrest and dissension in
France had its origin in the
World War and in the world
wide depression of 1929.
We in America were dislocated
by the World War and shaken by
the depression. We, too, inherited
from that depression conflicts
and discords such as the Ameri-
can people had rarely expert
enced before that discord arose
from the collapse of our indus
trial system.
Let us look at this problem
not with the starry eyes of
theorists. but with the eyes of
American citizens, who had been
accustomed to making and
building things.
When our Nation is growing,
when our opportunities are many
and varied. when there is a de-
mand for work and for capital,
then there is a self elf-generating
magic of creation among us.
Then each mans interest
furthers each others interest;
the profit of each makes the
profit of all and opens up new
opportunities for profit to other
men. Each job makes more jobs.
Cites the Example
OF Glass Company.
For instance, have in mind a
particular company that has de-
veloped new kind of glass. This
glass can be used in the auto
mobile industry. If certain tech
nical problems are solved this
company will make the glass and
make profit.
Suppose that this happens.
Then men are employed to build
large factory. When the factory
is built. men are employed to run
it. People buy this product for
their cars. The company that
built the plant has earned a
profit.
Now who loses from that
process? Who is the loser? Why.
no one is the loser. Everybody
gains.
Of course, if the owner of the
factory tries to take too big a
profit, that would slow down the
process. His market would fail,
and his profit vanish.
But here is a secret of industry
"a secret that the New Deal has
never known. If the owner of
that factory is confident of the
future, if he is reasonably GER
tain that he can make a reason
able profit next year, and the
next. and the next. he is more apt
to be satisfied with low profit.
II is inevitable that when the
owner is uncertain of the future
and does not know what will hap
pen next year. what new taxes
there will be. or what new restric-
tlonS. he decides 10 take all he
can while the taking is good.
When Business Is Growing
Men Help Each Other.
Here is the point I want to
make. When business is expand
ing that way. every mans efforts
help every other man. Even the
profit that the owner makes, if
reasonable. helps other people be-
cause, if business is expanding,
that profit is at once reinvested
in another enterprise that makes
new jobs.
But look at what happens
