Republican Conven-
ton at Philadelphia
Opens

Herold E. Stassen made the
keynote speech which was a
masterpiece.
Let us announce here and now
that We have faith in this future
of this nation and its way Of life"
he shouts early in his speech, and
this lifts the convention to cheers,
that are repeated again and again
as he calls for national prepared
hess, defense against the fifth
column Orators and spices) and
for advances in domestic economic
welfare and governmental effective
ness and integrity.
"But there is a second and even
greater responsibility that is
the duty of deciding quietly and
calmly who shall exercise the
leadership Of this nation in the
next four years. ."
"By the politically timed ap-
pointment on the eve of this con-
vention of two men of our party
(Col. Frank Knox of Chicago as
Secretary of Navy and Henry L.
Stimson of New York as Secretary
of War; to those two cabinet
posts, the President made an elev-
enth hour confession of his failure
in his national defense Administra-
tion."
"By the politically time ap
pointment on the eve Of this con-
vention of two men of our party
to two Cabinet posts, the President
made an eleventh hour confession
of his failure in his national de-
fense Administration"
eve are pleased that the pros
pect of our convention caused this
sudden Improvement over New
Deal incompetence and it is only
regrettable that we cannot change
the entire Cabinet and the man
who heads it with equal abrupt
ness"
i at is a fact today, well known
| by the heads of every other gov
ernment in the world, and belated-
ly coming to the knowledge of the
people of this nation, that we are
tragically unprepared. We are too
woefully weak to give the Allies
the material assistance this nation
wants to give them. We are sad
ly wanting in the state of our de-
fenses of this hemisphere"
"The saddiest chapter of the last
four years has been that the Ma
tional Administrator instead of
keeping it's eyes, statesmanllke,
upon the welfare of the people or
this nation, has turned its politi-
cal gaze upon a third term. This
Unamerican desires :. has de-
stroyed craftsmanship"
'For too long a time our leaders
have strutted down the avenues OF
the world jauntily knocking chips
off shoulders without even pre-
pairing to raise our arms in self
defense. For too long time we
have talked boldly of quarantinlng
aggressors in order to protect
other nations and now find we are
not even prepared to protect our
selves. For too long time, our for-
eign plicy has been one of a big
noise and a little stick.
1--WE need again a calm, reso-
lutte voice and a big stick :"

Henry Ford Launch
ed a "National
Youth Movement"

To $4,000 other industralists and
manufacturers in all parts of the
United States he mailed a booklet
pointing out the opportunity open
to every employer of labor to help
in solving "our gravest national
problem-youth unemployment"
"Of all the opportunities con-
fronting our country today" Mr..
Ford said. zone of the most i'm
portant is the creation of openings
for unemployed youth.
ITO an extent impossible to ex-
aggerate, the future character of
our American government, institu-
tions and ideals-depends on what
is done about this opportunity to-
day.
GAS I see it, American business
and industrial management-have
ready at hand the means of ap-
proach this opportunity construct
lively.
Municipal, State and other gov
ernmental agencies cannot attack
it effectively. They doubtless have
done their best but at most their
measures are temporary; they can
do nothing of substantial and last
ing good. Any project that tends
to decrease youths initiative and
stultify self-reliance is unwhole.
some for youth and the nation
Widespread action by private
business and industrial manage
ment, each industrial concern start
ing five boys or twenty Or a hun
dred, according to its ability, in a
trade school or on the land, On a
basis that permits youth to retain
it's self-respect, will abolish youth
unemployment at once.
II have a deep faith that, If
each business and industry will
make it part of its business pro-
gram to do what it can to create
opportunity for youth to get start
ed-the problem will vanish"
At both Camp Legion and Camp
Willow Run is a group of 65 boys.
Before coming to camp, all were
unemployed. Most of them are
sons of dead Or disabled veterans.
Each group has a 320-acre tract
provided by Mr.. Ford to work on.
They are taught the fundamentals
of agriculture and plant, cultivate
and harvest many different kinds
of garden crops. The products are
sold at wayside stands. From the
revenue the camp operating ex'
penses are paid. The boys sleep in
tents, have their meals in a special
mess-hall and each receives So q
day. At the end of the season the
cash balance remaining after pay.
ment of operating expenses Is
divided among the boys equally.
Last season each boy received $128
in addition to his wages.
The boys govern themselves and
maintain camp discipline through
officers chosen by themselves from
their own number. After the sea-
son ends, those who wish may
enter the Henry Ford Trade
School, or get jobs in Ford
factories.
