1 ionaires from the defense effort with the warning:
 No person should try, or to be allowed, to get rich out of this pro- gram; and the principle of tax pay | mentS in accordance with ability to pay should be constantly before our eyes to guide our legislation"
 MT. Roosevelt devoted virtually his entire 4,000-word address to the urgent problems of international re- lations and defense. But once again he reiterated his pledge that the administration in the coming years does not propose to sacrifice the so- cial gains achieved during the years since his first inauguration on March 4, 1893.
 "As men do not live by bread alone they do not fight by armaments alone" he said. 'The nation takes great satisfaction and much strength from the things which have been done to make its people conscious of their individual stake in the pre- servation of democratic life in Amer lea.
 No Time to Stop Certainly this is no time to stop thinking about the social and econ- omic problems which are the root cause of the social revolution which is today a supreme factor in the world"
 MT. Roosevelt outlined the social objectiveS of his domestic program for his historic third terms as in- cluding:
 We should bring more citizens under the coverage of old age pen sionS and unemployment insurance
 We should widen the opportuni- ties for adequate medical care.
 We should plan 8 better system by which persons deserving or need ing gainful employment may ob- tain it."
 The broad objectives of his ad- ministration, the president said, are: Freedom of speech and expression; 2. Freedom of every person to wor- ship God in his own way; 3. Free dom from want; 4. Freedom from fear.
 But the wars raging and their ef- feet in the new world far overshad- owed the presidents discussion of domestic affairs.
 MT. Roosevelt warned against those who preach "appeasement" and against that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests"
 The menace which prompted his unique" message on the state of the union is urgent, MT. Roosevelt said
 Warning that future of all Amer ican republic is today in serious dan- ger," MT. Roosevelt said there is much loose talk of our immunity from immediate and direct invasion from across the seas"
 Obviously" he said, ''aS long as the British navy retains its power no such danger exists. ..
 But we learn much from the les sons of the past years in Europe - particularly the lesson of Norway whose essential seaports were cap tured by treachery and surprise built up over a series of years.
 "The first phase of the invasion ol this hemisphere would not be the landing of regular troops. The nee essary strategic poinst would be oc- cupied by secret agents and theil dupes-and great number of then are already here, and in Latin America.
 'AS long as the aggreSsor nations maintain the offensive, they-not we will choose the time and the place and the method of their attack.
 That is why the future of al American republics is today in seri- ouS danger.
 MT. Roosevelt reported on the drive to rearm America, and con- felyed that T am not satisfied with the progress thus far made" The difficulty, he said, may have been that the original goal was set too high but regardless, 'our objective is quicker and better results"
 The immediate need, he said, is a swift and driving increase in arma- ment production.
 1ltS IIItII III tIIdI SC OI t4iS p1O gram represent the best in training, ability and patriotism" he said "They are not satisfied with the progress thus far made. None of us will be satisfied until the job is done"
 He concluded the full right ot congress itself at all times on the progress of rearmament, but he conditioned this recognition with the proviso that the national inter est will require that some informa- ton must be kept secret.
 No Quarrels Tolerated MT. Roosevelt sounded an une- quivocal warning that his adminis- tration will not tolerate conflicts between factions in American soci- ety which would delay or endanger a the defense program.
 We must all prepare to make the ; sacrifices that the emergency-as D serious as war itself--demands, the . president said. Whatever stands ir ' the way of speed and efficiency ir defense preparations must give way P to the national need. , "A free nation has the right to ex- ? pect full cooperation from all ] groups A free nation has the right ? to look to the leaders of business, o1 2 labor, and of agriculture to take the lead in stimulating ekort, not
