 spirit and determination alone, but in the broad conduct of the war in all it's phases"
 We cannot wage this war in a defensive spirit the President said promising that when U. s. power and resources are fully mobilized i've shall carry the attack against the enemy we shall hit him and hit him again wherever and when ever we can reach him."
 We must keep him far from our shores, for we intend to bring this battle to him on his own home grounds" the president said.
 He pointed out that while Ameri- can forces must be used on world wide basis, some of the operations will be defensive. others offensive.
 If any of our enemies, from Eu- rope or from Asia, attempt long, range raids by suicide squadrons' of bombing planes. they will do so only in the hope of terroriz:ng our people and disrupting our morale" he said.
 People Not Afraid
 Our people are not afraid of that. We will pay this price with a will"
 To those who ask when will this war end?" the president replied:
 '"The end of militarism in Ger many and Italy and Japan.
 Most certainly we shall not settle for less"
 Tn outlining his reproduction program, the President said every existing armament producing facil- ity" must be strained to the utmost, every available plant and tool must be converted to war production be- cause modern methods of warfare make it task, not only of shooting and fighting, but an even more ur- gent one of working and producing.
 "The superiority of the united na- tions in munitions and ships must be overWhelming-so overwhelming that the Axis nations can never hope to catch up with us," he said.
 Supply All Nations
 This overwhelming superiority of armament must be sufficient to sup ply the armed forces of the United Nations, as well as ito put weapons of war at the proper time into the hands of those men in the conquer ed nations who stand ready to seize the first opportunity to revolt against their German and Japanese oppressors, and against the trai- tors in their own ranks"
 "As we get guns to the patriots in those lands, they too will fire shots heard round the world"
 The raising of American produc- tion goals will mean "the disloca- ton of the lives and occupations of millions of our own people," the President said. but the change-over to virtually total war production must be done-and we have un- dertaken to do it." .-..-.
 The president said civilian use of certain strategic materials such as steel, copper, rubber, aluminium, zinc and tin will have to be cut further and still further-and, in many cases, completely eliminated'.
 Warning that i've must guard against complacency" in the battle to halt the "bloodstained course of conquest" by the Japanese, the Ger mans and the Italians, the Presi- dent said i've must not underrate the enemy"
 Cruel. Ruthless
 "He is powerful and cunning-and cruel and ruthless. He will stop at nothing which gives him a chance to kill and destroy.
 For many years he has prepared for this very confict-planning, plotting, training, arming, fighting.
 We have already tasted defeat. We may suffer further setbacks, we must face the fact of a hard war, a long war, a bloody war, costly war"
 The President called on the na- tion to guard against defeatism, to guard against division at home and among all the other united nations and he called for vigilance against racial discrimination.
 Speaking of his conferences of the last two weeks with British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, Presi- dent said he and the British war leader understood each other, our motives and our purposes"
 Together, during the past two weeks, we have faced squarely the major military and economic prob lens of this greatest World War"
 Owing to the circumstances under which the United States was brought into the war on the same side as the British, the Russians, the Chinese and the Dutch, the President said:
 We are fighting today for secur- ity. for progress and for peace. not only for ourselves, but for all men, not only for one generation, but for all generations"
 Cleanse World of Evils
 "We are fighting to cleanse the world of ancient evils, ancient ills"
