New Deal Repe+itions Offered

My opponent talks once again of jobs in
the future, but he offers us nothing except a
repetition Of the New Deal policies which failed
for eight straight years
This administration took office when the
worldwide depression was nearly four years
old. No previous depression in 100 years of our
history had lasted more than five years
Yet Mr. Roosevelt contrived to make that
depression last II years-twice as long as any
depression in century.
He had unlimited power spent $5S, 900 OOO,-
900; vet in March, 1910, there were still TO-
100000 unemployed. Under the New Deal. il
took war to get jobs.
We dare not we must not risk the future of
o our country in the hands of those who never
succeeded in eight peacetime years in even
approaching full employment We need to
sweep away the strangling mass of rules and
regulations, of petty bureaucratic interferences.
We need TO sweep away the old dank.
wretched atmosphere of hostility and abuse
We need once more to let the American people
industry, labor and agriculture-know that
their government believes with them in the
American tradition Of opportunity for ALL
we need an administration that cares more
about official business than it does about big
government We need an administration that
will not be afraid of peace-that will want to
bring our fighting men home when victory is
achieved-and will keep its promises to do So
And that's another reason WHY it's time for
a change

New Leadership Needed

These are no partisan detectives. They are
In truth the detectives of the American people.
They can never be attained under the tired and
quarrelsome administration that has been in
Office for II long years.
They can only be attained under new,
vigorous administration that comes fresh from
the people.
That's why all over the country the people
are saying it's time for change.
America is determined TO win a speedy and
overwhelming victory in this war All of us
have perfect confidence in our military and
naval commanders.
But this war cannot be won alone upon
the battlefronts. 1t must also be won at home.
And each Of US must play his part.
AS recently as Sept. 1, Gen. Eisenhower
renewed his prophecy that Germany could be
beaten in 1914 if every one at home would do
his part Yet last Thursday Mr.. Roosevelt
decided to tell Us that the war had still long
way to 80.
What has happened in two months toscan-
eel Gen. Eisenhower's prediction? Mr. Roose-
welt has not told us the whole story but part
of il we know.

CONGRESS Abused, Insu|+ed

It can never be the product of secret agree
ments worked out in secret conferences be-
tween two or three rulers. For the United
States, this great effort must have the support
and understanding of all our people. And 1t
must, under our Constitution, have the support
of the peoples representatives in Congress-
Yet, Mr. Roosevelt, year after year, has
systematically abused and insulted the mem
bers of Congress- Having already alienated his
own leaders in Congress- he has now gratui-
tously insuted the Republican leaders Of the
Senate and the House.
Those leaders join with me in an effort to
lift the program for lasting peace above par
tsanship.
They publicly pledge themselves to support
the program for world peace on which Secre-
tary Hull and have co-operated. But this
harmonious, non-political approach was not
politically profitable to Mr.. Roosevelt, 30
he denounced the Republican members of Con-
gress and accused them Of erecting "A party
spite fence between US and the peace"
The time has come to bring and end to this
name calling and abuse. American participation
in a world organization for peace can only be
built by president and Congress-Repubi-
cans and Democrats alike-working together in
harmony and mutual respect
To achieve that harmony we must have
new chief executive who believes that funda-
mental principle and practices it. That's an
other reason why it's time for change.
When victory Is won, II, 900 900 Americans
will return from our fighting forces. They will
be looking for jobs and opportunities.
They will want to marry 90 to work and
get ahead. Twenty million war workers will be
looking for jobs in peacetime industries
II we are not to betray those who have
fought and worked for victory in this war, we
must have here in America, the land of OPP
portunity. a land of full employment and high
wages, with a rising standard Of living.

Meddling Proves Costly

Here's the report from the front by the
United Press:
THE home front talk about stern treatment
for defeated Germany has inspired bitter and
fanatical resistance among German troops, in
their sector ut least, and the CTS are q little
bitter about II. Sometimes the doughboys, who
are fighting and dying In the mud on this side
of the MoseIle, wish people ut home would quit
announcing what they think should be done
about defeated Germany. Some soldiers said
today that they thought II might be better to
win the war first"
What does this mean? 1t means that the
blood of our fighting men is paying for this
improvised medding which is so much a part
and parcel of the Roosevelt administration
And at the very moment when his own con-
fused incompetence has thus prolonged the war
In Europe, Franklin Roosevelt goes on the
radio and claims for himself the credit for
everything our engineers our war workers, our
industry, our farmers and our fighting sons
have done.
We are advancing and we shall reach our

Servant, Not Master, of People

In the bill of rights they consecrated and
established that dignity OF. man without distinc-
ton of race creed or color.
They believed that man should be free
free to worship after the dictates of his own
conscience, free to live in his own home, to
raise family-free to speak his own mind
without fear or favor, free to get ahead in the
world
They believed that government would be
the servant not the master of the people, Be-
cause they believed these things and built
upon them, this nation has been richly blest
of God
Our people have known hardship but they
have never despaired They have faced great
odds, but they have never known defeat. To
them the difficult is never too difficult. With
them the impossible can be brought to pass.
Let us in this election send a ringing
affirmation to all the world that the love of
freedom is still strong in the hearts of the
American people
Let us register our faith that in America
there is no indispensable man. Let us prove
that free government still lives.
Let us send the thrilling message around
the world that America has changed admins
trations in order to speed victory and ensure
lasting peace-that freedom is the most vital
thing in the world-that we intend to have it
to hold it forever.

goals. Once rid of capricious, personal govern
ment once we give our whole, our united
thoughts to victory, we shall reach Berlin and
Tokyo quicker-with less cost.
Let me make one thing clear Your next
administration will never claim personal or
political profit from the achievements Of the
American people or from the sacrifices Of their
sons and daughters. But 1t will put stop to
the incompetence In Warrington which is cost
ing the lives Of American men and delaying the
day of final victory
The people Of this country are determined
that we shall not again 90 through the heart
aches and sacrifices Of the last three years.
This war must be the last war.
We shall take the lead in the formation of
a world organization to prevent future wars.
And we know that effort can never be the work
of one man or of one nation.

Renewal Of Faith Needed

My opponent has offered no program be-
cause the New Deal has nothing to offer save
more Of the same quareling and vacillation
which has marked its career for IL long years
We can no longer afford the luxury of
government which spends half it's time quar-
reling among itself and the other half quarrel
ing with one segment or another of our people
In the years Immediately ahead, we need
new hands to steer the ship of state steadily
through the balance of the war into quiet
peacetime waters where we can again make
progress. We need to learn how to work to-
gether again in unity
We need dabove all to renew our faith;
faith in the good will of our fellow men regard
less OF race color or creed faith in the lmitless
future of our country
Our nation was founded and built by men
of great faith and good will, who came here to
do great things. They created our institutions
in the image Of their beliefs. First of all they
believed in Almighty God That was the rock
on which they built. They believed in the moral
law they believed in the dignity of man.

Party on Auction Block

1t has been put on the auction block for
sale to the highest bidder, and the highest
bidders are Sidney Hillman's Political Action
Committee and Earl Browder's Communists.
There il only one way for the real members
of the Democratic party to win in this election.
That is to join with Republicans in defeat
ing the New Dealers the Political Action Com
mittee and the Communists
That's why those who believe in our system
of government, Republicans and Democrats
alike, agree that it's time for a change.
In this campaign have set forth a con-
structive program for the years ahead. built
soundly brick by brick.
It shows how we can achieve our detectives

NEW YORK, Nou. 2 fUP)-The teri of
Coz. Deweys speech tonight at Madison
Square Garden:
ALI over the world tonight Americans are
fighting for the right of free men to govern
themselves. Here at home we are waging
political campaign to make secure the liberties
for which they fight.
Openly and in plain words John Bricker
and !, in the name of the Republican Party,
are dedicated to these propositions:
Ito speed total victory and the prompt
return OF our fighting men by putting energy
and competence in Washington behind the
magnificent effort of our military command
2-To provide American leadership in the
world for effective organization among all ma
tons to prevent future wars.
3-To direct all government policies in the
peace-time years ahead to achieving jobs and
opportunity for every American.
To these ends. we shall restore honesty and
integrity to our national government; we shall
put an end to one man rule; we shall unite our
people In teamwork and harmony behind
president and a congress that can and will
work together to realize the limitless promise
of America.

Most Corrupt in History

Never in our history has corruption been so
brazen Never before has president admitted
sponsorship of such scheme.
All this il the inevitable result of too many
years in power-and the desire for perpetual
office.
1t is exactly what every American begin
ming with George Washington and Thomas
jefferson warned against It il inevitable that
it should have produced political leadership
which publicly defines politics a. the science Of
"how who gets what, when and why"
say the young men Of America are not
fighting and dying for these corrupt and de-
cadent practices.
In the name of those men, the American
people will rise up and repudiate that whole
philosophy of government. The time has come
to put an end to government by "who gets
what, when and why"
That's why it's time for a change.
They, the great Democratic party, weak
ened by IL years of one-man rule is being
leased out to men who vote that they owe no
allegiance to that party for it's principles.

Morqen+hau Plan BIunder

Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Churchill held
conference in Quebec. Our secretary of state
was absent. Our secretary of war was absent.
In their stead Mr.. Roosevelt took with him
that master of military strategy and foreign
affairs, the secretary of the treasury, with his
private plan for disposing of the German people
after the war.
The plan was so clumsy that Mr.. Roosevelt
himself finally dropped it-but the damage was
done
The publishing of this plan while everything
else was kept secret was just what the Naz
propagandists needed. That was as good as
10 fresh German divisions
It put fight back into the German army;
1t stiffened the will Of the German nation to
resist. Almost overnight the head-long retreat
Of the Germans stopped. They stood and
fought fanatically.
Here is how the military expert of News
Week described the tragic consequences of this
blunder:
This necromancy ruins Gen. Eisenhowers
campaign Now he finds himself faced by
resistance he never expected and which, In my
opinion, would never have materialized had
Allied political warfare been astute instead of
idiOtic" so SAYS the military expert
