He added that rigid economy
must rule in the Government"
As on previous occasions, Mr..
Truman expressed deep concern
over the price level. He warned
against the "selfishness" that, he.
stressed, is ''the main factor that
can weaken our economy"
With Government restrictions re-
moved, those controlling prices have
a moral responsibility" to keep
them In check, the President de-
clared. He said many prices now
are unnecessarily high" and must
be brought down if our entire econ
omy is not to suffer"
Most OF the Presidents address
was devoted to domestic affairs, but
he renewed his advocacy Of strong
backing for the United Nations,
which he held out as the only hope
for lasting peace.
Calls for Strong Defenses.
Bespeaking anew bipartisan sup
port for American foreign policy,
Mr.. Truman said this policy must
not be wrecked on the rocks OF
partisanship'
While working for peace, however,
Mr.. Truman emphasized, the coun-
try must not permit its defenses to
be weakened.
1T is necessary that we maintain
sufficient military strength to con-
vince the world that we intend t.
meet our responsibilities" he said.
The President by indirection re-
ferred to the tension with Russia
and his call for assistance to Greece
and Turkey.
Recalling Jefferson's advocacy OF
the Monroe Doctrine as instru-
ment for protesting "atrocious
violations of the rights of nations, =
Mr.. Truman declared that this
country has declared protest
against such breeches. and I'VE must
make that protest effective by aid
ing those peoples whose freedoms
are endangered by foreign pressures. "
I'VE must take positive stand
he asserted. 1T is no longer enough
merely to say we don't want war.
We must act In time-ahead OF
time-to stamp out the smouldering
beginning of any conflict that may
threaten to spread over the world"
Mr.. Sullivan, In his address, de-
clared:
TN front of us today we have a
leader-tested and triumphant. He
is prepared to meet the challenge
of abundance In our atomic age
confident because of the peoples
confidence in his program-eager to
see and do the right because his
hopes have an abiding kinship with
the peoples hopes.
Therein lies our strength to fight
and therein lies our will to win.
THE triumph of President Tru-
man in the case of peace and human
welfare will be the triumph of the
Democratic party in the days
ahead"
Although Robert E> Hannegan,
national chairman OF the party, is
in Florida recuperating from a re-
cent illness, he sent message say
ing that by the sure hand of Presi-
dent Truman America Is guided
OH the straight course of her high
destiny and the whole people OF
America are with the man at the
helm"
Mrs. Chase Going Woodhouse,
executive director of the women's
division of the party, told the gath
ering that many women will appear
in refurbished clothes On Easter
Instead of new finery because:
We don't like Republican prices
and we are remembering what the
Republicans said last June when
they refused to listen to the wise
advice OF our President on prices"

Republicans Criticize,
Democrats Praise
President S Speech
BY the Assoeiossd Press


Republicans found plenty to crit
icize in President Truman's Jeffer-
son Day speech last night, in con-
trast to his other addresses since
the November election.
But Senator johnson, Democrat.
of Colorado, commented. 1T viii
be Truman by acclamation in 184S." !"
Senator Sparkman, Democrat, OF
Alabama, likewise had no doubt
that Mr. Truman will be our nomi-
nee and with the recent trend con-
tinuing he viii be winner"
I'm in complete accord with
everything he said," Senator Spark
man added. I'm delighted that he
has given official sanction to a bal
ance of the budget. The few cuts
the Republicans have voted in his
budget to date are not substantial
but appear to be- spite work
Crisis Technique"
Other congressional comment:
Senator KEN, Republican, Of Mis-
souri-"Is the President attempting
to- make political capital of the
Nations foreign policy? He appears
to be student Of the crisis TECH
nioue of his predecessor. His dis
cussions of the budget indicate that
he has already forgotten the elec-
ton of last November
Senator Wiley, Republican, OF
Wisconsin-"It was a good Jeffer-
son Day speech. But it contained
no comfort for the taxpayers, no
definite labor policy and praise only
for those who agreed with him."
Senator Holland, Democrat, of
Florida-'The President struck a
fine continuing note with reference
to the bipartisan foreign policy.
I'm happy he did not bring in his
personal politics and not great
deal of party politics on domestic
matters He makes the Nation a
good President"
Congress Concurrence Seen.
Senator Millikin, Republican, of
Colorado, chairman of the Senate
Finance Committee-"Congress has
studied the Presidents budget and
has concluded substantial reduc-
ton below his estimates can be
made, and that substantial re-
duction in taxes and the public
debt are possible at the present
time. In my judgment, Congress
will proceed on this theory, barring
unforeseen developments
Senator Butler, Republican, Of
Nebraska, chairman of the Sem
ate Public Lands Committee-"He
doesn't want partisanship in the
handling of foreign affairs, but
foreign affairs have become so
tangled with domestic affairs 1t is
difficult to draw the line between
what is foreign and what is domes-
tic. I think he has injected plenty
of politics into the suggestion that
we do not reduce taxes at this time.
I suspect he would like to have it
delayed in hope a Democratic Con-
gress might make the reduction in
stead of Republican Congress"
Thomas Pledges Support.
Senator Thomas, Republican. of
Oklahoma-"In my opinion he is on
safe and sure ground and I per-
sonally will support that sort Of
economic program. The people will
be glad to hear the budget is bal
apced now I will vote to save all
the money We can in appropriations
and not vote to reduce taxes"
Senator Ecton, Republican, of
Montana-'I think the sooner we
can reduce taxes all around 1t Is
going to help materially in holding
down our high cost Of living.

A group of tenants in the Park
Royal apartment hotel, 4OO6 South

up to $50 per cent have been an
