Funds Must Not
Be Homstrunq

If the defense effort is not
carried forward on an orderly
basis. it just won't work. and
we will step right into world
war three. And it can't be
carried forward on an orderly
basis without the necessary ap-
preparations we need. And these
appropriations should not be
hamstrung with fool legislative
riders. There is no use making
the appropriations. if you tie it
up so that it can't be used.
am here to tell you that I
am not going to stand for it..
/ am in a position to cause you
some trouble if you do it. And
I am not running for office,
either.
The defense program that
has been put before the Con-
gress is well within the economic
capacity of this Nation. That
budget is a tight budget, and
an honest one. To win the cold
war, Congress must give what
we ask.
All this talk about it being
an insupportable burden and
bringing on national bank
ruptcy is nothing in the world
but poppycock. I don't think
you believe a word of it. I don't.
hope the country and this
Congress will give the armed
forces the kind Of support they
deserve and that they must
have to win this cold war.
The armed forces are doing q
magnificent job. but in the final
analysis they will be no stronger
than the support they get from
the home front. The response
bility rest with the Congress, as
we'll as it does with the Presi-
dent.
The part of the job that must
be done is up to all of us. I
hope that every one Of you here
tonight will do your best to help
me see that our fighting men
and our world defense program
are given the adequate support
Ghich they deserve.

The fire started during the

"A series of explosions punctuated
the spread of the flames. Fire
men said the blasts came from
air compressor tanks that power

Thousands of spectators were
attracted by the huge, spiraling
cloud of smoke. Gordon MacRae,
Ray Bolger, Burt Lancaster. Vir-

watching the fire at close range.
The fire started on New York

Real Hordships
Only to Fighters

Very few people have suffered
any real hardship because of
this great emergency. Only the
men who have done the fighting
in Korea have suffered real
hardships.
So have their families. Their
families have been real suffer-
ers under the conditions we
have had to face. And you
mustn't forget that.
AS I told you last year. we
are here at a fine banquet, we
are enjoying ourselves and we
are telling how good we are.
But there are men in the field
who are working in the mud,
who are facing artillery fire,
who are sending artillery fire.
There are men on the sea, who
are flying and bombing the
back places in Korea, who are
trying to bring this thing to q
conclusion.
You must not do anything
that will cause those men to get
shot in the back.
Certainly the rest of us, in
gratitude to them, ought to be
willing to carry through on the
job they have given us a chance
to do.
Our mobilization program
has gained tremendous momen-
tum. That program cannot be
turned off and on like a water
faucet for reasons of political
expediency. We have men in
and out of Congress who played
petty politics and hamper our
efforts to obtain world peace.

That is what we have been
trying to do. We have had our
ups and downs, but we have
come long way. Our armed
forces are stronger, our defense
production is rolling on large
scale. We have made remarka-
BILE progress in flrming up our
defense arrangements with
other countries. both in Europe
and in Asia.
We have made enough prog
reSS so that the path of an ag-

the chances of a third world
war are just that much less.
Now I spent seven years, and
some months, in the hardest

the world and to prevent a
third world war.
And I believe we are on the

chance to listen to that great
and splendid speech by the

ing successfully.
And it is necessary now, more
than ever in the history of the
country. because of our position
in the world as the great power
of the free nations of the
world. We have the leadership
whether we like it or not. and
we must assume it.
No President ever had such
able people and such fine Or
ganization to help him deal with
foreign affairs as the one 1 have
now. The Secretary of State
and the Secretary of Defense I
don't think have ever been
equaled in those positions in my
memory.
I have a Secretary of the
Army. and Secretary of the
Navy, and Secretary Of the Air
Force who are as efficient as
any three men could possibly be.
The Joint Chiefs Of Staff,
headed by Gen. Bradley, with
Gen. Collins for the Army. Gen.
Vandenberg for the Air Force
and Gen. Fechteler for the
Navy. have never been in bet
ter hands.
Admiral Fechteler-I'm sorry
II made a mistake. But it
goes just the same. He would

as he is as an admiral.
