Wednesday, January 3, 1931 Paye Four LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE, ORE. I ! f. ir ij v ll . 1 fa , . i'n is r it P. R. REQUESTS' CONGRESS TO AIDiRECOVERY ' (OonturOM From On.) The president's address follows: I come before you at the opening of .the regular session of -the 73rd congress, not to make requests for special or detailed Items of legisla tion: I come, rather, to counsel with you. who. llko myself, nave ibeeu se lected to carry out a. mandate of the whole -people, -In order that without partisanship you and. I may co-operate to continue the restoration of our . , national well4lng- and, equally 1m . portent, to build on the ruins of the past a now structure designed better ' to meet the present problems of mod- : em 'civilization, ' , . Now that we are definitely In the m process of recovery, linos have been rightly drawn between those of whom this recovery means a return to oia methods una ' the ' number of theso people- Is small and those for whom recovery means a reform of many old methods.1 a permanent readjustment ' of many of our ways of thinking and therefore of many of our soslal and economlo arrangements. - Civilisation can not go back: civ ilization must not stand still. We have' undertaken new methods. It Is our task to perfeot, to Improve, to alter when necessary, but In all canes to go 'forward.- .To consolidate what : we are doing, .to make our economic and social struoture capable of deal jng with modern life 1 the Joint task of the legislative, the Judicial, and the executive branches of tho 'na tional government. Without regard to party, the over- i whelming majority . of our people seek a greater opportunity for hu manity to prosper and find happl ness. They recognize that human welfaro has . not Increased and docs not inorenne through mere material ism and iuxury, but that It floes -pro-gross through integrity .unselfishness, responsibility and Justice., In the post fcur months, as n ' re sult of our action, we have demanded of many dtl-eons that they ourronder certain licensee to do as they ploase In tholr business relationships; but wo havo asked this In oxchango for the protection which tlio state eon give against exploitation by their fel low men or by combinations of their . fellow men. ' ' '' 1 I congratulate this congreas upon tho courage, tho earnestness and the offloloncy with wluch you met itho crisis at the special session. ; j , : Tho credit of the government has been fortified by drastic reduction in the cost of Its permanent agencies through the economy act. ' With the two-fold purpose, of strengthening the wholo financial structure and of arriving eventually at a medium of exchange which will have over the years less variable pur- j chasing and debt paying power for our people than that of the past I have used tho authority granted mo to purohaw alt American produced gold and silver and to buy additional cold In the world markets. Careful Investigation and constant study prove that In the matter of foreign exchange rates, certain of our sister nations find thenuolves so handicapped by Internal and other conditions that they feel unable at this time to enter Into stabilization cMBCUBslons based on permanent and world-wide objectives, The overwhelming majority of the banks, both national and state, which re-opened last spring,- are In sound condition and have been brought within the protection of fedora! In surance. Tn the case of those banka which were not permitted to re-open, nearly COO million dollars of frozen deposits are being restored to the de positors through the assistance of the national government. We have made great strides toward the objectives of the national indus trial recovery act;, for not only having several millions of our unemployed been restored! to work, but Industry Is organizing Itself with a greater understanding that reasonable profits can be earned while at the Borne time protection can be assured to guaran tee to labor adequate pity and proper conditions of work. Child labor Is abolished. Uniform standards of hours and wages apply today to 06 per cent of Industrial employment within the field of the national industrial recovery act.; We seek the definite end of pre venting combinations In furtherance of monopoly and) In restraint of trade, while at the same time wo seek to prevent ruinous rivalries within In dustrial groups. ... Though the machinery, hurriedly devised, may need readjustment from time to time, nevertheless I think you will agree with me that we have created a permanent feature of our modernized Industrial struc ture and that It will continue under the supervision but not the arbitrary dictation of government lUclf. You recognized last spring that tho rruvtt ftorinus 7nrt of the dp burden affected those who stood la dhnger of losing their farms and their bomes I nm glad to tell you tliat refinanc ing In both of these cases la proceed ing with good success, ... But agriculture had suffered from more thun Its debts.. Actual ox port -enco with the operation of the agri cultural adjustment act leads to my belief that thus far tho experiment of seoklng a balance between pro duction and consumption Is succeed r lng and has made progress entirely In line with reasonable expectations toward the restoration of farm prices to parity. I continue In my conlvctlon that Industrial progress andi prosperity can only be attained by bringing tho purchasing power of that portion of our population which In one form or another Is dependent upon agri culture up to a level which will re storo ft proper balance between every ; section of the country and every form of work, . .1. Today we are creating heavy obli gations to start the work and because of the great unemployment needs of the moment. I look forward, how ever, to the time In the not distant future, when annual appropriations, wholly covered by current revenue, will enable tho work to proceed with a national plan. Such a national plan will. In a generation or two, return many times tho money spent on It; more Import ant, It will eliminate the use of In efficient tools, conserve and increase natural resources, prevent waste, and enable millions of our people to take better advantage of the opportunities which God has given our country. I cannot, unfortunately, present to you a picture of complete optimism regarding world affairs. The delegation representing the United States has worked In close co-operation with the other Ameri can republics assembled at Monte video to mako tbat conference an outstanding success. We have, I hope, mode It clear to our neighbors that we seek with them future avoidance of territorial expansion and of Interference by one nation In the internal affairs of an other. , : , Furthermore, all of us are seeking 1 the restoration of commerce In ways which will preclude the building up of large favorable trade balances by any one nation at the expense of trade debits on the -part of other nations. In otlior parts of -tho world, how over, fear of immediate or future ag gression and with this the spending of vast sums on armament, and the continued! building up of defensive trade barriers, prevent any great pro gress In peace or trade agreements. I have made It clear that the United States cannot take part in political arrangements In Europe but that we stand ready to co-operate at any time in practicable measures on a world basis looking to Immediate reduction of armaments and the low ering of the barriers against com merce. I. expect to report to you later In regard to debta owed tho government and people of this country by the governments and peoples of other countries. . . , . . i ' - Returning to homo problems, wo I havo been Bhocked by many notorious ' examples of injuries done our citizens ' by persons or groups who have been ' living off their neighbors by tho use ' Continued on Papre Six) I PIMPLES HEALED 6kin made dearer. smoother, finer, (he easy Resinol way For free sample of (jiiumen ana aoip wnie io Kesinol, Dept. 62, Dallo.,Md.
