Roosevelt Slakes
Higher 7age Plea
Says Auto Manufacturers
Must Do Better; Lists
Issues of Campaign
DETROIT, Oct. lS.-iAssert-ing
he was not afraid of the ver
dict. President Roosevelt tonight
defined what he called the out
standing Issue of the campaign:
"Shall the social and economic
security and betterment of the
masses of the American people
be maintained and strengthened
or not?" " "
Speaking from the east lawn
of the city hall to thousands of
persons Jammed around a flag
ornamented platform. ; the presi
dent expressed a belief that the
people of America on November Z
would ask: for continuance of the
"present type of government In
preference to one that "puts dol
lars above human rights.' -'
In the -heart of the country's
vast automotive industrial dis
trict, he asserted 1938 promises
to be the second largest year of
automobile production In history.
but added that the industry, and
every other industry, still needs
improvement in relationship with
employes.
Most Increase Pay
"It Is my belief," he said, "that
the manufacturers of automobiles
and the manufacturers of many
other necessary commodities
must, by planning, do far more
than they have done to date to
increase the yearly earnings of
those who work for them."
Referring early in his address
to the problem of relief, he ar
gued that relief and work relief
provided by federal funds "saved
American humanity, and - saved
also the solvency of cities and
states in every part of the na
tion." . ;
The chief executive came to De
troit after an all-day stumping
trip of 'southern Michigan cities.
wnich traced In reverse much of
yesterday's political trail ot Gov
ernor Alt M. Landon of Kansas,
nis republican opponent.
Depressions Needless
The president said he could f
not accept the conclusion ot
"many republican leaders that
major depressions are Inevitable."
and to a republican leadership
which ran the government from
1921 to 1933 he attributed a
"major catastrophe."
On the question of automotive
employment, - the president said
that certain steps already had
been, taken 'toward spreading
work more evenly through the
year and toward raising thd year
ly pay envelope in Detroit and
other centers of the industry from
1600 or S700 a year to more than
11,000.
But he said these steps were
not enough and then asserted
manufacturers must plan to boost
yearly incomes of employes.
After listing steps .by which he
contended the new deal had
helped solve the problem of "hu
man relief" Mr. Roosevelt said
that dollars spent on the works
program, in CCC camps, drought
relief, cattle and hog buying and
processing were spent "again and
again."
