told' a cheering c r o w d ; In; the

to prevent the proscription of any

that "a great majority or junen-

wants." -
Thousands of persons lined tbe
streets, jamming the sidewalks
and slowing his motorcade from
the Mott -Haven station to the
coliseum. - "
WUlkie said that In New York
where 7S per cent of u are of
foreign descent," people knew
that the greatest hope for all
groups "Is to make a prosperous
America.
He said that oppression against
alaasee always has - grown from
