New Haven, Conn.—In the first pub lic address he has delivered since the recent election, Colonel Roosevelt de clared at the annual banquet of the chamebr of commerce here that he was a radical who “moat earenstly desired to see a radical program carried out by conservatives.” He wanted to see great reforms car ried out not by the men who will profit by them, but by the men who will lose by them, he said. He wanted men to have a fair start in the race, he de clared, another time; he did not want the slow man to win. Colonel Roosevelt was greeted cor dially by a gathering of 600 represen tatives of the business and commercial interests and the professions of the state The banquet had more than ordinary significance through the presence of the guest, who recently was in contro versy with Judge Simeon E. Baldwin, governor-elect, who had been invited to attend. Judge Baldwin was not present and the place assigned to him at the guests’ table bore mute evi dence of his absence. Colonel Roosevelt was escorted from New York by a committee of the chamber, and upon his arrival at the station a large and enthusiastic crowd was waiting. With a wave of his hand the colonel acknowledged their greeting, and with a hearty laugh and happy remark to those who reached forth to shake his hand he edged his way through the crowd to an automo bile. Colonel Roosevelt was driven to the home of Colonel I. M. Ullman, president of the chamber of commerce, where friendB were waiting to greet him. From there, later, he went to the banquet hall.
