Prof. Vlnlng ald: "There were atnlwert men In Canada. Scotchmen. Englishmen. But the ambition of those men was commer cial gain. It waa not the lure of gold alone that brought th migra tion from th Atlantic ahore. In th covered wagon them waa the pio neer mother. That la your answer. "With her ahe brought religion, music and the love of horn life. In many wagons, burled In their native dirt, young fruit tree were carried. When their root found life In the Oregon soil, so did liberty." So today, Mr. Vlnlng decle-ed. It is not sufficient for the National Re covery Administration to complete Its cod. The aplrlt of the plonew, who shared his laat crust of bread, -nust be aroused again In the American people, before th nation can suc ceed.
