"Tho first thing wo need In this
country, as President Roosevelt to
well set forth In that great message
which told whnt ho had boon trying
to do for the American people Is
equality of opportunity for ovory
citizen. No man should have less,
mid no man ought to nsk fo" uny
more. Kqunllty of opportunity Is
tho real objoct of om laws nud In
