Second was the "Expense" of the New Deal and here Mr. Peterson contrasted thie promised 25 per cent cut in government costs with the tremendous rise which followed the New Deal.

Third W'3S unemployment. Recovery, said Mr. Peterson, could not be claimed with 11,000.000 men still 113) employed and relici costs larger than ever before. Agriculture was the fourth issue said that the record admindiscussed by Mr. Peterson, and he istrations thus far in the history of the U.

And he came himself to meet me, In that way so hard to tread, And with Jesus arm to lean on Could I have one doubt or dread?
