prejudice and incitement to In such a changed situation the president declared fearing democracies which observe the sanctity of treaties and good faith cannot safely be indifferent to international lawlessness any There 1 was a distinct hint of economic sanctions against aggres sor nations in one portion of Mr message "Words may be he said "but war is not the only means of commanding a decent respect for the i opinions of mankind There ate many methods short of war but stronger and more effec tive than mere words of bringing home to aggressor governments the aggregate sentiments of our people" urrrrw or Under modern conditions the president said adequate national defense falls into three categories: 1 Armed forces and defenses strong enough to ward off sudden attack 2 Organization and strategic location of key economic facilities capable of sustained supply for the armed forces 3 Social and economic unity among the people themselves Dictatorship he continued may command the full strength of a regimented nation but in' a de mocracy' united strength can only be had when its people "educated by modern standards to know what is going on and where they are going have conviction that they are receiving as large a share of material success and of human dignity as they have 'a right to receive" "Our nation! program of social and economic reform" he said "is therefore a part of defense as basic as armaments them CONSERVING RESOURCES To this end he on in the past six years administration pol icy has been directed at conserv ing natural resources land wter on a rounder basis strengtnenmg labor and industry putting the banking structure on a sounder basis providing youth with more facilities for work and education imoroving the condition of the aged all designed to promote a greater upity amongthe American people "We have' difficulties true" he said "but we area wiser and tougher nation than 'we were in 1929 or 1932 "Never have there been 1 six years of such far flung internal preparedness in' our history And all thia has been done without any dictator's power to command without conscription of labor or capital without concentration camps and "without a scratch on freedom of speech freedom of the or' the rest of the bill ja ORGE NEW TOOLS To' accomplish this he said it has bien necessary to "forge new tools 7 and some of these tools still need' some machining As an indication that he has in mind 'no new or startling 'leg islation to propose to the con gress the president went have now passed the per iod of internal conflict in the launching of our' program of so cial reform Our energies may now be released to invigorate the processes of recovery in or der to preserve puj reforms and to 'give every man woman who wants to work

The first duty of statesmanship today he declared "is to bring capital and man power do this by main he said using main force they apparently succeed at for the moment However we methods we are com pelled to admit that they have obtained substantial utilization of all their material and resources It or not they Jbave solv ed for a time at least the prob lem of Idle men and idle capital Can we compete with' them by boldly "seeking methods Of putting idle men and idle capital togeth er and at the lame timeremain within our American way of life within bill of rights and within the "bounds of what' is from Ou point of 'view civiliza tion The country suffers he said from "a great unemployment of ECONOMIC SITUATION In this connection he challeng ed stoutly the idea that the na tion jb over burdened with debt and the government is spending more than it can a plain indication that the new deal does not propose to relax its spending policies at this time The current national objective in an economic sense Mr Roose velt said is to push the national income to the eighty billion 'dol lar mark as against an estimated national income this year of sixty billions 1 Given that figure of eighty bil lions he said there would be 1 substantial reduction of unemploy ment and federal revenues from taxation would be sufficient to balance the budget ISCAL POLICY On this question of federal ff cal policy there are Mr Roose velt conceded two schools of thought One would eliminate enough governmental activities and gov ernment expenditures to force an immediate balancing of the budgJ et If congress wants to do that he said congress will have tosc cept the responsibility The other approached he con i States" not as a 60 billion dollar (annual income) country but ap 80 billion dollar country 1 Mr Roosevelt made it quite plain he favored the second school of thougnt "This he said "does not believe that' It (the countryman become an 80 million dollar nation in the' near future if government cuts its operations by one third It is convinced that if we were to try it 'we would invite disaster that we would not long remain even a 60 billion dollar nation" It was a resumption of govern ment spending last spring he eaid which reversed the tide of the recession and he announced it as his conviction that 'the American industry agricul ture and desires the 76th congress to do whatever is neces sary to promote that 80 biulon dollar income REVERTS TO DICTATORS His message concluded as it be on the theme of dictatorship and What it would mean to the United States hear some people say inis is all so complicated There are cer tain advantages in a dictatorship If gets rid of "labor trouble of unemploymeht of wasted motion and of having to do your own thinking? My answer is: yes' but it also gets rid of some other things which Americans intend very definitely to and we still Aitw Awn fhlnkinr' inienajur vtv will cost us taxes and the voluntary: risk of capital to attain some of the practical advantages which other forms of government have acquired a "Dictatorship however Involves costs which the American people will never pay: the cost "of our spiritual values The cost of the blessed right of being able to say what we please The cost of free dom of religion cost of see ing' our capital confiscated The cost of being cast in a concen tration cwnp The cost of being afraid to walk down the street with thO wrong neighbor avoidance of these costs means taxes on my income if avoiding these 'costs means taxes on my estate at my death I would bear those taxes willingly as the price of my breathing and my children wb air a free country AA the price of a living and not a world xn DANGER WITHIN abroad have made in increasingly clear to the Amerij can people that dangers within ara less to be feared than danger without" If therefore a solution of this problem of idle man and idle capital is the price of pre serving our liberty no formless selfish fears can stand tn a I prophesied that this generation of Americans had a rendezvous with destiny Tat prophesy comes true To us 5 much is given more is expected "This will nobiy DEENSE PLANS ARE SUBMITTED BY NAVY BOARD Many New £ir Destroyer Submarine and Mine Bases Urged for Mid Pacific Alaska Atlantic Areas WASHINGTON Jan Secretary of the Navy Swansonsent to congress today for a huge construction program designed to give the ex panding navy more bases and other facilities ashore A report compiled by a special navy board headed by Rear Ad 1 miral Arthur Hepburn advo cated many new air destroyer submarine and mine bases in the mid Pacific Alaska" and At lantic areas 1 The report listed 25 'completely new projects and expansion of facilities at about existing naval stations Some of the ex pansions officials said would give' the navy virtually new establish ments PRODUCES URORE 'Publication of the document produced 'a furore at the navy department because some officers felt the report contained such vital defense plans it should have been kept secret So great was the anxiety that the report tempo rarily was withdrawn from re porters It subsequently was Re leased?
