UNITED STATES PAYS TRIBUTE TO WASHINGTON (Continued From Page 1) whose equal we shall not again President Roosevelt as "a statesman In our lives" in presenting him for the honorary degree.

The Governor compared the economic condition of the country at the time Roosevelt took office with the crises mc-t by Presidents Washington and Lincoln, in his address at Founder's Day ceremonies at the university. "Every grave crisis in the affairs of our nation has brought forth a great leader," Earle said. "At such crises, wjien the hopes and fortunes of our people were at the lowest ebb, some one man has nl- vars emerged to lead us on to a greater development, to a.fuller life for our citizens." Roosevelt Proud to be President President Roosevelt asserted he was "proud to be the head of a government that has sought to make a substantial contribution to the cause of education, even in a period of economic distress." He noted that these efforts included appropriations of more than 000,000 to local communities for schools, colleges and library buildings, as well as projects for adult education and other purposes. Besides freedom of thought, he listed two other "qualities of a true education." One, he said, is a "sense of fair play among a realization of their "essential dependence on one another." The other is a "sense of equality among when they are dealing with things of the "Inequality may linger in r.he world of material things," he said, "but great music, great literature and the wonders of science are and should be open to all." Refrains From Quoting- Washington Although referring to George Washington, Mr. Roosevelt said he would "break a century old precedent" and refrain from quoting from the flrst president lest "some captious critic might search the library of Congress to prove by other quotations that George Washington was in favor of Just the "More than this," he added, breaking precedent once more, I do not intend to commence any scn- t.nce with these George Washington had been alive today' or 'If Thomas Jefferson had been alive today' or 'If Alexander Hamilton had been alive today' or 'If Abraham Lincoln had been alive the prendventurc of a doubt he would have or, perhaps, "Suffice It, therefore, to say that resident Washington pointed out on many occasions and in many practical ways that a broad and cos.nopolttan education In every stratum of society is a necessary factor In any free nation governed through a democratic system."
