GREAT ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT (Continued From Page One) up equality of opportunity among nations. ,. Further, important trade agree ments were counted necessary for the world's enduring peace; to this end the United States is using its influence to open up the trade channels of the world, so that no nation needs to gain these by foixe of arms. He emphasized that tne leadership' of the United States would be weakened if this nation becomes "a dog in " the manger ". Reference was made to the strengthening, of our national de tense in the light of continuing world uncertainty by appropria tions for the army "and navy, but based oil common sense. Finally, coming to s the budget, the president's announcement that this would be increased only, by army and navy appropriations was greeted by , rounds of applause. More applause followed the next sentence: "Practically all others show a reduction." But, after the applause . ceased there was? the re minder, "You can't eat your cake and have it too. Therefore the most we" can do to reduce appro priations is by asking Congress to levy additional taxes to meet nec- essa.ry expenditures." Beyond the army and navy lies the ultimate defence the general welfare. In speaking of the prob lem of unemployment, there was the statement that immediate needs as far as the federal government was concerned have been largely met, and that we do not want to solve the surplus of man power the European way that leads 'ultimately to armed conflict. The American way was defined to lie in the in crease of the national income, and answered in terms of work and op portunity, "To this problem be longs the problem of youth as well as old age; . . , the army of unused youth must be the special concern of a democratic govern ment Fear and defeatism as an easy attitude to take to go : back to ways that have failed, reminded that in 1933 we faced facts: with action that in the 30s resulted in building soundly a new order. Then followed an appeal that the dawn of the decade of the 40s be mark ed by continuiifjj to carry on the process of recovery. Other items of great public in terest referred to were conserva tion of national resources, health, education, social security, removal of regional restrictions on trans pprtation,. and the necessity for national unity "Permanent security does not lie in arms alone, We face world wide disintegration of moral and religious values. Forces that have made our nation great must be actively, and practically reassert-1 ed. . . . as a fundamental safe guard.' Warning was given against those Americans "who . try European tricks of fanning flames of race and class hatreds among our own people. Congress was urged to consider the needs of the nation with calm ness, courage, cooperation and wis dom, so that the 1940s may be an other period when democracy jus- tines its existence as the best system of betterment yet devised oy mankind.
