We are so confident that much of the present day insufficiency and in- efficiency of transportation are due to the withering hand of government op- eration that we emphasize anew our opp<sition to government ownership, we want to expedite the reparation | and make sure the mistake is not re peated. A state of inadequate transportation facilities, mainly chargeable to the | failure of governmental experiment, is losing millions to agriculture, it is hin- | dering industry, it is menacing the | American people wiih a fuel shortage | little less than a peril. It emphasizes the present day provlem and suggests that spirit of encouragement and as- sistance which commits all America to relieve such an emergency.

Will Prevent Unreasonable Profits. | In all sincerity we promise the pre vention of unreasonable profits, we challenge profiteering with all the moral force and the legal powers of government and people, but it is fair, aye, it is timely, to give reminder that law is not the sole corrective of our economic ills. Let us call to all the people for thrift and economy, for denial and sac rifice if need ‘be, for a nation-wide drive against extravagance and luxury, to a recommittal to simplicity of liv ing, to that prudent and normal plan of life which is the health of the re public. New conditions, which attend amaz ng growth and extraordinary indus trial development, call for a new and forward looking program. The Ameri can farmer had a hundred and twenty millions to feed in the home market, and heard the cry of the world for food and answered it, though he faced an appalling task amid handicaps ney er encountered before. Contemplating the defenselessness of the individual farmer to meet the or ganized buyers of his products and the distributors of the things the farmer buys, I hold that farmers should not only be permitted but encouraged to join in cooperative association to reap the just measure of reward merited by their arduous toil. Aid to Farmer Pledged. Our platform is an earnest pledge of renewed concern for this most es sential and elemental industry and in both appreciation and interest we pledge effective expression in law and practice. We will hail that coopera- tion which again will make profitable and desirable the ownership and op eration of comparatively small farms intensively cultivated, and which will facilitate the caring for the products | of farm and orchard without the la | mentable waste under present condi | tions. | America would look with anxiety on | the discouragement of farming activity | either through the government's neg- | lect or its paralysis of socialistic prac- | tices. A Republican administration will be committed to renewed regard | for agriculture and seek the partici pation of farmers in curing the ills | justly complained of, and aim to place | the American farm where it ought to be—highly ranked in American activ ities and fully sharing the highest good fortunes of American life Becomingly associated with this sub: ject are the policies of irrigation and reclamation, so essential to agricul tural expansion, ond the continued de velopment of the great and wonderful | West. It is our purpose to continue and enlarge federal! aid and not in sec tional partiality, but for the good of all America, . Budget System Favored. 1 believe the budget system will ef. fect a necessary, helpful reformation, and reveal business methods to govern ment business. I believe federal de partments should be made more busi ness like and send back to productive effort thousands of federal employes, who are either duplicating work or not essential at all. I believe in the protective tariff pol icy and know we will be calling for its saving Americanism again. I believe in a great merchant marine. 1 would have this republic the leading maritime nation of the world. I be | lieve in a navy ample to protect it and able to assure us dependable defense 1 believe in a small army, but the best in the world, with a mindfulness for preparedness which will avoid the un utterable cost of our previous neglect I believe in our eminence in trade abroad, which the government should aid in expanding, both in revealing? marbkets and speeding cargoes. I be- lieve in establishing standards for im- migration, which are concerned with | the future citizenship of the republic, | not with mere manpower in industry | I believe that every man who dons the garb of American citizenship and \ walks in the light of American oppor- | tunity, must become American in heart | and soul. 1 believe in holding fast to every for- | ward step in unshackling child labor | and elevating conditions of woman's | employment. I believe the federal gov | ernment should stamp out lynching and rewove the stain from the face of America. I believe the federal gov- EEE , stitution, SALIENT POINTS IN SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE. “I pledge fidelity to our coun- try dnd to God, and accept the nomination of the Republican party for the Presidency of the- United States.” “The human element comes first, and | want the employers in industry to understand the aspirations, the convictions, the yearnings of millions of Ameri- can wage earners.” “The Constitution contem- plates no class and recognizes no group. It broadly includes all the people, with specific rec- ognition for none.” “We approve collective bar- gaining.” “Gross expansion of currency and credits has depreciated the dollar. We will attempt intelli- gent and courageous deflation.” “When competition—natural, fair impelling. competition is suppressed, whether by law, compact or conspiracy, we halt the march of progress, silence the voice cf aspiration and par- alyze the will for achievement.” “I promise you effective peace as quickly as a Republican con- gress can pass its d@claration for a Republican executive to sign.” “I can hear the call of con- science an insistent voice for largely reduced armaments throughout the world.” “Our vision includes more than a chief executive.

Government Should Protect Bonds. I believe this government should make its liberty and victory bonds worth all that its patriotic citizens paid in purchasing them. I believe the tax burden imposed for war emer- gency must be revised to the needs of peace and in the interest of equity in distribution of the burden, I believe the negro citizens of Amer- ica should be guaranteed the enjoy- ment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battlefields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands. I believe there is an easy and open path to righteous | relationship with Mexico, It has seem- ed to me that our undeveloped and uncertain and infirm policy has made | us a culpable party to the government- al misfortunes in that land. Our re- lations ought to be both friendly and sympathetic. We would like to ac- claim a stable government there and offer a neighborly hand in pointing out the way to greater progress. I be- lieve in law enforcement. If elected 1 mean to be a constitutional president and it is impossible to ignore the con- unthinkable to evade the law, when our every commital is to orderly government. The four million defenders on land and sea were worthy of the best tradi- tions of a pecple never warlike ia peace and never pacifist in war. They commanded our pride, They have our | gratitude which must have genuine ex- pression, It is not only a duty, it is a privilege to see that the sacrifices made shall be requitted and that those | still suffering from casualties and dis- abilities shall be abundantly aided and restored to the highest capabilities of citizenship and its enjoyment.

It is my earnest hope, my sincere desire, that the one needed state vote be quickly recorded in the affirmation of the right of equal suffrage and that | the vote of every citizen shall be cast and counted on the approaching elee- ton. And to the great number of noble women who have opposed in convic- tion this tremendous change in the ancient relation of the sexes a8 ap- plied to government I venture to plead that they will accept the full respon- sibility of enlarged citizenship and give to the best in the republic their suffrage and support. This is not only a fortunate people but a very common sense people with vision high but their feet on the earth, with belief in them- | selves and faith in God, whether ene- mies threaten from without or menace from within, there is some indefinable voice saying “Have confidence in the republic; America will go on.” i PE 2 AR SE j $250,000 Timber Sold.
