FIRST TALK IS GIVEN BY | CHIEF EXEC. Tells Dirt-Men that AAA Setup Has Given Them Their First Aid |IS TRUE FUNCTION, |~ THIS GOVERNMENT Income Has Increased by Over Five Million Dol- lars, 1932 Level | FREMONT, Nebraska, Sept. 28.— | President Franklin D. Roosevelt told a farm audience here today that AAA s giving the farmers “really a chance for the first time In this zeneration,” He declared that an effort to aid the agriculturists was the “true | function of the government under the Constitution.” The President called the AAA ec- onumically and constitutionally dem- ocratic “In the good old sense of the word.” Government's Part “The governmenve. gart in this program,” President Roosevelt said, “is merely to supply a uhiying ele- ment that farmers themselves in past have found so essential to suc- cess, that it seems to me the'true function of the 'government t our Cor s H.iu.ly with individual liberties, but by bringing to the aid of the indi- vidual those powers of government which are essential to assure contin- [uance of the inalienable rights which the Constitution was intend- ed to guarantee.” Although the constitutionality of the AAA has been challenged in the courts, President Roosevelt asserted that the income of farmers had in- creased by $5,300,000 over the 1932 level. True Ideals “I think the AAA is an. expres- sion, in correct form, of the hu- man rights those farmers and pa- triots sought to win when they stood proclaimed the Declaraifon of In- dependence, and when they perpet- uated these ideals by the adoption of the Constitution,” said the Pres- ident. “Methods and machinery change, but principles go on. I have faith, no matter what attempts may be made to tear it down, that the principle of farm equality express- ed by agricultural adjustment will not die," the President sald in cons cluding.

President Roosevelt made his mes- sage public as he traveled across Indiana enroute to: the Pacific The President, commenting fur- ther, said the American naval policy is the same a5 it had been in the past two ang one-half years, which was to bring the Navy up to the strength of the Washington and London treaties by-1942.
