B—16 ROPER SAYS GAINS REFUTE RIS Forum Speaker Scoffs at| Theory That Reforms Handicapped Trade. (Continued From Seventh Page.) - corded statistical measurements that have just been cited. However, there are those today who take the peculiar- ly inconsistent stand that business has shown these striking improve- ments in spite of what the administra- tion has done rather than because of what it has done. In the light of all'the comprehensive and far-reaching facts of the case, this assertion is just as ridiculous as | is the case of the sick man, who after | constant and careful treatment and attention through a critical illness de- clared upon his return to good health that he would have recovered anyway without the doctor’s treatment. As a tudes have determined to a large extent the course which our national growth and progress have taken. Scientific achievement and tech- nological advancement have in a large measure been responsible for the di- verse economic approaches of the va- rious sections of the country toda: The wants, requirements and apti tudes - of labor vary considerably throughout the country. The RQusiness man, the farmer and the manufactur- er ali have different problems, de- termined by the conditions which exist in their respective localities. Such economic differences and conflicts are always aggravated by depression forces, thus making recuperative, cor- rective and preventive treatment ex- ceedingly difficult. But in the final analysis all these various divergent economic interests have one common objective. We are all striving in our respective endeavors for the welfare | and progress of the Nation as a whole. Seeks to Balance Interests. ‘Thus, it becomes the problem of the Federal Government to seek a policy which will endeavor to balance as equitably as possible these conflicting interests so that the results of our enterprise will accrue to the benefit of all concerned. This is the policy that the Roosevelt administration has followed, seeking tq balance as nearly as possible the opportunities in agri- matter of unbiased and concrete ap- praisal, the various steps of economic | and social recovery have been so pre- cisely coincident with the specific ac- | tions taken by the administration | that no other conclusign is possible | but that business recovery has resulted directly from such efforts b Automatic Recovery Hit.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, able in terms of figures, they are nevertheless indispensable to broad national recovery and future sustained stability. . Business on its own power was im- potent to extricate itself from the depression maelstrom. Denials of this fact today do not remove the truth of that stark admission, as made in 1933 We have now, according to reliable and accepted economic evi- dence, passed the primary stages of a great cyclical upswing and entered into that phase whith will determine the course and duration of that upswing. The fundamental and definite ob- jective of the Roosevelt administra- tion is to increase the security and happiness of the people; to adjust which had become dangerously weak- ened and undermined by March, 1933, with the situation today. Confidence in Banks Saved. With the American banking and financial institutions on the verge of complete collapse, the confidence of the people was completely shaken in the fundamental soundness and value of one of the basic processes in our economic system. Today, as a direct result of action taken by the Roosevelt administration, the American banking system is stronger than at any time in its history and the people have absolute faith in its soundness and integrity. The protective measures which have been set up around our financial enterprises give to the in- vesting public full assurance that in recovery, turn to the business and financial pages of the same paper and you will find complete evidence that business recovery has not been ob- structed. When any one criticizes something that is being done and says that it should not be done, I ask him to reply to the pointblank question: What, specifically and concrmly,y do you have to offer or suggest in- stead of what is being done?
