His willingness to remove himself from the “driver’s seat” answers very completely the charge of dictatorship and nulli- fies entirely the allegation that Mr. Roosevelt is attempting to! thanks to the “great spirit” ther own ancient ways at own traditional times.

All e) dence indicates that in approach- ing this task, Mr. Roosevelt is very anxious to receive the coop- eration of all Americans and the constructive criticism which alone enables him to wisely use the gteat power which he has.
