CLEVELAND Text of the President's Message Washington, April 112 folia ii Members of the Congress- You have been culled m extraordi nary session to give your considera tion to national problems far too pressing to be long neglected. Wc face our tasks of legislation and adminis tration maid conditions ns difficult as our government has ever contemplat ed. I'mler our political system the I pie of th,. Cultcd States have cliargid the new Congress and the new administration with the solution the readjustments, reconstruction, nnd restoration which must follow In the wake of wnr. It may he regretted that we were so illy nrennred fur wiir's nfterinnth. so little made ready to return to the ways of peme; but we nre not to be ills loiiraged. Indeed, we must be the more tirmlv resolved to undertake our work witli high hope, and invite nvery factor in our citizenship to join in the effort to find our normal, onward way agnin. Tin- American people have ap praised the situation, nnd with that tolerance nnd pntience which go with undi. -standing they will give to us the influence of deliberate public opin ion which ultimately becomes the eilii t of any popular government. They nre measuring some of the stern necessities, and will join in the give and take which is so essential to film re-estnblislinient. Home Problems First First in mind must be the solution of our problems at home, even though some phases of them nre insepara bly linked with our foreign relations. The surest procedure in every gov -iiiiiuent is to put its own house in older. I know of no more pressing prob lem at home than to restrict our na tional expenditures within the lim its nf our national Income, mid at Ihe same lime measurably lift the bur dens of wnr taxation from flip shoul ders of the American pe-ople. One cannot be unmindful that econ omy ! a much-employed cry. most frequently stressed In pre-election uppeals; but it is ours to make It an outstanding and ever-impelling pur pose In botli legislation mid mlminis tratinn. The unrestrained tendency to heedless expenditure and the at tending gtuvvth eif public indebtedness, extending from federal authority to that of state and municipality, and including the smallest political sub division, constitute the most dan gerous phase of government today The nation i-nnimt restrain except in its own ne-tlvities. lnit It can be ex emplar In a wholesome reveisnl.

PRESIDENT IV HIS DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN POLICIES Addresses Senate and House. Declares Separate Peace Alone Is Not Sufficient URGES TAX REVISION AND EMERGENCY TARIFF Executive Advises Less Federal Interference With Business. Would Cut Expenditures By tho Associated Press Wnshint-ton, April 12. President Hnrclinj,', in his first address to Con gress today, delivered personally, announced that he would approve a "declaratory resolution" by Con gress "with qualifications essential to protect all' our rights" which would end the "technical state of war against the Central Powers of Europe." The President added, however, "thnt it would be idle to declare for separate treaties of peace with tho Central Powers on the assumption alone that these would be aeleauate. because the situation is so involved that our peace engagements cannot ignore the old-world relationships and the settlements already effected, nor is it desirable to do so in prov ing our own rights and contracting our future relationships." Although declaring unreservedly again.st "the existing League of Na tions," the President snid: "The. wiser course would seem to be the acceptance of the confirma tion of our rights nn3 interests as already provided and to crjgage under the existing treaty, assuming, of course, that this can be satisfac torily accomplished by such explicit reservations and modifications as will secure our absolute freedom from inadvisable commitments and safeguard all our essential inter ests." Association Awaits Peace An association of nations, the President said, could not be founded until the wot Id was at peace. Other important rei-eimmendiitions by the Ptesiiieiit were-: TAXATION Iti'iieljustment of in tctnnl taxes and revision or repent "of those t.ixcs which have become unproductive- and are so artificial and burden semii' as to defeat their nw-u piirposi."
