the one hand, and public utilities on
‘the other. In the former, our laws
insist upon effective competition; in
the latter, because we substantially
confer a monopoly by limiting com-
petition, we must regulate their ser-
vices and rates. The rigid enforce-
ment of the laws applicable to both
groups is the very base of equal
opportunity and freedom from
domination for all our people, and it
is just as essential for the stability
and prosperity of business itself as
for the protection of the public at
large. Such regulation should be ex-
tended by the federal government
within the limitations of the consti-
tution and only when the individual
states are without power to protect
their citizens through their own au-
thority. On the other hand, we
should be fearless when the author-
ity rests only in the federal govern-
~ ment.
Cooperation by the Government
The larger purpose of our economic
thought should be to establish more
firmly stability and security of busi-
ness and employment and thereby
remove poverty still further from our
borders. Our people have in recent
years developed a new found capa-
‘city for cooperation among them-
selves to effect high purposes in
public welfare. It is an advance to-
‘ward the highest conception of self-
government. Self-government does
not and should not imply the use: of
political agencies alone. Progress is
born of cooperation in the community
—not from government restraints.
The government should assist and
encourage these movements of col-
lective self help by itself cooperating
Business has "by co-
operation made great progress in the
advancement of service, in stability,
in regularity of employment and in
the correction of its
Such progress, however, can continue
only so long as business manifests its
respect for law.
There is an
equally important
field of cooperation by the federal |
government with the multitude of
agencies, state, municipal and pri-
vate, in the systematic development |
of those processes which directly af-*
fect public health,

; Education
Although education is primarily a
responsibility of the states and local |
_ communities, and rightly so, yet the more potent instrumentality for this |
nation as a whole is vitally concern- | purpose has ever been conceived and |
ed in its development every where to|
the highest standards and to com-|
plete universality. Self-gov ernment |
can succeed only through an instruct- |
Our objective is not
simply to overcome illiteracy. = The
nation has marched far beyond that.
The more complex the problems of
the nation become, the greater is the
need for ‘more and more advanced in-
struction. Moreover, as our numbers
- increase and as our life expands with
science and invention, we must dis-
cover more and more leaders for
every walk of life. = We cannot hope
to succeed in directing this increas-
ingly complex civilization unless we
can draw all the talent of leadership
from the whole people. One civiliza-
tion after another has been wrecked
upon the attempt to secure sufficient
leadership from a single group or
class. If we would prevent the
growth of class distinctions and would
constantly refresh our leadership with
the ideals of our people, we must
draw constantly from the general
mass. The full opportunity for every
boy and girl to rise through the se-
lective processes of education can
alone secure to us this leadership.
Public Health
In public health the discoveries of
science have opened a new era. Many
sections of our country and many
groups of our citizens suffer from
diseases the eradication of which are
mere matters of administration and
moderate expenditures. Public health
service should be as fully organized
and as universally incorporated into
our governmental system as is
public education. The returns are a
thousand fold in economic benefits,
and infinitely more in reduction of
suffering and promotion of human
happiness.
World Peace
The United States fully accepts the
profound truth that our own progress,
prosperity and peace are inter-
locked with the progress, prosperity
and peace of all humanity. The
whole world is at peace. The
dangers to a continuation of this
peace today are largely the fear and
suspicion which still haunt the
world. No suspicion or fear can be
rightly directed toward our country.
Those who have a true under-
standing of America know that we
have no desire for territorial expan-
sion, for economic or other domi-

poses are repugnant to our ideals of

The way should, and I believe will, be

damental to the progress of peace.
Our people are determined that we
should make no political engagements
such as membership in the League of
Nations, which may commit us in ad-
vance as a nation to become involved
in the settlements of controversies
between other nations. © They adhere
to the belief that the independence of
America from such obligations in-
creases its ability and availability for
service in all fields of human prog-
ress. ; ;
I have lately returned from a jour-
ney among our sister republics of
the western hemiphere. I have re-
ceived unbounded hospitality and
courtesy as their expression of
friendliness to our country. We are
held by particular bonds of sympathy
and common interest with them.
They are each of them building a
racial character and a culture which
is an impressive contribution to hu-
man progress. We wish only for the
maintenance of their independence,
the growth of their stability and their
prosperity. = While we have had wars
in the western. hemisphere, vet on
the whole the record is in encouraging
contrast with that of, other parts of
the world. Fortunately the new
world. We should keep it so.
It is impossible, my countrymen, to
speak of peace without profound
emotion. In thousands of homes in
America, in millions of homes around
the world, there are vacant chairs.
It would be a shameful confession of
our unworthiness if it should develop
that we have abandoned the hope for
which all these men died. Surely
civilization is old enough, surely
mankind is mature enough so that
we ought in our own lifetime to find
a way to permanent peace. Abroad,
to west and east, are nations whose
sons mingled their blood with the
blood of our own sons on the battle-
fields. Most of these nations have
contributed to our race, to our cul-

These ideals and aspirations are the |
touch-stones upon which the day to
day administration and legislative
acts of government must be tested.
More than this, the government must,
so far as lies within its proper
powers, give leadership to the reali-
zation of these ideals and to the
fruition of these aspirations. No one
can adequately, reduce these things
to the spirit of phrases or to a cata-
log of definitions. We do know
what the attainments of these ideals
sheuld be: The preservation of self-
government and its full foundations
in local government; the perfection
of justice whether in economic or in
social fields, the maintenance of or-|
dered liberty; the denial of domina-
tion by any group or class; the
building up and preservation of
equality of opportunity; the stimula-
tion of initiative and individuality;
absolute integrity in public affairs;
the choice of officials for fitness to
office; the direction of economic prog-
ress toward prosperity and the fur-
ther lessening of poverty; the free-
dom of public opinion; the sustaining
of education and of the advancement
of knowledge; the growth of re-
ligious spirit and the tolerance of all
faiths; the strengthening of the
home; the advancement of peace.
There is no short road to the reali-
zation of these aspirations. Ours is
a progressive people, but with a de-
based upon the foundataoin un unuu
termination that progress must be
based upon the foundation of experi-
ence. 'Ill-considered remedies for our
faults bring only penalties after them.
But if we hold the faith of the men
in our mighty past who created these
ideals, we shall leave them heightened
and strengthened for our children.
Conclusion
This is not the time and place for
extended discussion. The questions
before our country are problems of
progress to higher standards; they
are not the problems of degeneration.
They demand thought and they serve
to quicken the conscience and enlist
our sense of responsibility for their
settlement. And that responsibility. f

SPRING PASTURE
IS NOT HARMFUL
North Carolina Finds Milk
Is Richer in Butterfat.
- It’s mostly tradition, and not facts,
that leads many dairymen to believe
that the quality of milk depreciates
when the cows are turned from the
dry feed of the stable to the succulent
green feed of the pasture.
“Yet we have a few dairymen and
many consumers who believe this,”
says Fred M. Haig of the animal hus-
bandry department at the North Car-
olina state college. “We have just
completed a test with nine cows in
the herd here at the college which
shows that instead of the animals giv-
ing a lower quality of milk in the
spring, it is materially richer in but-
terfat.”
Last winter, Professor Haig seloct:
ed nine cows and fed them cotton-
‘seed hulls as the sole roughage for a
period of ten weeks. No succulent
feed was given during the period. The
average daily milk production was
201.0 pounds testing 4.64 per cent fat.
The cows were then changed from
the hulls to corn silage and hay and,
after giving time to accustom them-
selves to the change, the same data
was again collected. With this feed,
each cow of the nine produced 209.1
pounds of milk per day testing 4.88
per cent fat.
On May 4, the nine cows were
turned on a rich pasture consisting of
green wheat and crimson clover.
Again they were allowed time to ad-
just themselves and the data again
collected. The average daily produc-
tion in this case was 212.9 pounds of
milk each day testing 5.37 per cent
fat. GO,
Throughout each of these three
tests, the grain ration remained con-
stant and supplied a balanced ration.
However, this shows that silage is bet-
ter than the dry feed and a good pas-
ture is better than silage. Professor
Haig states that succulent feed is im-
portant in the dairy business not only
for the maintenance of healthy cows
but also for the amount and quality
of milk produced.
To Secure Best Results
‘From Bull Feed Wisely
In order to secure the best results
with the bull, it is necessary that he
be fed very carefully in order that he
does not become too fat and sluggish.
therefore a poor breeder.
In feeding the mature bull, a very
satisfactory grain ration can be made
up of: One hundred pounds ground
corn, 50 pounds wheat bran, 40 pounds
oats, ten pounds oilmeal, five pounds |
bonemeal. 3
It is not often that the bull will
need more than two to four pounds of
such a grain mixture per day before
he is put to service. A two-year-old
bull when in service will probably re-
quire a pound of such a grain mixture
per day for each 100 pounds of live
weight; therefore, if he weighs 1,500
pounds he would require 15 pounds of
grain per day if in good condition ; but
if thin, would probably require 18 to
20 pounds, per day while being used.
Mature bulls should have just enough
grain to keep them in good, vigorous
condition but not too fat. Mature bulls
often become slow breeders when they
become fat. 3
As a general thing a limited amount
of corn silage may be allowed to the
mature bull, but generally not over a
half feed such as 15 or 20 pounds per
day. Along with the silage a mature
bull can usually have all the alfalfa
or clover hay he will eat without
waste. Most authorities claim that
heavy feeding of silage makes the
bull a slow breeder.
