VAN NUYS LAUDS RECOVERY ACTS j OF ROOSEVELT Senator Recalls Stupendous Problems That Faced Executive. By Ttmei Sperial MADISON, Ind.. Oct. 26.—The problems with which the country was faced at the end of Herbert Hoover's reign and the manner in which President Franklin D. Roosevelt set the nation on the road to recovery, were discussed at a Ninth district rally here last night by Senator Frederick Van Nuys. “Fully apprehensive of the serious responsibility with which he was confronted, President Rooseveit immediately entered an aggressive and constructive program for the rehabilitation of the nation,” the senator said. “The ultimate objective was manyfold. First, it must preserve the union; second, it must guarantee to every citizen a more abundant share in the economic and spiritual life of the nation. The chief executive asked congress for powers commensurate with those usually commanded by such office in times of war. “It was necessary that the government act correctly and efficiently. He asked the money and power to relieve the misery of 40,000,000 cf our citizens, to preserve the small homes and the farms, to put men to work at an honest wage and to stifle cut-throat competition, child labor and sweat shops- We gave him those powers and he has successfully administered every one of them. We are well on the road to recovery.” Senator Van Nuys, in closing, urged the election of Sherman Minton, Democratic senatorial nominee, in order that the ideals of President Roosevelt might be upheld by both Indiana senators.
