of disillusionment comes to them.” ‘This party must nave a fighting cause,” he said in @ speech br8adcast, in part, over a nation-wide network of radio stations. “It must have an affirmative program; it must present effective methods; it must have a forward purpose; it must have idealism, and it must be responsive to the needs and crises of the people.” His visual audience 4000. “We are concerned,” he said, “with service in a national crisis. Our country must have emancipation from the moral degeneration of current Government methods.”

Defines His Position
Early in his address Mr. defined his own position. “Before I go further, not that it is of any importance but just to keep the air clean,” he said, “let me repeat once again that I do not want any public office.” But, he added, “I shall keep on
Hoover
fighting for those things vital to the
American people.” Mr. Hoover said it was essential that the party map out its program before 1940 and not be content to operate on the theory of “give the other fellow enough rope and he will hang himslf.” “If the Republican Party has not learned the lesson that it must produce principles and program besides being ‘against’ and joyriding on mistakes,” he said, “it has not read history. . “If the Republican Party meets the needs and aspirations of the people who are opposed to the New Deal, they will fuse and coalesce and not before.
New Blood Is Urged
“They only join in the march if they know where we are going.” Mr. Hoover started by asserting that “the party must have new faces and new blood.” He proposed that the task of bringing “sanity and reform to destructive fiscal and economic policies which undermine the standards ot living of the great economic middle class” be undertaken “as citizens and not as politicians.”
Then he asserted his own lack of |
desire for public office and added: “There is no form of words that will convince a suspicious politician that any man under 85 can have any other purpose for interesting himself in public affairs. The of seeking office seems to be highest intellectual level to which the opposition can rise when they are made uncomfortable by argument and new proposals.”
He said there were five great categories of national issues.
Five Categories of Yssues
“The first are issues of moral in- |!
tegrity in government. The second
are the vital issues of personal liberty and its safeguards.
policies which affect the standards |
of living of the people. The fourth &re the humane issues of security and of aid for The fifth are our relations to other nations.” The national question, he said, is rot “where are we going?” but “Where do we want to go?”
He indorsed the suggestion that |
the party select “a policy committee of its most distinguished men and women to draft an honest,
courageous declaration of convic- | tions, or positive principles, and for- |
ward action.’ Such a committee, he said, could | “work out methods within those principles” to be presented “later on or to the 1940 convention.” “I am not concerned over details,” he said. “I am deeply concerned | that people who are losing their way shall be given a banner of moral and intellectual leadership around | which they can rally as the inevitable day of disillusionment comes to them.”
Discussion Is Vital
Discussion is important, he said, adding that Alf M. Landon « Kansas, Republican candidate for Presi- | dent in the last election, “a few nights ago made a notable contribution to such discussion.” The ideas of the Dcmocratic Party, “are made ny one man. We want to develop Republican ideas from the party.” Concerning “moral integrity Government” he asked a series of questions which included:
“Can your Government broadcast

| half truths and expect the citizen to | tell the whole truth? | “Do you think you can pollute thought with framed Government propaganda and maintain honest thinking in the citizen?
Fears Decay of Morals
“Does not the wholesale appoint{ment of Government officials by | politics and not by merit mean a | Gecadance in public morals? What {is the morality of the recent return to the spoils system? “Can the Government repudiate {the covenant of its bonds and expect citizens to hold to their obligations? “Can the Government ruthlessly crush competition and hold the businessman to fair play? “Can the Treasury deliberately manipulate the market in Government bonds and expect the citizens
“Is it moral for a Government to

practices act by selling books to corporations for political funds? “What of Governors who obstruct the courts and refuse to maintain public order? “Or of workmen beaten and Xilled by police squads on one hand and beef squads on the other? Is it moral for high Government officials to stir hate of group against group, of workman against workman? “Do you think you can maintain confidence in our institutions and continually pollute the ballot box?”
Moral Fiber Is Vital
Mr. Hoover said that “a nation is great not through dams in its rivers or its ships on the sea or the deposits in its banks. It is great by the moral fiber and character of its citizens. Nations die when these weaken.” The former President said the conflict was between “true liberalism” and “the creeping collectivism of the New Deal” Collectivism he defined as “any system where the tendency is to make the people the servants of the government,” and ‘true liberalism” as “liberty organized under law.” “The term liberal,” he said, “has

all collectivists, whether they be | | New Dealers with creeping collec- { tivism or frank and open Socialists (or the unconscious Fascists. Its | fold can apparently even be entered | through the Ku-Klux Klan.”
‘Creating Disunity’
“True liberalism does not start as an economic system,” he said. “An economic system flows from it. The only economic system which | will not destroy intellectual and | spiritual freedom is private enterprise, regulated to prevent special | privilege or coercion.” He said the New Deal, through | “Government manipulation of money and credit, Government restriction of production, Government | control of hours and wages, the entry of Government into competitive business on a large scale, Govern- | ment coercion of upright citizens” and its attempts to “pack the Supreme Court,” undermine the independence of Congress and weaken State and local Government, was creating “a Frankenstein of hate and national disunity.” He said the republican govern- {| ment, could “declare the principles | of free enterprise,” and become “the | conservative party in the sense of | conserving true liberalism.” Mr. Hoover said he hoped the day would come when no one would be | “underclad or underfed or under- | nourished.”
“Think of Middle Class”
“But America must think also of the other nine-tenths or two-thirds. | or whatever it is, which are mostly | the great economic middle class.’ he said. “It is the great economic | middle class who have spent vears learning to do their job skilfully | who must carry these burdens.” “Government policies which tax,

harry and demoralize the produc- | tivity” of the middle class, he said, ‘are the greatest catastrophe which can come to the one-third of underclad, underhoused and underfed. | Their redemption must come by preserving the two-thirds, not by | dragging them down.” He charged that the New Deal employed ‘the bright colors of | wordy objectives” to “camouflage | failure.” “Samuel Johnson,” he added, “said the road to the hot place was paved with good intentions. Truly | it can be said that the New Deal | road to salvation is paved with objectives. That road badly needs repaving with practical methods.” Mr. Hoover suggested that the | Republican Party ‘‘declare the prin- | ciples of economy which will lift a |! burden from all who toil. It can | declare principles of taxation that | will not choke enterprise and de- | stroy men’s jobs.” The Party, he concldued, “must | make the humanitarian objectives | of the nation possible which are otherwise wrecked by wrongful and | ineffective methods. It must reform destructive economic policies which | undermine the standards of living | of the economic middle class and | thus all the people. It must emancipate the people from this creeping collectivism and restore | true liberalism. It must emancipate | them from the moral degeneration in government.
Asks Positive Aims
“The interest of the nation re[quires that the Republican Party shall provide the country with posi- | tive and aflirmative principles and proposals that will meet these | yearnings of the people today for a way out and forward.” Concerning the possibility that | dissatisfied Democrats might join forces with Republicans, Mr. Hoo- | ver said: “There coalition.

But the | people fuse or coalesce around ideas and ideals, not around political bargains or stratagems.
