WIIIIICCI against listening to those who "preach the ‘ism’ of appease- nicnt,’ anu as a means of strength- ening the moral fibre of the Am- erican people in the face of "for- eign petil“ made four recommenda- tions for domestic action.

Old age pensions and ununploy- meat insurance should be spread w cover a greater proportion of the population, he said, opportunities for adequate medical care should be increased, a. better means of pro- viding employment for those de- serving or needing it should be de- vised, and no person should be al- lowed to grow wealthy out of the defence program.

After a few preliminary para- graphs he swung emphatically into the main theme of his message that the “aggrcss0t's" are still on the march, the "democratic way" if un- dor attack the world over, ltl months of war had blotted out democracy in "un appalling number of inde- pertiidcnt natiotisJ great and small," an :--

"Thcreforc, . . .1 find it utthap- pity ti£:'es.~ary' to report that thc Lu- ture and the safety of our country and of our democracy are over- whelmingly involved in events far bcyond our borders."

An axis victory, he said ‘would lnean axle domination of [our tonlinenls, with greater popula- ion and resourccs than those it‘ thc Unltcd States. No gencr- mzy could be cigpecled of a ‘dictators peace," he continued, and an tltLack on the Americas was to he expected if thc dic- Iiitots won, and to speak of im- munlly from stich an attack was "loose talk."

"As long as the aggressor lions maintain the offensive," "tin-y -not we —-will choose 1e nhd place and the method

ihoi." attack."

Kill-

Qtnckly, then, tie swung into an ‘I

uiitinctaiiuzi of three basic points? of "national p0licy"':- ‘ "I<‘1rst. by an impressive expres-

sicn of tlic public will tmd without lwcrt- started and were visible are ‘ymilts out to sica. .

and wt strengthen the defence and 50('llt‘ll_\’ of our own nation.

'“i.ii.rl_ lty an impressive expres- sion cl the public will and with- out regal-ct to partisanship, we are committed to the proposition that piuiiciples of morality and considera- tions tor our own security will nev- er permit us to acquiesce in a peace dictated by tiggrcssors and sponsor- cd by appczisers.

Encouraging Progress

Defence production had shown lIIllCll encouraging progress, he said. but he and his aides are still dis- sutisiiezi. "None of us will be satis- iird until the job is dotie."

'l'.ie President said the country is bllllllld schedule on airplane pro- tittction, and the effort was to catch tip; ztltcud of schedule on warship production. and working to get even larthcr ahead. '

"To change a whole nation front a btlbts of peacetime production of‘ implements of peace to basis of u-arttme production of implements of irai- 1s no small task," Mr. Roose- vcl‘. suid.

Asserting that the time may be iichr wltcn Britain and her allies air unable to pay in cash for their \\.tr purchases here, the President said the United States cannot “tell them they must surrender, merely because of present inability to pay for the weapons which we know they must have." He went on to outline his lease-lend plan of get- tnic material assistance to Britain.

As he approached his conclusion. the President said the nations must lock forward to a world founded "upon four essential human freed- Oins."

"The first is freedom of speech and expression -everyyvhere in the world.

"The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way-everywhere in the world.

"The third is freedQn from want ~which translated into world terms. means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a hcaltny peace time life for its inhabitants —everywhere in the world.
