LITTI.K BOCK, Arkansas, .June 11, — Pre ident
Roosevelt pled g'd tli(> administration “to march for
ward' under the "broad purposes” of the constitution
m meeting the economic and social needs of the day.
The chief executive told large throngs that the ov
erwhelming' majority of the American people believed
the constitution was intended “to meet and lit the am
azing physical, economic and social requirements that
confront the United States in this generation.”
He said that .Jefferson had the courage to drive a
bargain for the purchase of the Louisiana Territory, de
spite legal doubts, and that case was never carried to
the Supreme Court.
Speaking an hour before former President Herbert
Hoovers address at the republican national conven
tion. over a nation-wide hookup, Roosevelt also declar
ed tli it the country needed "an ardent prospectus of the
rights of the common man”, adding that no group by
reason of wealth, learning, inheritance or economic
power could abrogate to itself, the political control of
American public life1 for long.
1 he substance ol his speech came as a surprise to
many members ol his party and residents, who had been
led to believe that he would confine his remarks to hist
orical reference, in tune with the occasion of celebrat
ing tin- anniversary of the Louisiana Purchase.
Many observers saw in the president’s remarks,
the outlining ol ,i political thesis which will become
prominent features of the fall campaign.

(By The Associated Press)
CLEVELAND, June 11, — In sharp excoriation of
the New Deal, before the Republican National Con
vention, Herbert Hoover compared it with the “march
of socialism, and fascist dictatorships” in Europe, and
called for the American people to enter upon a “Holy
Crusade for Liberty.”
Addressing “Republicans and fellow Americans”,
Herbert Hoover, titular leader of the party, con
cluded his address with “stop the retreat and lead the
attack to re-take and re-capture, and retain the cita
dels of liberty. Thus can America be preserved; thus
can peace, plenty and security be re-established and
expanded; thus can the opportunity for the inheritance
of a spiritual future for your children be guaranteed;
thus you will win the gratitude of posterity and bless
ings of the Almighty God.”
Asserting that the New Deal has delayed recovery,
re contended that if continued, its policies will result in
“tears of anguish and universal bankruptcy. The pro
phets of the New Deal have produced proposals which
have enabled the New Deal to take a few hundred thou
sand earnest party workers to the promised land—it tak
es the rest of the United States for a ride into the wild
erness of unemployment.”
