ANY RETREAT FROM PRE
SENT STANDARD LIVING
IS A MISTAKE
CLEVELAND, Oct., 3, (/P)—A
parade of communists estimated
at 600 was broken up when they
attempted to break away from
an escort of police and headed
for the public hall where Presi
dent Hoover was addressing the
Bankers Convention.
Mounted police threw tear gas
bombs into the demonstration
and used clubs before the short
lived demonstration was broken.
President Hoover was not
aware of the demonstration un
til afterward when he boarded
his train for Washington.
He told the bankers that al
though the current business de
pression was world-wide, Ameri
ca must go forward independ
ently to recovery and maintain
its standard of living.
In reply to suggestions that
ThO 0+ On/Tovrln
ered, he said: “I emphatically
disagree. Not only will I not ac
cept such a theory but on the
contrary the whole purpose and
ideal of this system is distincive
of our country; to increase the
standard of living by adoption
and conveniently widening the
diffusion of invention, discov
ery.
“Amongst the whole of our
people any retreat becomes a re
ireat into perpetual unemploy
ment and acceptance of the cess
pool of poverty for some large
part of our people because this
depression is world-wide and
does not require that we should
wait until recovery rests with
the world.”
