summary summary of the things I have hwe stood for in this campaign as they are the things thing I shall stand for as President No man can tell in advance what unexpected demands the next nett four I years year m may present but one ono whose conception of the Presidents President's duty rests rest upon fundamental principles can eRn describe with ith entire eating sincerity how the problems of administration would be approached and in what sp spirit rit they would be solved A man cha charged ed with ith the duty of reaching a desired goal oal knows that tha the he ro road d to it is found in following that path which sound judgment am and clear vision opens up step by bJ step I can cm show the road I expect to travel I propose first of all to start right The President is primarily an executive It is his supreme duty to attend to the tho business of the nation to safeguard its interests to anticipate its needs to enforce its laws The first act Q of a President who takes this view of his duties is to call cal about him the thc ablest cabinet the country county can furnish men who can deal dea with ith the thc tremendous international and domestic problems which will confront confront confront con con- front us in the next four years Administrative Head My conception of the presidency differs absolutely from that of Mr Ir I Wilson I look upon the President as the administrative head of the gOr government gov gov- eminent r l He lIe looks upon the President as primarily ly the political leader anc and I l lawmaker r of the nation I i iv v f oo ooIn yu In the two departments of government nt most closely y touching our our b for or- or r- r eign oiga relations the relations-the the department tit oi state and the department o the navy navy-he navy he chose men whom he knew to be wholly unequal to their duties Administrative tive thc obligation was ted subordinated to political exigency I can assure the country that any administration under my direction will stand upon sound adm administrative 1 strati e ground with the ablest cabinet the country can cnn supply Across the road we arc are to travel tra this next four years even en though we start right and move with prudence and courage serious hazards are arc thrown like breaks in a roadway made by a a. torrential rain These all rise out oi of the war torrent which has hns overwhelmed Europe The first has bas to do with our foreign 1 relations It is the thc Presidents President's duty to safeguard the tho interests of our own nation and to preserve the friendship hip o of every even other nation No man is more determined 1 than I to maintain the peace pence which tho United States Spain Sweden Norway and all the American republics now noT enjoy But I should seek to maintain that Hint l peace ace by y a firm and courteous insistence on the tho rights of our citizens at nt home and abroad An American in Mexico exico is subject to Mexican Jaw law but he is an American American Amer Amer- ican still and is entitled to the thc protection of his own government in his lawful business For one I shall never ne consent to a policy which leaves Americans helpless s against the lae lawlessness of any country in which the they have a right to do business The Labor Situation There confronts labor in the next four tour years a n. condition more serious than any am that American laboring men have been called upon to fa face When this w war r began over a million American workingmen were seeking vainly for tor employment When the w war r ends and the developed energies of or a new Europe are thrown into commercial production our nation will wUl face faco a a. competition competition competition com com- petition such as It never knew One of or two things thing's mu must t happen happen either cither millions of or men will be seeking in vain or else there must be thought out In advance the problem of or commercial commercial commercial com com- mercial as France Francc and nd England and Germany German are seeking to think of or the problem toda today Every one of oC these nations Is 15 preparing to defend its own market b by a protective tart tariff The Tho end of

be bo our Industrial competitors tomorrow If It we are to I av pave ae our laboring men from froma a a. catastrophe we wo must plan a tariff protection along sound just and economic lines JInes To this endeavor I pled pledge go myself and the thc men men who aro to be bc my colleagues ues In this mattor matter again I differ r absolutely from tho the policy of or the present administration Democratic plAtforms have declared declared that the government has no right to Ie levy tariff duties except for fOl income This is 15 tho the fundamental fundamental funda Lunda- mental faith of the Democratic party Pledges His Aid 1 I pledge m myself scH and those who stand with me to deal with the needs of or laboring men the country country- over o whatever their trade organization upon tho the principle of or giving the largest protection possible to every American workingman workingman work- work ingman and the largest participation possible in tho the prosperity of or our Industries Industries industries indus Indus- tries with special favors to none Finally it is to be remembered that hat ev every h European government is puttinG putting put put- tin ting It itself behind its industries organizing them encouraging them and suggesting suggesting sug sug- gesting economics economies When the commercial struggle be begins anew the industries Industries Indus tries of ot every even European country countr will wUI go o Into the Iho world markets backed by bythe bythe bythe the effective operation co and Intelligent oversight ht of ot their thell government s Our national policy requires that government maintain a n. strict supervision supervision super super- vision of or bu business organization This can bo lie done effectively and yet yot ct leave leavo I the government free to encourage legitimate and whole wholesome omEl business enter enter- prise I stand for or such supervision and control of business but I demand also that business great and small nI and d especially the small business bo ho treated fair fain and Justly justl Only under such conditions can business pay living Jiving wa wages cs or compete with foreign marJ markets In this respect again the thc present administration holds a policy entirely opposite It ha has viewed business enterprise with suspicion and has made mado the government a brake brako to stop the wheels of or legitimate industrial progress It has treated tho business men of at this country countr as though they were suspicious characters It has assumed that capital and labor are arc natural enemies In four years it has put this country further on the thc road to class war than has been lIeen accomplished In a l generation before The men who stand with me believe believe be he- lieve In the hone honesty tr of the thc American workingman they believe no less legs in the thc honesty of or the American business man and they believe c that the common good is to bo ho found not in cla class s war 1 but in mutual justi justice e and fair Call d dealing not as between capital and labor in the abstract but as between men and anti men Scores Foreign Policy You know the road wo we ha have traveled this last last four our years Mr Bryan and Mr Daniels are arc its monuments of ot executive efficiency Our murdered and forsaken citizens in Mexico reveal lc a conception o of oc American citizenship plain enough to see sec but a new ono one for merican American patriotism to adopt the monument monument monument ment to class bitterness raised b by this administration throws a a. sinister shadow across our political horizon tho the unjust accusation 3 against business men has left a bitter taste In our national life life- If Ie you oU prefer this path oath it is plainly marked And the tho end of oC it is class war You ask asli what road rond 1 I propose to travel I The These are the mlle milestones which mark marl it it-an it an executive responsible to the whole nation a cabinet cho chosen cn
