WILSON Staff Correspondent Jan. 7 (ITl WASHINGTON, President Roosevelt today called on congress to set aside political and economic differences in order to concentrate on achieving victory and a decent . . . durable peace. Hard Blow Promised Promising that the united nations ere going to strike and strike hard against the axis in Europe, Mr. Roosevelt described the year 1943 as holding out the possibility of tremendous advances toward a peace which he emphasized must encompass the humanitarian objectives endorsed by the united nations. Mr. Roosevelt cited figures which he said showed that American production in 1942 gave cause for genuine pride," and he criticized those whose criticism of war production was based tm guess-wor- k ' and even on malicious fealsifica-tio- n of fact. Mr. Roosevelt questioned bluntly the wisdom of those who say this is not the time to speak of a better post-wa- r America. Personally delivering his annual state of the union message to a joint session of the new congress, he said: It is wholly possible that freedom from want the right of employment and the right of assurance against lifes hazards will loom very large as a task of America during the coming two yeais. Iteviiws War Mr. Roosevelt devoted a large poition of his message to reviewing the progress of the war in the past year and forecasts of more pt ogress this year. The nazis and the fascists have asked for it and they are go"g to get it, he said. "I cannot prophesy, I cannot tell you when or where the united nations are going to strike next in Europe But were going to stnke and strike hard.
