For through you the chosen legislative representatives our citizens everywhere may fairly judge the progress (sound is lost - comes back) I can report to you substantial benefits for our agricultural population, increased industrial activity and profits to our merchants. Of equal moment perhaps a greater moment. There is evident a restoration of that spirit confidence and faith ... and character. Let him who false speculated profit or partisan purpose without just warrant would seek to disturb or dispel this assurance, take heed before he assumes responsibility for any act that slows our onward steps. I'm not willing that the vitality of our people be further sapped by the getting of cash, of market baskets, of a few hours of weekly work, cutting grass or raking leaves or picking up papers in the public parks. (Sound is lost-comes back) To preserve not only the bodies of the unemployed. Preserve them from destitution. But also their self respect, their self-reliance, their courage, their determination. (Sound is lost-comes back) This brings me to the problem of, "What the government should do?" With approximately 5-millon unemployed, now on the relief road. It is not empty optimisms. It moves me to a strong hope in the coming year. We can if we will, make 1935 a genuine period ... of purposeful progress. Beyond the material recovery, I sense a spiritual recovery as well. The people of America are turning as never before to those permanent values that are not limited to the physical objectives of life. There are growing signs of this on every hand. In the face of these spiritual impulses, we are sensible of the divine providence to which nations turn now as always for guidance and fostering care." (Applause from the audience)
