SCHOONER IS DISABLED IN
NEWPORT-BERMUDA RACE
HAMILTON, Bermuda, June 26
<TP).—The schooner "Countess” fell
jut and limped back towards the
eastern coast of the U. S., this morn
ing—the first casualty in the New
port-to-Bermuda yacht race.
The "Countess,” owned by a New
York Yachtsman, was disabled when
her backstay was smashed by a heavy
sea. She had covered about 150
miles of the 635-mile dash. The oth
er 44 yachts put on sail. and sped
ahead.
Unfortunate Situation
"Think up some way to cure the
itch and your fortune will be made.”
“I have it!”
"The cure?’
“No, the itch.’’
DEMOCRATS OFFER
BALANCED BUDGET
IN ’36 PLATFORM
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
civilization has certain inescapable
obligations to its citizens, among
which are:
First. Protection of the family and
the home.
Second. Establishment of a democ
racy of opportunity of all the peo
ple.
Third. Aid to those overtaken by
disaster.
These obligations, neglected through
twelve years of the old leadership,
have once more been recognized by
American government. Under the
new leadership they will never be neg
lected.
For the protection of the family
and the home:
First. We have begun and shall
continue the successful drive to rid
our land of kidnapers and bandits.
We shall continue to use the powers
of government to end the activities
of the malefactors of great wealth
who defraud and exploit the people.
Savings and Investments
Second. We have safeguarded the
thrift of our citizens by restraining
those who would gamble with other
people's savings, by requiring truth tn
the sale of securities; by putting the
brakes upon the use of credit for
speculation; by outlawing the mani
pulation of prices in stock and com
modity markets; by curbing the over
weening power and unholy practices
of utility holding companies; by in
suring fifty million bank accounts.
Old Age and Social Security
Third. We have built foundations
for the security of those who are
faced with the hazards of unemploy
ment and old age; for the orphaned,
the crippled and the blind. On the
foundation of the social security act
we are determined to erect a struc
ture of economic security for all our
people, making sure that this benefit
shall keep step with the ever-increas
ing capacity of America to provide a
high standard of living for all its
Citizens.
Consumer
Fourth. We will act to secure to
the consumer fair value, honest sales
and a decreased spread between the
price he pays and the price the pro
ducer receives.
Rural Electrification
Fifth. This administration has fos
tered power rate yardsticks in the
Tennessee Valley and in several oth
er parts of the nation. As a result
electricity has been made available
to the people at a lower rate. We will
continue to promote plans for rural
electrification and for cheap power
by means of the yardstick method.
Housing
Sixth. We maintain that our people
are entitled to decent, adequate hous
ing at a price which they can afford.
In the last three years the federal
government, having saved more than
two million homes from foreclosure,
has taken the first step in our his
tory to provide decent housing for peo
ple of meager Incomes. We believe
every encouragement should be given
to the building of new homes by pri
vate enterprise; and that the govern
ment ghould steadily extend its hous
ing program toward the goal of ade
quate economic necessities to live
in unhealthy and slum conditions.
Veterans
Seventh. We shall continue just
treatment to our war veterans and
their dependents.
For the establishment of a democ
racy for opportcnity.
Agriculture
We have taken the farmers off the
road to ruin.
We have kept our pledge to agri
culture to use all available means to
raise farm income toward its pre-war
purchasing power. The farmer is no
longer suffering from fifteen cent
corn, three cent hogs, two and one
half cent beef at the farm, five cent
wool, thirty cent wheat, five cents
cotton and three cent sugar.
By federal legislation we have re
duced the farmers’ indebtedness and
doubled his net income. In co-opera
tion with the states and through th?
farmers’ own committees, we are re
storing the fertility of his land and
checking the erosion of his soil. We
are bringing electricity and good
roads to his home.
We will continue to improve the
soil conservation and domestic allot
ment program with payments to
farmers.
We will continue a fair-minded ad
ministration of agricultural laws,
quick to recognize and meet new prob
lems and conditions. We recognize
the gravity of the evils of farm ten
ancy, and we pledge the full coopera
tion of the government in the refian
cing of farm indebtedness at the low
est possible rates of Interest and
over a long term of years.
We favor the production of all the
market will absorb, both at home and
abroad .plus a reserve supply suf
ficient to insure fair prices to con
sumers; we favor judicious commod
ity loans on seiOonal surpluses; and
we favor assists ace within federal
authority to enable farmers to ad
just and balance production with de
mand, at a fair profit to the farmers.
We favor encouragement of sound,
practical farm co-operatives.
By the purchase and retirement of
ten million acres of sub-marginal
land, and assistance to those attempt
ing to eke out an existence upon it
we have made a good beginning to
ward proper land use and rural re
habilitation.
The farmer has been returned to
the road to freedom and prosperity
We will keep him on that road.
Labor
We have given the army of Amer
ica's industrial workers something
more substantial than the Republic
ans’ dinner pail full of promises. We
have increased the worker’s pay and
shortened his hours; we have under
taken to put an end to the sweated
labor of his wife and children; we
have written into th? law of the
land his right to collective bargain
ing and self-organization free from
SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JUNE 26, 1936
the interference of employers, we
have provided federal machinery for
the peaceful settlement of labor dis
putes .
We will continue to protect the
worker and we will guard his rights,
both as wage earner and consumer,
in the production and consumption
of all commodities including coal and
water power and other natural-re
source products.
The worker has been returned to
the road of freedom and prosperity.
We will keep him on that road.
We have taken the American busi
ness man out of the red. We have
saved his bank and given it a sound
er foundation; we have extended
credit; we have lowered interest
rates; we have undertaken to free
him from the ravages of cut-throat
competition.
The American busines man has
been returned to the road to freedom
and prosperity. We will keep on that
road.
Youth
We have aided youth to stay in
school; given them constructive occu
pation; opened the door to oppor
tunity which twelve years of Repub
lican neglect had closed.
Our youth have b?en returned to
the road to freedom and prosperity.
We will keep them on that road.
Monopoly and concentration of
economic power.
Monopolies and the concentration
of economic power, the creation f
Republican rule and privilege, con
tinue to be the master of the pro
ducer, the exploiter of the consumer,
and the enemy of the independent
operator. This is a problem chal
lenging the unceasing effort of un
trammeled public officials in every
branch of the government. We pledge
vigorously and fearlessly to enforce
the criminal and civil provisions of
the existing anti-trust laws, and to
the extent that their effectiveness
has been weakened by new corporate
dvics or judicial construction, we
propose by law to restore their effi
cacy in stamping out monopolistic
practices and the concentration of
economic power.
Aid to Those Overtaken By Disaster
We have aided and will continue to
aid those who have been visited by
widespread drought and floods and
have adopted a nation wide flood
control policy.
Unemployment
We believe that unemployment is a
national problem, and that it is an
inescapable obligation of our gov
ernment to meet it in a national way.
Due to our stimulation of private
business, more than five million peo
ple have been re-employed, and we
shall continue to maintain that the
first objective of a program of eco
nomic security is maximum employ
ment in private industry at adequate
wages. Where business fails to supply
such employment, we believe that
work at prevailing wages should be
provided in co-operation with state
and local governments on useful pub
lic projects, to the end that the na
tional wealth may be increased, the
skill and energy of the worker may be
utilized, his morale maintained, and
the unemployed assured the oppor
tunity to learn the necessities of life.
The Constitution
The Republican platform proposes
to meet many pressing national prob
lems solely by action of the separate
states. We know that drought, dust
storms, floods, minimum wages, maxi
mum hours, child labor and working
conditions in industry, monopolistic
and unfair business practices cannot
be adequately handled exclusively by
forty-eight separate state legislatures,
forty-eight separate state administra
tions and forty-elght_ separate state
courts. Transactions and activities
which inevitably overflow state
boundaries call for both state and
federal treatment.
We have sought and will continue
to seek to meet these problems
through legislation within the Consti
tution.
If these problems cannot be effect
ively solved by legislation within the
Constitution, we shall seek such clari
fying amendment as will assure to the
legislatures of the several states and
to the congress of the Untied States,
each within its proper jurisdiction,
the power to enact those laws which
the state and federal legislatures,
within their respective spheres, shall
find necessary, in order adequately to
regulate commerce, protect public
health and safety and safeguard eco
nomic security. Thus we propose to
maintain the letter and spirit of the
Constitution.
The Merit System in Government
For the protection of government
itself and promotion of its efficiency
we pledge the immediate extension of
the merit system through the classi
fied civil service—which was first es
tablished and fostered under Demo
cratic auspices—to all non-policy
making positions in the federal serv
ice.
We shall subject to the civil service
law all continuing positions which
because of the emergency, have been
exempt from its operation.
Civil Liberties
We shall continue to guard the free
dom of speech, press, radio, religion
and assembly which our constitution
guarantees; with equal rights to all
and special privileges to none.
Government Finance
The administration has stopped de
flation, restored values and enabled
business to go ahead with confidence.
When national income shrinks,
government income is imperiled. In
reviving national income, we have
fortified government finance. We
have raised the public credit to a
position of unsurpassed security. The
interest rate on government bonds
has been reduced to the lowest point
in 28 years. The same government
bonds which in 1932 sold under 83
are now selling over 104.
We approve the objective of a per
manently sound currency so stabiliz
ed as to prevent the former wide fluc
tvoations in value which injured in
turn producers, debtors and property
owners on the one hand, and wage
earners and creditors on the other,
a currency which will permit full
utilization of the country's resources.
We asert that today we have the
soundest currency in the world.
We are determined to reduce the
expenses of government. We are be
ing aided therein by the recst.ion in
unmployment. As the requiremeTUs
of relief decline and national income
advances, an increasing percentage of
federal expenditures can and will be
met from current revenues, secured
from taxes levied in accordance with
ability to pay. Our retrenchment, tax
and recovery programs thus reflect
our firm determination to achieve a
balanced budget and the reduction of
the national debt at the earliest pos
sible moment.
Foreign Policy
In our relationshpi with other na
tions, this government will continue
to extend the policy of good neigh
bor. We reaffirm our opposition to
war as an instrument of national pol
icy, and declare that disputes be
tween nations should be settled by
peaceful means. We shall continue
to observe a true neutrality in the
disputes of others; to be prepared,
resolutely to resist aggression against
ourselves; to work for peace and to
take the profits out of war; to guard
against" bein gdrawn, by political
commitments, international banking
or private trading, into any war
which may develop anywhere.
We shall continue to foster the in
crease in our foregn trade which has
been achieved by this administration;
to seek by mutual agreement the low
ering of those tariff barriers, quotas
and embargoes which have been
raised against our exports of agricul
ture and industrial products: but con
tinue as in the past to give adequate
proteption to our farmers and manu
facturers against unfair competition
or the dumping on our shores of
commodities and goods produced
abroad by cheap labor or subsidized
by foreign governments.
The Issue
The issue in this election is plain.
The American people are called upon
to choose between a Republican ad
ministration that has and would
again regiment them into the serv
ice of privileged groups and a Demo
cratic administration dedicated ‘to
the establishment of equal economic
opportunity for all our people.
We have faith in the destiny of
our nation. We are sufficiently en
dowed with natural resources and
with productive capacity to provide
for all a quality of life that meets
the standards of real Americanism.
Dedicated to a government of lib
eral American principles, we are de
termined to oppose equally, the des
potism of Communism and the men
ace of concealed Fascism.
We hold this final truth to be self
evident—that the interests, the se
curity and the happiness of the peo
ple of the United" States of America
can be perpetuated only under Demo
cratic government as conceived by
the founders of our nation.
