ARTHUR J. FUNK 15 EAST PERRY STREET ■■■nnHa^uanaßanEßßannKEsaßSßSEs. 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.
