Stoddard died in the prison hospital.
He and three prisoners had made a
successful break in 1931. Today’s
break was made in the recreation
[yards where 1000 convicts were exer
cising. The other men were marched
into their cells without disorder.

"There was no place among this
, royalty” he continued, "for our many
thousands of small businessmen and
merchants who sought to make a
! worthy use of the American system of
1 , initiative and profit. They were no
more free than the worker or the
farmer.’’
‘‘lt was natural and perhaps hu
man,” he said, "that the privileged
princess of these new economic dy
nasties, thirsting for power, reached
out for control of government itself.
They created a new despotism and
wrapped it in the robes of legal sanc
tion.
"In its service,” he declared, “new
mercenaries sought to regiment the
people, their labor and their prop
erties.
“It was as a result of ■ this,” he
herd, “that the average man once
mere confronts the problem that
facea the minute men.”
The chief executive said those who
tilled the soil no longer received what
was due then. "The small measure
of their gains,” he declared, "was de
creed by men in distant cities.
Opportunity Stunted
Throughout the nation,” he said,
“opportunity was limited by monopoly.
Individual initiative was crushed in
the cogs of a great machine. Private
enterprise became too private. It be
came privileged entet prise, not free
enterprise.
“For too many of us,” the president
said, “the political economy we once
had won was meaningless in the face
of economic inequality,
“A small group had concentrated
into their own hands,” he declared,
"an almost complete control over oth
er people’s property, other oeople’s
money, other people's labor—other
people’s lives.
"The collapse of 1929,” said Mr.
Roosevelt, “showed up the despotism

for what it was. The election of 1932
was the people’s mandate to ena it.
“Under that mandate it is being
ended, he cried.
Then the president attacked those
who opposed the New Deal.
“The economic royalists complain
that we seek to overthrow the in
stitutions of America,” he said. "What
they really complain of,” he answered,
"is that we seek to take away their
power.”
"Our allegiance to American insti
tutions requires the overthrow of this
kind of power,” he said. “In vain they
try to hide behind the flag and con
stitution. In their blindness they for
get what the flag and the constitu
tion stand for. Now, as always, the
flag and the constitution stand for
democracy, not tyranny—for freedom,
not subjection—and against a die-

Hands Platform
“The bravz and clear platform
adopted by the convention, to which
I heartily / subscribe,” he said, “sets
forth that government in a modem
civilization has certain inescapable ob
ligations. to its citizens, among which
are protection of the family and the
home, <ihe establishment of a democ
racy o Z opportunity, and aid to those
overtejken by disaster. For more than
three years we have fought for them.
This convention has pledged in every
word, and deed that the fight will go
on.”*
“We tire poor, indeed,” the presi
dent declared, “if this nation cannot
afford to lift from every recess of
/American life the bread fear of the
t /hemployed that they are not needed
Ai the world. We cannob afford to
accumulate a deficit on the books of
human fortitude.”
Governments can err, Mr. Roose
velt said, "presidents can and do
make mistakes.” But, he then con
cluded, “better the occasional faults
of a government that lives in a spirit
of charity that the consistent ommis
sions of a government frozen in the
ice of its own indifference."

Gamer said the Democratic New
Deal took the nation’s helm at the
end of an “old deal” Republican ad
ministration which had left the coun
try in the midst of "despondency,
gloom and despair.”
"The old de,',” he said, "is a polit

order giving special privileges to a
few favored ones.”
Then he added:
"The New Deal is simply an adapta
tion of the laws of the country so
that the greatest good will come to
the greatest number.”
"That New Deal,” Garner said, "is
our platform in this campaign. On
that platform I stand.

Senator Robert R. Reynolds of
North Carolina said the rain in
Philadelphia today was a blessing
in disguise.
If there had been definite assur
ance of clear weather, half a mil
lion people would have been
turned away from Franklin Field
tonight, Senator Reynolds de
clared.
The cloudy skies kept the crowd
within the limits of what could be
acommodated. As a sidelight on
the final hours of the convention,
the North Carolinian said:
“Vice President Garner spent
the day sampling Pennsylvania
cigars and stogies.”
