probability leave us with a deficit. I am saying to you, as
I go across the country, that this is a policy, of special
privilege against the people. The President of the United
States was elected by all the people, and it is his business
to look out for those things that are of most benefit to the
most people.
are going to
I think you xxxx find the legislative program by
this Congress that is in the interests of special privilege
all the way across, and we will discuss that when I have a
chance to make atrip aeross the country on a political campaign.
I can't tell you how very much I appreciate the
ccrdiality of your reception, and I appreciate what is the
best in the things I have had to say to you about the things
in the country that you are vitally interested in. It is the
business of the President to inform the people on what he
thinks they should know, and then it is up to the people to
make up their minds how they want to act.
In 1946, about E third of the electorate gave us
the majority in the 80th Congress; and you get just what you
deserve when you don't go out and vote.
If all of you don't come out this time and decide
what is best for the country, you can't complain about what
you get for the next four years.
Thank you very much.
