President Roosevelt stressed that people in the United States whose incomes were less than U.S. $2,000 per auman, bought over two-thirds of all the goods sold in the country.

Therefore, he said, it was logical that if the total amount paid in wages to this group was steadily increased, merchants, employers and investors would, in the long run, get more income from the increased volume of sales.

CONFIDENT BANK NOTE.

President Roosevelt stated that he had just received a telegram [from the President of the Ameri- can Bankers' Association, express- ing full confidence and a sincere desire to co-operate.

~The telegram stated:—

"The banking structure of the United States is sound and liquid. Banks have never been. in a stronger position to func Hion effectively."

Pitadent Roosevelt recalled the position of the banks a year, ago, and added that the telegram Was a living illustration of the progress made.

He appealed to officials to con- solidate the gains, and to resolve that consolidation, should lead the continued progress and specially the greater happiness and well being of the American people.
