TRUMAN ELECTION SPEECH LINKING THE PRINCIPAL CENTRES. Ten-Year Programme For Prosperity For All
Does United States Want Liberalism?
Washington, Feb. 19. President Truman, in a speech tonight formally, launching his campaign for the Presidential election next November, laid down a 10-year programme for the expansion of agricultural output, for an increase of employment and for higher minimum wages.
He declared: "It can be done it will be done." He blamed the Republican Party for the "worst depression in history," which, he said, brought "agriculture to ruin, business to collapse-and labour to despair.".
