NOTES OF THE DAY A CANADIAN LOOKS AT

THE PRESIDENT'S APPEAL

Victory is to be had by pulling together. This, essentially, is the import of President Roosevelt's message to the United States on economic recovery, For a long time it has been reasonably clear that America could pull itself out of depression and into at least a

fair amount of business activity at any time if ways could only be found to start all the inachinery at once, Many were ready to others start if only they know would start. Hundreds of om ployers were willing to restore employment and wages if they could be sure that other industries would similarly enlarge their pay rolls. Millions of workers would spond more freely the wages in hand when they could feel sure next week's wages would meet next week's need. Hence the pro- gramme adopted by the President and the formulation of codes.
