That is the Republican Party of today.

I'm doing my best with that; so is this administration

I just think there is very little use guessing

It is a great honor for me to come back to the country where I served so many years.

I left here in 1924, after three years of wonderful service among a wonderful people.

Of course, there's always someone ready to step in our faces, too, but I think friendship is stronger than the jealousies and the hatreds.

I believe if we get such a thing established, I would like to do it with the greatest possible cooperation of everybody that has an interest in the Government.

I am not going to challenge anybody else's motives.

Yes, I heard from Governor Stassen, had his report this morning, which is long enough to require more study than I have been able to give it before I would want to comment on it at any length.

I haven't put in a bill.

I am ready to sign a sound Soil Bank Act as soon as Congress sends it to me.

I conclude that the bill is contradictory and self-defeating even as an emergency relief measure.

Under the circumstances I believe that I have no choice but to return the bill without my approval.

I say my campaign is the record.

I never predict what I am going to do to a bill before it gets to me.

My answer will be positive, that is, affirmative.

I have tried to make it just as clear as I can that any Republican that would like to do this job, I would like to see him put his case before the public just as earnestly as he knows how.

I have tried to be a little bit on the, let's say, cautionary side rather than on the optimistic.
