...Roosevelt made answer Monday night in a speech at a political rally in St. Paul. Elevating his oration from a mere defence to a prolonged attack on the Republican economic program, Mr. Roosevelt reasserted his favorite criticism of the Hoover plan, reiterating the opinion that any effective solution must depend on a "policy that seeks to help all simultaneously." In an effort to give weight to his proposal, Mr. Roosevelt punctuated his address with ringing names drawn from the histories of both parties.

There is little honor due the person who cries over spilt milk while holding in his own hands the only...
...academic world the reputation and influence of any University depend mainly on the excellence of its graduate school. The undergraduate House Plan has tended to monopolize the interest of the University at the expense of the Graduate School. There remain in the House Plan many problems still to be solved, but the need for practically undivided attention is past. The efforts of the University ought to be focused on the essential source of its greatness, the excellence of its best scholars...
