Senator Barkley on Roosevelt era reforms and economic recovery

The speech lauds Franklin Roosevelt, rails at a twelve year Republican era, and credits the New Deal with reviving faith, credit, and government action. It cites bank rescues, banking acts, trade expansion, and relief to farmers, contrasting past hardships with current reforms and warning against returning to pre Roosevelt policies.

Republican pledges on agriculture through the ages

The speech recalls Republican platform lines from 1916 to 1982 praising farm welfare and balanced policy, contrasts Democratic farm controls, and credits the 1933 Agricultural Adjustment Act with boosting farm income and housing. It argues Republicans now denounce scarcity while Roosevelt's soil program succeeds, condemning weasel terms and calls for continued farm support.

Deflation of the Cleveland platform and debt claims

The piece attacks Republican claims on deficits and debt, defending Roosevelt era reforms. It cites the Works Progress Administration aiding 3.5 million workers and billions in relief, argues the 1929–1933 balance was misrepresented, and defends the New Deal’s impact on debt, taxes, and credit while praising relief programs and public works.
