NEW DEAL
DENOUNCED BY HOOVER COERCION AND LUST FOR POWER ECONOMIC HALLUCINATION. FEAR OF DICTATORSHIP. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. NEW YORK. February 14. Mr Herbert Hoover, former Republican President, in a speech today, assailed the New Deal as a mixture of coercion, collectivism, and lust for personal power. He declared that the three great missions of the Republican Party were the preservation of personal. intellectual and economic freedom. economic rehabilitation, and peace for America by avoiding entanglements in another Great War. Mr Hoover termed President Roosevelt’s spending policy an "economic hallucination." After quoting Mr Roosevelt's saying that "this generation has a rendezvous with destiny,” Mr Hoover commented: ’ “The most probable spot for that rendezvous today is inflation,” he said. "When this generation has gone up that alley it will find that freedom is gone and our rendezvous will be with a full-sized dictator.”
