Our domestic problems are for the most part economic. We have our enormous debt to pay, and we are paying it. We have the high cost of government to diminish, and we are diminishing it. We have a heavy burden of taxation to reduce, and we are reducing it. But while remarkable progress has been made in these directions, the work is yet far from accomplished.

Little progress can be made by merely attempting to repress what is evil. Our great hope lies in developing what is good.

All growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or intellectually without effort, and effort means work.
