NEW DEAL ASSAILED.
MR HOOTER’S DENUNCIATION. NEW YORK, Feb. 14. Mr Herbert Hoover, former Republican President, in a speech to-day, assailed the New Deal as a mixture of coercion, collectivism, and lust for persona] power. He declared that the three great missions of the Republican Party were the preservation of personai, 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 as an “economic hallucination.” After quoting Mr Roosevelt's saying that “this generation has a rendezvous with destiny, Mr Hoover commented: “The most bable spot for that rendezvous to-day is inflation. 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.”
