“NEW DEAL” DENOUNCED
MR. H. HOOVER GIVES AIMS OF REPUBLICAN PARTY "RENDEZVOUS WITH FULLSIZED DICTATOR" NEW YORK, Feb. 14. Mr. Herbert Hoover, former Republican Party President, in a speech to-day, 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 entaglements in another Great War.
Mr. Hoover termed the spending policy of the President, Mr. Franklin Roosevelt, as an "economic hallucination.’’ After quoting Mr. Roosevelt's saying that "this generation has a rendezvous with destiny,” Mr. Hoover commented:
"The most probable spof 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.”
