Abstract

The President's Message

September 25, 1943 issue

add to cart   close window

The U.S. President's message to Congress was notable for its vigor, its comprehensive review of the war effort in World War II and its statesmanship. If at points it reflected his growing irritation with the press and with his critics, that irritation is understandable and its expression this time was restrained. It is true that "there is no news when things run right" and it is also true, as the President said, that Americans could not have accomplished all they have "if conditions in Washington and throughout the nation were as confused and chaotic as some people try to paint them."
