Speech of President Roosevelt at New York Chamber of Commerce banquet
President Roosevelt congratulates the New York Chamber of Commerce on their efficiency and forthrightness in their economic dealings, which he praises as characteristic of the United States. He asserts that the United States is successful enough to not be jealous of other successful nations, and to help weaker nations like Cuba and China. The United States embraces peace due to a “genuine desire for self-respecting friendship with our neighbors” rather than weakness. In addition to international peace, he also speaks to domestic peace in an industrial society, particularly between employers and employees. This is the printed copy of Roosevelt’s speech.
