【文章內容簡介】 and selfish wrongdoing. Small wonder that confidence languishes, for it thrivesonly on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of our obligation, on faithful protection andon unselfish performance. Without them it cannot live.
　　認識到把物質財富當作成功的標準是錯誤的，我們就會拋棄以地位尊嚴和個人收益為唯一標準，來衡量公職和高級政治地位的錯誤信念。我們必須制止銀行界和企業(yè)界的一種行為，它常常使神圣的委托混同于無情和自私的不正當行為。難怪信心在減弱，信心，只有靠誠實、信譽、忠心維護和無私履行職責。而沒有這些，就不可能有信心。
　　Restoration calls, however, not for changes in ethics alone. This nation is asking for action, andaction now.
　　但是，復興不僅僅只要改變倫理觀念。這個國家要求行動起來，現(xiàn)在就行動起來。
　　Our greatest primary task is to put people to work. This is no unsolvable problem if we take itwisely and courageously. It can be acplished in part by direct recruiting by thegovernment itself, treating the task as we would treat the emergency of a war, but at the sametime, through this employment, acplishing greatly needed projects to stimulate andreorganize the use
　　of our great natural resources.
　　我們最大、最基本的任務是讓人民投入工作。只要我信行之以智慧和勇氣，這個問題就可以解決。這可以部分由政府直接征募完成，就象對待臨戰(zhàn)的緊要關頭一樣，但同時，在有了人手的情況下，我們還急需能刺激并重組巨大自然資源的工程。
　　Hand in hand with that, we must frankly recognize the overbalance of population in ourindustrial centers and by engaging on a national scale in a redistribution in an effort toprovide better use of the land for those best fitted for the land.
　　我們齊心協(xié)力，但必須坦白地承認工業(yè)中心的人口失衡，我們必須在全國范圍內重新分配，使土地在最適合的人手中發(fā)表揮更大作用。
　　Yes the task can be helped by definite efforts to raise the value of the agricultural product andwith this the power to purchase the output of our cities. It can be helped by preventingrealistically, the tragedy of the growing losses through fore closures of our small homes and ourfarms. It can be helped by insistence that the federal, the state, and the local government actforthwith on the demands that their costs be drastically reduce. It can be helped by theunifying of relief activities which today are often scattered, uneconomical, unequal. It can behelped by national planning for, and supervision of all forms of transportation, and ofmunications, and other utilities that have a definitely public character. There are many waysin which it can be helped, but it can never be helped by merely talking about it. We must act,we must act quickly.
　　明確地為提高農產(chǎn)品價值并以此購買城市產(chǎn)品所做的努力，會有助于任務的完成。避免許多小家庭業(yè)、農場業(yè)被取消贖取抵押品的權利的悲劇也有助于任務的完成。聯(lián)邦、州、各地政府立即行動回應要求降價的呼聲，有助于任務的完成。將現(xiàn)在常常是分散不經(jīng)濟、不平等的救濟活動統(tǒng)一起來有助于任務的完成。對所有公共交通運輸，通訊及其他涉及公眾生活的設施作全國性的計劃及監(jiān)督有助于任務的完成。許多事情都有助于任務完成，但這些決不包括空談。我們必須行動，立即行動。
　　And finally, in our progress toward a resumption of work, we require two safeguards against thereturn of the evils of the old order。 there must be a strict supervision of all banking andcredits and investments。 there must be an end to specu
