THE RADIO DUBL.^ r Washington, March 18. —The net effect' of General Hugh Johnson’s broadcast attack on Senator. Huey Long and Father Charles Coughlin has been to bring both of thofee fig ures into more Conspicuous positions ! unde? the limelight, and to increase 'fhe.“dumber of those who listen to jthem. That is the general concensus of Washington opinion which looks at everything in terms of politics.

USID IN TIMI Miirs PREVENT many colds the administration but, in Senator Long’s case, the President bimself. Changed Tactics Senator Lpng announced a few weeks ago that he had quit drinking, and those who have been observuigT him say that is'true. And he has been Surprising those who have been ac customed to hearing only vituperation and abuse from his lips, by talking, both on the senate floor and over the radio, like'a man with a Serious mes sage to deliver. His “share-the-wealth” program is calculated to appeal to millions of uneducated voters. - Father Coughlin, also, has seized the opportunity to become more spe cific about his own ideas of how to pull the country oiit of its economic hole, and there is some worry here that great numbers of voters are lis tening to the “radio priest” and tak- ing-his talks seriously. The efX«ct of all that sort of thing on the nation at Jarge is that it sets congress and executives to worrying about ‘how to placate the voters who are supposed to be influence<l by such folk as Long and Coughjin, without ^crificing the support of the more CMservative element. New Perspective The realization has^^been gradually seeping in that cooperation between business and government has got to become a reality if there is to be any actual recovery. It is also being real ized that the expected stimulation to business by the expenditure of money on public works hasn’t had the effect of “priming the pump” of recovery. Those realizations are having tiheir effect in the consideration of the President’s work-relief plan, and also in the matter of the extension or modification of the NRA. The swing in congress away from the plan for putting all of those now Ion relief at work on government pay rolls appears to be growing stronger. Business interests are almost unani- tfiously opposed to it, mainly on the ground of economy. It would cost less to continue the cash dole than to carry out the work-relief project. Also, powerful Federation of Labor lobby .seems to have killed the basic princi ple of the President’s plan, of paying less than the prevailing^ rate of wages on the relief work. How the whole business will turn out is still a matter of ~cdhj^ule7 “ir "demons^^^^ that the present congress is doing some independent thinking, especially in the senate. " ^ . NRA In EcKpse Every day that passes without some definite action by congress for Che continuance of NiRA lessens the chance that this recovery measure will be continued in effect after its expiration on June 16.~ It seems cer* tain now that all businesses and in- Sdgiools Adopt ^ " I Thrift Systena Local Bank Adopts PlaiPTo En- Courage Saving On Part of School Children of City. MISS EVELYN CHAMBERS ^ ^ Miss Evelyn Chambers, daughter of the Rev. H. 0.
