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. It is
I being wondered whether the General!
hielped or harmed Mr. Roosevelt by|
his hlUnt dttack upon the_lwo.
.j... Whether...th4...Genepal. #poke"i'With or
without presidential authority or fore;>
knowledge is one of the current Wash
ington mysteries.. Some folk say the
j President put him up to it. Others are
I certain that the President "didn’t even
know that the General was going to
open up. The result, however, has
been to bring forth more pungent
criticism from both Senator Long and
Father-Coaghlmj attacking not ^only

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 ^
