PROTECTION STORY A LIE
Father Coughlin
 Talks Finances
Defends Radio Talks-Pleads for Old Age Pensions and
 Law and Order

Waterbury people and in fact oth- CTS all over the country were anx- ious to know what Rev Charles E.. Coughlin of the Church of the Shrine of the Little Flower. Wood ward avenue on the Twelve Mile road, Detroit, Mich., would have to say on the radio last night. It had been announced that he would have to tone down some if he were to speak over the radio any more. He was heard at the usual hour and started by thanking the Columbia Broadcasting system and it's allied stations for its fairness and express ed much pleasure at being able to say that the virtue of fairness still exists in the United States. During the past week he received over 3OO,- 900 letters in commendation of his work and they are still coming in in bagfuls, the writers including Catholics. Protestants and Jews, to all of whom he expressed heartfelt gratitude.
 Father Coughlin took for his sub ject "Prosterity" and handled it in a manner which must have made many of his listeners sit up and think. He defended the senators and representatives from what he termed unjust criticism and regretted to know that there is a tendency in the United States to make light of the opinions of legally elected rep resentatives of the people and sub stitute for them suggestions from other sources. The speaker reviewed the history of the war and with spe- cial reference to the financial aspect
