not occur in the very near future,
there will be no escape from driving
into the open the furtive Federal
financing processes so vigorously con-
demned in the last campaign and
proceeding frankly to the creation of
floods of printing press money in the
place of the comptometer-c created bank
credit by which We have financed
deficits in every one of the past five
years"
Answers Inconsistency Charge.
Johnson defended himself against
charges of Inconsistency in a recent
magazine article and charges that he
the interests" had taken him up to
a high place and shown him the PROM
ised land"
His point. stressed repeatedly both
in last nights speech and in the
magazine article in question, was that
the fundamental tenets of the New
Deal were sound, but had been largely
abandoned because of incompetent ad-
ministrators and unsound advice re-
ceived by the Chief Executive.
"One glory" he said. will always
remain in the crown of Mr.. Roosevelt.
Alone, with only two or three pred
ecessors. he did do something
about it.
The value Of that precedent is
inestimable. The people of this coun-
try know at least one thing about a
political figure on the liberal side
that he will act as we'll as talk. .
I'm this fundamental faith it is my
creed that liberalism must purge itself
of error and weakness before the stern
test comes next year. The issues
have raised can all be determined and
the errors all corrected now"
Speaks on IF This Be Treason"
Johnson's address was entitled IF
This Be Treason" He spoke at the
opening lecture of the Temple course.
In an interview preceding the ad-
dress johnson emphasized: I'm for
Roosevelt" as he answered a query
on his own aspirations for Office by
saying, There's nothing to it"
During the address johnson de-
clared, Franklin Roosevelt still stands
for the proposition that we can and
should continue to try to do something
about it. The other side. whether YOU
consider their leader to be Mr.. Ogden
Mills, Mr.. Frank Knox or Mr.. Herbert
Hoover. who at least is the symbol of
the doctrine of the do nothings,' that
is all their whole crew stands for. Do
nothing about it. What they mean
is that the mass of the people shall
not touch their ancient privileges, and
that is all they mean"

CLEVELAND. October 29.-Gen
Hugh S. johnson denounced the New
Deal last night for amazing blunders
and failures called for the re.
election of President Roosevelt.
Reducing current controversies tc
a choice between those who would "dc
something" about a maladjusted eco.
nomic situation and those who would
do nothing" he espoused in an ad-
dress delivered here the former view
and declared Mr. Roosevelt its out
standing exponent. But he added:
Il know of no duty of loyalty or
devotion to the side on which I stand
that suggests to me that there is the
slightest virtue in attempting to con-
ceal or gloss over these tragic and
dangerous tendencies.
"On the contrary, it is my firm con-
viction that while the salvation of this
country will be found only under the
leadership of Franklin D. Roosevelt
as the single effective exponent of the
policy of do something as against
all the exponents of the policy of dc
nothing that we shall not attain
that salvation unless the New Deal
is purged of these failures and
blunders and of the influences and
administrators who are so obviously
responsible for them"
Declared "Fantastical Flop"
In criticism of the New Deal, he
said:
Does anybody with grain of in
telligence suppose that there can be
concealed from this country the
obvious and fantastical flop Of the
combined w. P. A.-P. w. A. program
of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES next to

cost of billions. making no improve
ment whatever in the underlying
causes of unemployment?
Does anybody suppose there is an
intelligent farmer in this country, or
absolute necessity for elevating the
farm segment of our population, who
does not know that not one inch of
progress has been made in final So
luton of the farm problem by these
expedient measures for the temporary
and artificial propping up of farm
prices?

that anything whatever has been done
permanently to solve the overwhelm-
ing problem of unemployment which
bedevils not only this country but
