"A Little Too Far"

In Boston last week William Henry Cardinal O'Connell addressed, as "a Catholic citizen," the Guild of St. Apollonia. Said he: ''The radio presents a new problem. There is a man in Florida or Michigan, I forget which,* who talks every Sunday afternoon. . . .

"The Catholic Church is a tremendously serious organization. . . . You cannot blow up the rich, laugh at the bankers ... or utter demagogic talk to the poor in the name of the Church which is for rich and poor alike. "This Sunday afternoon radio address has been stopped for the season. I am glad, as it had gone a little too far."

*Apparently a reference to round-faced father Charles E. Coughlin of the Detroit diocese, radio preacher, who last week presented himself before the House Ways & Means Committee to say: "To pay the Bonus will . . . put $2,000,000,000 into . . . trade. ... It will compel us to revalue the . . . dollar. . . . We have given the last transfusion . . . and soon we will have a corpse on our hands. ... If we do not revalue the dollar legally--remember Russia . . . the French revolution . . . our own revolution of 1775!"
