COUGHLIN PRAISES U.S. C. OF C. STAND Declares Promise to Aid Adminis- | tration’s Program Is Noteworthy. By the Assoclated Press, DETROIT. November 26.—Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, declared yes day that “it is honestly expected” that the United States Chamber of Com- merce, which he said is the “spokes- man for the industrialists and finan- ciers” will “alter the entire philosophy which characterized their activities in the past.” “Just last week.” he said, “it was decided by the United States Chamber of Commerce to co-operate in a more noble manner with theactivities of our administration. This is a pleasant and wholesome change which is worthy of recording “It is not fair to interpret this gesture as one that is linked to sub- terfuge and hypocrisy.” Father Coughlin then added that it was “not fair to suspect even momen- tarily the motives of our President.” “He is endeavoring to bring about a union of forces, a union of efforts. He 1s not passing into the hands of the old dealers the outcome of the New Deal. He is not surrendering our des- tinies to those who believe in the sacred right of privately manufactured money, of expanding credit and con- tracting currency at their will. Above all, it would only be a vile misrepre- sentation to charge him with betrayal of the interests of the American people by letting loose once more the four horsemen of the Apocalypse as they mount their steeds of slmery of hmm of pestilence and of w: Repair Parts For Furnaces and Stoves Almost All Makes During the rush perfod of Novem- ber it is impossible to take stove repair orders by telephone. cinity because he had Fries, Beall and Sharp 734 10th St. NW.
