JOHNSON SCORES 1928 NAPOLEONS Former Eagle Chief, in Book, Says New Deal Foes Split Adherents. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 29.—The “old order” enemies of the New Deal, Gen. Hugh Johnson says, follow the Na- poleon strategy of “divide and con- | quer—split- the friends of recovery into small quarreling factions and then absorb each in detail.” In his memoirs of his public service —“The Blue Eagle From Egg to Earth,” published today by Doubleday, Doran—the former N. R. A. adminis- trator writes: *“The friends of the: New Deal out- number its enemies by many thou- sands to one. But the few enemies have advantages. They are powerful and they do not scatter their shot.” “Can’t Go Back.” In arraigning these ‘“enemies” of the New Deal—in one of the few parts of the book not previously published in magazine form—Johnson says the frequent cry of “take off the brakes” means only “back to 1928.” “The country,” he says, “simply cannot do that. Nineteen twenty- eight was pregnant with 1929. * * ¢ Before we follow old leaders back to the methods practiced in 1928, let us recall exactly what those methods were.” Lists His Aversions. Some of them, Johnson concludes, were: “They permitted child labor and JTesisted change. ¥ “They had a system which exploited agriculture to the verge of ruin for the benefit of certain industries and industrial areas * * *. “They successfully prevented labor organization and collective bargain- Ing on any but a limited front. “They permitted the operations of banking to become a racket * * *. vy “They permitted operations of the sstock and other exchanges to proceed {like gaming tables and never turned a hand to warn our people that in- \ vestments there were like bets against the turn of loaded dice.” FofSyt Prés Once again the glorious 3 8 { Pessimistic BUSINESS CONDITIONS BAD, SAYS SCHWAB.
