UNREST Judge Says “Bullying” by Big Business Aids Long and Coughlin. B the Associated Press NEW YORK. April 24.— Federal Judge John C. Knox last night blamed “big business” with blindly attempting to “bully” the country into submission to its will and charged that this atti- | tude was furnishing fallow ground | for the “pernicious doctrines” of Sen- ator Huey Long and Father Charles E. | Coughlin. The dean of the United States Cir- euit Court, speaking before the Har- vard Alumni Association, asserted that “big business. as a whole, still wishes to have what it wants when it wants it.” | “Be sure of this,” he said, “if capi- talism persists much longer in the | belief that it is superior to the mass of humanity, and if it continues to exhibit the selfishness that heretofore amimated its being and which still atirs in its heart, the citadel of concen- trated wealth is in danger of serious impairment. * * *" } System Losing Favor. Citing the confused financial trails | left by utility companies, the “machi- | nations of Krueger and his ilk,” large | corporation bonuses to officials and | sale of bonds issued by “dishonest and | impecunious governments.” Judge Knox said it was not surprising that | officials of cities and States “are re- | sponding to the political opportunities | that Bourbonism furnishes them.” | “They recognize,” he said, “that | thousands upon thousands of people | who once had property and have it no more are unwilling further to fight, | bleed and die for the capitalistic | system. ! “The politicians _appreciate, too. that when millions of men and women | are on the dole and are without hope | of ever again having a property inter- | est in anything. thev have but little | reason to be readily regimented in support of big business i “Thank God. these persons. of whom there are 20.000.000 or more. have not become desperate, and I pray thai they will not become so. But this much is certain: Their minds have become fallow within which Father Coughlin and Huey Long can sow the pernicious doctrines they espouse, “My friends. I have said enough, I hope. to cause you to ask yourselves if the sins of capitalism have mnot made, and if they are not now making, large contributions to the possibility that Huey Long may run—and run well—for the presidency of the United Btates? Possibility of Change. “If you conclude that this is so. and 1t vou believe with me that unless economic conditions soon improve & substantial portion of the population may decide that it has little to lose. but may have something to gain from Huey's election. lend your arm to whipping capitalism into proper be- havier. * * * “So far as T am concerned. T have o faith in the nostrums of Huey Long and Father Coughlin. As between them and the men of finance who have impaired the theories of the capitalistic system.
