SOCIAL CAMPAIGN
RALLY IN NEW YORK FATHER COUGHLIN'S ADDRESS (Receive May 23. 6.15 p.m.) NEW YORK, May 22 Father Coughlin this evening addressed 18,000 howling and jeering people in Madison Square in the third rally of his "National Union for Social Justice." The speaker denounced President Roosevelt's two latest actions, namely, in vetoing the Bonus Bill and in fixing the minimum wages for relief workers at 19 dollars a month. He urged the customary prosperity formula —expansion of money through Government control of credit and currency—hut took something of a veer to the left wing when he declared that if capitalism stood in the way of social justice it should be constitutionally voted out of existence.
