Assassin's Own Slaying
by Long Guards
BATON ROUGE. La., Sept. 11.

District Attorney John Fred Odom
after the slain dictator's secretary
had expressed a belief it grew out
of a plot in which lots were drawn

-r-Tn'i34a,"rared Earl Christenber
- ry, secr$21ry to the senator, 'that

Monday, while Senator Long was
in a grave condition in a hospital,
the inquest "was recessed after two
witnesses had testified-
"More witnesses have been ob
tained," the district attorney said.
"I do not wish to reveal, their
identity at this time, and I don't
know what new information, if
any, they will supply.
A case of this sort, In my opin
ion, should be thoroughly inves
tigated and we are going to un
earth every bit of evidence."

Asked if he would attempt to

- "That'' depends on what de
velops from the testimony."

BOSTON, Sept. 11. - (JP) - The
Daily Record in an interview with
the Rev. Charles E. Coughlln,
quotes the radio priest' as saying
Huey Long's death dashed the
hopes of republicans for a presi
dential victory in the next elec
tion. "At the most," the paper quot
es the priest as saying, "Huey
Long controlled only three
states."
These three states, the inter
view explains, composed what re
publicans hoped would be the
wedge to split the solid south.
"Regardless of what people may
have thought of his (Long's) me
thods I believe the man was sin
cere in his . motives," Father
Coughlin said.
The interview, obtained In
Great Barrlngton, where the
priest was visiting before he de
parted tonight for Detroit, carries
his denial of any alliance between
his National Union for Social
Justice and the "Share the
Wealth" movement sponsored by
Long.

- "I recognize his right to strike.

when racketeers harass innocent
people when they hire men ts
kill, when they organize squads in
the Labor temple to go out of
town a halt must be called."

T. M. Robins, army

from other cities on both sides the
Columbia river were in attend

to as low as V mill for the largest
consumers. He declared that to
date no contract for power had
been signed by the government

It will be up to each Individual

own transmission lines, connect
with substations and distribute
power, Colonel Robins said. . He
expressed the belief that the out

by John G. Winant today as im

recting the vast undertaking.
Winant, a former republican

its administrative set-up, Winant

them to participate in the federal
