ORDEREDJY HUEY
State Headed for Govern
ment by Blackmail and
Extortion Declares Sen
ator Foe of the Kingfish
BATON ROUGE, I., Dec. (AP)
Louisiana 1 designed soon to un
dergo a metamorphosis as the result
of Huey Long's dictatorship, admin
istration proponent and opponents
agreed today.
There waa a difference of opinion.
however, concerning Its projected new
form.
Said Senator O. D. Davis of La Salle
parish :
"Before rery long, with the legis
lature and this Huey Long, Louisiana
la going to show the world we're
building up. We're going to come
from the frog pond to the south to
the flower garden of the world.
Foe Speaks Out
Said Senator George W. Lester, stern
foe of the Kingfish:
"If the present railroading of Long
continues we are headed for a com
plete government by blackmail and
extortion, placed In the handa of a
modern Nero."
Meantime, tut senate sped Long's
toward final enactment by sending
them to the finance committee, where
Long promised he would strike from
the parish school bill a provision gtv-
lng his dictatorship public school
teacher patronage. This "Joker" clause
waa revealed In the bill after printed
copies had been laid on the desks
and waa the object of an attack yes
terday by Representative Lester.
Final Passage Tomorrow
With the whole proceeding aa per
functory aa the fixing of a notary's
seal, the senate finance committee
had. orders to meet at 10 a. m. (C. 8.
T.) and approve the bills. There was
every prospect that the measures
would be stamped "approved" quickly
and returned to the senate for final
passage tomorrow.
With house concurrence In senate
amendments a certainty, that will be
all the legislature will have to do to
enable Long to hang a few more op.
position scalps to his belt, control
many more Jobs, and further punish
hla political enemies.
The bills were brought into the
senate last night from the house,
which passed them so fast that an
anti-Long representative declared the
voting machine ought to be water
cooled.
Calls Solons Stooges
Lester, Incensed, took the floor In
a one-man oratorical display and
called his fellow lawmakers "putty
faced Stoogea for bowing to the
whims and fancies of the dictator on
practically every legislative demand
he makes."
Lester, of New England extraction
and a Loulslanan by adoption, Is or
dinarily one of the quietest members
But, In contrast with his usual re
tiring nature, he burst forth In wrath
In hla lone attack on the "Kingfish'
with one of the most bitter philippics
ever delivered In the Louisiana legis
lature.
Hl n&rlsh. Went Feliciana, has been
a hornet's nest of the Long opposl
tlon where a year ago an enraged
citizenry burned the ballots In Huey
Long's congressional "private elec
tion and Lester has tenaciously
fought Long ever since he took his
seat two years ago.

FOR LUXURY TAX
TO PAY PEI
PORTLAND. Deo. 19. (JP) Al
though Governor-elect Martin yester
day denounced a proposed luxury tax.
county Judges and commissioners of
Oregon today endorsed a resolution
favoring such a plan to raise moaey
which would be apportioned to the
counties for care of tho needy and to
cover the present payment of state
old-age pensions.
There have been report In aeveral
quarters that a luxury tax will be
proposed to- the Oregon legislature
when It meets next month.
The 39th annual convention of the
Judgea and commissioners also went
on record opposing an diversion of
the gasoline tax or of liquor control
commission profits. The group ap
proved a bill which would not com
pel counties to reimburse the state
for uncollected taxes.
Relief administrative problems oc
cupied much of the time of the dele
gates today. Judge David F. Graham
of Malheur county suggested the ad
ministrative of all rel.ef be placed
within the Jurisdiction of the count?
courts. Judge O. S. Chsahlra of Uma
tilla county countered with the state
ment that "It la government money
that Is being spent and the govern
ment doesn't want any elective of
ficers spending federal funds.' The
matter did not come to a vote.
Opposition to the so-called "gin
marriage law" ana the statute p:o
vldlng that mala applicants for mar
riage licenses must produce a mel
Ical certificate, was voiced by t.e
county clerks and recorders of Ore
gon, also in session here.
This convention argued strong?
that these laws do no good, and
aim ply drive many couples to other
states, particularly Washington, to bo
married.
