O. K. Allen with the advice of Huey P. Long. No information was divulged on what use would be made of the 12 companies, including infantry, artill- ery and cavalry. New Orleans, July 31.—(#)—Senator Huey P. Long directed a pre-election attack on the city administration Tuesday, his national guardsmen holding the New Orleans registration office under partial martial law. More than a@ score of guardsmen ‘appeared at the city hall annex Mon- day night, battered in the door and took possession of the lists of names of qualified voters for the September congressional primary. Governor O. K. Allen, a Long sup- Porter, issued a proclamation estab- lishing partial martial law and ex- Plained that the action was taken to Protect the registrar's office from “insult and intimidation.” It applied only to a small area. Mayor T. Seemes Walmsley, bitter enemy of the Louisiana “Kingfish,” sat in his city hall office across the street at the time. He said: “It is apparent that they want to scratch the names from the registra- tion books under the protection of the militia. They already control the registration office here through state appointment of the local registrar.” ‘Just a Tea Party’ The night raid—‘“It’s just a tea Party,” said one of the militiamen on guard at the door—came suddenly. A detachment of militia, under Ad- jutant General Raymond H. Flem- ing, moved up to the building quiet- ly. They forced an entrance and the soldiers swarmed throughout the large ‘unlighted room. In the September primary, two con- §ressmen from New Orleans and num- erous other officials will be nominat- ed. Rival sets of candidates have been endorsed by Long and Walmsley. Mayor Walmsley threw down the gauntlet to the senator and offered to resign from his office if Long would resign as senator and enter a special election with him for Long’s office. ‘The senator unceremoniously refused to comment. In his hotel suite, from which he directs his political campaigns, Sena- tor Long sat closeted with Governor Allen and other state officials and di- tected the fresh attack. The “Kingfish” has conducted a stern campaign against Walmsley for the last two weeks, charging that the tity was a “cesspool of corruption.” Guardsmen were employed late in the night and early this morning handing out circulars headed “hon- est registration guaranteed.” The militia raid Monday night was the anniversary of a state of martial law declared just a year ago when national guardsmen were called out by Long in connecticn with the in- vestigation of charges of alleged fraudulent returns in the general election of November, 1932.

Let Mr. Mead come out here and try to get the farmers to leave their land while they are conversant with conditions in other states. He will be laughed at to his face and con- sidered a fit subject for some asy- lum. Out here we have plenty to eat and, were it not for the damnable Propaganda sent broadcast by cheap Politicians, the country would have no knowledge of the conditions in North Dakota because the home folks would be satisfied to peg along as they always used to do before it be- came the stamping ground of every worthless radical who was too lazy to do any useful work but found that his wild statements produced a chin music sweet to some who hated work and, at the same time, wanted to grow rich. No, very few farmers will be found in Dunn county who will leave. They know that years of drouth will usually be followed by better rain fall and © consequently, good crops. Dauntless Dunn. DISCLOSES RESPONSIBILITY Beulah, N. D., July 31, 1934. Editor, Tribune: We wish to inform you that the management of the Beulah Miners Baseball club had nothing to do with the article recently appearing in The Tribune criticising the management of the Bismarck Baseball club for not giving the Beulah Miners a game on the Bismarck grounds on Sunday. As managers of the Beulah club we have always found Mr. Churchill very fair in his dealings with us as man- ager of the Bismarck club, and we re- gret that any contrary impression has been gained by reading the article previously referred to in this letter.
