The Lesson of Long. (New York World-Telegram.) To understand the full significance of the life and death of Huey Long it is necessary to look | |beyond the man to the conditions that made his | |dictatorship vossible. ! Those were conditions of special privilege which equaled and in some respects exceeded anything existing elsewhere in State, city or nation. Glossed |over by a veneer of aristocracy, they were, under- neath, what we have seen in Tammany at its worst, | in Cincinnati under the Cox regime, in San Fran- | |cisco in the days of Abe Ruef, in Washington with | the Ohio gang. Such conditions furnish a fertile field for the reformer or the demagogue. It chanced that Long | was not a reformer but a demagogue. And as his political strength grew he developed the most ruth- | witnessed.

The index for August stood at 69.2 per cent, the highest since January, 1932, and 6.8 per cent above the corresponding figure last year.” Report of the Twelfth Federal Reserve Bank dis- trict, including the Western States—"The value of building permits continued upward, with a sub- stantial increase in residential permits. More than usual expansion was shown in fruit, canning opera- tions and the manufacture of wood products, notably furniture and fixtures. Cement production and textile output increased. Freight car loadings rose materially. There was sharp recovery of inter- coastal traffic and department stores sales gained.” And last, but equally significant, is the report of a stationer’s house in New York which says the sales of red ink have fallen off about 25 per cent in the last six months. If the League of Nations in far off Geneva, representing the great powers of the world, can see hope in the definite recovery reports emanating from this country, solace for those of us at home. THEY'RE SORRY NOW. The death of Huey Long may have had something |not always silent, at the manner in which the Stand at BUS DEPOT. there surely should be some; Had there been in Washington, during the des- willing to wink at the need for reform, Huey Long would have become more than a Presidential pos- sibility. He would haye become a Presidential probability. But such was not the administration in Wash- |ington, and therefore the most powerful brake on ilhe ambition of Long was the reform policy of | Roosevelt. Out of that grew Long’s bitterness toward Roosevelt. Roosevelt stood in his way. A re- former blocked a demagogue and a dictator. Long is dead.

Scarcely had Long been assassinated when Cough- lin ran down to Hyde Park for a secret conference with President Roosevelt. The Father, who never in the past failed to have plenty to say against the President, refused to comment when he left the conference except to explain he could not discuss the matter.
