By the Associated Press. The White House is expected to greet with silence the challenge to an open debate which Senator Long, Democrat, of Louisiana, tossed - at President Roosevelt. Though the Louisiana Senator and the administration have long been engaged in a feud, the strategy of the latter has not included public replies to the assaults of Leng. Offering to “guarantee the crowds,” Long proposed yesterday that the President meet him in Louisiana or elsewhere to debate the New Deal. The challenge was voiced in the first Senate speech Long has made in two weeks. He indicated he was stirred to hurl it by newspaper headlines saying the President might soon visit Arkansas to support Senator Robinson, Democratic leader, who is up for re- and to open an anti-Long campaign in the South, “If Mr. Roosevelt has that idea.,” said Long, “why pick Arkansas. That election’s a long way off. That's next Fall, a year from now. There's an election in Louisiana in January. I don’t know how badly he's needed in Arkansas, but the anti-Long element ATTENTION AUTOMOBILE OWNERS The Aytomobile Financial Responsibility Law Takes .

C, TUES needs him mighty bad in Louisiana right now.” Offers Debate Topic. For a debate topic, Long suggested: * “What has become of the promises of the candidate of the Democratic party, and what can be expected in the future based on the character of the performance in the last two years?” A Louisiana platform would -be the ideal place to hold the debate, Long said, but he added that if he could “accommodate the gentleman” else- where, “I am at his beck and call.” “As & humble servant,” he said, “I am ready to bow in respectful service to the learned Chief Executive of the United States” At the same time, Long told news men he would offer his “share-the- wealth” program as an amendment to the tax bill approved yesterday by the House. Long began his speech by asserting that he had been a “model of perfec- tion from the standpoint of silence in action” recently. He then read a number of headlines from a huge pile of Sunday newspapers, including one which read, “F. D. R. Will Invade | Arkansas to Assist Anti-Long Cam- paign.” Once quoted as saying he would try to defeat Robinson for re-election, Long said he only undertook “to fight | on my own soil,” and that “I never THIS UNUSUAL PLAN BACKED BY EXPERIENCE RESOURCES OF 24 YEARS $24,000,000 invade foreign territory.” He added he “didn’t know the President con- ceded me a territory so large.” Earlier today, when Long was queried about the President’s trip, he answered with a blunt “I'm not in- terested in all that speculation.” Some months ago Senator Long said he would go into Arkansas to oppose Robinson’s return to the Senate. Now, however, he refuses to reit- erate that intention. “I have nothing to say,” he replied to that question. As to presidential plans to visit Hot Springs National Park, Long said: “I'm satisfied the people in that section will be glad to see him. They probably will like to know what's happened to all those promises he made.” In 1932 Long stumped Arkansas for Senator Hattie Caraway. Her successful campaign was hailed by many as stressing Long's political power in the State.
