WASHINGTON, January Ex-senator
Thurman disav0ws any formal consult
tation with Messrs. Carpenter and
Butler over the new election bill for
Louisiana. Neither has the Senator
any knowledge of how the Democrats
will vote. The proposed bill Is similar
to Mr.. Carpenters of last session, with
the exception that instead of having
the election conducted by registrars APP
pointed by Judge Wood, it shall be
managed by congressional commits
sionai or military officers. This point,
as well as the fate of the bill, is in great
doubt though it is known that the
president, if new election must occur,
prefers it should be conducted under
federal executive auspices.
