the most desperate and dramatic
fight ever witnessed in the Sen
ate of Louisiana, the Locke anti
racing bill was passed by that
body by vote of Il to 19.
The Senate took up the con-
sideration of the measure at J.

ant Governor Lambremont an
nounced that the measure had
received the necessary majority
and was passed.
Senator Smart, who got up

the bill:
