Pestilence Threatens

Santo Domingo, Sept. 8 tR-Santo Domingo, razed by hurricane last Wednesday which also took more than 1000 lives. today was fearful of another scourge-pestilence >
 Insufficient medical supplies, the filth of the uncleaned streets, and the lack of food and other nourish- ment all contributed to & condition which had native and visiting phy- sicians greatly worried. Cremation of bodies of the persons killed by the hurricane continued.
 The attitude of the physicians probably was best indicated in that all persons are taking every pro- phylactic injection possible. With the hospital survey unfinished it is known that there already are more than 1000 storm victims there who have grangrene or other infections, some of whom are beyond hope of ultimate relief.
 At ohe camp yesterday more than 1900 persons took antitoxin inocu- lations for typhoid. The medical sup plies are those sent here from San Juan, Porto Rico and from Havana, Cuba. and are serving the island re- public wonderfully.
 Streets to be Cleaned
 As a sanitary measure, the phy- sicians here feel that the city's streets should be cleaned ol all their debris. But the task is proving an impossible one, because there is not an automobile or truck, or wagon in the country which was not damaged in the hurricane.
 Ten trucks are needed badly, but there are not 10 trucks in all Santo Domingo in working order Two pos sible sources of supply for trucks is under consideration. one at Port Au Prince. Haiti, where United States marines have a number of trucks, and the other from Porto Rico, where 20 street cleaning trucks are available. Either solution probably would be quicker than attempting to

court Samuel Irby and James Ter rell. who have been held in seclu- sion since Thursday when they had planned to file suit against the gov ernor charging islander. s;5
 Service was made by Deputy United States Marshal Herbert Pat terson in the governors apartment at the Roosevelt hotel. 'N
 An! Hal" said the governor as he read the subpoena. This will interfere with my speeches All right, I'll be there"
 As court opened Governor Long appeared with guard of state highway police. Samuel 1rby was reported to be in the federal build ing. -..,..
 As the governor and his party started in the building, press pho tographers tried to take pictures, but the guards rushed them and held their cameras, -..-..
 Governor Long last night dra- matically whisked into his hotel suite and placed before a radio micro phone a man who claimed, to be Irby. Irby announced a week ago his intention of filing slander suit against Long. who is opposing sena- tor Joseph E. Ransdell in tonnorrows democratic primary.
 The man, introduced to radio listeners by Governor Long, read a prepared statement in which he said he had not been Kidnapped from Shreveport hotel early Thursday, but slipped away with a requested guard of state policemen after he found s2,500 under his pillow. He said he did not know why the money was placed there. Introduced to Man
 Newspaper men, called to'the gov ernor's hotel suite, were introduced to the man by the governor. but they said they did not know whether he was Irby because he wore a slouch hat and bowed his head. They said the man was rushed out into a freight elevator and then sped from the hotel in an automobile waiting at d olOG cuLIdllC
 One reporter said he attempted to follow the man and his escort into the elevator but was jerked out and his coat ripped. He said one of the escort drew a pistol and ordered the elevator operator to descend, at the same time slamming the door shut himself.
 Mystery still surrounded the dis appearance of James Terrell, di- vorced husband of the governors private secretary who was with Irby at Shreveport and dropped from sight the same night.
 Said Men. Released
 A federal court writ of habeas corpus returnable today demanded that the sheriff of Jefferson parish reelase Irby and Terrell. although the radio statement last night said that Irby had been released several days ago after being subpoenaed as witness in a case in that parish. A petition for the writ by Assistant At- torney General E. R. schowalter &C., cused Governor Long and state off, cers of conspiring to kidnap 1rby and Terrell.
 Irby, former chief chemist, recent ly was a witness in a secret investi- gation of the state highway depart ment.
 Two automobiles, one containing several men who witnesses said wore r,t;opoJ ,,,ord up;fnrroe oprAarAd at the Irby residence last night but departed on learning no one was at home. Mrs. Irby later returned and in response to inquiries. persons at the home said they could not ac- count for the appearance of the cars.

 Persian Comments
 The Persian representative on the council, spokesman of a Moslem people. expressed full confidence in the mandatory power and urged that the interests of the Arabs in Palestine be not neglected.
 Arthur Henderson. for the con- missioner in Palestine, in a state ment which he made public after the reading of the Procope report, said his government did not wish to add much to it's comments already pub lished. Mir. Henderson said he rec ognized the rights of the mandates commission to criticize.
 The British foreign secretary said he was glad M. Procope had empha- sized the difficulty of Britain's task. He also asserted that realization of the aims of the league in Palestine could not be achieved by action of the British government alone which must have the cooperation of the Jews and Arabs themselves.
 Marinkovitch Approves
 Marinkovitch, of Jugoslavia, sup plemented the Persian declaration withthe statement that one-tenth of the population of his country was Moslem. He expressed the belief that the rights of all people in Palestine could be protected without injury to any, but at the same time asked that the rights of Jews be we'll safe guarded. ., -es
 Mir. Henderson, in behalf of the mandatory power. expressed his thanks for the conciliatory nature of M. Hjalmar Procope's report and insisted that Great Britain recognizes the right of the mandates commits sion to pass judgment on the acts of the administration.
 In effect, the British secretary declared that while his recent re- joinder on the commissions criti- cisms was somewhat direct in phraseology his government under stood the commission attitude and would be glad to continue it's efforts to establish conditions in Palestine on which the peace and prosperity of all peoples there would be secur- ed.
 The Persian and Jugoslavian mem bers then expressed their full confi- dence in Great Britain as adminis- trator.

 guards were holding his arm. He broke the guards hold and struck the governor and the guards seized him again. With two armed men on either side of him but with him. self free. the reporter said the gov ernor struck him on the cheek. Later each apologized to the other.
 Asked about the encounter, Gov ernor Long said "A man came into my room and impersonated himself as federal officer and I told him to get out and he would not do 1t.
 Were any blows passed?" he was asked.
 The governor lifted his right arm and said:
 There was a little tussle"
 Wiegand denied pretending. to be an officer and said he had met the governor many times before and felt sure the governor knew him all the time.
 New Orleans, Sept. LP - Gov. Huey P. Long was struck on the nose today by William G. Wiegand. a reporter of the New Orleans Item, after the reporter said the governor had called him a profane name.
 The reporter had gone into the governors quarters in the Roosevelt hotel just ahead of a United states deputy marshal who had a subpoena for the governors appearance in federal court ill connection with the disappearance of Samuel Irby and James Terrell. As Wiegand entered the room he was seized by two bodyguards of the governor.
 Called Him Vile Names
 He said that as he was being held, the governor called him a vile name on two occasions. The reporter said he broke away from the guards and struck the governor. He declared the guards grabbed him again and the governor hit him twice in the face.
 The governor threatened to have the reporter arrested for imper- sonating an officer. but Robert S. Maestri. commissioner of conserva- ton. dissuaded the governor. Gov ernor Long then apologized to Wei gand for calling him the name and .Weigand apologized for striking the governor.
