Thrills New Britain Party On
 Maine Fishing Trip y

Returning today from a weeks fishing trip to Maine, Deputy Sheriff Martin H. Horwitz, Constable John s. Recer and Policemen William S. Strolls and Thomas c. Dolan report ed successful outing, although the first four days experience was dis couraging, nobody in the party hav- ing been able to do anything in the way of hauling the hnny rascals from their watery beds. Their luck changed, however, and all were well satisfied with the results of their de- termination to bring home some- thing besides healthy tan.
 Making the trip in Constable Re- COTS automobile, the fishermen were somewhat inconvenienced bys the breaking of an axle but they had the good fortune to have reached their camp before the accident happened. Making repairs brought them face to face with conditions which impress ed upon them the disadvahtage of being 50 far from the travelled way, it being necessary to do considerable telephoning before new axle was obtained. The axle itself cost $9 but the expense of sending for it and putting it in place ran the bill up to s22.
 Bear Outside Cabin
 Early one morning, Policeman De- Ian was awakened by strange scratching and rubbing noise against the side of the cabin in which he and Policeman Strolls were sleeping. Both officers realized that all the authority they have in New Britain would avail them naught in.this in- stance. for a big black bear, brows- ing about the woods was separated ifrom them by only the wall of the cabin.
 Reverting to type, the two police men made their way to the wood pile near the fireplace and armed themselves with stout clubs, not round and smooth like their night sticks but probably just IS effective. Jumping back into their hunks they lay in wait for Brun to break down the door without the formality of a search warrant. The big fellow ap- parently thought better of it, how ever, for soon the expectant police- men heard the welcome sound of heavy paws thrashing of into the woods and for the remainder of their stay their sleep was unbroken.

LONG VS. RANSDELL, BATTLE TO BE HOT Louisiana to Vote on PerSonai-
 ties, Not Issues

New Orleans. Sept. IF FNTbe race for a United States senate seat between Sen. Joseph E. Ransdell and Gov. Huey P. Long has aroused Lou isiana to high political pitch.
 There are ho outstanding legis- ,tative issues involved, and the cam paign has become a battle of person. alities to be decided at the primary September g..
 Long says vote for him means B vote for good roads, while Rams dell retorts that he stands more for good roads than does Long.
 Ransdell points to his long legis- lative record, and ~Adeclares Ransdell "has been sleeping in Washington for 30 years"
 The governor. sought to poke fun at the senator's goatee by referring to him as Feather Duster" Rans- dell.
 Ransdell promptly made the feather duster his campaign emblem, accepted a mammoth duster from women voters at a rally and said he would use it to sweep clean Lou isiana politics.
 Newspapers fighting the gover- nor, cartoon his silk pajamas in which he received German naval officer on courtesy call and charge that the governor wishes to be "em- peror of Louisiana" Almost the en- tire daily pfess. of the state opposes Long.
 The two men are strikingly differ ent in type.
 Ransdell, who went to Washing ton 31 years ago when Long was only six years old, possesses great dignity and has the manners of a Lord Ches- terfield. He campaigns on an imper- sonal plane with a soft voice and a guarded tongue
 Governor Long, born and bred in the red hills of middle Louisiana, comes of poor farmer stock and is proud of it. His tactics are spectac- \ ular, and bis speech and manner are ruthless.
