Change Plans.

BATON ROUGE, La. october 81
Politics buzzed in Louisiana today with
Gov. Huey P. Long the the focal point.
In the midst Of it all, Gov. Long an
nounced he might take his seat in the
United States Senate probably next
February /" and forSake his oft repeated
declaration that he would not go to

Files Answer to Plea.
The Governors announcement came
after he had filed an answer to the
suit of Paul N. Cyr, who as lieutenant
governor brought custer action against
Long. and after Attorney General Percy
Saint had ruled that Senator Alvin o.
King had legally advanced from presi-
dent pro tempore of the Senate to lieu
tenant governor.
King already had taken the lieutenant.
governors oath today and he was paid
the salary.
THAT settles it." said Long. 1.-THE
whole thing is now cleared up. Cyr
is out and King is lieutenant governor
That straightens up all my difficulties
and as soon as can get several things
I have been working on attended to.
I probably will be able to clear out of
here about February l. make King Gov
ernor and take my seat in the Senate.
Refuses to Comment.
Gov. Long said he had no comment to
make on the bill of exceptions filed to-
day in the Cyr custer suit in the
Shreveport District Court. In his
answer to Cyr's suit, the Governor
pleaded lack Of court Jurisdiction and
lack of cause or right of action and
added:
THE said plaintiff. Paul N. Cyr, is
stopped in equity and in law from
bringing or prosecuting this writ or
from standing in Judgment herein"

I'VE are going to New York primarily
to Law our cards on the table-to tell
the Democrats of the East just what
we think out in Illinois. We expect
to confer with John j. Raskob and the
others and to tell them that, as we
see it, the Democratic party cannot
afford to 'pussyfoot' on the prohibition
question: cannot win if it does

even bring forth third party.
THE Democrats have fine chance
to win the next presidential election
the mayor continued. They can win
If they stand firmly for a candidate OF
the Al Smith type-the party must not
draw away from the views expressed
in its last platform.
Furthermore, there's the question OF
unemployment, which dovetails with
the question of prohibition. These
problems go hand in hand and must
be solved together Consider, for in

Governor Voices Criticism
of Tariff and Bureaus in
Boston Speech.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, October 3i-A sweeping
criticism of what he termed the Re-
publican party's failure to meet the
troubles of the day with a constructive
program was sounded here today by
Gov Albert c. Richie of Maryland
speaking before a luncheon gathering
Of the Democratic State Committee.
What has the Republican party to
say to the woman who asks where her
mans job Is now?" demanded Richie,
referring to the Republican campaign
promises.
Only a return to the sound princi-
pies Of the Democratic party could
save the day, the Governor said as he
entered into vigorous arraignment of
the national administrations handling
of the problems of the Western farmer.
the Southern cotton planter and the
Eastern manufacturers.
AssaiIs Tariff and Bureaus.
Tariffs which invite reprisals and
which destroy export trade when world
markets are what we need will not
make producer. manufacturer or con-
sumner prosperous" he said.
Assailing the increasing number OF
governmental bureaus imposed upon
an already overtaxed and overregulated
people" Gov. Ritchie said: I'VE still
have national prohibition imposed upon
us, although every one ought to see
now that it will not and cannot pro-
hibit and that return of this question
to the State is the only way out Of the
wilderness Of unhappy consequences
which have followed the eighteenth
amendment"
He charged the Government was
derelict in its duty in not warning the
country of the impending economic
crash, which, he said, might not have
been so bad had the Government
warned the country it was coming"
Discussing the agricultural situation
and price Sterilization, he charged the
Republican party had tried to lift the
Western farmer by his own boot
! straps.
