LONG TAKES CYR
FIGHT TO COURT
Seeks to Block Custer Suit
on Grounds of Failure
to Show Cause.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SHREVEPORT, La, November 3d.
What Gov. Huey p. Long calls Louisi-
ana's political comedy" moved from
the dress rehearsal stage to the court
room today.
A District Court hearing on Gov.
Longs exceptions to Lieut.. Gov. Paul
N. Cyr's claim to the Governors chair
gave the dispute a serious turn away
from the earlier scramble for the ex-
ecutive Offices in controversy.
The Governor seeks to block Cyr's
prosecution of an custer suit on grounds
that the bill of complaint fails to set
forth a cause or right of action.
October IA Cyr took the oath of
Governor of Louisiana and charged
Long had vacated the ONCE through his
election to the United States Senate
guard about the capitol to prevent an
official entry Of Cyr.
After Cyr took the Governors oath,
Alvin L. King, president pro tempore of
the State Senate, took over the
lieutenant govsrnorship, contending
Cyr's action had vacated that office.
The gubernatorial revolution pre-
cipitated a general clamor for the jobs.
Claimants in this State and others took
the oath of Governor, lieutenant gov
ernor and United States Senator-some
seriously and some facetiously.
Gov. Long failed to regard the matter
seriously until he was forced to call off
a proposed bond sale because bidders
were uncertain about who could sign
documents off1cially.
Todays hearing on the Governor s
exceptions to Cyr's claims was the first
step toward formal determination of the
status of all the States Governors
and all the States lieutenant gov
ernors."
