BATON ROUGE, La, October 49,
With p flourish of arms and the cita-
tion of precedents. Huey P. Long held
the Capitol against the siege Of two
other claimants to his job OF Governor
today.
Meanwhile, LouiSiana's executive re-
gime became complicated affair Of
Governors, Lieutenant Governors and
politics.
Long placed his armed State high
way police about the entrances to the
State Capitol. in the office Of the secre-
tary OF State and at the executive man.
sion to prevent Lieut.. Gov. Paul N. Cyr
from entering to press his claim to the
executive chair.
Long. charged the Governors recent
election to the United States Senate
vacated the State ONCE. Long is either
Governor or he Is Senator" Cyr de-
clared. but he Is not both Senator and
Governor"
Orders Surrender Of ONCE.
Tuesday Cyr voluntarily took the
Governors oath before a deputy clerk
at Shreveport, informed Long by letter
that he was the Governor now, and
ordered Long to surrender end "divest
yourself OF the appearance OF chief eX-
ecutive Of Louisiana"
Long made public the communication
and replied to Cyr, That l have the
honor to decline your demands in
toto"
As an Anti-climaX to the Long-Cyr
dispute, Walter A. Aldrich, an unem-
ployed resident of Shreveport, unheard
OF before in politics. took the oath of
once OF Governor and said he. too,
would file an custer suit against Long,
go 70 Baton Rouge and take over the
Capitol, as 1t was abandoned property"
If Cyr's claims were true.
Long Cites Promise.
Long. in q statement he issued last
n 1T. based his legal claim to keep his
Office on the point that he had prom
Used the people he would finish out his
term as Governor II they elected him to
the Senate and the fact that he had
not yet been administered the oath OF
the Senate.
He cited similar tardy arrivals In
Congress. including David B. Hill Of
New York, Hiram johnson OF California
and Robert NJ. La Toilette of Wiscon-
sin. which he said backed up his claim
that he could rightfully vacate the Sen
ate chair until next May. when his term
OF Governor ends. He said each con-
tinued his terms as Governor before
going to Washington.
Louisiana was held in wide suspense
in the battle of officialdom. and Long
gave orders fer his policemen to throw
Cyr out and put him in Jail II he
entered the secretary Of States ONCE
in any capacity other than that Of a
private citizen.
Names Lieutenant Governor.
Long now holds that Cyr vacated the
lieutenant governorship in taking the
Governors oath and has informed State
officials Alvin O. King of Lake Charles.
President pro tempore of the State
Senate, who took the oath as Lieuten-
ant Governor late yesterday, was in fact
the holder Of the office.
Long in his statement described Cyr'S
move as q comedy and mere political
fiasco." inspired by 'nefarious and un-
scrupulous politicians" attempting 70
throw his big paved roads and bridge
construction program into confusion.

JOBLESS CITIZEN STEALS SHOW
LONG-CYR GOVERNOR FIGHT
Walter Aldrich, Political Unknown, Says
Executive Chair Is Vacated by Both,
Takes Oath of Office.

Long has been a virtual prisoner in
the State since he broke. politically ana
personally. with DR.. Cyr soon after
their election in 1928 as Governor and
Lieutenant Governor, respectively, on
the same ticket.
During this time, however, Long fire.
quently has Travelled in all parts Of the
State, spending the greater part Of his
time in New Orleans.
DR.. Cyr's action in taking the oath
as Governor, observers point out, ap-
parently has tiled down" Long as a
political prisoner" Formerly Long
was afraid to leave the State for fear
Of possible "shake-ups" by his second
in command during his absence. Now
he Is afraid to leave the capital for fear
that DIR. Cyr will step in and take
charge.
Raymond H. Fleming, adjutant gen.
eral, returned to New Orleans yeSter-
day from Atlanta after a telephone
conversation with Long. He said that
he knew nothing about the sudden mo-
bllization OF troops at the capital soon
after DR.. Cyr was sworn as Governor.
Gov.-Senator Long, DR.. Cyr and the
troops naturally are attracting atten-
ton: but their show isn't what it used
to be. The unknown Aldrich has stolen
public attention from them.
The great questions now are: "Who
Is Aldrich?" Where does he come IMP"
