SENATOR LONG
 WAS GIVEN ONE
 GOOD THRASHINC
New Orleans Turned Him Down Flat in the Vote
 Tuesday

New Orleans, Jan. 24.-(UP).-- Senator Huey F. Long, loser in 4 local election which robbed him of his last stronghold. fought bitterly today to stave off a complete disin- tegration of his once all-powerfu; political machine.
 While his enemies gathered from the south parishes to cele- brate his first defeat since he rose to power, new returns from yester-- days election gave an increasing plurality to Mayor T. Semmes Walmsley, running for reelection. Longs candidate, John D. Klorer, was running a close race for sec ond place.
 Longs entire political future was at stake on the results, and se- cluded in his guarded hotel suite he loosened charges of wholesale fraud at the polls against his rivals ard said his candidate would insist upon run-off election provided complete returns did not give Walmsley majority and Klorer ran second. A run-off Is required by law where the leading candi- date does not have a majority, but heretofore, the second candidate al- ways has withdrawn. making run off unnecessary.
 Returns from 214 of the city's 262 precincts. showed that Walms- ley had 35.100. Klorer 22,S94. Francis Williams, third candidate. received 19.674.
 Longs control over the country parishes which originally were his stronghold. has evaporated and ob- servers believe that should he lose out in New Orleans, which casts one-third of the states total vote. he would be quickly reduced to political impotency.

NORA MAHANEY HARRIS MAY GET
 APPOINTMENT
Former Local Resident in Line For Place Held
 By Mrs Welch

Mrs Nora Mahaney Harris of New Haven, formerly of Water bury, vice chairman of the demo- cratic state central committee, is reported to be a candidate for the post of national committeewoman from Connecticut in the event that the present incumbent, Mrs Fannie Dixon Welch of Columbia. resigns. It is felt at the present time that Mrs SWelch may be obliged to resign from the national committee in view of the fact that she now holds the federal post of customs collector for Connecticut by virtue of recess appointment by President Roosevelt.
 A drive Is now on at the White House to have all federal office holders relinquish their places on the national committee. In view of the fact that National Committee man Archibald McNeil of Bridge port is head of the, PWA in Con- necticut, it is also likely that he may be obliged to fall under the knife"
 Mrs Harris was in Waterbury the day before yesterday and talked for quite 6 while with Town Chair man John H. Crary, who is a mem- Der of the state general committed

DRUGGISTS WON
 FIRST SKIRMISH
 IN THEIR BATTLE
State Liquor Board Has No Power to Refuse Any
 Permit

Hartford, Conn, Jan 24-(UP)- The state liquor control board has To power to refuse to issue drug gists' permits to dispense 'ntoxicat- ing liquors, Superior Court Judge Newell Jennings ruled today.
 The ruling was made Tn test case brought by Edward J. Murphy South Manchester druggists, who was refused a druggists permit on the grounds his application was not made out in proper form. The commission previously had ordered all drug stores under the same classification as package stores and therefore must procure package store permits.
 In an opinion asked by the state druggists from Assistant Attorney General Raymond A. Johnson. the latter stated druggists must have druggists permits in order to sell liuuor and compound prescriptions and that they would lose their H. censes if they did not.
 In his opinion, Judge Jennings said:
 "The existence of this opinion certainly placed the druggists in all impossible position. Under the opinion they could not even com- pound prescriptions without a druggists permit and the commis- sioners refused the druggists per init.
 "The druggist is recognized as one of the proper agencies of dis tribution under carefully formulat- ed regulations for the dispensing of liquor in drug stores. If these regulations do not work out satis- factorily, they can be changed by the next legislature. The ,commis- sion has no power to refuse all druggists permits and the answer to the question propounded Is mo-
 Attorneys for either side were advised to present certain stipula- .ions as to facts as quickly as pos. sible in order to hasten an appea. to the supreme court.
