(Contlnued From First Fage0
Of Mayor Walmsley, had offered to get
his property unzoned from residential
property to business property for
81 900. Oaks said he did not pay
the thousand and his application for
unzoning was rejected, but that his
neighbor had his place unzoned. The
witness expressed fear at testifying
as he claimed that he had been shot
at by three men in an automobile
one night for complaining about his
failure to have his property unzoned.
After the hearings had adjourned
until 2 pm. Tuesday. Mayor Walmsley
issued a statement denying the testi-
mony concerning him.
1T has been called to my attention
that Mr.. Long had man engaged in
the lottery business make some state
ment that $50 a week per company
was paid to me-" said the WalmSley
statement. Il am sure people who
know me and who had dealings with
me know this Is an absolute falsehood.
Denied by Walmsley.
Il wish TO call attention to the pub
lie to the facts that the party did not
charge that I had been paid the
money, but that was supposed to get
it. I most positively desire to state
that have never received any of this
money, in the first place. In the sec
ond place, have never been aSsoci-
of
In my life"
Carroll Walmsley also issued a fiat
denial to oaks testimony.
"Mr. Oaks statement in the Inves-
| tigating Committee this morning that
had offered to get a piece of prop
erty unzoned for him for 81 ,0O0 is an
absolute lie, and he knew this when
he began to qualify that statement in
advance by saying that it was simply
a question of his word against mine"
An unidentified woman, who said
she operated house Of girls, said she
! paid dollar a day to the police for
protection, and that if she failed to
pay of, policeman would come and
stand in front of the place. ,
A witness giving his name as Louis
Sahut, testified he had formerly oper-
ated beer parlor with slot machines
| and paid SO weekly for the privilege.
He said if he had not been voting the
WalmSley ticket he would have had to
pay $12.
Howard Is Called.
Near the close of the testimony
Senator Long ordered a subpoena is
sued for Alvin P. Howard, vice presi-
dent of the Times-Picayune Publish-
ing Co. and the Hibernia National
Bank, after a witness had said an
"old Howard lottery was being oper-
ated.
II don't want all this to go out over
the radio without his denial-if it
isn't true-just because his grand
father ran the old lottery" Long said.
Long introduced into the evidence
an article published by the Item
Tribune on March 18 which said that
gambling places were as wide open
as the mouth of sleeping police
man." Merlin Kennedy, who wrote
the article, was Subpoenaed.
A few other witnesses and Huey
closed down the hearing until Tues
day afternoon when he promised to
show more of what is going on in
New Orleans" He stepped out into
the ante-room, his troops took their
positions around him and he stalked

If grandfather followed the direc-

he had set his heart on grandma, he
copied faithfully a form letter, as
follows:
Dear Miss Adams: I am con-
scious that it may be presumptious
for me to address you this note;
yet feel an open declaration of my
feelings toward you Is due to my
own heart and my future happi-
ness. I first met you to admire;
your beauty and intelligence served
to increase that admiration to a
feeling of personal interest; and
now, am free to confess, your
virtues and graces have inspired in
me a sentiment of love-not
sentiment that finds its gratifica-
ton in the civilities of friendly
social intercourse but which asks
in return a heart and hand for
life.
This confession I make freely
and openly to you, feeling you will
give it all the consideration it de-
cannot cause you pain, but If any
circumstance of weight with you,
any interest in another person,
any family obstacle, forbid you to
encourage my suit, than leave it
to your candor to make such reply
to this note as seems proper
shall wait your answer with some
anxiety, and therefore hope you
may reply at your earliest con-
venience.
Believe me, dear lady, with feel
ings of true regard,
Yours most sincerely,
HARRY HASTINGS.

SOVIET SPECIFIES
TERMS TOLEAGUE
Russia Is Willing to Join if
Eastern Locarno Can
Be Completed.
BY the Associated Press.

by IHe ASSOCldIeu FTeSS
MOSCOW, September 1.-The
Unior, of Socialist Soviet Republics
would poin the League of Nations will
ingly If the proposed Eastern Locarno
security pact can be completed, it was
officially indicated tonight.
The Soviet government, it was un-
derstood, regards the Eastern Locarno
agreement, strongly urged by France,
as necessary to assure peace in East
ern Europe.
Execution of this pact, Soviet Of
ficials have stated repeatedly, would
make Russian membership in the
League necessary.
Litvinoff Pushes Pacts.
France has commitments under the
old Locarno pact, it has been pointed
out here, which would make it impos-
Sible for her to sign any new agree
ment unless it provided for submission
of problems in dispute to the League.
The signing of peace pacts with all
RussiaS neighbors and with other
powers, either singly or in groups, has
been the policy guiding Maxim Lit
vinoff, Soviet commissar for foreign
affairs, especially since the London
Economic Conference.
Discouraged by lack Of progress OF
the Disarmament Conference under
League auspices, the Soviet turned to
peace pacts as the best means of pre-
venting war.
It was also indicated that the U. S.
S. r. would be willing to enter the
London Naval Conference in 1885 If
its agenda were to include political
questions.
In other words, Russia would par
ticipate if the conference were in
clined to discuss the problem of the
Pacific, in which the Soviet has intense
interest because of strained relations
with Japan over the Chinese Eastern
Railway and the establishment of the
separate Kingdom of Manchukuo in
Mancnuria.
U. S. S. r. Building Ships.
The Soviet would enter the 1885
conference despite the conviction in
official circles that the parley has lit
tie chance of succeeding, it was II d.
Gated.
Inasmuch as the Soviet's navy is re-
garded as inadequate to protect its
long coastline, the U. S. S. r. Is now
building ships for defense.
Hence, official circles indicated,
Russia would have no interest in any
naval conference that would limit the
Russian navy without making political
agreements adequate to lessen the
danger of war.
