! Special Session Seen.
Political observers today saw a
strong possibility Of quick special
session of the Legislature, in the event
that Long failed to gain his point in
the current dispute with the city.
The Senator, who was in complete
control of the recent Assembly session.
commented repeatedly that II hostile
New Orleans precipitated court tests
of his legislative actions, he would re-
assemble the Legislature to broaden
the States power over city affairs.
The city has already taken to court
and halted by injunction the func-
tioning of q new police board pro-
vided for by a recent legislative act
and has indicated that a similar at
tack will be made on Senator Longs
action Of yesterday in appointing
State assessors to Supercede the 10
cal elected assessors in charge of
property valuations for tax purposes.
Court deputies late yesterday finally
penetrated the inner Sanctum of
Longs war headquarters atop the
Roosevelt Hotel, after passing through
lines Of hired bodyguards, and served
the court order on the Louisiana
'KingfSh." .----
Long Declines Comment.
The Senator tossed the ultimatum
on table. chatted few minutes, and
then dismissed the process servers. He
made no comment.
Legal circles wondered how the
order could concern Long, as Gov. Al
len, and not he, was legally re-
sponSible for calling out the troops.
1t was another matter to find the
adjutant general and serve the re-
straining order on him.
Deputies who Travelled out to the
| military barracks were refused ad-
mitance by sentries. The papers still
were unSeryed today.
In asking that the restraining order
be directed to Long, the petitioners
asserted that although the Senator
was neither peace nor law officer of
the city or State, he had secured the
''servile consent and approval" of Gov.
Allen to take over the powers of the
Governor and rs himself exercising
and performing the same unlawfully,
| tyranically and high-handedly."
Edward Rightor, one of the attor-
neyS preparing the petition and Bit
ter enemy of Long, said that if the
troops were not withdrawn Long and
Fleming could be jailed for contempt
Of the court.

UNEMPLOYED
PLAYERS TO
APPEAR HERE
With Government Aid,
Their Company Will
Present ''The Patsy"

Officials of the Civilian Conserva-
ton Corps and the Federal Emer-
gency Relief Administration will see
whas unemployed actors and actresses
have produced under the assistance
Of the New York State Temporary
Emergency Relief Administration
when they witness a production of
The Patsy" at $50 o'clock Thursday
evening at the National Press Club.
The performance will be given by
the first company" of the drama
division OF the New York State T. E
r. A. to show the officials the kind of
entertainment various companies OF
unemployed actors have been furnish
ing camps in the vicinity Of New York
City recently.
Harry L. Hopkins, Federal emer-
gency relief administrator, has been SO
impressed with the work of the New
York theatrical groups organized
among actors receiving relief through
the State, T. E. r. A. that he has
called the attention of other States to
the project.
THE possibility of inStituting work
division projects to employ idle actors
and actresses to put on plays in
c. c. c. camps merits your attention u
Mr.. Hopkins has informed the State
Emergency Relief Administrations of
Illinois and California.
There are far more actors in need
than we realized. Your of1ice might
consider employing some of these per-
sons. TO be distributed throughout the
Army Corps Area to entertain the
c. c. c. camps. A really great service
could be rendered to the c. C. c. men
al the same time We would be en-
ploying entertainers at their own pro-
feSSion.
There are three theatrical centers-
New York, Chicago and San Fran
cisco. These projects have been sue
cessfully started in New York, and
We suggest that the plan be consid-
cred in Chicago and San Francisco.
Col. Robert Fechner, director OF
emergency conservation work, has ar
ranged for the War Department to
furnish transportation for the theat-
rical groups from railway stations to
the c. c. C. camps and to provide
food and lodging while at the camps
The cost of the projects to the State
relief administrations would be solely
for wages. with employment TO be as
on all other work division projects
strictly on relief basis.
Mr.. Hopkins pointed out that the
Federal Emergency Relief Admins
trstion is not organizing a special
Nationwide project for the employ
ment of actors. Theatrical work
projects under State relief admins
trations for actors receiving relief have
been approved in principle by the F. E
r. A, but their initiation is up to the
State administrations, he stated. No
special amount of Federal funds has
been allocated for the project. States
may use some Of the Federal funds
granted them for general relief pur-
poses If they wish.
The performance Thursday evening

various branches of the Government
