First intimation of the special
session came on the unexpected
arrival in New orleans last night
from Washington of Senator Huey
P. Long, the Senator. riding an
airplane for the first time in his
life. stepped gingerly from the
Eastern airliner at ShuShan Air
port with the declaration that
he talked with Governor Allen"
and learned that he planned to
do something about the New
Orleans financial situation"
Though the Senator denied
any action was planned to remove
T. Semmes Walmsley as mayor
of New Orleans, unconfirmed re-
ports circulated that this would
be one of the aims of the special
session.
Repeal of the State PWA act
was also forecast. This act, passed
at the last special session gave the
State control of all Federal loans.
AS a result Louisiana has received
practically nothing of the four
billions dollars workS-relief fund.
And Louisiana State University, the
Senator's pet" institution recent
ly applied for Federal funds to
build additional units to the
school.
