SHERIFF ASKS
SEARCH FOR
BILL YOUNG

Fearing that w. E. (BilD Young,
irrigation district director for the
Calipatria division might have be-
come the victim of foul play, Sher-
iff r. w. Ware announced this af-
ternoon that he is sending out an

missing director and his automobile
Young left here between 7 and 7:30
o'clock Saturday night to visit his
family in San Diego and has not
been heard of since that time.
1t is known that he carried an
unusually large amount of money
with him when he left here for San
Diego and for that reason it is
feared that he might have met with
foul play along the road to the coast
city.

his destination Saturday night was
sent to authorities heer by his wife
on Monday morning and since that
time a quiet but effective search
has been conducted by deputies
from the Sheriff's office and district
employees as well as by San Diego
county officers, with no result.

LOUISIANA PREPARING FOR FINAL
HONORS TO BE GIVEN HUEY LONG
Funeral Services To Be Held Tomorrow Followed By
Burial On Lawn Of Splendid New Capitol
Which He Erected

will come burial at 4 p. m. tomor-
row.
Even while Longs body was be-
ing prepared to lie in state in the
state Capitol, his enemies we're
seeking to compromise their differ
ences and united to scatter his sub
leaders.
Long will be buried beneath
marble slab on the lawn of the Cap
itol. National guard troops will be
guards of honor.
Behind the display of grief OF
Longs sub-leaders and the conspic-
uouS lack of any great public grief
for the assassinated dictator, bitter
political wars seemed to be brew
ing. First and foremost was the ne
cessity of the organization, which
holds almost every elective and ap-
pointive office in the state, to fight
off the anti-Long organizations and
individuals vino were seeking a
meeting ground for union. The Sec
ond may be a fratricidal quarrel
among the leaders for the mantle
Of the "kingfish."
Plans Kept Secret
The Long leaders surrounded their
plans with the utmost secrecy, po-
litical technique inherited from the
boss" Gov. O. K. Allen was in nom
inal command of the organization,
but looming beside him was Sey-
mour Weiss, president of the New
Orleans dock board, organization
treasurer, and one of the Long pol
iticians under federal indictment in
charges of income tax fraud. Other
powerful figures we're Lieut.. Gov.
ameS A. Noe, James O'Connor, pub
lie service commissioner, and Mrs.
Alice Grosjean Tharpe, supervisor
of public accounts and Longs for
mer secretary.
Should the Capitol rotunda prove
too small for the crowds, the body
will be moved to the dais at the top
OF the Capitol steps. The honor
guard, in addition to the militia,
will comprise 40 uniformed mem
bers of the Louisiana State Uinver-
sity band.
The funeral will be held in the
Capitol. The Rev. Gerald l.. K
Smith, who gave up a fashionable
Shreveport church to organize the
Louisiana Share-the- Wealth club,
will preach the funeral grafton. The
pallbearers will be Allen, Noe, Weiss
Allen Ellender, speaker of the house,
Supreme Court Justice John Four
net, and Robert w. Maestri, con-
servation commissioner.
Smith said Longs Share-Uhe-
Wealth movement would not die
with him.
I'VE shall avenge the death of
Senator Long with ballots in Janu-
ary," he said. After the January
election I shall tour the United
States, visiting Share e-the-Wealth
societies and laying the foundations
of a great mass movement
All the Long sub-leaders pledged
loyalty to Allen, but how long
their peldges would remain opera
tive was problematical.

BabsOn Says
Living Costs
Sure To Rise

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass, Sept.
II. U.P)-Living costs already are
starting upward and further rise
lies ahead in the next few months,
Roger w. Babson, the statistician,
said today.
In his annual Question Box" in
connection with the 22nd annual
national business conference, Bah
son said this trend should be
watched carefully, because it is of
extreme importance that the cost
of living does not get out of hand
right now
The President obviously will do
all in his power to keep living costs
within bounds" he said. Such an
insistence on his part is both sound
economics and good politics"
In answer to a question regard
ing the effect Of Huey Longs death
on the general political situation
and his share the wealth" move
ment, Babson said that bullets
never killed an idea" and whatey-
er value lay in Longs program
would persist despite his assassin
alton.
Personally" Babson continued,
II consider that his 'share-the-
wealth movement was on the Wane.
His third party threat was also
fading fast"

BATON ROUGE, La, Sept. Il.
U,P) - The Louisiana legislature,
which in Sen. Huey P. Longs life
time did his slightest bidding, met
today to approve final plans for
burial of their aSsassinated leader
on the sweeping, shrub-dotted
grounds OF the skyscraper capitol
which he built.
AS soon as final approval was OBJ
tanned for the burial resolution-and
for the 80 new laws which Long was
jamming through the legislative
mill at the moment of his death -
formal ceremonial rites were to be-
gin.
For 81 hours Longs body will lie
in state within a flag-draped cas-
ket on the broad Capitol plaza. Then
