HUEY LONG DOES NOT KNOW REAL
 RAMOS GIN FIZZ
Bartenders of New York Sheer at Huey Over
 His Preparation

New York. July 26.-UP)-Does Sen. Huey P. Long actually know how to make a Ramos gin fizz? A little embarrassed, for certainly all tradition says the senior senator from Louisiana should know, New York bartenders joined today in saying that he does not.
 The bartenders were shocked by the Kingfsh's addition of vanilla extract to the drink that was orig mated by that celebrated New Or leans bartender, Ramos, and has since spread over all the world. 4 gin fizz with vanilla extract in it may be a gin fizz, but is not a Ramos gin fizz, the bartenders said Rotten Says Bartender q have known how to make a New Orleans gin fizz for 20 years said Truly O'Connor, head bar tender at the Waldorf-Astoria. What, vanilla extract? I dislike to use such an undignified word in such an institution as the Waldorf, but the only adequate word I can think of is rotten"
 Hans, the head bartender at Lee Chumley's, was bitterly disillu- stoned when informed that Lou isiana senator had said vanilla ex- tract should be put into a Ramos gin fizz.
 Get out of here, everybody" he said. Let me alone with my sor- row."
 Longs Bartender Wrong
 Long yesterday imported New Orleans bartender to shake up a genuine Ramos gin fizz He gave out this recipe as the O'Reilly: An ounce of gin, juice of half lemon and half a lime, tablespoon of powdered sugar, two dashes oi orange flower water, white of an egg, milk with spot of cream, g dash of vanilla. Ice and shake 1C minutes.
 Dispatches from New Orleans reflected the greatest indignation There is positively no vanilla in a gin fizz, they said. Some of the Kingfish's many enemies there said he knew nothing about refined drinks.

I drawled. "I hope to God I might be struck dead if that isn't the whole truth-the whole expose of the whole business" Patton's story was enlivened by anecdotes about the marriage of his daughter, Bessie, and by 8 stump speech against the utilities bill.
 "Prosperity cannot return through obstruction" he shouted, waving his fist. :,
 Patton testified Carpenter al ways referred to him as Cousin Nat" and that the utility official was pleased because he intended to vote against the death sen tence."
 Young Carpenter once came into his office and saw 8 set of books on diseases of horses and cattle.
 "I said, Son, you don't need to buy them. I'll give you two"
 On Sunday, June 30, the day be- fore the house voted, he said he and Mrs. Patton went on an auto mobile trip to Annapolis.
 Have you made any invest ments lately?" asked Chairman Hugo l.. Black, d., Ala.
 Well, I bought four of those baby bonds at $75O each. That's about all I've been able to save, v he said.
 How much did you bring from Texas?"
 "$6O0."
 "What happened to it?"
 "We used it up."

TERRE HAUTE IS

Terre Haute, Ind. July 26-(U. P.)-Federal conciliators to-day were spurred to renew efforts to settle the prolonged strike at the Colum bian Enameling and Stamp ing Company plant because of fears of violence when union coal miners leave the mines for the weekend.
 Illness of T. N.

 Hence it was considered doubt full if he could stand the strain of work in the field, though he never has hesitated to exert himself to the limit in any cause he for warded.
 Feeling High In India Feeling is high in many parts of India because of outbursts by Mussolini and other Italians against the colored people of Ethiopia. It is urged by many that India can not remain completely aloof in the Italion- Ethiopian crisis. l Such feeling would be calculated, if it magnified, to give pause to either England or France. with great olonial possessions in Asia and Africa, in event of a bloody war in Ethiopia.
 Italy has been reported as try ing to win the fealty of Moslem tribes in Christian Ethiopia. How ever, teh thiopian government in- l timated recently that it was com | pletely assured of the loyalty to Emberor Halle Selassie of all Mos lem Philippians.
 League To Be Called Geneva, July 26-(UP)-Maxim Litvinov, Russian foreign minister, was expected to send a call to members of the league of nations council today for a meeting next week to consider the Italian Ethio- 1 plan crisis, one of the gravest which has ever confronted the league.
 A telegram summoning the meeting, in Litvinov's name as president of the council, was pre- pared by the secretariat to be sent to each of the IA nations repre- sented on the governing doby.
 Premier Pierre Laval of France announced at Paris last night that the meetinng would be held next Wednesday. Here the day men, toned was Tuesday. However, league regulations provide that five days must elapse between call and a meeting.
 The councillors will have as a basis for their talk two notes, one from Ethiopia, one from Italy, both delivered yesterday.
 Ethiopia demands active inter- vention to prevent Italy from att tacin git.
 Protested Italy's Stand It was understood the note also protested Italian military prepara- tions in East Africa and denounced alleged war-like intentions.
 Italy'S note offered to continue to negotiate settlement of respon- sibility for frontier clashes in East Africa. It blamed Ethiopia for the failure of past negotiations.
 Tn some quarters unfriendly to Italy's policies, the note was seen as maneuver to limit the coun- cils action at next weeks meeting.
 The note emphasized that under the council resolution naming a conciliatino board, frontier clashes alone were to be considered. Broader issues, the real cause of the trouble, such as delimitation of the frontiers and Ital's eager ness to expand its influence, were to be ignored. The negotiations failed when an Ethiopian pleader, addressing the commission, insisted on including broad issues.

 Eep. George Huddleston, d., Ala. whose vigorous objections to the presence of Dozier De Vane, power commission solicitor, and Benja- min Cohen, power expert. led tc hasty adjournment of the first meeting, said he would continue his protests,

N 1T thought it would be fair to the great state of Texas and my family that I come here and make a statement" the colorful Texan told the committee Investigating lobbying against the Wheeler Ray burn utility bill.
 Reports Intrigued x The senate investigators, delving into all aspects of the $1.209, 900 lobbying campaign against the bill, have been intrigued by reports that John w. Carpenter, president of tho Texas Power and Light com pany, gave a "box" to a congress- man few days before the house vote.
 ~ Patton, who insisted on standing before the committee instead of tcking the chair reserved for wit nesses, figured the two packages he brought with him might ex- plain all.
 He wore a blue suit, stiff collar, white shirt and black bow tie.
 In testimony yesterday, Carpen- ter and Joe A. Worsham, counsel of the Texas firm, said the "box" might have been box of cigars or a bundle of books on livestock raising. Swinging his arms and turning frequently to face spectators who crowded the room, Patton testified he was an old friend of Carpenter. ' Patton said the box he brought 10 the committee was the one giv- en him by Carpenter several days before the vote.
 only Nickel Cigars
 'They're nickel cigars" he said.
 "There were. 50 of them, and I'd like to have never gotten rid of thom."
 k He said he took the books to Carpenters hotel to give them to the utility executives son. While he was in the room, he said, young Carpenter spoke up and said:
 "Here, MT. Patton, have a cigar Have two or three. Nom doesn't like the smell of the smoke. You might as we'll take the whole box How about it. Dad?"
 Patton said Carpenter agreed and Mrs. Carpenter wrapped the box in a newspaper.
