TAKES FLOOR
PREPARED To
WAGE BATTLE
'Kingfish" Hoping To Delay
Action On Continuation After
Sunday Deadline
OTHER MEMBERS ANCERED
Louisiana Senator Antagonizes
Comrades By Sharp Reference
To Their Votes

WASHINGTON, June IL W.D
Huey Long blocked senate action
on NRA extension today with q
filibuster which was still going
strong after he had held the floor
four hours.
Worried Democratic leaders de-
termined to hold the senate i'm q
night session if necessary to wear
down the kingfish. Only three
days remain before the recovery
act expires.
WASHINGTON, June u. W.D -
Sen. Huey P. Long OemD Louisi-
ana, raised an implied filibuster
threat against the NRA resolution
in the senate today.
Long made his threat by saying
that he doubted that this matter
can be Strengthened out before
Sunday night"
The National Recovery Act un-
der which NRA operates expires
this coming weekend.
Long took the floor after the
senate had refused, SO to A to
table a motion to reconsider the
vote by which it yesterday adopted
the Gore amendment to make gov
ernment employees earning $4,000
or more subject to senate confir-
nation.
This opened the way for recon-
sideration of the amendment,
which administration leaders were
anxious to delete.
Long gave every evidence of an
intention to talk at length. He re-
fused to yield for more than q
question even when barbed re-
marks that he tossed at the oppo-
sition brought other members to
their feet.
Long jibed Sen. Kenneth Nickel
lar, Dem) Louisiana, for voting
with him on the Gore amend
ment and reminded that McKellar
some time ago said he would never
follow Longs leadership on any
question
IF this motion prevails it will
show that 1 am powerful mem
ber of this body" Long said. "It
will show that senator's here fol-
low my whim."
Rebukes Senator
He referred to the fact that he
had made the motion to reconsider
yesterdays vote, a strategic move.
AT one time he rebuked Sen.
Nathan l.. Bachman, CDem.) Ten
nessee, for changing his vote.
Bachman interrupted:
Il resent the reference of the
+, senator from Louisiana to me-"
McKeller also protested, saying
that he was doubtful of my own
position" when he found himself
voting with Long. Mcclellan voted
against administration leaders.
Vice President John N. Garner
| announced the resolution OF the
motion to table the Gore amend
ment. He gave it as 81 to A. The
total voting to table was corrected
later to SO, composed of 10 Demo-
Gratis and II Republicans.

and it isn't likely he will attempt
to pass one of those"

DAM
BILL ARGUED

WASHINGTON, June IL. U.P)-
A dispute over the bill validating
the Parker Dam project on the
Colorado river developed in the
house rates committee today dur
ing hearing on a rule to give
right-of-way to the emergency
measure.
Chairman Riley Wilson of the
house flood control committee de-
MED that the economic issue of the
dam project was involved. The
bill must be passed unless further
construction of the Parker dam as
we'll as the Grand Coulee dam are
to be jeopardized, he said.
The measure was made necessary
by the supreme court decision
holding that the Parker dam had
not been authorized by congress.
Contracts were invalidated by the
decision and the Grand Coulee
project is considered subject to the
same attack.
Rep. Thomas Ford, Oem) Cali
fornia, denied the dam project was
an irrigation project as charged
by Republican members of the
rules committee.
1T is absolutely necessary to
have this dam for Los Angeles wa
ter supply" Ford said. 1T is cost
ing $4,000 to $4,000 a day to keep
idle machinery at the site pend
ing this authorization to validate
contracts"
why do you need this dam in
addition to Boulder dam," asked
Chairman John O'Connor.
I'm order to divert water and
get it to Los Angeles" said Ford.
The committee postponed action
until tomorrow, when it will first
hear opponents of the measure.

.HULSE ASKED
To ATTEMPT
LEGISLATION
Difficulty OF Introducing Bill
In Legislature At This Time
Told By Senator
REPEAL MIGHT BE GRANTED
Hewes Is Concerned Over The
Possibility OF Future Tangles
Unless Act Is Changed

Word is expected at irrigation
district headquarters this afternoon
from Senator HulSe relative to the
possibility of securing an amend
ment to the district property quail
ification act or the outright repeal
of this act by the state legislature
before its adjournment.
Evan T. Hewes, district president,
has been in communication with
HulSe on this proposition and held
long telephone conference with
him last night during which Hulse
said he would contact the rules
committee and see whether they
would consider the introduction of
that matter at this stage of the
session.
Hulse told the district official
that he felt certain no new bills
could be intc2duced now but felt
that the question of repeating the
former bill might be considered in
different light and allowed a
place in the deliberations of the
legislature during the next few
days He said he could not give any
positive information on this ques-
j ton until he had contacted all
members of this committee.
An effort had been made to Sc
cure adoption Of an amendment to
the present act without changing
its intent but this is now consider
ed practically impossible of accom-
plishment, HeweS stated today.
It is felt that unless this act is
either repealed or amended it will
cause endless discussion and prob
able law suits over future district
elections. The appellate court in
declaring this act unconstitutional
last week stated that the act was
uncertain and inconsistent and its
real meaning could not be aScer-
tanned
An application for a rehearing Of
this case has been filed with the
supreme court but a repeal of the
act or an amendment by the legiS-
lature would aid greatly in clearing
up possible election difficulties, it
was pointed out.
1t was announced at irrigation
district headquarters this morning
that until the supreme court has
given its decision in the matter OF
the appellate court ruling on the
district election of February 6,
salaries for officers voted on in
that election will be discontinued
This order will be effective as from
today.
This is taken to mean that Charles
Morrow, Brawley director, E. N. d.
Hatch, treasurer and Charles Brat
ton, assessor collector, who have
been receiving their salary from
March IL will not receive further
checks from the district until the
court ruling is given. Ira Aten,
Imperial director, although one Of
those voted on in the election, in all
probability will not be affected by
this announcement as his status
will be that of a hold-over officer
from his former term of office.
1t was further stated that this
ruling will apply to the deputies
appointed by Bratton and Hatch.
F.. H. McIver and Winnie Barry, in
cumbent officers and contestants
for the offices of treasurer and
assessor-collector, have been off the
district payroll since March IL, in
favor of Hatch and Bratton who
had been recognized by the ma
jority of the board as the rightful
officers.

it. When Mr.. Hoover was in why
the other side did the same

neither side has ever been origi-
