Democrats Crack Do,vn on Long
As As1urst Leads First Assault
arizona Senator Reflects
Upon the Fishes Cast
Up by Storms.
Refers to the Classics in
Warning Huey of
AeschyIus' Fate.

The Democratic organization ma
chinery began cracking down" on
Senator Huey p. Long of Louisiana
Yesterday. Aroused by his recent To-
hour filibuster and his repeated at
tacks on the Roosevelt administration
and its legislative program, the organ
ization, headed by Senator Joseph T.
Robinson, Democratic leader of the
Senate, began open war on Long.
Senator Henry F. Ashurst, Democrat
of Arizona, chairman of the Judiciary
Committee, was put forward to make
the principal assault on the Louisiana
dictator" and champion of the share
the-wealth plan Senator Ashurst, in
a carefully prepared speech, featured
by classical illusions, held Long up to
ridicule and also gave him warning
that unless he changed his ways the
American Eagle would drop something
fatal on his head and he would suffer
the legendary fate of Aeschylus.
The Arizona Senator. who is rated
one Of the chambers ablest users OF
English, portrayed Long as one of the
host of creatures cast up after a storm
at sea, such as the "grunt, puffer.
toadfish. jellyfish and sawfish." He
depicted the Louisianan as one OF the
odd fish" forced to the surface from
the swamps of anonymity by the
economic storm.

D. c. PENSION BILLS
READY IN SENATE
To Be Debated After Social
Security Plan Passes
This Week.
BY J. A. O'LEARY.

With the Nationwide social Sc
curity bill due to pass the Senate this
week, the Senate District Committee
will take steps soon to whip into final
shape the several measures necessary
to put the national plan into effect
in Washington.
Local bills dealing with old-age pen
sions, unemployment insurance and
pensions for the blind have passed
the House, but Chairman King of the
Senate committee decided to await
enactment of the Federal law so that
the Districts social security legisla-
ton can be made to fit the standards
finally agreed upon for the country
as a whole.
Moving quickly, the Senate yester-
day afternoon approved nearly all the
Finance Committee changes in the
House draft Of the national bill, and
then agreed to limitation on a de-
bate which leaders hope will bring the
measure to a vote in the Senate by
Wednesday. 1t will then have TO 90
to conference with the House, however,
before its terms are final, and Sena-
tor King probably will not seek action
on the District program until the
Federal standards are definitely fixed.
For example, when the national
bill passed the House it required the
States to adopt the pooled system of
unemployment insurance, under which
the contributions Of all employers
are Jumped in Statewide fund, and
the local bill passed the House with
the same requirement.
Two Plans Offered.
One of the numerous amendments
to the national bill the Senate ap-
proved yesterday leaves the States free
to adopt either the pooled fund or the
separate company reserve system. I'm
der the latter plan separate book
keeping account would be kept with
each employer, from which his own
employees would be paid when they
are laid off. The Senate amendment
also recognizes the principle of en-
couraging employers to stabilize EN-
ployment by allowing credits, in the
form of reduced contributions. when
ever they show good record in keep
ing their workers steadily employed.
BY awaiting enactment of the Fed
eral law, the Senate District Commit
tee will have chance to consider in
the local laws these and any other
changes that may be agreed upon as
national standards.
Other Finance Committee amend
mentS to the national bill adopted by
the Senate yesterday were: A new sec
tion providing Federal grants to match
State pensions for the blind; inclusion
of the word needy" in the definition
Of persons entitled to the gratuity old
age pensions, toward which the Fed
eral Government would make a grant
of SIS to match a similar payment by
the State; making the Social Security

VALLEYS YIELDED

Federal Officials, Surprised
by Washington, Plan
Prosecution. =
BY REX COLLIER.

Because it has no funds with which
to prosecute the kidnapers of little
George weyerhaeuser, the State of
Washington yesterday waived its
rights in the case, leaving full re-
sponsibility for trial Of Harmon M.
Valley and his wife on the Federal
Government.
Obviously surprised at reluctance Of
State authorities to prosecute the first
kidnapers of major Importance to
violate the States widely publicized
'death-for- -kidnapers" law, officials of
the Department of Justice made haSty
preparations to administer Justice
under the less stringent 'Lindbergh
law" which provides for death only
in cases where the abducted victim is
injured or killed.
After lengthy telephonic conversa-
tions yesterday between Federal off,
cials here and the United States at
torney at Tacoma, it was decided to
present the Weyerhaeuser case to the
Federal grand jury in Tacoma next
Wednesday, when indictments win be
sought against the Valleys and Will
liam Mahan, the latter still a fugitive.
State Officials Busy.
In addition to pleading lack Of
money for State trial, State prose-
cution officials are said to have ex-
planned they were so busy with other

MIDWEST PARLEy
HEARTENS c. D. P
Session Seen as Starting
Drive, but Avoiding Too
Large Scope.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Republican leaders in Congress
have been greatly encouraged by the
enthusiasm shown at the Midwest
grass roots conference in Springfield,
Ill. They believe that the Republican
gathering did good job in the res
olutions they adopted. They are par
ticularly pleased that the conference
refrained from an attempt to write
q party platform and coutented it
self with statement Of principles. "
The Republicans realize that new
issues Of great Importance may de-
velope in the next IL months. The
Republican platform does not have
to be written until next June. There
is no reason why the Republicans
should show their hand or all their
cards until then. An example of the
sudden shift which may take place,
they say, is found in the situation
which developed almost on the eve
of the Springfield conference.
Had that conference taken place
two weeks before it did, the whole
tenor Of it might have been very
different" said one Republican SEN
atorial leader yesterday. The de-
cision of the Supreme Court holding
the N. r. A. unconstitutional, fol-
lowed by the Presidents statement
to the press in criticism Of the courts
decision, changed the whole outlook
of the conference. There may be other
developments equally important and
equally startling in the coming year
which will have important bearing
on the campaign which the Repub-
licans will make for control of the
National Government"
Will Press Issue.
The Republicans, however, have no
intention whatever of letting Presi-
dent Roosevelt escape from the
issue" which he himself proclaimed
at his press conference on the N. r. A.
decision. That issue was whether the
Federal Government should have
power to deal with economic and So
cial problems of national scope, such
as has been attempted under the New
Deal laws, one of which has now been
held unconstitutional The Republic
cans have interpreted the Presidents
statement as. meaning an attack upon
the Constitution as it now stands, and
as meaning that the CONSTITUTION
must be amended. They intend to
keep pumping the question. do you
plan constitutional amendment to
make the New Deal legal?" at the

SYMPHONY SAVED
AT LONG PARLEY
Director Kinder Believed to
Have ACCeded to Union
Demands.

Continuation Of the National SYM
phony Orchestra, existence of which
had been threatened as a result Of
dissension between the orchestra as
Sociation and the local musicians
union, apparently has been assured as
a result of a prolonged conference be-
tween parties to the dispute, concluded
last night. Hope was voiced. in addi-
ton, that most of the Summer con-
certs may be given. Up TO the time
of last nights conference serious ap-
prehension was felt that the orchestra
might disband.
DR.. william Mcclellan, one of the
conferees on behalf Of the orchestra
association, said after the meeting was
over:
We feel we can announce an
agreement which not only will make
it possible to continue the orchestra
but possibly to hold most of the con-
certs in the Summer series.
That Is about all We can say now
1t will be understood that these nego-
tistions are delicate. and it is not ad-
vissble to say too much until all de-
tails have been settled"
Demands Believed Met
Director Hans Kindler's yielding to
demands of the musicians union is
understood to have made the under
standing last night possible.
The chief point at issue had to dc
with the importation of out-of- town
musicians to fill key orchestra posi-
tionS vacated by musicians who have
gone elsewhere.
It was said to have been agreed
last night that DR.. Kinder would
waive all right to pass personally
upon the professional qualifications of
the musicians selected TO fill vacan-
cies and that such decision would
be left to judges to be appointed by
A. C. Hayden, president of the Musi-
clans Protective Union. who will con-
duct additions. An addition will be
given TO a musician previously dis
charged by Dr. Kinder, it is under
stood, and DR.. Kinder has agreed to
take him back if he is found salts
factory.
The union also held out for selec-
ton Of local musicians to fill vacan-
cies, but waived the point in the case
of first bassoon because of the un-
availability of a qualified player here.
The opening of the Summer con-
cert series, it was indicated by DR..
Mcclellan, will depend upon the
speed with which the additions are
pushed.
Association Represented.
Last nights conference was attend
ed by Corcoran Thorn. Walter Bruce
Howe, Leland Harrison and DR.. Nc
Clellan, on behalf of the Orchestra
Association. and Thomas Mulligan,
Herman Rackemann, Jacques Postlee
and Oscar Levin, representatives Of
the musicians. Director Kinder and
c. C. Cappel. orchestra manager, also
sat in during part of the conference.
John E. Birdsell. secretary of the
local Musicians Union, made public
letter last night from w. D. Howe,
secretary of the Administrative Com
mittee of the National Symphony Or
chestra, to A. C. Hayden. president of
the union. which showed that as late
as June DR.. Kinder was bitterly op-
posed to relinquishing the power of
determining the fitness Of the men
he must lead.

GAG RULE INVOKED
ON HOUSE TAX BILL
Excise Levy Measure to Be
Called Up Under Rules
Suspension.

The state of the Government S
finances for both the current and next
fiscal years makes any decrease in
revenue unwise, the House Ways and
Means Committee concluded yester-
day in a formal report advocating
immediate adoption of a resolution for
a two-yesr continuance Of $50l ,000, 900
existing excise taxes.
THE two-yesr extension is selected
because it is not yet apparent that
these additional revenues can be
spared before the expiration of such
period" the report said, rejecting all
suggestions that any of the nuisance
levies of the revenue act Of 1882 be
modified now or in the immediate
future.
To make doubly sure of the adop-
tion of the resolution without change
in any detail of the existing taxes,
the measure will be called up m the
House and passed tomorrow under
suspension of the rules. This parlia-
mentary procedure was decided upon
by House leaders in their latest show
of effort to push along the admins
tration's must" program.
Session to Go Into July.

two weeks ago in the confusion fol-
lowing the Supreme Courts triple de-
cision against the New Deal, has been
revived, but there is little level-headed
speculation disposed to predict the end

ment, it will not be the fault Of the
House, leaders contended when asked
what may happen to the resolution
when it reaches the Senate, where a
Progressive" bloc is threatening more
drastic levieS.
Immediately after the passage Of
the tax resolution tomorrow. the
House will begin work on the revised
amendments to the agricultural ad-
justment act. In the drive it is pos
sible the Wagner -Connery labor rela-
tions bill may be reached before the
week end. to be followed by the utili-
ties holding company measure. upon
which a report is expected from the
House Interstate Commerce Commit
tee some time next week.
