TRAFFIC OVER
HIGHWAY . is
SHOWINGGAINSI
E. of E. Told Detours and
Alleged Personal Influ-
ence Cease as Factors

Light automobile traffic thru
Hendersonville over US. highway
No. 25 to and from Florida has
been a subject of comment here
for several months. In explana-
ton of this it is reported here to
the Chamber of Commerce that a
detour on this highway in Ken
lucky and another somewhere
west of Marshall have been used
by interested parties in other
states as a reason for diverting
traffic from this to other routes.
However, the Hendersonville
Chamber of Commerce has been
informed that these detours no
longer obstruct. traffic over No.
25 and that travel will now be
resumed between Florida and the
West via Hendersonville and
Asheville.
Automobile travel to and from
Florida has been noticeably light
for several months; and in view
of the fact it was known that a
large number Of tourists were
visiting Florida during the win,
ter, the people Of this city and
section have been wondering
what had happened to traffic on
No. 25, which has been one of
the most popular routes from the
central west to the south.
Investigation bv the Chamber
of Commerce developed the in
formation that the detours refer
red to had been the difficulty in
the way of travel in this direc-
ton. The detours actually in
terferred with traffic on 25; and,
in addition, it is alleged that per-
sons interested in diverting traf-
fic over other routes, used the
existence of these detours to the
best possible advantage.
1t is said that traffic on No.
25 is now increasing and It. is
expected that it will continue to
increase during the spring.

many.
None of these smaller nations is
in a position to be as bold as Hit
ler-but there is no doubt that
one way or another they soon
openly will start re-arming, with
or without the consent of other
treaty powers.
This action by three small but
key nations in southeastern Eu-
rope would greatly alter the Danu-
bian military charts and reduce
the overpowering superiority of
the combined armies of the Little
and Balkan ententes, both of
which are instruments Of French
policy in central and southeastern
Europe. :,
However, if these. three started
re-arming, it would take them
wears even to reach the present
armed level of the Little Entente
-Roumania, Czechoslovakia and
Jugoslavia. Their finances are too
limited, for one thing.
The Little Entente runs affairs
in the Balkans with a combined
armed strength of $4,000 active
soldiers to which must be added
more than 100000 reserves. To
match this, Austria, Hungary and
Bulgaria have total of only 49,
900 active soldiers under arms,
and no trained RESERVES.

New Orleans Police Force Deserts
Mayor, Goes Over To Long Outfit

NEW ORLEANS, La, Mar. %.
(UP).-The New Orleans police
force deserted Mayor 7. S. Walms-
ley's city administration yesterday
and sought refuge in the hostile
camp of Huey Longs state polltl-
cal machine.
It was a crisis for the "old reg
ular" party which rules the city,
the last stronghold of Louisiana
people who oppose dictatorship by
Huey Long.
Walmsley went to court saying
he would flight with every power
known to man. to get his police
back.
George Wallace, spokesman for
the dictatorship when Long is abb
cont in congress, replied with
b;nt that secret police, similar to
Russia's Ogpu, may be scattered
all over the state.
Gamblers took advantage OF the
Confusion and smashed the rusty
from their doors. 1t was
ip'nJerstood that Longs forces had
I;fted the lid on gambling this
+;ne Long started the vice wars
hare last year. He accused Walms-
iay,s city ring of letting the town

Walmsley became the vice cru,
sader yesterday. He ordered pc
lice to clean up the city. The gam
blers believed the police would ig-
more the order and they failed to
close again because Police George
Reyer had opposed Walmsley in
court yesterday in clash of au-
thority.
The police carried out the or
der, however, and began raiding.
More than 80 men had been ar
rested early last night on charges
of operating lotteries and racing
handbooks.
Long has been attempting to
put state controlled boards in
charge of New Orleans police and
fire departments. He had the leg
islature pass law creating these
boards and removing the city
council from authority. Walmsley
obtained a temporary injunction
against the law and yesterday he
went before District Judge Cage
to argue for a permanent injunc-
ton.
Wallace represented Longs side.

MEMPHIS. Tenn, March rs
(UP).-A masked might riding"
organization similar to the Ku
Klux Khan is forming in eastern
Arkansas to terrorize Socialist
sharecropper organizers, it was in
Dictated last night.
The latest act of terrorism was
reported yesterday by C. T. Car
penter, Marked Tree, Ark, attor-
ney for the Southern Tenant
Farmers Union. He told the Unit
ed Press by long distance eight or
ten carloads of armed men fired
two shots into his home after he
refused to "come out"
Persons in the neighbOrhoOd
aroused by the firing said they
believed the riders were wear
ing green masks, although it was
so dark they could not tell for
sure.
Carpenter said the "four or
five" men who were on his front
porch when he opened the door
were not masked. He was not
sure about the others.
A deputy sheriff guarded Car
penter'S home last night. Carpen-
ter said he believed he could iden-
t;fy one of the five men who stood
on his porch, "but the other four
were total strangers to me-" He
added, "I'm satisfied last nights
affair was an outgrowth of some
sort of organization like the old
Ku Klux Klan."
Is the new organization-if such
has formed-a reincarnated Ku
Klux Khan, which has discarded its
traditional white robes and masks
for green masks?
The group that fired on Carpen-
ter's home left hurriedly, he said.

the door. When l did. they fired

on before opening the door,
Carpenter said Sheriff j. D. Du.,
bard, of Poinsett county, arrived
a few minutes later and remained
with him the rest of the night. he
said he had not demanded an in
vestigation as he felt the sherlH
voluntarily would seek to identity
members of the group.
