HueyLong Shot in

100000 Attend
Long Funeral in
Baton Rouge, La.

Baton Rouge. La. Sept. IL. -
A Square-jawed parson stood on
the brink of a green grave today
and told more than 100000 persons
that Huey P. Long is dead but his
political philosophy goes marching
on.
Out across the hot, perspiring
acres of white-suited men and wo-
men, the Rev. Gerald L. K. Smith,
Longs first lieutenant in the share
the wealth movement, sounded the
call for unceasing battle to try. to
make every man a king.
Then ropes whined under the
weight of the great bronze and
mahogany coffin and Longs body
slipped slowly into it's garden
grave near the soaring tower of
Louisiana's state capitol,
"This place marks not the rest
ing place of Huey Pierce Long,"
cried Smith, his vibrant voice
powerless to carry to the edge of
the crowd. "This marks only the
burial ground for his body. His
spirit shall never rest as long az
lean human frames stand naked;
as long as homeless wretches
haunt this land of plenty.

GOOD SUPPLY OF FOOD
CROPS HELD ASSURED

Washington, Sept. II. - Dis
cussing the Sept. 1 crop report, de-
partment of agriculture officials
today said an sample supply of
most food crops now seems assur-
ed" with certain classes of wheat
the only exception.
The agriculture department yes
terday estimated the 1885 wheat
production at 594,615,00O bushels
the third smallest since 1904-and
the corn crop s2,183,755 bushels.
The wheat estimate on Aug. 1 was
607, 678,000 bushels and the corn
estimate 272, 147,O00 bushels.
|, Continued rust damage to wheat
and hot, dry weather in the south
western part of the corn belt were
blamed for the reductions.
1T is increasingly evident, the
department said, that the domestic
supply of hard red spring wheat of
milling quality will be below re-
quirements. 4yy 81
Crop yields4as a whole are now
expected to be just about equal to
the average yields during the 1921
1880 period. Pastures were said tc
be in the best condition of the last
six years with further improve
ment indicated. .. ~
