IL. S.-GEORG|A ROAD.
| FIGHT CONTINUES.
Dispute Unabated by Farley
of Gov. TaImadge and
Roosevelt.

BY the Associated Press.
The Federal Government and the
State Of Georgia still were ut odds
today, despite o White House meet
ing between President Roosevelt and
Gov. Talmadge, one OF the admin
istrations severest critics.
Clark Howell, Atlanta editor. who
was with the presidential week end
party on Chesapeake Bay, brought
the President and Talmadge together
yesterday for q conference on 0eor-
gas highway question.
Politics Not Discussed.
Howell said the meeting was cor
dial. and that political subjects were
not under discussion.
The question Of Georgia's $4,000
900 share In Federal road funds re-
manned unsettled. After the White
House visit Talmadge conferred with
Thomas H. Macdonald, chief Of the
Bureau Of Roads, who wants Geor-
gas Highway Department reorgan-
tied TO eliminate what he described
as inefiiciency.'
Nothing tangible came Of this
meeting and Talmadge said: IT told
Macdonald that If you have . right
to initiate road projects In Georgia
there Is not one vestige OF States
rights left
Shortly after Talmadge was at the
White House President Roosevelt put
Senator Long Of Louisiana, another
of his severest critics, on notice that
he will have no influence over Fed
eral relief expenditures.
Hits Louisiana Laws.
Although he did not call Long by
name, Mr. Roosevelt said at his press
conference that laws recently passed
by the Louisiana Legislature would
make 1t very dificult to carry public
works projects there. He added that,
of course, the Federal Government
intended TO control spending Of its
own money, but denied that the leg
islation would interfere with projects
of Harry L. Hopkins Works Progress
Administration.
In New Orleans, Long was quick to
retort:
I'VE amt worrying about him down
here. States where Roosevelt is sup
posed to be helping out are 20 much
worse OF than Louisiana that we
don't want him messing around down
here anyway"

CHICAGO, July 18.-Louie 1.-TWO
Gum Alterie, "big-time" Chicago
gangster, who survived some of
the city's bloodiest bootlegging wars,
was shot down as he left his hotel to-
day and died an hour later.
A blast of shotgun fire dropped Al
terie so seriously wounded that he
barely survived the ambulance ride to
Lakeview Hospital. Nine shots struck
him, and he died while unconscious.
His assassins missed his woman COM
panion, identified by police as his
wife, Irma, IS. She was taken into
custody.
Capt. Daniel Gilbert, chief OF the
States attorneys police. blamed the
killing on labor trouble" Once the
partner of Dion OBanion, pioneer
Chicago bootlegger, Alterie had lately
been an oficial Of janitors' union,
Gilbert said.

Alterie was known as a lieutenant
Of Dion O'Banion at the time the first
RASt04 CS4dC LII LA1C City gang
hierarchy was shot to death In his
flower shop across the street from the
Catholic Cathedral.
The O'Banion- Alterie mob had
gained control Of the North Side beer
and booze distribution by virtue OF
their quickness with pistols. Although
the South Side Al Capone mob was
blamed for O'Banion's killing, Alterie
was later known as Capone under
ling.
He went TO Colorado "for his
health" after q realignment In gang
dom, and there received what he never
had been given in Chicago prison
sentence.
When the Federal Government
went after Capone for income tax
evasion In 1881, and eventually con-
victed him, Alterie was brought bach

WE'RE STILL YOUNG

Eighty-five years ago today, the
American Union was enhanced by the
admission of the State of California.
Even then California was IN the spot
light bv virtue of the gold rush then at
its height, and it has managed to stay
there more or less continuously ever
since.
It is doubtful if there is a state IN the
Union more pubhcized today than Cali
fornia. Throughout the sweep of the
middle west. and back to the Atlantic
coast. the name California acts like
magic The state is the Mecca for thou
sands each year, many Of whom come
as visitors and remain to stay as resi-
dents.
There are countless others, however,
who come, not to contribute to Callfor-
mia, but to see what they can get out OF
it. To them California is Promised
Land" where they do no work and
there is no need for working While
the state has advantages too numerous
to mention, there is no place where the
drone is less welcome. California well
comes those who come to help build it
up to its fullest potentiality, but she
frowns on those who, like barnacles on
a ship, simply wish to fasten themselves
on the state.
Throughout the state today there is
celebration at reaching another mile
stone. We have reached "four-score
and five" and are still young. The re-
of California have only been
scratched; the real development is yet
to come. California needs not only the
natural increase of its population but
an influx of sturdy men and women
from other places to bring it to the full
ness of its possibilities.
The state can do no greater justice to
itself and its citizens than by taking
every legal step to keep out the drone
and welcome the worker. 1t might we'll
dedicate its .eighty-fifth birthday to the
Inauguration of a campaign having this
for its objective.
While doing this, the day should also
be an inspiration to every Californian,
to work for the welfare of his state, to
guard it from the enemies within who
would scuttle it if they could, and to
keep it as it always has been, in the
front rank of the United States of
America

WO WOMEN
FOUND SLAIN
IN ARIZONA


PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. 9. U.H -
A 70-year-old woman and her 40
year-old daughter We're found dead,
presumably murdered, in their
lonely desert cabin near Buckeye,
Ariz., yesterday, the sheriff's office
here was notified.
The women, both negresses, ap-
parently had been dead six weeks,
the report from Buckeye officers
said.
The bodies were discovered by
Constable Al Maxim of Buckeye
when he forced his way into the
cabin to investigate reports that
the women had not been seen
around the cabin for some time.
Propped up in bed in a sitting po-
sitiCn was the body of Mrs. Julia
Atkinson, 10, while in a chair be-
side her was the headless body of
her daughter, Mrs Rolla Thom-
son, 40. The skull lay on the floor
beside her.
The house was in perfect order
Maxim reported, with no signs of
struggle. In cupboard in the
kitchen, he said, was plenty of food,
eliminating the possibility they had
died of starvation.
Authorities sought Rage A. At
kinson, husband of the elder wom-
an for questioning. He last was
seen in the vicinity of the cabin,
August g, deputies were informed.
Due to the advanced decompo-
sition of the bodies, the cause of
death could not be determined i'm
mediately.

THE SOWER REAPS

Assassination, or attempted assassl-
nation, always has been and always
must be repulsive to the American
people, who have been educated to fight
their political battles by ballot and not
by the bullet or the knife
1t is because Of this that the attempt
to kill Senator Huey P. Long Of Louisi-
ana can only be condemned as an un-
American way of settling political dis
pute.
The attack, while regrettable, as a
similar attack would be on any person,
and particularly those of prominence,
has been expected, and the wonder is
that Senator Longs life was not at
tempted long before this.
No man can usurp power, set himself
up as a supreme dictator of a state, and
not expose himself to attacks upon his
life. The days when one man could be
supreme lord and master Of other men,
has long since passed. To deny that this
is so is to give approval to slavery, and
the American people abolished that af-
ter four years of bloody civil war.
Senator Long, because of the pecu-
liar construction of the Louisiana con-
stitution, has been able to make Louisi-
ana little more than a vassal state, sub
ject to his every whim, be it political or
otherwise. 1t must be granted that Sen
ator Long has accomplished much good
for his state. It's excellent system of
roads alone is something for which he
may justly claim credit. This and other
improvements, however, colud have been
accomplished without multiplying the
right of franchise to the citizens of the
state. Senator Longs objectiyes may
be right, but his means Of obtaining
them are entirely wrong.
The man who attempted the life of
the senator paid for it with his own.
Meanwhile Senator Long fights for his.
One cannot help but express sympathy
for any person suffering physical in
jury, such as the senator now under
goes. The best those who oppose him
and his doctrines can say is to express
the hope that the attack on his life if
he survives it, may show him the error
of the course he pursues and prompt
him to adopt less dictatorial methods.
AS one can only judge mans future
by his past acts, it is very much doubted
that Senator Long will learn such
lesson from his present experience
