 It gives a Long-controlled state board control over 5000 city civil service employees. including clerks in the office of Mayor T. Semmes Walmsley and assistants of District Attorney Eugene Stanley. It also transfers to state control collec- tion and disbursement of New Or leans gasoline and liquor taxes, al- most the city's last remaining sources of revenue. The city gov ernment remains in name, but not in fact.
 The last bill was deleted from Longs 26-point program. Standing beside the senate secretary's, desk, the kingfish noisily announced, T don't want that bill passed" Ask ing for the acting floor leader at the senate's last reading of the bills Sunday night Long said, "Tell him to have bill No. 26 returned to the calendar when it comes up for advancement-just let it die on the calendar" The bill would have required contracting firms not domiciled in Louisiana to pay $1.- 900 license fees on all jobs over $50, ,000.
 Not One "No''.
 The senate and house convened
 11 IL IL to complete a session opened un- der Longs direction on Independ- ence day. The clerk read bil No. 1, the chair put the question, and the senate voted 35 yes. none no.
 Long, resplendent in a lavendar tie, brilliantly hued shirt and white linen suit. grinned broadly from a vantage point near the dais. He ambled away to visit the house of Representatives. which waited only to act on any amendment Long might find advisable at the last moment.
 h equally quick fashion the scn- ators voted on the remaining bills. There was no word of debate. Sem ators yawned visibly as the read ing clerk droned through his ron- tine and the gavel banged out the steps in delivering Louisiana bound and gagged to Long. Only one bill got as many as five negative votes; most were adopted unanimously.
 Critics of Long. mostly repre- sentatives of the New Orleans machine, asserted bitterly that by to-day's legislative action the ''Kingfish" virtually assured him. self of reelection next year to his senate seat. Even elementary students of Louisiana politics con- ceded that Long had succeeded at last In the battle he has waged with the "old regulars" since he became chairman of the public service commission at the age Of ss.

 The tcrrential rains extended into Canada where American tour ists were reported marooned since the first of the downpour Satur- day night. Workmen cleared debris and lowed in stalled auto mobile the vicinity of Sudbury Ont, as the vacationists sought new avenues back home. Hail and rain fell during a storm at the home of the Dionne quintuplets.
 Sheriffs organized forces in many areas to guard against pos sible epidemics and other suffering following the flood. Officers. who worked day and night rescuins families from their homes began preparing for families to return home in sanitary safety.
 Property and crop damage in New York state was tentatively es- timated at more than $10,000, ,000.

 At Ithaca more than 30 cot. tages were swept out on Lake Cayuga. The Black Diamond ex- press of the Lehigh Valley railroad was stalled one mile out of town.
 Were Swept Away
 Binghamton, N. Y., July S. (UP)-A farmer reported to the sheriff's office today that four per. sons in an automobile were swept from the highway into the river near Chenango Forks.
 Deputies were dispatched to the scene but were forced to return because highways were under water.
 Boston, July s-UP)-Heavy fog in Boston harbor brought shipping to a virtual standstill last night and early today, while north ern New England surveyed dam- age of thousands of dollars caused by torrential weekend rains.
 Coast guards lowed the 701foot scho0ner-yacht Veruna from Mi nots' Light to safe anchorage in Hull harbor early today. Captain Isaac L. Hammond of the Point Allerton station located the vessel after an all-night search. The Veruna's plight was reported by yachtsmen who had seen distress rockets.
 Louise St. Pierre. 12 year old Beverly Farms girl. was found early today asleep in a campers tent on Misery Island where she had taken refuge from the rain. She disappeared while. picnicking with her family yesterday.
 Six men in a 40-foot power boat owned by Antonio Baino of Nal; den were lowed to shore from Governors Island by the police boat Watchman.
 Washouts in Vermont and New Hampshire crippled railroad traffic and closed several important high- ways. A dam burst, draining a lake near Bennington, Vt, and parts of U. S. route and the Dart mouth college highway were So madly undermined that the roads were closed.

They Need Rest-R Relief

Many employees of the agencies in the work-relief program, waiting around for something to do, occupy themselves by making wise- cracks. One, based on the theory that it will be mostly a "leaf-raking," CWA pro- gram, is a conundrum:
 O.: why don't they get started?"
 A.: 'They're waiting for the leaves to fall!"

Faithful Through Torture

Deem especially faithful. True, Harrison let out of his finance committee the bill which had vir- tually killed MIRA before the U. S. bupreme court did the job-but only after Roosevelt himself had weakened on the issue.
 And Robinson could hardly stomach the holding company bill. which was such anathema to his close friends and associates in the power business-but he left a pair for the bill when he left town.
 No two leaders ever took a har.Ser lbow on the chin than when Roosevelt, after being told at . press conference that Harri- son and Robinson had said he wanted immediate action on his new tax program in connection with the nuisance tax extension which must pass in five days, de- clared the story was made up of swhole cloth." But, aside fro m their private expression, they kept quiet.
 In defending the administration, the two southern leaders have in- cured the hatred of Huey Long.
 Now badly worried by Huey's threats that he will go into Arr kansas and Mississippi next year to defeat them for reelection, they are vitally dependent on ad- ministration support in their cam paigns and could displease the president only at their political peril.
 Kick Over Traces
 O'Connor and Byrns haven't been quiet as cooperative as Harrison and Robinson. Both laid down on Roosevelt when the hold ing company bill came up-but 1t took the all-powerful Power trust" to bring them an issue on which they'd do that.
 O'Connor, whose first allegiance 1 1s to Tammany-whose delegation was all but solid against el!mina- ton of holding companies was asked twice by Roosevelt for a rule which would permit a record vote on the elimination provision. Twice O'Connor promised it.
 But, instead, he reported out rules which not only prevented that, but gave nearly all the de- bate time to the opponents - in- cluding republicans-of the senate biIi backed by Roosevelt.
 All this probably couldn't have happened had there been pressure from the easy-goins, easily in- fuenced Byrns.
 Revenge for Byrns
 The speaker was working off an old grudge harbored against an Administration which never did want him to be speaker and against Chairman Sam Rayburn of The house interstate commerce committee, who the administration had hoped could get the speaker ship.
 Rayburn's committee had knock ed out the presidents pet elimin- stion section. but Rayburn was leading the fight for 1t on the floor.
 They said they wanted Ray burn because he got m e things dope," Byrns had been quoted as saying, on the floor, But he won't put over anything in this session."
 So Byrns secretly encouraged pnraGing the elimination section which he later said were misquot- fd~-and let the word get around tho eloakrooms that it wasn't im- uoftant for members to vote for that section.

Built with discriminating care,
combining a well planned house
with plenty of ground, this
home is very attractive. I liked
the way the porch runs across
the front of the house and con-
tinueS around the side. It offers
a very convenient outlet for re-
taxing in the summer months.
A living room with brio: fire
place pens into a dining room
that has plenty of windows,
giving cheerful light. The pleas
ing manner in which kitchens
are built nowadays is especially
gratifying to the housewife who
spends 50 much time in the prac-
tice Of culinary art. This one
was Respondent in green with
that ever-useful feature, the OK
ford cabinet unit. having more
than the average amount OF
broom closets, storage space, etc.
The second floor has three bed
rooms all of them being outside
rooms and beautiful as well as
artistically decorated. You will
be amazed at the yard space. in
fact, there could be a good size
garden with plenty of ground
left over. At the rear Of the
yard there is a garage. This
house is between two car lines,
five minutes away from both
private and public schools, in
Guiding a Junior high, and is well
worth The price they are asking
for it.

AS is prevalent in the art Of

with the artistic, the result be-
ing most charming. On the top
of a hill overlooking the beauti-
full homes and gardens Of Wood

home. From the easement win
dows of the living room, which
is wainscoted in oak, with a
huge stone fireplace thanked on
both sides by oak seats, you
have a view that is unsurpassed
you see lovely trees, a rustic
bridge over a little running
stream. lilacS in bloom and so
many beautiful flowers and
bushes. The Dutch dining room

and mission oak woodwork.

was modern in every respect
and was very spacious. Two
bedrooms with large easement
windows and a bath complete
the first floor arrangement. The
housewife would be more than
satisfied with the convenient
closets placed here and there
to such a splendid advantage.
Upstairs there were two more
bright airy bedrooms; a COM
plete bath and two good size
packing rooms that would take
care of trunks rugs, etc. In this
short space, I cannot do justice
to the loneliness of this house,
for it is certainly home to be
proud Of. If you would like to
inspect this house, drive out to
Woodside Park, Silver Spring,

where you can get the key.
