u. 5. Picks Up Probe
OF Louisiana Tax
Reduction Racket
Federal Grand Jury Called
Back to Make Inquiry
Stote Abandoned
0y the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, La. Oct. 81
The Federal Government, which
caused the first showdown In Louisi-
ana's political scandals, had stepped
In again today, this time to take
over an investigation-apparently
abandoned by State authorities
into an alleged tax reduction racket.
The same Federal grand jury
which indicted former Gov. Richard
w, Leche and Hotelman Seymour
Weiss. political heirs of the late
Huey P. Long, was called back into
special session.
Its inquiry concerns charges in
court that certain LAWYERS and
others sought out businessmen and
agreed to have the latters tax as
sessments reduced if part of the
resulting savings were split with
them and certain State tax officials.
State Troops Took Over.
The New Orleans (State) grand
jury was proceeding with an investi-
cation of these charges when Gov.
Earl K. Long, with legal tech
nicality and backed by State mill
tary removed State Attorney Gen.
eral David Ellison and put his own
man in. Then District Attorney
Charles A. Byrne resigned, and a
court hearing on charges Byrne was
obstructing the jury was halted.
AT this juncture yesterday, Harold
Rosenwald, special assistant to the
United States Attorney General. an
nounced the Federal jury would re-
convene to hear witnesses and sew
eral reports on the alleged tax
racket. The jury had not been
scheduled to meet again until No
vember 7.
Six Seek Nomination.
Meanwhile, the gubernatorial cam
paign went forward with six cam
didates, including Gov. Long. seeking
nomination (tantamount to cleo
tom in the January 16 Democratic
primary.
Stealing last nights thunder was
S0-year-old James H. Morrison,

torchllght parade of floats carrying
persons in convict uniforms, labeled
as high State politicians
Mr.. Morrison, one of the few per-
sons publicly opposing the State ad-
ministration before the scandals
broke, was cheered by a great crowd.
Mr.. Morrison narrowly lost last
year in the sixth congressional dis
trict race. During that campaign
Mr.. Morrison was shot in the arm.
He said political enemies did it.
Some administration leaders de-
clared he shot himself.

LONDON, Sept. 6. (UP--
Military men here say Adolf
Hitler's stategy in the Europ-
can war is to drive his armies
in a series of call out
thrusts in the east, hoping to crush
the Polish army before French
British pressure on the western
front can become effective.
Thus far the success OF the
lightning war" seems problemati-
cal. From information available
from both sides on the eastern
front, military authorities consider
that the Poles have done extremely
we'll in blocking the tempo of the
German advance, in the light OF
their strategic disadvantage at the
beginning of the war. 1t started
with the Germans half encircling
Poland from the Baltic to Slovakia'
Present indications are that the
German generals staff's idea OF
smashing Polish resistance within
two or three weeks seems destined
to fail.
There has not been the slightest
indication of collapse of the Polish
army. On the contrary, they are
carefully withdrawing their main
forces within their naturally stra-
tegic defenses east of the Vistula
and Bug rivers.
Meanwhile, the British, by strew-
ing 100000 propaganda leaflets
over the German area where dis
affection might be expected, are
trying to sap German morale at
home.
So far, nearly 20 tons of leaflets
have been scattered, especially over
the vast Ruhr industrial region
where 100 square miles resembles
one great factory and mining town
Poland's military strategy in the
war is to weaken and confound
the enemy by progressive retreats
until the Polish troops reach their
fortified lines, observers said.
Polish sources in the French capt.
tai described the campaign of the
defenders as one based on "move-
ment and not position 1t was
set forth by those observers that
it would have been suicidal for the
home forces to engage the enemy
in pitched warfare in view of tht
superiority of man-power anc
equipment of the Germans.

Run Bank to Bank;


Flood waters dumped in
Imperial Valley in a 48-hour
storm Tapped the curbs in
city streets Wednesday and
covered the. whole desert
area in almost solid sheets of water
in many cases four to five feet deep.
More than four inches of water
fell to the earth and rushed madly
downward through washes and cul-
verts to New and Alamo rivers to-
ward an already swollen Salton Sea.
The last storm added to the trou-
bles of Mondays and Tuesdays del
uge.
Cost to Imperial county alone
was expected to be staggering as
storm waters poured from noun
tains trimming the desert and joined
the waters swamping this below sea
level valley with an unprecedented
layer of muddy flood. All city streets
and sewers We're damaged.
The New and Alamo rivers in
the northend were running bank
to bank, filled and brimming with
water seething into them from high
er parts of the valley. The flood
threatened II river bridges crossing
them in the northend, more than
half of the river bridges in the
county.
Loss to the Southern Pacific was
inestimable because of new wash
outs Wednesday between INLAND and
Yuma which stranded nine main
line trains at Ell Centre and INLAND
and held 924 passengers.
Highway traffic was stopped at
Dixieland Wednesday because three
feet of water poured across the
pavement there. The road was ex-
pected to be opened later in the
