Head Of Young Democrats
Pledges Roosevelt Support
By the Associated Press.


PITTSBURGH, Aug. 8-Between
blasts at the Hatch law, President
Pitt Tyson Maner of the Young
Democratic Clubs of America de-
clared President Roosevelt would re-
ceive the unqualified support of the
Young Democratic organization if
he is nominated for third term.
IF the President is put up for a
third trip to the White House, the
Young Democrats will go to town
for him" he asserted upon his ar
rival from his home in Montgomery.
Ala, for the national convention of
Young Democrats opening Thurs
day.
However" Mr.. Maner added, this
must not be interpreted as organiza-
tional Endorsement of him because
our constitution forbids us to in
dorse any one until after his nomi-
nation at the senior convention. The
Young Democrats will give their
support to any candidate who comes
out of the nominating convention. Z"
The Alabaman termed the Hatch
Political Practices Act "the most m-
American piece of legislation that
has been passed in the last 25 years,
and when I say un-American, l
mean that 1t Is just not according to
the principles on which this Gov
eminent is founded. I am yet to
f1nd one Young Democrat that's
for it."

President Mistaken
In Saying Bill for 5
New Judges Passed
Senute Measure Was
PieeonhoIed in House
In Legislative Conflict

President Roosevelt was mistaken
in his statement last night that a
bill authorizing appointment Of five
additional Federal judges awaited
his signature. Today 1T became
clear Congress had not passed such
a bill
A conflict between the Senate
and House prevented passage of
proposed legislation increasing the
number of judges, which was ad-
vanced by Is in the congressional
session of 1898.
In the recent session, the Senate
approved Senate bill No. 2185 pro-
viding for two additional circuit
judges and six additional district
judges. The House Judiciary Com
mittee reported out its own judges
bill, H. R. 7079, providing for two
additional circuit judges and five
temporary additional district judges
The Senate bill was pigeon -holed
on the desk of the Speaker of the
House. The House Judiciary Com
mittee sought a rule for considera-
ton of its bill, but failed to get
one. So the session ended with
the Senate bill still on the Speak
er's desk and the House bill still
far from the floor.
Despite this contretemps, the
President, in remarking on the
court changes that have taken place
since February 5, 1887, when he
proposed the Supreme Court bill
to Congress, said
Since then Is additional judges
have been provided for by Con-
gress, and a bill authorizing five
more awaits my signature.

Big vio|ators'
DeIves Deeper Into
Alleged Tomperine
With Shushon Jury
BY the Associated Press.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 8.-The
Government pushed an intense hunt
for big violators" today with more
indictments expected shortly as o.
John Rogge, Assistant United States
Attorney General, announced the
Federal search for political corrup-
ton in Louisiana was just picking
up speed.
Less than "a hours after former
Gov Richard w. Leche and Seymour
Weiss. two of the late Huey P.
Longs most favored political heirs,
were charged with hot OIL opera
tions, Mr.. Rogge said:
We're concentrating on the big
violators now, taking the smaller
ones in stride. The Federal inves-
legations in this State are just un-
der way. Beginning today the grand
jury will work overtime, sitting in
all-day sessions and perhaps even
on Saturdays"
S134.OOO Profit Charged.
Mr.. Leche and Mr.. Weiss were in
dicted yesterday on charges they
each profited by $4,000 through
transactions in violation of the Con-
nally Act, which is designed to aid
States in maintaining oil conserva-
ton quotas by prohibiting interstate
movement of illegally produced
hot" oil.
Freeman Burford, wealthy Dallas,
Tex, oil man, and the East Texas
Refining Co. also were indicted in
this deal
Mr.. Rogge said the Government
was particularly probing reports of
tampering with the jury which &C
quilted Abraham L. Shushan. an
other Long field general, of income
tax evasion charges in 1885.
Mr.. Shushan was charged by the
Government four years ago with
failure to report income totaling
$448,218.91 from 1929 through 1898.
Immediately after his acquittal,
Mr.. Shushan resigned the presi-
dency of the Levee Board which dur
ing his tenure had built the city's
$4,00O,000 airport.
Declined to Explain Fee.
Mr.. Long honored Mr.. Shushan,
amid many protests, by naming the
airport after him. The Levee Board
yesterday voted to change the name
to the New Orleans Airport" after
Mr.. Shushan ignored a request to
explain his connection with a $685.
600 fee in refunding transactions
here two years ago.
Meanwhile, Shirley G. Wimberly,
who formerly practiced law in the
same suite with Gov. Earl K. Long,
said in radio address that Attorney
General Frank Murphy was making
a tremendous mistake" if he thinks
'he can step over the ruins of a
crushed Louisiana into the Presi-
dents chair"
His statement was made in con-
nection with request to Mr. Rogge
to quit playing politics"
Mr.. Wimberly remined his list
eners that Gov. Long had disap-
proved remarks made about At
torney General Murphy and Mr..
Roggs by Mr.. Wimberly in pre-
vious address.
