james Thomson Dies;
Former Item Publisher

James McIlhany Thomson,
81. publisher Of the New Or
leans Item for SO years, died
yesterday at his home, Gaylord,
near Berryville, Va, to which
he retired In l94l.
During his years in New
Orleans, beginning with his
purchase Of the Item, the
South's oldest evening daily, in
1908, Mr.. Thomson was par
ticularly identified with the
fight for national flood control
legislation.
A member Of the Louisiana
Flood Control and Water Con-
servation Commission, he led
the successful 1923 fight for
congressional flood control leg
islation.
In recent years he was a
strong supporter Of States
rights.
During his stormy years as
publisher Of the Item, and
later the Aribune, Mr.. Thorn
son often was at odds with the
late Huey Long.
When Senator Long in 1881
proposed a one-year morator-
ium on cotto n planting
throughout the United States
to solve the problem of a cot
ton glut. Mr.. Thomson in
dorsed the proposal. Later
he supported the Kingfish's
choices for governor and mayor
of New Orleans.
But in 1884 Mr.. Thomson
split with Senator Long in
the mayorality campaign and
supported T. s. Walmsley,
member Of an anti-Long fac
ton.
Attacked Long
In later years. Mr.. Thorn
son remarked: Long was the
master Of legalizing the illegal.
He solved every problem re-
lating to the building Of a die
tatorship except press control"
Claiming that the Long
forces had MIXED the State
of 500 million, Mr.. Thomson
told the National Press Club
in 1910:
Il may shock some Of you by
saying that ! believe II anyone
with Huey Longs great ability,
prodigious industry and OUT
standing capacity for handling
people in mass had operated
In New York, Illinois or any
other State, it is probable that
he would have established q
dictatorship more easily than
Ilt was established in Louisiana,
for Louisiana is essentially one
of the most conservative States
in the Union"
Besides serving on the State
flood control commission. Mr..
Thomson was civilian aide
to the Secretary Of War and q
member Of the United States
Territorial Expansion Memorial
Commission.

lions as q delegate. enthusiasts
