“This is a helluva come-off,” J.
C. Jester, sr,, exploded when he en
tered his bedroom to retire last
night and a burglar stuck a gun
and flashlight in his face.
“This is a helluva come-off,” Mr.
Jester repeated. ‘“What in hell do
’you mean doing this?”
At first, Mr. Jester said today,
’he thought someone was playing a
joke on him and was angry at such
ia prank. !
! But, when the burglar thrust the
|gun a little closer to his face, and
| sBld:: ‘‘See this?—see this gun?”
ihe knew that it was no prankster
‘he was fooling with, so he turned
an involuntary expression into stra
itégy.
I “Yes,” replied Mr. Jester, “I see
;the gun. But what are you doing
;sti«king a gun in my face. You
' ought to be ashamed. You know
!I haven’'t but thirty-five cents. 1
told you so tonight when you asked
'me for a dollar. Why couldn’t you
be satisfied with the thirty-five
cents I offered you, instead of stick
-ling a gun in my face.”
. This sore of talk didn’t make
Isense to the burglar, and at the
lend of ten minutes he was more
'than willing to call It a day, or a

' permanent structures would reach
- a peak of employment before next
?JLIHO. Therefore, the gap must "be
be filled in by temporary work un
der jurisdiction of HopKkins, he
explained.
Because of this, Mr. Rooseveli
said, the bulk eof the remaining
$1,250,000,000 from the four billion
fund to be spent in the next four
months would go to temporary
jobs.
This must be done, he asserte«l.‘
if the objectvie of taking 3,500,000
from relief rolls lis achieved by
the November goal. '
At the same time, he said, con
sideration would be given to the‘
permanent public works projects.
He announced that Secretary
Ickes had been asked to submit a
list of projects of this nature and
he laid down four rules for their
approval. '
These are that contracts must
be let on or before December 15;
the projects must be completed in
a year; they must be in an area
where there are sufficient relie.’l
persons to provide the employ—}
ment; and they must abide by
the requirement of average pay of |
SBSO per man for the job. |
Thus declaring for speed "and
for immediate temporary Wwork.
Mr. Roosevelt said he expecled
before departing on his trip to
the Pacific coast that he would
approve direct grants to states
and municipalities totalling $200,-
000,000, I
This is to be matched on “JI
;baéis of 55 percent by the com
munities, making a total of about
“$425,000,000 for local projects.
In addition, he said the Public
Works administration is under
orders to ascertain immediately
. what projects already authorized
| which are not being pushed. These
lare to be cancelled and the funds
to be used elsewhere, This is ex
pected to provide an additional
$220,000,000.
All' in all it looked like the
President in his work speed or
ders gave the edge to Harry L.
| Hopkins with a chance to Secre
! tary Ickes to get his program in
line by the December 15 dead
line,
Upon his return from the west
ern trip, Mr. Roosevelt said he
would re-check the whole pro

Bulldogs Will Scrimmage Saturday;
Three Athenians Rate‘‘First”’ Team
Players Far Below Par on
Blocking During Punt
Formation Skirmish
BY GUY TILLER, JR.
Saturday afternoon is slated to
bring the first hard scrimmage
for the Georgia Bulldogs. The
work will continue to grow more
strenuous as only two weeks se-
parate the Bullddgs‘ opening game
with (Mercer here,
This afternoon only a light drill
is to be staged. Coach Mehre gent
the players through the wusual
morning workout today, stressing
pass offense and defense. The work
this afternoon will probably include
work on the charging sled, tackl
ing dummy and blocking at living
targets. However, the workout is
not to by of as tough a nature as
Thursday’'s drill.
Scrimmaging from punt forma
tion featured the grilling two hour
skirmish Thursday. The boys seem
ed to relish their first “scramble”
and although their nlocking form
was far below season par, Coach
Mehre seemed satisfied in that the
skirmish was the first of its nature
for the practice perod.
Block Ends
The tackleg and centers moved a
step ahead of the rest of the field
yvesterday when theygtook their jni
tial turns on the tackling dummy.
The backs and guards were drill
ing on blocking ends at the same
time and thereby escaped the dum
my work. -
Aided by a Stiff wind at their
backs, John Bond and Maurice
Green sent punts soaring for sixty
vards in several occasions yester
day during punting practice. Alf
Anderson and Bill Hartman, al
though not getting the distance
Green and Bond achieved, Kicked
consistently for good yardage.
A tentative first team yesterday,
although it has little bearing on
who will be holding regular berths
the opening game, included Leroy
Moorehead, Athens guard, “Brick”
Stone, Athens center candidate, and
Hugh O’Farrell, local end aspir
ant. O'Farrell and Wagnon, ends;
Shi and Harman, tackles; Moore
head and Johnson, guards; Stone,
center; Treadaway, quarterback;
Bond and Minot, halfbacks; and
Green, fullback, comprised ' the
“pick” eleven.

tion.”
He added that there would be no|
“temporizing” with the “assassins.”
Meanwhile the divergent interests
‘and ambitions of Long’s followers
created an impression of confuslon'
over who might take up his lead
ership and indicated possibility|
that there might be a gradual dis-|
intregation of the political empire
he created.
There was sgilence today at the
' $5,000,000 skyscraper capitol Long
built even as there was a move to
resume normal activities. It was
where he was wounded fatally by’
‘an assassin during one of his spec-|
lial sessions to strengthen his ‘“dic
tatorship” Sunday and it became
' his monument yesterday. i

100,000 to 200,000 looked on, T.ong
Iwas buried in front of the capitol
yesterday afternoon. SN
I While speculation over Loui&-}

IDF, Thomas B. Bird, East Baton
ißouge coroner, laid plans to go
forward Monday with the oft-de~
'layed inquest into the‘leath of Dr.
Car! A. Weiss, jr., Long's assassin.
The coroner returned a simple’
verdict in Long's death. It read:
“Gunshot wound (homicidal.)” |
Long's funeral was a memorable
event,

filed past the bier te see the fallen
leader,
Big Rush ]
There was an indescribable msh,
yvesterday. With tens of thousands
massed on the state house grounds
bringing lunch to spend the day,
sleeping under oak trees and mill
ing about, double lines were form
ed so that.persons could pass on
both sides of the coffin simultane
ously. ¢
Ry actual count, they moved by
at the rate of about 100 per min
ute. Officers kept them almost
running with shouts of “hurry up,”
“get along,” and “step lively,” but
despite that thousands were disap
pointed when the doors were clos
ed promptly at 4 p. m.
A score or more in the huge
crowd were overcome and many
were brought into the state house
where they were revived.
Just as the body was brought
to the grave hundreds broke
through police lines and rushed
forward. There was considerable
confusion before officers, aided by
100 men hastily deputized in the
crowd, could push them back.
» Much Speculation
Along with the uncertainty over
the future of TLouisiana’s politics,
there was similar speculation to
day over what might become of the
senator's “Share-Our-Wealth” clubs
over the United States. Talk that
they might fall behind Governor
Eugene Talmadge of Georgia to
support him as a “Share-Our-
Wealth” candidate for president in
1936 was scouted hy the Rev. Ger
old L. K. Smith, Long's national
club organizer.
The funeral services was con
ducted under an awning by the
Rev. Smith,
“The lives of great men do not
end with the grave,” he said. “His
spirit shall never rest as long as

After a short prayer, the body
wag lowered into the grave at 4:52
p. m., CS.T. The copper lid of
the sepulchre was cemented, a
small derrick lifted a marble slab
into place, and Long was at rest.

Blames U. S. Senate
In New Orleans, Mrs. Hilda
Phelps Hammond, chairman of the
woman’s committee of Louisiana,
who for several years has sought
to have Senator John H. Overton
removed from office on a charge
he was elected by fraud inspired
by the Long machine, issued a
statement charging the United
States senate with “a share of the
responsibility for the tragedy that
has been enacted in Louisiana.”
She said that Louisiana citizens
had informed the senate that “the
ballot box in Louisiana has been
destroyed” and added that if the
senate had performed its duty it
would have ‘“gone far towards
breaking ruthlesg dictatorship and
relieving eonditions which have
culminated in tragedy.”
Saying “Longism still lives” in
Louisiana, she declared the wom

. Rogers was still wearing the farm
¢lothes he-had on Wednesday night
when, after hours of drinking and
quarrelling, he wers found, sup
ported by two men, on the lawn of
the farm house in an upstairs beds
voom of which the girl lay dead.
His necktie and helt were takem
from him last night following exs
pressions of fear that he might ate
tempt to take his own life.
“Let me have a gun, so I can kill
myself, too,” he was quoted by
Farmer Claude Battin as having
said. Battin was present in the
farm house when the shooting
curred. It was Battin's oryy
strongly bolstering Rogers’ nd
Kelly’s accounts, that strengthens
ed official belief today that the
girl had killed herself.
The girl’s parents, however,
many of her friends refuse to acs
cept the suicide theory, despite the
circumstances of the gun at her
feet and the evidnce that she was
alone in the room at the time. The
Hoevs have engaged Morris Ernst,
prominent New York criminal laws
ver and well known liberal, to reps
resent them.
A battery of counsel, headed -
James W. Gerald, former amb ;
sador to Germany, has been activé
in the interests of Rogers. e
Rogers and Kelly stepped quickly
into a waiting car as soon ag they
were formally released, and T
driven rapigly away. ' Their desti
nation was not made known. =
There were reports, lacking con
firmation, that Rogers’ young Wil
the former Virginia Lincoln ¢
Cleveland, O. to whom he wa
married in 1929, had arrived here
Other sources, however, said sh
was in seclusion in Cleveland. ,
