Hopkins, relief administrators, with the statement: ‘‘With the President lies the demand that corrupt and political prostitution of the lowest order shall be re-inflict ed on my state —and I don’t mean maybe.” Long gave notice that the withhold ing of relief and PWA money from Louisiana might lead that state to re fuse to pay Federal taxes. , Long halted in the middle of his address when he saw Senator Josiah William Bailey, of North Carolina, talking to Majority Leader Robinson. "I hope I’m not disturbing the sen ator from North Carolina.” He said sarcastically, "I can hear him better than I can myself." Bailey bowed ironically and ceased his conversation but made no reply. Later Senator Pittman, Demcrat, Nevada, who was presiding over the Senate, threatened to clear the gal leries “as I did once before” if the noise did not cease. “The President has set up a Boston Tea Party of his own,” Long asserted. “He thinks he will draw out taxes from the state and withhold returns from them if refused to yield to his dictates.

The White House, said Mr. Roose velt, would announce this week detail plans for employing 3,500,000 from the vast work-relief agencies to help al locate the money. Heads of these departments were called to the executive mansion in the midst of the annual Easter egg rolling, which attracted thousands of children and grown-ups to the White House lawn. Capitol corridors and the Senate and House galleries were jammed with Easter visitors long before the noon convening hour. Many went to the Senate with the expectation of hearing Senator Long, of Louisiana, continue his attack on Secretary Ickes and Harry L. Hopkins, relief admin istrator. The 'bonus compromise proposed by Chairman Harrison, of the Senate Fi nance Committee, was ignored by the veterans’ spokesmen as the two day bonus hearing was opened this morn, ing.
