ject. Huey Ix)ng led and directed trie
fight in the senate which resulted in
the adoption of the amendment by a
majority of one vote.
That, for the moment at least, puts
Huey Long in top position in the po
litical eye. To be sure, he had power
ful weapons to play wHh in hia fig+rt
against the bill. The most powerful
was the organized Jahdr lobby, which

wages” on public works, instead of the

honest feelin|r of a good many Demo-

bill carries into the hands of.one man,

Discuss Compromise Measure
Senator Byrnes, of South Carolina,
who is supposed to be in the confi
dence of the. president, said after the
vote that the whole plan to substi
tute work relief for the dole is dead.
That does not necessarily follow. The
outlook is that the senate will recofF
sider its action, but at the same time,
as this is written, all sorts of compro
mise measures are being discussed.
The important fact ia that the presi
dent’s word ia no longer unquestioned
law on Capitol Hill, and that Huey
Long has proved himself a master of
political strategy, perhaps As skillful
a.s the president him.self^ who has
heretofote been regarded by experi
enced political observiers in Washing
ton as the most able j^litical manipu
lator seen here in a generation or
more.
The necessity of “doing something”
to curb Senator Long is becoming a
fixed idea in administration circles.
