Both asked me |if I would attend the Diamond Jubâ€" ‘ilee of Louisiana State University, but I could not at that time give \any definite promise. However, recâ€" | ently the invitation was again extenâ€" ‘ded by wire, and luckily a lull in legislation mage it possible for me to take five days and a weekend off | Which, with the fast trains, was sufâ€" ficient to allow me three days in ‘ Baton Rouge. We have been hearing that Huey runs the State University. Furthner, President _ James Munroe Smith had gathered for the occasion of the Jubilee, representatives of almost every seat of learning in the United States and had arranged for the carâ€" rying out of a program which was an education in itself. Leaders of the State gathered in conrerences from day to day. It was thrilling to come suddenly into summer. When night feil the train was speeding somewnere peâ€" tween Chicago and Baton Rouge and ithere was only & suggestion or green over the fields. But in tne morning when I awoke there were strawberry pickers at work, and rosâ€" es wreathed the doorways of humble homes. Leaving the train at Hamâ€" mond, the centre of the strawberry Professors from _ northern states motored fifty miles through beauti ful country to Baton Rouge. much talked of Huey Long. In the @cademic parade I was given the gown of doctor of philosophy to wear, and I heard many speeches,â€" excellent, fair and poor, and made Meets Muey Long have I have been TORONTO runs the State, and thar Down in Louisiana and lighted avenue to the Greek theatre, AiIM which is a reproduction of the open t in‘ air theatres of ancient times, its has vast stage m green sward, the backâ€" m‘,drw centuryâ€"old trees close planted his and carrying the eye upward to the m]mm-ky. The pit of the theatre I have 1 was an undergraduate and I confiâ€" dently turned to him in my distress, and am taking postâ€"graduate work." The most beautiful pageant of all was the gowned parade of Faculty and visitors passing from the adâ€" es count. I came here hitchâ€"hiking and have remained. Dr. Smith had taught me at South Western when because my family had four votes whereas the family of a less qualiâ€" fied teacher, had eleven votes. Votâ€" To give you a rounded picture, however, I must tell you of a not.e[ which was written and pushed aâ€". cross the table to me by a Univerâ€" sity graduate,...written on the back of one of the beautifully gotten up programs,...."I was one of the felâ€"| lows bassador. od!" He went on to say that my‘ people deplored the part that the politician had played in lmpmvlnxl‘ ecucation in the State. It had even been said that politicians _ were thieves. But if that were so it was well that they should steal for the ‘little chillun‘,......"and Ah‘m that kind of a thief!" In referring to the Jubilee oole-' bration commemorating the 75th anâ€" niversary of the founding of the inâ€" stitution Senator Long said: "I know little about the first 70 years but I‘H | back MY FIVE against them". | Referring to the cadet display which we had just witnessed t he Senator said: ‘"We train people to die, and I am informed it takes only half as much to train people to live, ....and I‘m all for the latter methâ€" He pointed out that they economâ€" ized in ithe Governor‘s offices â€" and mansion the while they supplied free text books in the schools. "Ah‘ll say Ah‘s interfered!" The loud speaker and broadcastâ€" apparatus had been fixed for the comfortable use of speakers of averâ€" age height. This left Huey towering head and shoulders above the microâ€" phone. He had not been speaking 5 minutes when I knew that, with all his faults, Huey Long is an elementâ€" al force which cannot be ignored. An unscrupulous dictator and demaâ€" gogue he may be; rude and uncouth he certainly can be. But he has a devasting charm of manner when he cares to exercise it, and can by the very simplicity of his address reach ience. Speaking with a pronounced drawl and using the Southern vernacular, he proceeded to say that, before welcoming the very distinguished visitor whose country hac given so much of art and literature to the world, he wanted to deai with a loâ€" cal matter.
