Long Is Rebuked by
New Orleans Chiefs

New Orleans, Dec. 20—(A)—Rebuked by the old regular city political caucus here, Senator Huey P. Long has been condemned for "traitorous conduct" and requested to resign by a mass meeting of fifth congressional district citizens.

The caucus Tuesday night refused by a vote of 12 to 5, to permit Long to compromise with them on picking a district attorney on the city ticket and the demand for his resignation, along with a request for five other state officials, including Senator J. H. Overton and Governor O. K. Allen to step out of office, was made at the mass meeting held at Monroe.

Long was rebuffed by the caucus for attempting to take a hand in the January city election. He replied with a threat of placing his own ticket in the field.
