The Senate, in cession Monday night, voted, 20-7, in support of a i c.slution authorizing the investiga- tion which was introduced-by Senator L, Hale Brake, Republican of Stan- ton. The ground work for the inquiry was swiftly laid. Lieut Gov. ThomasI named the members of the commit- tee : Chairman, Andrew L. Moore, Pontiac; Ed. W. Fehling, St. John's; Brake; Gerald D. Cotter, Mt. Pleas- ant; Gordon F. Van Eeneenaam, Mus- kegon, and Joseph F. Baldwin, Al- bion, all Republicans, and threej Democrats: John C. Wickstrom, Nor-I way; Leon D.

Attofney,. General Harry S. Toy, who in a report to the legislature earlier in the everiing, asserted that a "gigantic fraud" had been perpe- trated on the voters of Michigan in the recount of votes in Wayne coun- ty, was appointed as counsel for the senatorial investigators. Armed under the resolution with broad powers - to examine ballot boxes, to subpena witnesses and to take any other action it deemed nec-i essary - and with a $3,500 appro- priation to accomplish its purposes,' the committee was ready to go intoj action. Attorney General Toy dispatched approximately 20 subpenas to Pon- tiac f for the signature of Chairman More of the senate recount investi- gaiion committee. Toy said that I. A. Capizzi and Chester P. O'Hara, two of his assistants who have been con- d ing- the investigation of the t ;. c county recount for his office, will do most of the legal work in con- ncction with the investigation.

O'Hara, chairman of the Democratic state central committee.

Semmes Walmsley and Senator Huey P. Long. Mayor Walmsley, blaming the fi- nancial crisis on the "unprecedented judicial procedure" of Long's govern-j ment in obtaining a state court order tieing up city funds. appealed to the United States court for protection. Under an act of Congress passedj last year, Walmsley took the finan- cial situation yesterday into Federal District Court, which immediatelyI prohibited the state from proceeding against the city today. Walmsley said most of the city employes, scheduled to miss payj checks today, had not been paid since Dec. 23 last year, and called upon business to pay license taxes im- mediately. As the tangle over New Orleans funds became more confused, the Square Deal Association, organized in Baton Rouge to fight Long's dic- tatorship, was spreading into the country parishes. Local "companies" were organized last night at Derriday, in Concordiaj Parish; at Clinton, in East Feliciana Parish, and Bunkie, in Avoyelles Par- ish. Banks, to which the city said it was indebted to the extent of $6,000,-. 000, joined in the city petition to Fed- eral Court. Walmsley said the Federal statuteI "provides that a plan may be entered into between a municipality and its creditors that would permit the mun- icipality to pay all of its creditors out of any plan of financing that is agreed to by a large majority of the creditors, subject to the approval of the United States courts." He said it was "in no sense a bank- ruptcy proceeding" and did not affect the bonded indebtedness of the city. TROOPS MAY GUARD NEGRO (IT MUV T,ANTT f' 1 V.L.LIJ.
