Huey Thinks Woman’s Place Is in Home, Wife and Daughter Indicate

BY MARY MARGARET McBRIDE VEA Service Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Feb. 9 —Woman's place in the ideal world which Senator Huey Kingfish Long is planning to establish when he gets round to it will probably be in the home. At least, that is apparently where he* thinks his own women folks belong, and they, for their part, seem perfectly satisfied with his disposition of them. Mrs. Long and her 17-year-old daughter and namesake, Rose, here for a shoping and sightseeing tour, agree that they are not interested. in politics nor in public life. They feel that most matters of state should be left to man and that a woman's first duty is to be as charming as possible—in her home. They never campaign for the head of their house and take no part in any of his organization activities, though they approve of all of them. They won't risk predictions about what he will or will not do, about such questions as running for President, but of one thing they are sure—whatever he does, it will be the right thing. nun “TkA'Y father is wonderful,” de--IVJL cisively said Rose—dark, vivacious, Southern-voiced, in appearance like Huey himself. “Cross'' No, never! Well, hardly ever! He's got the most wonderful sense of humor. Mother and I never read all those terrible things that the people who don’t like him say, but when he sees something untrue that he thinks is especially funny he \yill .read it to us at the breakfast table and roar with laughter.” Both Mrs. Long and Rose ridiculed the idea that the Kingfish might have sent them on to New York to get them away from Louisiana while the Senator at the state capitol investigates an alleged plot to assassinate him and several other examples of insurrection among his “subjects.” The trip, according to Rose, was a present from her father because she made such good grades that she didn't have to take her midterm examinations at Louisiana State University, where she is a sophomore as well as one of the institution's prettiest girls and best students. She has been having a wonderful time here, only it's rather a handicap to have a prominent father, she admits. nun WITHOUT even sleeping or eating, she could easily fill up all the time, just with sightseeing and theater-going; but because her father is Huey Long, she has had to waste hours and hours having her picture taken and saying the same things over and over. Mrs. Long, who takes life with great calmness and good humor, also regrets that “people found out about us being here,” because she loves to shop. A fervent light comes into her dark eyes when she mentions Manhattan stores and all the lovely things they hold. It isn't so much that she wants to buy what she sees as that she likes to look.

LOWEST DEATH RATE HELD BY N. Y, BOROUGH South Bend, Ind., Third in National Survey; Detroit Second. By United Prest WASHINGTON, Feb. 9—Poets long have pictured the “barefoot lad with cheeks of tan,” as the model of health, but mortality statistics today showed the lowest 1934 death rate in Queens Borough, residential section of New York’s metropolitan millions. The rate for the Borough of Queens, far from the open country, was 6.5 per 1000 of estimated population, according to preliminary’ figures on deaths in 86 American cities. The average for the entire group was 11.4 per 1000. Both figures were slightly higher than those of 1933. Detroit, Mich., was second w r ith a death rate of 7.3 and South Bend, was third with 7.6. Next came the Borough of the Bronx, New’ York City, and Yonkers, N. Y., just up the Hudson from the Metropolis, with 7.8. Medical science battled successfully last year to reduce the infant mortality rate to 54 per 1000 or one less than the previous year. Louisville, Ky., despite its Negro population which usually means a higher infant mortality, reported only 27 out of 1000 babies died during the first year. Lynn, Mass., was second with a rate of 28. Others were Erie, Pa., and Long Beach, Cal., 29; San Francisco, 32; Portland, Ore.; Seattle, Wash.; South Bend, Ind., and New Haven, Conn., 34. and St. Paul and Duluth, Minn., 38.
