New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1916-07-22

ZenS OF this community have been
annoyed and provoked by the
caprices Of a number Of young
stcrs, both white and black, who
take advantage of the Juvenile
Law and commit all kinds Of dep
relation that has now become
unbcarabIc. These bows have
now reached the point where they
are entering homes that are IN
tcnanted and steal everything
THAT is of value that they can
Icarry away and sell to those who
make it a business TO buy brass
and other stuff which is often
sold as junk. On Monday, the
unoccupicd houses of Mrs Alpine
Fontelicu and Mr.. j. w Eckart
were entered and the electric
bulbs taken and carried away
to be disposed of at some future
time. Yards are entered and
! the faucets withdrawn from els
terms which is afterwards re
placed with wooden pegs to keep
passers-by from detecting the
noise from the flowing water after
the faucets are taken out. There
is no telling how many small rob
berries these children have com
mittcd in this community and I'M
der the law they cannot be placed
in Jail. From what we learn
steps are to be taken to have
some Of them placed in the State
Reformatorv as soon as the nee
cssary papers can be drawn up
and accommodations can be found
for their Incarceration. Some
thing should be done before these
bows commit some serious crime in
this community which is bound
to occur unless they are taken
off the Streets. Arson or murder
will be their next Offense and in
that case the citizens of New he
ria who do not interest them
selves in trying to get these bad
bows where they will be trained
to become GOOD citizens will be
partly to blame.

A meeting is called to take
place in the Court House in this
City of the members of the
Rice Growers Association recent
ly organized in the Teche Par
ishes this afternoon at 4 o'clock.
From what we learn about eighty
per cent of the rice growers in
iberia have signed up as honi fide
members of the organization
which was formed for the pur-
pose of protecting themselves
against the manipulators Of the
rice market who has been operat-
mo for a number of years to the
actual detriment of those engaged
in the culture Of rice in this Sec
ton of the State. This move
ment among our farmers is bound
to rebound to their mutual bene-
fit if they all stick together when
the crop is ready to be harvested
and put upon the market. Con-
ditions at the present are such
that our farmers ought to realize
a nice profit when the harvesting
and marketing seasons begins.
ORGANIZATION is what the farmers
need and the movement to protect
themselves this year is one that
should have crystalized many sea-
sons ago, if it had. our farmers
would to-day be Independent and
Cisterns and Tanks. Screen

Among the visitors in New
iberia this week was Mr.. Sam
Adams, an Americanized Syrian,
who is touring the country in an
effort to make his people take out
papers and enlist
N the U. s. Army. like all other
people do from other countries
vho make the United States their
nome. Mr.. Adams SAYS there are
100000 Syrians enjoying the
right to make living in this
country and who are afforded
every protection afforded our
natives and not more than $4,000
their services in the
cause of our Government, which
Re very correctly says is q re-
lection upon his people. In New
iberia alone there are about twen-
