COUNCIL OF DEFENSE MEETS.
Steps Taken b Provide Sufficient La
Dor to Harvest the Crops.

The executive committee of the
Ascension Parish Council of Defense
met in special session at the court
house at 8 o'clock last Sunday after
noon, with Chairman John Z. Guyton
presiding, and the following mem
bers present: Walter Lemann, A. S.
Simoneaux, w. B. Stuart and j. F.
Saxon
The members reported satisfactory
progress in their canvass for con-
|tributions to defray the expenses of
the work of the committee.
They also reported that the action
taken by the committee to round UP
|all idlers in the parish and make
them go to work, and to keep labor
agents out Of the parish, met with
universal approval. 1t was the
opinion of all that if these measures
are effectively carried out, enough
labor will be provided to successfully
harvest the heavy rice and sugar
crops in the parish, without the ne
cessity of calling fer assistance from
other sections. The committee also
reported that the small fee imposed
upon the planters 20 defray the ex-
penses of the committee would be
collected with very little if any OPP
position.
Sandy Truaillo, field agent Of the
committee, stated that he had visited
NEARLY all Of the wards and conferred
with many rice planters who are
harvesting their crops in regard to
the work being done by the commit
| tee for their benefit, and that all felt
very much treasured. He told all
| laborers whom he met that drastic
measures would be taken against any.
one who could not show six days
work to his credit each week.
The secretary was instructed te
notify all persons engaged in trans.
ferring labor out of the parish, to dis.
continue the practice at once or they
would be prosecuted. He was also
instructed to have printed and dis
tributed throughout the parish pla
cards, warning all able-bodied mer
to work, fight, or go to Jail, ane
warning labor agents found in thi:
parish to cease their activities.

TAKEN BY FEDERAL OFFICER.
Several Arrested Here for Supplying
Liquor to Soldiers.

80 Liquor 60 SOlolGfSs s%5 5s-s
Deputy United States Marshall
Griffith Of New Orleans came to
Donaldsonville last Tuesday and with
the assistance of Chief of Police r.
E. Dill, placed under arrest several
persons charged with supplying IL
quor to soldiers of the United States
Army. Those arrested were Joseph
Constantine, an Italian saloonkeeper;
Rocca Savoia, an Italian storekeeper;
Junior Dominique, colored bell boy
in the employ of the Hotel Donald
son; John Blanchard, jitney driver,
and Odile Greaux, a white woman
who conducts resort in the restrict
ed district.
It is said that for sometime past
young men wearing the uniform of
the United States army have been
able to obtain liquor in Donaldson
vile, but owing to the great secrecy
and roundabout way in which the
traffic was conducted, it was sometime
before the officers Of the law CLEANED
sufficient facts to justify action on
their part. Finally, however, it was
|ascertained that the liquor was OBJ
tanned at the home of the Greaux
woman. A close watch was kept on
this house and it was found that the
liquor was bought there by Junior
Dominique in the automobile belong
ingrt to John Blanchard. Further in
Mitigation disclosed the t act that the
liquor was brought there by Junior
of Joseph Constantine, and that JOS
eph Constantine being an unnatural
lied citizen the license for the saloon
conducted by him was taken out in
the name of Rocca Savoia.
1t appears that the federal author
r. sas had worked out the case
tn b2ughly before Mr.. Griffith came
to D5naldsonville, as whenEthat Of
fetal arrived he called upon Chief OF
Police Dill, presented him with list
of the names of the persons whom he
sought and asked the officer to assist
him in locating them. The persons
arrested were taken to New Or
leans by the Deputy Marshall on the
1:15. 7. & P. train Tuesday after
noon.
The accused were given a prelim-
mary hearing before the proper
federal authority Wednesday and
bond in each case fixed at $1,000
Savoia, Constantine and Blanchard
furnished bail and were released and
have returned to Donaldsonville
Dominique and the Greaux woman
being unable to give bond are still in
prison. All of the accused will be
tried before the United States Dis
trict Court, at Baton Rouge, at ar
early date.
