ST. MARY POLICE JURY APPROPRIATES
$1,000 FOR CONSTRUCTION OF BAYOU
CAROLINE ROADWAY LINK
LOCAL BODY THAT SIMILAR ACTION WILL BE TAX
EN- BY THEM-ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION WORK COM
MENCES TODAY BY N. S. HUTH COMPANY.

A good roads committee composed
of police jury members from the par
ishes Of Terrebonne and Lafourche,
Chamber of Commerce officials and
plain veryday boosters, appeared
before the st. Mary Police Jury yes
terday at it's regular meeting and
Convinced that body Of the import
ance of proposed road work on the
Bayou Caroline cutoff to the extent
that $1,000 was appropriated for this
purpose. Jury representatives from
Aeighboring parishes assured the st.
Mary jurors that their official bodies
stood ready to back CUP the action
taken here with similar appropri
ations. Two thousand seven hundred
and twenty-five dollars has thus been
raised and with the additional sums
promised from the other police juries
the fund will be boosted to S4,725.
An approximate cost of $4,000 has
been estimated for dredge work, fill
ing pockets and establishing a dirt
roadway. The N. S. Huth Company
of Franklin, which is under contract
for this preliminary work, was in
structed to commence work today.
Mr.. C. C. Krumbhaar of Houma,
president Of the Houma- -Terrebonne
Association Of Commerce, was chair
man and spokesman Of the commit
tee. He opened the discussion before
the jury with a brief but impressive
talk concerning the pressing need of
this proposed roadway improvement.
His remarks were seconded by Presi-
dent Sanders Of the Terrebonne Po-
lice Jury. Dr.. MELVILLE, also Of Hou-
ma, presented an original thought to
the jurors when he emphasized that
this work concerned everybody's road
and everybody should display their
interest by boosting in every way
possible.
A message Of cooperation from La
fourche was brought by Mr.. E. H.
Payne, who said he was authorized to
speak for the Police Jury, the Cham
Der of Commerce, and the people of
that parish as a whole. Mr.. Payne
stated that 100000 had been voted
in his parish for road work-ample
evidence that Lafourche is for this
form of community improvement
strong. He also delivered mes
sage from the president of the As
Police Jury, who assured
him that every assistance may be ex-
pected from them. Jolice Juror
Roger from Lafourche spoke a few

words urging the appropriation.

words urging the appropriation.
Secretary Van Pelt of the Houma-
Terrebonne Association of Commerce
impressed the jurors with the state
ment that the great state highway,
extending from Houston to New Or
leans, of which the Bayou Caroline
cutoff will be a connecting link, has
been recognized by both state and
federal authorities as a roadway of
military Importance. Federal High
way Engineer J. B. Fauntleroy has
assured Terrebonne that government
assistance might be expected for the
completion of the Houma Bayou
Black link. Aid from this same
source will undoubtedly be extended
for the Bayou Caroline work, assert
ed Mr.. Van Pelt "In view of the
Importance of this project, as ex
pressed by the government, this road
should and must be built as quickly
as possible" said the live-wire secre.
tary from Houma.
The motion for appropriation was
made by Juror Gooch and seconded
by Mr.. Boudreaux.
Mr.. J. D. Ehrlich, representing the
Chamber Of Commerce of Morgan
City and Berwick, thanked the jury
for the favorable action taken. Mr..
C. c. Krumbhaar, representing Terre-
bonne, also expressed appreciation.
The same committee with the ad-
dition Of Mr.. T. Aucoin Of the St.
Mary Police Jury, will meet with the
members Of the Lafourche Jury on
the morning Of September II and
with the Assumption parish body on
the evening of the same day. SINH
lar appropriations from these juries
will definitely assure the committee
of successful consummation of their
plans and to the people Of this sec
ton that an undertaking is to be car
ried out which will spell added op-
portunities for prosperity to all and
material assistance to our govern
ment in its needs for the carrying on
of the war.

committee who were present at the
jury meeting in Franklin yesterday
were:

K. R. Hood, Local Representative
Urged By State Recruiting
Secretary To Obtain Suit
able Men Immediately

The following letters have been re-
ceived by Mr.. f. R. Hood, local rep
resentative of the Army Y. M. c. A.
work, relative to the demand for
workers:
Baton Rouge, La,
August 80, 1918.
Mr.. K. R. Hood, Local Representa-
tive Army Y NJ. C. A., Morgan
City, La:
Dear Sir-From France comes the
demand that we supply sufficient
automobile mechanics to keep the
motor trucks going. Many cars are
standing idle and transportation of
supplies for soldiers is hampered be
cause of lack of men able to repair the
trucks The War Council is perpared
to make liberal allowance to expert
auto mechanics who qualify for Y.
NJ. C. A. war work
We are urged to exert ourselves to
the utmost to obtain Immediately as
many suitable men as possible. Prob
ably the best way to get them is by
personal interviews with those CON
sidered suitable. You should enroll
several in your city when you tell
them of the great need for their serv-
ices. and how important to the sue
cess of our armies in this work.
We are also enclosing copy of a
letter received by Col. T. D. Boyd,
president of L. S. u, from Prof. H.
W. Stopher, musical instructor at the
university, who has entered Y. NJ. C.
A. war work, and is now at the train
ing school at Camp Travis, Texas.
We feel sure you will find it inter-
esting, and can use it to advantage
in interviews with prospects.
Please do not delay efforts to OBJ
tan auto mechanics.
The call is almost as insistant for
accountants and men who can be
trained as physical and play direc-
tors.
1ouTS very truly,
A. K. JONES,
State Recruiting Secretary.

winning Of the war.
The players may be unframed
in ther pursuits. But a strong,
healthy man can be taught to be
valuable man in an essential
occupation in a short time.
The public does need baseball-the
national game as sport. But the
amateur teams playing in the open
parks will furnish sport for the fans
and millions of men and boys who are
now playing one-cat in their back
yard, the street or corner lot, will
keep right on with this healthful
sport.
The writer is lover OF baseball
as a sport-He would like to see the
big leagues continue and hopes they
do. They can by recalling old players
above the draft age and by calling in
younger players now starring in minor
circuits and amateur leagues.
But the writer has felt all along as
though the magnates were laying back
in the harness patriotically because
their love for the almighty nickel was
their ruling passion.
Maybe this will be a lesson for them
and they will handle the game with a
better spirit when the war ends.

''everything that otherwise would go
to the waste pile. and which could be
turned into cash"
The state council suggests that in
the larger counties, this work could
be turned over to the township coun-
cils, which could establish headquar-
ters in each township, with large
central clearing house, perhaps in the
county seat. 1t is proposed that the
money derived from the collection of
this otherwise wasted material might
be applied to "meritorious purposes"
but the mort important object of the
enterprise is to save for further use.
where possible, the material which
heretofore has been thrown away as
a total loss.
Every County Council Of Defense is
urged to give this question of con-
servation in other states, and found a

the catarrh infection must be driven
