IS AGAIN DELAYED

No sooner had normal traffic been re.
sumed over the Louisville & Nashville
railroad bridge at Biloxi, which was
damaged by a schooner last Sunday
afternoon during the heavy blow. which
struck the gulf coast, than news came
that the Rigolets bridge, thirty miles
this side of New Orleans had been put
out of commission when self-pro-
PEELED barge of the Warrior system
OF the United States Railroad Admin
istration tried to pass through the
draw. became lodged in it, and broke
the main base casting, thereby making
it impossible to use the bridge for traf-
fic until it is fixed. The Biloxi bridge
had been opened only about hours,
and but few trains had been run over
the repaired structure, when the Rig
Diets bridge was put out of commission.
Engineers and their forces were
rushed to the scene Immediately, and
every effort is being made to temper
arily repair the bridge.
The damaged chords which were
bent when the barge struck the draw,
have been sent to New Orleans where
they are being fabricated. If no hitch
comes in the program, it is expected
that the piece can be put back in place
so that trains NAV start running early
Saturday morning.

SHALL WE GO HUNGhrF

II there was ever time IN 'he
history OF our great country "he'i al
safe and sane citizens should organize
for the general good, that time is ROW.
There is already shortage OF ioou
throughout the world, unauthorized
strikes in various sections are destroy
ing thousands of tons OF the scaiiI
supply we have and the farm is al
ready distressingly short of labor for
next year with no supply in slght'
The Mississippi Landowners Asso-
citation is being organized to first
..help the man we have and that
means to help the fellow on the farm
who is struggling to produce some
thing to keep back the wolf OF hunger
and against distressing odds. Should
it happen that the farmer is forced 10
pay 81 to Sc for an eight hour day ana
thirty hour week, as is being contend
ed for in Industrial centers, flour
would sell for SIS per barrel and meat
at 50 per pound.
It looks like less labor on the farm
next year than was available this, and
at much higher prices. Food stulfs
are short now, and as has been stated,
is fast growing shorter, If there is
not help for those who are striving to
feed the world, there will be hunger
and suffeing before another twelve
months pass by. 1t is imperative that
something be done to relieve the stu
alton.
Alex. P. Sullivan, an experienced
man has entered the field in Missis-
sippi and is working hard to get our
people, without reference to financial
standing, together in a great organi-
cation for development work and as a
balance wheel, or conservative force
between contending factions, to help
the man we have to get on his feet
and after that, secure additional forces
to join in uplift work for all.
The situation confronting our peo-
Pile, the seriousness of which is suf- |
icient to command their earnest con-
;ideration and solicitation, warrants
he prophecy that this organization
will grow rapidly and prove a power
ul force in bringing order out of the |
,haotic coalition with which we are |
confronted on every hand.
