A GULF COAST
INTER- R-URBAN
SURVEY

Slidell, La, May 27.-At meet
ing of the executive committee of the
Gulf Coast Inter-urban Project, held
at Biloxi, May 21st, an interesting
tee composed of H. S. Weston, of
Logtown, Miss, Thos. L. Willis, City
Engineer of the city of New Orleans,
and L. G. Irving, of Mobile, Ala,
suggesting that in order to determine
the feasibility Of the project COM
plete survey of the proposed line be
made by competent engineers.
Two bids were received for this
survey, the one of Jas. w. Bilingsly
of New Orleans for $4,000 being
the lowest. After some discussion it
was unanimously decided to employ
Mr.. Billingly to make the survey,
the cost to be pro-rated among the
interested communities ON the fol-
lowing basis: New Orleans, $4,000;
Mobile, $25O0; Harrison County,
$4,000; Hancock County, $1250;
Jackson County, $3.50; St. Tam
many Parish, $1,000.
1t was pointed out that such a
survey as the one proposed would in
clude a comprehensive study of the
territory traversed by the proposed
road, pointing out its present de-
velopment and future possibilities,
would be of great value to the COM
munities interested, even though the
road itself should never be built.
The proposed road would pass
through about Is miles of st. Tam
many parish and the. proposed sur
vey Of our resources by an expert in
this line of work would be worth
more than the amount asked from
our parish.
committee has been appointed to
raise this amount and turn it over
to Mr.. H. S. Weston, treasurer, at

DIR. GRIFFITH OBJECTS.

Slidell La, May 81, 1919.
Editor st. Tammany Farmer:
am reliably informed that a
young man of Covington has been
criticising me on account of my
recent stand in regard to the New
Orleans to Logtown Highway, and
that he has dubbed me a hot-head
and agitator. | am probably guilty
of the charge, but believe that a ma
iority Of those most interested will
consider that an agitator is REQUIRED
at this time.
Every public position that has been
given to Or that has been assumed by
me, has received all Of the attention
or energy that was required of me.
On the other hand, just few months
ago my critic had to be replaced in
the office that he held in the Parish
Council Of Defense, because he neg
lected the duties of his office.
/ am willing to be criticised by a
man that has proven himself to be
100 per cent American, otherwise |

Our records are open for. com
parison as far as am concerned.

To the Voters of the Town of Gov

My announcement for the office o.

The Farmer. Until recently / have
been inviting the public to examine
into my official record as Alderman
particularly, with respect to my po
sition as Chairman of the Finance
Committee During the meantime
however, the entire citizenship o1
Covington has agreed upon the exist,
ing administration, and no opposi-
ton, therefore, is urged against any
member of the present Town Ceun,
Gil for reelection. Accordingly my
work stands endorsed by the public
without question.
Two years ago, when / was elect
ed, the issue before the people was
not of man and man, but the ques-
tion was whether Covington was
bankrupt or not. l think, as Chair
man of the Finance Committee OF
the town, | have established to the
citizens and the banking world that
Covington is not bankrupt slander
which all should be glad to repudiate
| have not lived in Covington from
the time Of my birth, but | have al
ready spent ten of the most useful
years of my life in the town; have
made my home and established all OF
my interests here permanently; and
will claim the privilege, as many OF
our best citizens have, of being
tod RI mo
more.

public schools Of Louisiana and am a
graduate from the Tulane University
of Louisiana. / have spent twelve
years in the practice of law, and !
,hink | have made a success Of my
profession So far as my personal
record is concerned, l invite my
friends to scan every page with the
closest scrutiny.
l shall make no rash promise OF
increasing improvements and de-
creasing the revenues. | refuse to
obligate myself to a number of crank
reforms" | have had all the OPP
portunity in the last two years to
initiate any of these SO called i'm
provements, if | had so desired.
If am elected Mayor, l can assure
the public Of but one determination
on my part, and that is, to continue
the policy of the present administra-
tion to spend no money that is not
available; to operate the towns af-
fairs on a cash basis as has been done
during the past two years, and to
guaratnee that the rate of taxation
will not increase one per cent over
the existing rate during my term of
office All ordinances will be en-
forced conscientiously and rigorous
ly; every citizen will be given a
square deal, and no man or faction,
or corporation, can suggest
themselves to me either through fear
or favor.
Respectfully,
ADRIANSD. SCHWARTZ,
Candidate for Mayor.
