SENATE MAY O. K. RAISE
IN SALARIES OF JUDGES

The Senate. is expected to adopt the
conference report, on the bill to in
crease the salary of the judiciary
within short time.
This is the bill which increases the
pay, among others, Of the judges OF
the District Supreme Court to $500
a year and of the Court OF Appeals OF
the District to. $500 a year.
The House has. adopted the con-
ference report and the favorable -ac-
ton by the Senate will pass the bill
and put II up to the President.
Criticisms OF Congressman Gard in
the House that the judicial procedure
here is Rntiquated and that reports Of
the Department of Justice that 1000
criminal cases had been tried before
the District Supreme Court in a year
are misleading. will not affect the
action of the Senate. Hr. Gard said
he understood it was the Icustom to
count each case at each court and
this resulted in an ERRONEOUS cAIcula-
tion and did Washington a great in
justice. 60

JUDGE or THE 23RD JUDI
CIAL COURT.
We, the foreman and members q
the Grand Jury beg leave to file thi,
our final report:
The matters principally occupying
the attention Of this body have in al
most every instance been related t.
the affairs which pertain to the &C
QUESTION and maintenance OF gooC
roads III this parish. In our find.
ings. we have been guided by the in
formation secured from witnesse.
who are COgnlzant Of such affairs and
the recommendation we make are
based on tn. information secured
We recommend that the Police
Jury use their authority III the inves-
ti4ation Of drainage districts now in
operation in the parish and that they
become possessed Of facts which may
or may not show that each drainage
and sub-draina4e district is carving
out the purposes for which ii was
created. We recommend further that
the tax payers in drainage districts
investigate the workings of the drain
age districts in which they are inter
csted with a view to cooperating
witt the parish road overseers in
order to make possible the repairs Of
the public roads effected BY the pro-
per or improper working Of drainage
systems. This is especially men
toned because the information
placed before us IS t. the effect that
road repairs in some places in estab-
lished drainage districts are imprac-
ticable on account Of the drainage
system being neglected and which.
instead Of carrying out its intended
purpose as a drain. has been so ne
elected that it acts rather as a deter
rent factor and causes waters from
rainfall and rice fields to stand upon
roads and destroy their utility as
public highways We also recon-
mend th,t maps Of all drainage and
,ub-draina9e districts be filed with
the Clerk Of Court
In further considering the matter
u rp.ds. this jury finds that the
completion Of the tick eradication
PROGRAM will release considerable
revenue which may be applied to
road maintenance. 1t is the opinion
~ this body that the eradication o.
t.eks is a matter Of vital importance
T. the welfare Of the parish and
worthy the best Of attention and CO
pcration Of all citizens and off
.ials. and that It should be carried |
nut t. the end intended II te j
ieved that such full cooperation VIII
permit of an earlier completion uf
he rnovemcnt than the haphazard |
manner i'll which certain sections Of
h" rish are meeting the required
.rditions The earlier the compile

Information brought before the
Grand Jury IS to the effect that the
efforts of the Parish Road Oycreecr
rave been largely expended in but
anc ward Of the parish This jury
does not mean to convey the idea
that there has been any unnecessary
wpr> done in the enc ward but that
and that there should be an equt-
able distribution OF the efforts which
are expended by the parish in the
matter of road repairing. It seems
as much IN need of road repairing
that more work has been done in d
certain ward because in that ward
| the Road Oycrseer found a ready CO.
| operation on the part on the resident
member of the Police Jury and cit
ilens ot the ward that no effort has
been made in certain other WfrdS be
cause the drainage conditions would
make all work So expended absn-
lutely useless 1t seems that wealth

there are other w9rds which are just

OverSecr IN his efforts and have in
tcrierred seriously with his plans to

tiles In this connection. we recon-
mend that more interest be made

Oldest sugar companies in the United
States and the owner of one Of the
largest sugar refneries in this coun-
try.
The concern does an annual bust
ness in excess of $50,000,00O, the out
put of the Philadelphia refinery being
1000 barrels day. The company
expects, however, to refine all the
sugar produced on its Everglade plan
tation right here, and to transport the
product from the plantation through
the canal to the boatside ON barges.
The sugar men look for the present
sugar shortage to continue for the
next 10 or 20 years, and the present
step was taken in the hope Of enlarg-
ing production and to make the com.
pany largely independent of other
sources of supply. This is the first
time that the company has engaged
in the raising of sugar cane, but the
resident engineer, Mr.. Harris, who
will superintend the project, has in.
stalled and operated mills in Haiti
Santo. Domingo and Porto Rico and is
considered to be particularly well
equipped by experience to handle the
Everglades development.

Fishing at st. Pete

One eastern angler came here to
fish, few years ago. He had caught
many kinds of fish and was good
handler of rod and reel but he had
never seen a tarpon. He wanted to
get one of the big ones. He did;
that is, he hooked it. To the aston
ishment of the guide the man hurried
~ tossed his rod and reel overheard
in the midst of the first rush of the
tarpon he had hooked. The guide
yelled at him, demanding to know
why he had done such a foolish thing.
To the guide the man explained as
follows:
81 had no fish on my line. I was
hooked onto a German submarine or
a team of mules, or something like
that. I did not want to be dragged

That man never went fishing again

said, and was willing to quit. st
