bodies as the War Industries Board,
Aircraft Production Board. The CONNER

as a great administrative laboratory:
and other similar government war
agencies The Council Of National De-

needs of a live Chamber of Com
merce and it behooves every citi-
zen to be present next Tuesday
night at 7 100 o'clock. Your
presence is requested and all
good citizens are earnestly invited
to take part in perfecting this or
ganization.
AS stated repeatedly in these
columns, our little City must
! be found in the forward march
column, or else she is bound to
take a step backward. With the
great internal improvements I'M
derway, thus denoting that the
people Of New Iberia, as a whole,
are as progressive as any other
city, we must now take steps to
advance along commercial lines.
If, through the efforts of an or
ganization, as is proposed to or
ganize we only help to put on a
substantial basis the industries We
now have we have then succeeded
in doing something that Will re-
dOund for the general good. We
must take care of every industry
and business house in New iberia
so that first of al thew will thrive
like those in far away cities. We
have in our midst several indus
tries that with a little capital and
cooperation would grow in leaps
and ..ounds and soon become work
shops that would give employment
to several hundred people a
"buy- tome" camDaign, edu-
eating our citizens of the great
need to give the local man. the
preference when possible, would
of itself do great deal towards
hrin~in" additional prosperity to
the business men of New Iberia.
There are hundreds Of things that
will come up before a Chamber OF
Commerce during the year apper-
tanning to the general welfare OF
all, and no matter how small
man. s business might be. he should
feel Just as interested in standing
back Of the Chamber of Commerce.
Let all the citizens who are really
interested in seeing our little City
forge to the front be on hand next
Tuesday night to Give helping
hand in this worthy cause. 1t is
as much your business as it is any
one eIse's and no one should be
Stacker. What we need now IS
nothing but community co-opera-
ton and decided change will
soon be prevalent. We have the
best town in Louisiana from many
standpoints; we have only to find
ourselves and start boosting and
very soon the fruits Of our labor
will speak for itself.
