Merchants and Chamber of Commerce
Put Over 'White Way"

| The Main Street "Whlte Way"
extending from Weeks Street to
Railroad Avenue, will soon be a
matter of history, according to
Manager Noel of the Chamber of
Commerce, who has been vigor
Ously pushing this project for the
past three weeks, and with just a
bit more co operation amoug the
owners and lessees of property
along the blocks between French
and Jefferson and Jefferson and
French the affair which means q
more attractive center will have
been accomplished.
The co operation secured by the
Chamber of Commerce from the
merchants, lessees and owners of
property between Weeks Avenue
and French Street has been fairly
astonishing, only one merchant,
who is a property owner, posi-.
lively refusing to af1ix his sigma.
ture to the petition to make Main
Street a "White Way"
This CO operation speaks mighty
we'll for the citizenship of New
Iberia and shows that the city
really harbors but few Civic
Slackers and that when q project
is feasible and the folks of New
Iberia are shown where anything
will be of benefit of the City and
community that they will do their
share willingly
Sam Brooks came back into
town from a trip to San Antonio |
and when Mr.. Noel made 1t known
that one and q half units were
needed to complete the quota of
block between Weeks aud Julia
Streets, he signed the petition to
the City 10 just two seconds by
the watch. Blocks Opined that
that would help the city
would necessarily be of benefit to
the community and that he was
one of the community.
l.. F. Villermin's counter project
to place two 500 candle power
lights along the short blocks, in
addition to lights on each corner,
seems to have gotten hold of the
guarantors of the "White Way" II
looks like the logical solution to
the affair. Mr.. Villermln proposes
to place the lights the same
distance apart from Weeks to
Railroad Avenue, which will give
Main Street just about the proper
of illumination.
Mr.. Noel has communicated
with several electric light experts

three weeks and all of them, almost
