Several Members Delivered Interesting Talks.

ing period Of the year previous,
which is certain indication of
prosperity.
Rev. II. n. Brown spoke Of the
Boy Scouts and their work and
seemed much enthused over the
backing they are receiving from
New Iberia citizens. The Scout
movement, which is one of the
greatest projects fostered by the
government, has taken on consla-
cradle impetus in the past few
months and the future voters OF
New iberia are also enthused over
the prospects of their future wei
fare in the community.
Hon. Louis P. Bryant, lawyer,
in an address much over the dl-
lotted three minutes, advocated
several moves which the Chamber
of Commerce now has under way
and voiced the opinion that farm
ers from other sections should be
lmportuned and shown the fertile
lands of iberia Parish.
In his closing remarks, Hon
orable Walter J. Burke thanked
the ladies Of the New iberia Sex
tettes for the music and vocal
numbers rendered during the IN
termissions. Thanks were ex-
tended to Mrs. Harry S. Suther-
lin, Mrs. Albert Hill, Miss Regina
Landry, Miss Sophia Landry, Miss
Inez DeBlanc and Miss Rita

(By Frank Noel)

Cooperation between the mer-
chant and the consumer is abso-
lutely essential to the future well
fare of New liberia. This opinion
not only is voiced by the writer
but the merchants also have TAX
en- up the subject of enticing New
Iberia folks to spend their money
with home merchants so that the
general prosperity of the City NAV
be one of the shining lights of this
community. The entire PROPOSE
ton Is cooperative affair in the
highest sense Of the word. The
merchants are to display their
wares to the best advantage, use
a bit of printers S ink to let people
know what they have in stock
and when they are out of an arti-
Gle called for by the consumer 70
bend their efforts to please them
bv ordering same for them or by
showing the customer something
that viii easily fill his or her
needs, as the case may be.
On the other hand it evolves
upon the people to show an inter-
est in the prosperity of the mef-
chants and the City in general for
when the merchant is prosperous
and the moneys are spent in New
Iberia it reflects credit upon the
Loyalty of the people. It shows
that they have an interest in the
City where they make their re-
spective lvelihoods.
Money spent in New Orleans
for goods which could be pnr-
chased in New iberia, whereby the
local merchant could make a fair
profit, does New Iberia absolutely
no good. There is no profit FOR
New iberia when moneys are spent
III New Orleans or other large eeiis
tiers, for its the New iberia mer-
chants who are paying the bills.
Without their support. for they
are the backbone Of the City, New
Iberia would soon drop back to
the point Of obscurity.
When a public movement is on
foot the first people of New Iberia
to be requested to make a good
sized donation are the merchants.
Every one of them are expected
whether we trade with them or
MOTTO contribute.
Now looking at it from a disin-
terested viewpoint alone and put
this question: ''Is it fair to the
merchant of the City to buy your
goods in some other city and then

The Chamber of Commerce
luncheon at the Hotel Frederic
Thursday at ] P. M. was indeed a
lively affair, five scheduled three
minute talks rounding out the pro-
gram in addition to the eats,
which were enjoyed to the limit.
With Honorable Walter j.
Burke officiating as POSTMASTER
the assemblage made itself at
home. Mr.. Burke in his introduc-
ton of the opening speaker, Mc.
Lewald, interspersed his remarks
with the admonition that each
member present make himself Il
committee of one to bring at least
one other member or prospective
member to the next luncheon 50
that all interested persons might
know the work now being under
taken by the Chamber of Com
merce. His remarks were well
met
Mr.. Alfred Lewald in his adj
dress laid particular stress upon
the cooperation Of the merchant
with the consumer or customer,
and said that each merchant
should endeavor in every way to
please the home people and try to
induce them to do their trading
at home, making it a cooperative
affair in every sense of the word.
He also proposed that each mer-
chant, if he has not the goods re-
quested by the purchaser, to send
them to another New Iberia con-
cern and not do as one salesman

would have to send to New Or

Mr.. A. B. Murray made most
interesting address on co-opera-
ton between the Chamber Of Com
merce and the real estate dealer
and advocated in no small way the
move to build more houses. "New
iberia is again fast growing and
,ae we. haye nnt. adeqllate housing
facilities at this time for the work
ers of the factory which is now
being erected and others that will
come at later date, it is abso-
Iutely essential to build more
houses he said.
Mr.. @. A. Barnes, agent for the
Southern Pacific Railroad, spoke
in most glowing terms of the
impetus to new business in New
Iberia. He took as the criterion
of his remarks the fact that freight
shipments have increased from
fifty to eighty per cent. in the past

ORIENTAL GOODS IN
 AMERICAN MARKET
But Influx Has Not Injured
 Domestic Trade

Washington, Jan. 27.-Despite the
 steady growth of imports from Japan
 since the signing of the armistice, of
 ficials of the department of conl-
 merce today declared that American
 markets have been but little affected
 by the influx of oriental goods. Inn
 ports from Japan have increased
 mainly in value rather than in quan-
 tity, it is said.
 During the Il months ending with
 November, 1919, the latest available figures, America imported goods val ued at $367.13O.1S7 from Japan, com- pared with S264,269,5O2 in 1918 and $23S, ,550,617 in 1917.
 One reason for the increase in i'm ports is the shipping facilities, now available, officials declare, though Japan's expansion in foreign trade is regarded as general. Japanese goods which are sent to this country, how ever, are of the cheaper grades, it | is said, and do not compete with the ! high class American manufa cures. 1 Low grade paper and cotton goods, 1 tea, vegetable oils, silk and bamboo manufactures are said to form the bulk of the Japanese imports. The l only classes of manufactures in which l l a competitive footing are toys and q 1 few novelties in which the two coun- l tries now led the world, officials say. The constant increase in Japan'S 1 export trade not only with the Unit 1 ed States but with the world indi- ] cates a heavy demand will be made 1 in the far East for American ma l chinery and mechanical devices, eX- perts declare. Japan, it is said can manufa cture cheaply low grade goods but must import machinery with 1 which to 10 it. Trade experts seem l to concede that Japan will control the trade of the far East in the cheaper lines but they believe the de- mand for American manufacturing machinery and office appliances will keep step with the growth of Japanese trade.
 No invasion of the American mar kets by Japanese manufacturers is expected by trade experts of the de- partment of commerce. At present Japan has the advantage over Flu
 rOpean exporters they say, because
 of the unsettled conditions brought on
 by the war. But when the indus
 tries of Europe have readjusted them
 selves d return of the normal flow of
 imports into the United States is
 looked for For the next few years

MEXICAN DOLLARS
 76 FOR A HUNDRED
Meanwhile British Pound Has
 Been Quoted $S.70

Shanghai. Jan. 27.-While Amer1- cans have been buying British pound sterling in New York for s3.iO or less, Americans here have been paying S1O0 in American gold for 76 Mexican dollars which are in current use here.
 This urprec edented advance ill the rate of exchange in Shanghai has been due to the acute rise ill the price of silver. Probably no country in the world has been more sharply affected by this enhanced value of silver than has China.
 In consequence of the confused state of exchange, the foreign trade through this city, China's principal commercial center, became more or less disorganized. Exporters ceased to look for new business and confined their activities wholly to filling old contracts from the terms of which they would have been glad to escape.
 Shanghai bankers held frequent conferences day and night in an effort to determine what might be done to stabilize the exchange rates. For one day all but one of the leading banks in the city declined to issue drafts in connection with export shipments to America. These exporters who buy their goods in China for silver and sell them abroad 1Of SOlo SulIereQ most severely. They were obliged to restrict operations or raise prices wherever the goods were sold.
 On the other hand importers who buy their goods in America and are paid for them in Mexican dollars have prospered.
 One of the difficulties arising from the exchange situation is that much of the business here IS done under terms arranged several years ago when an American dollar was worth two Mexican dollars or more. Conse- quently foreign workers here have suffered.
 The bankers concluded that one so- iution of the problem would be to in crease the price of China's products throughout the world.
