LAFAYETTE INSTITUTE
BOYS ON BIG SPREE.
Grand Jury After Sellers Of
Elicit Booze.

More than a dozen young men
who are attending South " estern
Industrial Institute went before
the grand jury Tuesday and told
the jurors the details of q recent
jag that got them into trouble
with the Institute faculty, and the
Prohibition Enforcement officer at
New Orleans has taken up the case
for investigation An to where the
boys got their whiskey.
DR.. +. L. Stephens was at tirst
incllned to expel the boys from
school for being drunk, but they
were SO cOntrite and az it was
their first offense he decided that
they were not az muck 10 blame ~
she man who sold them the booze.
SO be escorted the boys to the
court house and asked the grand
jury TO hear their stories. Previ
ously however, after consulting
with the parents of some of the
boys, DR.. Stevens notified the
federal officials at New Orleans
and il is understood thar action
now is being taken by them TO
gather evidence and make arrests.
Bootlegging is the natural SO
quence of prohibition, aud these
eases of minors getting drunk are
the natural result of bOOtIegging
and blind tigers over which lt
seems impossible to exercise any
restraining influence Az one
prominent citizen aptlya remarked
today, We conld keep the boys
out of the open saloon, but it is
impossible to keep them out Of the
blind tigers unless you can find
the blind tigers"
Parents of the boys involved are
cooperating with Dr. Stevens and
the feder al officials will get every
possIble assistance in runnipg
down the bootIeggers and getting
the necessary evidence to convict
them.

the Chamber Of Commerce meeting
appearing herewith in this issue OF
The Iberian. a committee composed ci
the publishers of The Enterprise and
The Iberian, was appointed at Tues
day nights meeting to draw up a
statement and forward same to the

responsibility on the part Of the New
Iberia Chamber of Commerce for the
article written by Mr.. Frank Noel,
which was printed in The Item on
Monday Of this week.
The two local papers were also re.
quested to publish this statement for

rectors that every citizen get the af.

A STATEMENT FROM THE NEW

(AuthoriZed by the Board of Directors.
In the Item of October 4, appeared
an article under the title "Somethings
To Be Rectified", and stated TO be an
answer to your question What Is The
Matter With Louisiana? contributed
by Frank Noel, and signed by him as
Secretary of the New Iberia Chamber
of Commerce. Out of spirit Of fair
ness to the State Of Louisiana, and es-
pecially this section Of the State. we
as body wish to disclaim any con
nection with the publication of this
article.
Out of desire for justice TO cur
selves we also wish to state that MIR.

of Directors on Tuesday. September IS.
The article under discussion was
wr itten by him in a spirit of venom
and revenge, Notwithstanding the fact
that we paid him two months' salary.

charge of unfair treatment accorded
by Louisiana TO strangers.

CANNING FACTORY
HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR
Plan To Extend Business
Before 1921 Opening.

On Tuesday of this week the
Canning factory closed down for
the 1920 season after what proved
to be a gratifyiDgiy successful run
OF several weeks
The acreage contracted for in
Okra was sufficient. to have made
fully twice the total output secured
in this particular line, bat the
average yield was greatly curtailed
by the unprecedented stretch of
rainy weather during the growing
season.
As it was, however, the total
reached a little over 80, 600 cases
of Okra, all of which had been
contracted or sold before it was
packed.
The returns to the farmers for
their produce, considering the
small expense attached to the
growing of okra, were most en-
couragiDg. One man reports
clearing one hundred dollars per
acre Ou a small patch of few
acres while some who undertook
too large a scale for the first year
did not do SO we'll. General salts
faction must have resulted to the
farmers, as many are seeking TO
contract larger amounts for 1927
than they produced this past sea-
son.
Mr.. Frick, Secretary of the con
cerD, stated in an interview We'd
npsday that they will not can any
cane syrup this year as was at
first intended.
The prospects Of twenty dollar
cane q few months ago decided
them against entering the syrup
end Of the business, aud when the
market broke a few weeks back il,
was too late for them to ge,
equipment ready for this Falls

However, the next cane crop
will find New Iberia's factory fully
prepared 20 turn out high grade
syrup of the same excellent quail
ties Is their Okra, figs and other
products.

Threatened Coal Crisis
Meets Govt. Action.
SITUATION ACUTE THROUGH.
OUT THE COUNTRY.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-Govern-
ment action is to be taken to prevent
an acute coal shortage with which
some sections of the United States
are threatened, officials here indicated
today.
| Following conference at the White
House between J. p. Tumulty, secre-
tary to the President, and Daniel Will
lard, president of the B. and 0. rail-
road, it was stated that the coal situa-
ton would be taken up with the
proper authorities
/ 1t was understood the efforts OF the
Labor Department and the interstate
commerce commission would be used
to increase production and facilitate
delivery of coal to sections threaten
ed with famine.
Middle western states, including
Ohio, Indiana and Michigan, have sent
Representatives in an effort to get
more coal.
| The coal supply for this immediate
Vicinity is becoming matter of
lgrave concern to our local dealers,
land those industries using large
amouts of coal for fuel are kept in
Icontinual anxiety for fear of having
to close down.
| The City Light and Water Plant
|probably the largest consumer Of coal
lin this part Of the country has at
times gotten down to its last few
ltons, and has only received further
shipments when but few hours more
would have seen the last shovel full
fed under the boilers.
The city plant, the ice factory ane
some of the nearby sugar mills have
been loaning and borrowing among
each other for the past several weeks
land by this cooperation only have al
been kept in operation.
For this reason it is hoped that tn
government conference will have i'm
mediate results in speeding up pro
duction, and that an equitable distri
button to al parts Of the countr'
Twill be Forthcoming.

There are three kinds OF homes In

Queer, Isn't 1t, how all OF the houses
look alike here7--narrow, OF white
plaster with sharp pointed roof.
This door is like all the other doors,
too. It has the same sort OF dents
made by butts of German guns de-
handing entrance; the same kind Of
unistitting wooden letter slot TO replace
the copper one the Germans took; the
same pattern of ugly iron door handle
substituting for the old one OF bronze.
