dertaking. A good well-drained
dirt highway is to our mind, even
better than gravel, especially
with such poor drainage as We
observe in most every Ward of
this Parish. With a perfect sys-
tenn Of drainage, &. dirt highway
can be easily maintained. Then
WHY not undertake to- couple
drainage with road building be-
fore proceeding further? We
have repeatedly stated that from
a quarter of a million to probably
half million dollars is lost an
nually by our agriculturists on
account Of lack Of proper drain
age. Then why put sprinkle
Of six inches Of gravel on high
ways when we know that within
a few months they disappear.
Iberia Parish is ideally situated
to be drained since it is only a
dozen miles from the sea and al;
Of the property holders would
take readily to scheme to drain
the entire Parish when they know
that it would insure them safe
and profitable crops and at the
same time provide an opportunity
to get shells for road building at
a nominal cost. Last year thou
sands upon thousands of acres Of
corn was lost due to bad drain
age, and in all likelihood hun
dreds of discontented farmers
were made even more discon-
tented. o
We cannot lay too much stress
on this subjecg-drainage and
good roads-as we are essentially
On agricultural Parish. The his
tory of the situation is such that
it ought to be lesson, and if we
are going to put forth efforts
looking to the Improvement of
drainage and roads, lets take ad-
vantage Of the lessons taught and |
ot continue to make these mis-
takes in the future.

been organized in numerous

POLAND NOW RIVALS
PLIGHT OF BELGIUM
Children Chief Sufferers in Land
Stripped of Necessities,
Says Relief Worker.

Poland Is In the destitute state for
want Of food and clothing among the
poor that Belgium would have been
during the war, had there been no COM
mission for relief in that country, ac-
cording to DR.. Vernon Kellogg, Ameri.
can Relief Administration official, who
recently returned. from Warsaw. =
DR.. Kellogg was 4 member of Mr..
Hoover's star In Belgium, and at the
conclusion Of hostilties, entered Po-
land as the Hoover emissary in charge
OF food relief. He first entered Poland
In 1915, few months after the Ger
man occupation. His report Of starva.
tion, disease and suffering that exist
ed at that time Is one Of the most
narrowing documents In the records
OF American relief work overseas.
DR.. Kellogg made the following
statement regarding the work after the
armistice:
with Warsaw az our headquarters.
We began operations in Poland in jan
uary, 1919. and within few weeks
there was established a steady impor-
tation Of food into that country. Tons
and tons Of 1t came from overseas
through the Port Of Danzig.
1T was impossible to do all that
the administration wanted to do. be-
cause the need. Of Poland was too great,
but 1t was agreed that enough food
should be sent to Poland to care for
the four million people until the great
agricultural districts could again pro-
vide for them.
"But In addition to these four mil.
lion people who 20 pressingly needed
relief, there was another call for relief
from 4 source that could not be re-
sisted: the children Of the land. Many
OF these were orphans, hungry, ema-
ciated, destitute and diseased. So the
American Relief Administration added
to IFS work by instftuting system Of
feeding these children. In q few
months million and q quarter Polish
children were getting q free meal ev-
cry day Of special food prepared to
the effects Of their previous
undernourishment"
To finsh the job eight great organ-
izations have united under the name
Of the European Relief Council to raise
the funds necessary to care for the
food needs and the medical needs Of |
the 100000 children Of Eastern and |
Central Europe. These organizations |

ROAD BUILDING AND DRAIN
AGE A NECESSITY

Our article in the last number
of The Enterprise with reference
to the use Of clam shells for the
building Of highways in this Par.
ish has brought forth much fav.
Orable comment amongst Oul
readers, which is a source of muc b
satisfaction to us. For several
years, We have with other inter.
ested citizens, endeavored to build
up sentiment in favor of shells,
rather than waste money on high
priced gravel for road building,
citing numerous parishes where
shells were used as giving perfect
satisfaction. Situated like IBERIA
is, within twelve or fifteen miles
from the coast. there is no dou0t
the logical thing to do is to either
complete the commercial canal to
the sea. so that barges can be used
to transport shells or else erect
a dirt road along side Of our
present canal to the point where
deep water is accessible to permit
deep water craft and in that way
the shells could be hauled in for
a mere pittance as against the
charges of the railroads for the
transportation of gravel
The position taken by Senator
elect Broussard on this important
question when he expressed HIM
self through the New Orleans
press we trust will be instru-
mental in our Parish Fathers
either building highways with
brick. cement or some other ma
terial in the future, Or else make
provision of some kind wherein
we can get clam shells so as to be
pble to build highways in every
nook and corner Of the Parish.
There is no need to ask the tax
payers to impose taxes upon them
selves for expensive gravel when
we all know the life of a gravel
highway is from four to five years
at it's best. 1T has long since
proven waste Of money and we
sincerely hope that never again
will the property holders sanction
rr give approval to any such un-
New Iberia enterprise and independent observer., 1921-01-29

We understand at the next
meeting Of the Police Jury the
matter of using clam SHELLS is to
be discussed again and possibly
to conclude intelligently, just
what to do they may in body
visit these reefs. Should they de
eide to do so, we suggest that the
board Of directors Of the Cham
Der of Commerce and our three
City Commissioners join them on
this trip. The three bodies CO.
we are satisfied viii
reach conclusions that confirm all
We have claimed in our columns
for many years.

LAUGHTER OF CHILD
