The Natchitoches enterprise., 1921-05-19

Twenty-Five years ago last Octo'
Der, a social organization was eff.
fected that was soon noted all over
this section of the state as we'll as
the city, for its delightful enter
tainments, which ranked socially
with the first in the land. For
nineteen years, not one single in
cident occurred to mar its perfect.
ness and joy to the members while
an invitation 10 q Round Table
Club party, was always considered
a great compliment to and by
guests. At the beginning of the
war, after 10 consecutive years
running, this club disbanded, the
members going heart and soul in-
to serious war work with no
thought or desire for pleasure, and
for no particular reason, it did
not reorganize when the war ended.
But Friday afternoon, a year and
q half later, a call was sent out to
the old members to meet when
the full personnel responded, REQ: .
ganlzation was perfected and
again The Round Table Club will
be known in land, following its
old rules and orders to the delight |
of all concerned.

Every body, and that means

ended returned to his profession

magnificent voice enraptured cul-
tured ears as we'll as quasi music

the only one of the company that
was here before but the others
who are with him this year, are

WILL FIGHT FOR CARGOES
ON COMPETITIVE BASIS
q. S. Shipping Board Announces
Its Policy in Seeking to Trans
port Egyptian Cotton.

Announcing that the American mer-
chant marine was prepared to fight
for cargoes of Egyptian cotton on a
fair competitive basis, the Shipping
Board today has put into effect rates
between the United States and Alex
andria 10 shillings below those offered
by the British shipping conference.
which has hitherto controlled the
business.
Posting of the reduced rates fol-
lowed the breaking off of negotiations
which have been in progress for
months between representatives of
the board and of the British lines. In
formal statement explaining its ac-
ton. the board last night declared the
compromise offered by the British was
unacceptable because it awarded only
so per cent of the "Sailings" from
Alexandria, and made no reference to
further proportion of 1.-The cotton. and.
further because existing contracts be-
tween the British lines and an Alex
andria shipping organization gave the
former undisputed advantage over
their competitors.
The statement also commented upon
the awarding of these contracts to
the British as competitive" bid
ding. in which the American offer
was materially lower. New bids were
sought without the board being in
formed, it was declared. and when
the British lines lowered their charges
to the exact figure Of those submitted
by the Shipping Board, the contract
was awarded to them.

present bills in the main are un-
businesslike in their arrangement
often confusing to Congress and the
departments, and incomprehensible to
the public.
New Appropriation Plans.
The committee and the director Of
cord on a general outline for the
submission of the alternative esti-
mates and the consideration of the
appropriation bills which are to be
based upon those estimates. The
new form will place all of the ap-
propriations for given department
or bureau in the same bill. This
will enable any one to ascertain
readily the amount proposed to be
appropriated for any department or
any of its bureaus without consult
ing several different bills. 1t will
make possible business-like con-
sideration of the needs of each de-
partment or bureau by having them
all grouped together in a related
manner.
This arrangement necessarily will
wipe out practically all of the old
appropriation bills and establish in
their stead new bills to contain the
the various units of organization of
the government. The following list
shows the present bills and the pro-
posed bills:
Present t1s)-1. Agriculture; 2.
Army; 8, diplomatic and consular;
tions; 6. Indian: z. Legislative. ex-
ecutive and judicial: 8. Navy; 9.
pension; 10, post office; II, river and
harbor: ~, sundry civil; 13. deficiency.
Proposed DBL, Treasury Depart
ment: 2. District of Columbia: 8, War
ment; S. Post Office Department.; s,
Agricultural Department.; z. Interior
Department; 8, Independent Offices;
9, Navy Department; 10. Departments
of State and Justice; IL, Departments
of Commerce and Labor; IL, def
cheney.
Under the proposed arrangement
the agricultural, District Of Columbia,
post Office and Navy appropriation
bills will remain substantially in
their present form with the addition
to them of related items for those
departments which have heretofore
been carried in the Legislative, execu-
appropriation bills. The Army and
fortification bills and other military
and civil items, under the War De-
partment. heretofore carried in the
legislative, etc, sundry civil and river
and harbor bills, will be grouped in
proper military ahd civil sections in
a single bill for the War Department.
The diplomatic and consular bill
and State Department items from the
legislative, ETC., bill will be grouped
in bill for the Departments Of State
and Justice-the items for the De-
from those carried for that depart
ment in the legislative, ETC., and
