ZIONIST LEADERS
VOTED CONFIDENCE
Socialist Wing Of Congress
Opposes Palestine Move
ment.

By the Associated Press.
CARLSBAD. September 6.-The Zion
ist congress voted confidence In the
stewardship of its executive commit
tee. The vote was 34S to So. The dis
senters declared that while they had
confidence IN the leaders, the socialist
wing had explained that they were
unable to give unqualified support to
the Palestine movement because they
felt that the vital questions Of immi-
grafton and colonization had not been
adequately expressed and developed.
Resisted, by Socialists.
The program might have been voted
Monday night, but the socialists re-
sisted and endeavored to present an
amendment. The situation became SO
tense that an adjournment was taken.
The general committee meanwhile
endeavored to reconcile the factions
in the hope of obtaining unanimous
vote.
The only other business carried out
today was the reading OF Delegate
Ruppin's economic report on Palestine.
The congress then resolved 1.sel1
into committees.
Brnndeis to BE Honored.
The correspondent of the Jewish
Press Association says that among the
resolutions to be introduced and prob
ably adopted by the congress, ex-
pressing appreciation of the help rem
dered the Zionist cause by various
leaders, will be one of thanks to JUS
tice Louis D. Brandeis for the great
service he has rendered Jewry in con-
nection with the Balfour declaration
of Palestine as the homeland of the
Jews. 1t was through the interest Of
Justice Brandeis that President Will
son, in 1917, addressing the British
government. expressed his sympathy
with the efforts Of the Jews to regain
Zion. This fact, according to the
Zionist executive report. decided the
British cabinet to make public the
Balfour declaration.
That a Jewish legion in Palestine
is essential for its rebuilding was the
opinion expressed at the congress by
Vladimir Jabctinskv. founder of the
Jewish Legion, which served during
the latter part of the world war with
the British forces in Palestine, Egypt
and Mesopotamia.

JAHNCKE SHIP YARDS
TEAM WIN 8 TO S

The unexpected hitting ability of
the Jahncke Ship Yards team won
for them with a to 5 score Sunday
afternoon against the Blackbirds.
Time after time the visiting sluggers
would come to the plate and slam the
ball for clean singles against the
fence. and only through the efforts
of Stevenson, Boyd and Smith were
they prevented from making a larger
score.
Poole seemed unable p stem the
tide and his teammates We're forced
to give him almost perfect support.
Try as they did, they were not cap
able of intercepting the flies that hit
the fence. nor the Texas leaguers that
were placed at will.
Bogalusa's greatest need, a good
second string battery, was plainly
evinced. Poole and Gatzman had
worked too hard the first part of the
game and the hot weather began to
tell before the locals were able to
make a score large enough to give
thin the contest.

Business Women
Install Officers Tuesday

Quite an interesting program was
held BY the Business and Professional
Women on Tuesday night. This
meeting being the first business
meeting since the officers were
elected for the ensuing year, most of
the time was taken up in the installa-
ton Of officers, the new officers be-
ing Mrs. z. J. Lee, president; Ruby
Moak, vice-president; Grace Gayer,
secretary; Gertrude Dillon, treas
urer; Gertrude Lassangue, Cor
ponding secretary, and Nadia Coving-
ton, historian.
An interesting report of the con-
vention held at Cleveland was given
by Miss Ruby Moak. She told the
girls about the many ideas that the
delegates received while in the con-
vention, and especially did she en-
phasze the need of the study of par
liamentary law in this club. The
members took quite an interest and
the club will take up this study in
the near future.

GOOD PROGRESS MADE
ON THE NEW BRIDGE

During the past thirty days great
progress has been made on the new
bridge which is to be built across
Pearl River, connecting Washington
Parish and Pearl River County, Miss,
and which viii result in hundreds o.
tourists visiting this section.
Before the work could start on the
steel work, it was necessary to build
the frame part Of the bridge on this
side, which is now nearing compile
ton. This gives US a new bridge lead
ing onto the drawbridge and its built
of heavy timber and so high that
there will never be any danger of
high water reaching it. Instead of the
big curve on the bridge, it will go
and the crossing will be sew
eral feet north of where the ferry
now crosses. In the meantime the old
bridge and the ferry is in operation.
It is expected that work on the
steel bridge will be we'll under way
in a few weeks and without any
serious delay in materials it is ex-
pected that the bridge will be ready
for service shortly after the first of
the year.

Mrs. Headley Adopts
Smallest Living Twins

Bogalusa lays claim to two Of the
smallest living twins in the country,
weighing IL and II ounces when
born, two weeks ago, to Mrs. and Mrs.
Will Adams, residing ON the banks
of Pearl River. Both are boys and
they are now making their home at
the Colonial Hotel, Mrs. H. M. Head
ley, wife of the manager, having
adopted them ten days ago. The little
fellows are growing and it is believed
that they will live. Billie, who
weighed II ounces at his birth, now
weighs is ounces, while Jack, who
weighed II ounces at birth, has only
gained one ounce. Mrs. Headley
states that the little fellows show
wonderful vitality and when the
feeding hour arrives that they start
making trouble in the event the bot
tie is not ready. The mother has six
living children besides the twins and
her condition was such that she could
not give them proper attention, and
realizing that unless they were given
unusual care they could not live, she
permitted Mrs. Headley Ito adopt
them. At the Colonial Hotel they are
comfortably located and have at
tracted considerable attention.

Mayor Sullivan
Passes Milestone
miLife's Journey
Mrs. Firth, Daughter of the
Mayor, Plans Elaborate
Dinner to Commemorate
the Occasion.

Bogalusa has more than a state
wide reputation, when it comes to
banquets, dinners and parties, and the
one given in honor of the birthday
of Mayor w. II. Sullivan at his home
Monday evening, to department heads
and their ladies has gone down as one
of the most enjoyable in the history
of the city.
The success of the event was due
to the clever efforts of Mrs. Betty
Sullivan Firth who planned the din
ner. Mayor Sullivan was out Of the
city, arriving home on the evening
train to find his home taken by
friends and every lady rushed to the
gate to meet him, where he received
a most hearty welcome.
It is rumored he exclaimed, "This
is the happiest moment of my life"
The discussion of his age continued
for only short time, all agreeing
that he was not over q.
The dinner was served on the lawn
and place cards were miniature pic
tures'0f Mr.. Sullivan at work. Each
of the guests composed a limerick
about ''Willie" and soon they all saw
him at play. Several of the Iimericks
were very clever and caused much
merriment. The table decorations
were beautiful, and the dinner, while
a home affair, was one Of the most
elaborate ever served in Bogalusa. A
flashlight picture was made of the
party, which appears on this page of
the Enterprise.
Following the dinner, the evening
was enjoyed with various pastimes
and the evening will long be remem-
bered by all those who attended who
were as. follows: Mr.. and Mrs. Dam
iel Morgan, Mr.. and Mrs. w. s.

Mrs. R. Blanchard
Buys the Garden


Mrs. r. Blanchard, who has con-
Quoted the Magic City Theatre in
Bogalusa from almost the time the
city was founded, has purchased the
Garden Theatre and has already
assumed control, and effective to-
night the old Magic City Theatre will
be closed and only one picture show
viii be operated.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. M. Ewert and
family will leave in a few days for
Michigan, where they will make their
future home. They came here about
one year ago and made large circle
of friends. They took over the old
White City Theatre and spent several
thousand dollars in improving it
until it is one Of the best equipped
movie theatres in a city this size to
be found in the South.

Bush Farmers
Oragnize Tuesday

The farmers of Bush and the sur
rounding country are falling right
in line with the new farmer organiza-
tons of the Bogalusa Chamber of
Commerce. Tuesday night DR.. J. H.
Slaughter, j. P. Starns and Felix
Bachemin motored to Bush and as
sic I'd in the organization Of farm
ers' association at that place.
About a hundred people were
present and thirty-five farmers were
enrolled in that organization.
F. w. Copper was unanimously
elected president; w. H. Kahn, vice
president; J. E. Mobiles, secretary,
and A. D. Jerrold, treasurer.
Short talks were made by Chair
man Starns, DR.. Slaughter and Mr..
Mr.. Dutsch, a prominent
farmer of Walheim, gave an inter
esting talk on truck farming, stating
that the farmers of his section ex-
pected to ship several carloads OF
vegetables from Bush.
Cabbage was the main topic OF
at the meeting and it is
believed that this crop. will be tried
out first. Thirty acres have already
been pledged for this purpose and as
only forty acres are necessary to
assure carload shipments, the balance
will doubtless be pledged this week.

Great Farmers
Meeting Was Held

''The future of Bogalusa viii be in
farming and paper-making, said
Mayor Sullivan, in an address before
the Farmers Division Of the Boga-
lusa Chamber OF. Commerce Saturday,
and it will be only through the
efforts of the farmers and truck
growers of Washington Parish that
we can expect Bogaiusa to live after
the sawmill has cut out all of the tim
Der in this section. We have already
started our arrangements to take
care of the paper-making industry,
and under the leadership of j. H.
Johnson, demonstration is being car
ried on on a large scale, but it is up
to you people to see that the land
that can be used for agricultural pur-
poses is put to work to produce"
Two hundred farmers came to Bo-
galusa Saturday morning at the invi-
tation of J. P. Starns, Chairman of
the Farmers ~ IN Of the UIail-
Der of CONNIE, I'd were the guests
of the AssociaviU.. and r. E. Roster

V. B. Rabb, farm agent for Wash

dress, following Mayor Sullivan, and
he gave many interesting examples
of the value of diversified farming
and of the profits to be made if the
farmers organized.
Felix Bachemin, Agricultural
Agent Of the New Orleans Great
Northern Railroad, also addressed the
meeting and offered his cooperation
to see that the best Of transportation
facilities were provided by his com
pany.
Chairman Starns made his address
short, sweet and to the point. we
are not asking the farmers to put out

will benefit them" said Mr.. Starns.
s'The Chamber of Commerce intends
to help the farmer and not have the
farmer help them. We have set our
mind on making Washington Parish
as great an agricultural section as
there is anywhere in the South and
we are going to pull together, TO MAKE
it that. It is my belief that TINS meet

Chairman Starns believes that an ad-

Following the addresses, it was de-
cided that the best plan was to orga-
nize the farmers of the vicinity for
cooperating planting, cooperative
shipping and cooperative marketing
of the products. 1t was shown that
in this way the market for the crops
could be secured while they were

farmers will announce the acreage of
the various crops they will plant.
Each community will also form its
own organization and elect its Off
GERS, who. in turn, will report to the
Chamber of Commerce here on next
Monday. The community organiZa-
tions will be given free membership
in the Chamber of Commerce, who
will render valuable aid in various
ways.
Following the meeting at the city
hall, a demoDstration was given by
the Roster Motor Company of the
Fordson tractor, and there was not
farmer or business man present who
was not amazed at the great work
this tractor could do. Demonstrations
in disc blowing, disc narrowing and
cult packer, as we'll as various other
improved implements were cleverly
shown, and the farmers realized that
with a Fordson they could do their
work in one-haf or one-third the
time as the old way of farming.
Following the demonstration,
splendid luncheon was served by the
Chamber of Commerce and the Res
ter Motor Company. There was an
of food and it was
enjoyed.
The result of the meeting was most
satisfactory to the farmers, as well
as the Chamber Of Commerce, for
all learned that by helping the
farmer the community would likewise
benefit.
