PHONE RATE PROBE BY
STATE SOUGHT.

Asserting that the people be-
lieve the fight against the tele-
phone rate increase and service
by the telephone company A is
one to be waged by the state,
Utilities Commissioner Maloney,
John New. Ford of Shreveport
Thursday took initial steps to-
ward nlisting material aid from
the Legislature.
Commissioner Maloney, City
Attorney Kittredge and Mayor
Ford Thursday conferred with
Governor Parker, in Baton
Rouge, on the subject of the Leg
islature appropriating sufficient
money to thoroughly investigate
the rates and service of the
Cumberland Telephone Com
pany. Commissioner Maloney
estimated the cost of employing
practical rate-meeting and utili-
ties experts would be between
SIC. 900 and $4,000.
Commissioner Maloney upon
his return to New Orleans
Thursday night said that Gov
|ernor Parker declared he was
interested in anything affecting
the people of the state. 1t is
the intention of Commissioner
Maloney, City Attorney Kit
tredge and Mayor Ford to pre-
sent facts and figures to Cover
nor Parker and, if the governor
is impressed, said Mr.. Maloney,
it is probable he will recommend
that the Legislature, at its spe-
|cial session in September, APP
propriate sufficient money TO
make a full investigation of the
telephone company's rates and
service.
While in Baton Rouge Thurs
day, City Attorney Kittredge
filed with the Public Service
Commission the peoples appli-
cation for extension of time for
the rehearing granted by the
commission. The original time
granted was four months,
which will expire the first part
of August. Shelby Taylor,
chairman of the commission,
told Commissioner Maloney he
willingly would grant an ex-
tension until such time as the
Legislature passed upon the
question of appropriating funds
to investigate the telephone
company.

PLEASE DRIVE REAS.
ONABLY.

What is reasonable driving?
There are a great many motor
lists who drive most unreason-
ably. carelessly and selfishly,
hurting through city, village or
open country with no regard
ever for any other persons or
vehicles save their Own-and
not even for themselves, as
many bad accident prove.
There are also great many
motorists-and perhaps they
mey even be in the majority
who do drive reasonably, follow
ing traffic regulations, showing
courtesy and consideration to-
wards other users of the high
way. and maintaining a speed
which is neither a menace nor
an offense to the community
through which they pass.
It is a question how far ar
bitary speed limits affect either
class of drivers. Certainly the
reckless motorist pays no atten-
ton at all to such warning
sign as greets the tourist in most
of the small towns in the United
States: Welcome. Speed Limit,
Is miles," Even the considerable
driver, if there is a clear road,
is very likely to continue on his
way at Is or 20 miles per hour.
A current magazine suggests
to the villages all through the
country. IF your town flaunts
a painted incentive to crime like
the above-pull it down." AS a
changs il suggests something
like this: welcome. Please
Drive Reasonably" In that
case. again. the needless driver
may proceed at his own pleasure
but he is likely to weaken and
to treat that town better than
most. The ordinarily cour-
teous driver will do better yet,
buying gas and oil even if he
dosen't need them. admiring the
town and probably advertising
it generously among his fric Ids
as a regular place both sensible
and acknowledgements En-
terprise.

I VIM. La Sale acted as foreman
/ Of the Jury. We are glad to
see the Jury recommend ccr-
tain changes in the Court
House that will afford the
Sheriff and Clerks office more
Office room. They suggested
utilizing a part of the old Jail
for the Assessors and Police
Jury room. This is a splendid
idea as far as ii goes, but from
our standpoint, we think it
would be far better to delnOljsh
the old building and utilize the
brick and other material In
making an extension to the
present Court building. The
amount expended in overhaul
ing the Jail would involve sew
cral thousand dollars anyway.
In that case why not demolish
it altogether and utilize the
brick and salvaged lumber with
an addition on the East Side
of the building proper. In that
way all of the Offices would be
under the same roof and be
much handler for everybody:
The truth of the matter is that
New Iberia needs a modern
Court building in keeping with
the importance of the Parish
and City. Other parishes have
better accommodation for its
officers and we have long since
Outgrown the present structure.
The time is ,propitious for a
complete new edifice. 1t must
be done sooner or later, why
not commence shaping things
now for a. real modern Court

AN UNUSUAL OPERATION
Walnut Kernel is Removed from
 Youth's Lung at Texarkana.


 Texarkana, Dec. 29.-A difficult and unusual operation, but one that was entirely successful, was performed at a local sanitarium when surgeons re- moved the kernal of an English wal nut from the right lung of George Ca ruth. three-year-old son of H. B. Caruth of Nashville, Ark. Previous to operating the surgeons deemed it necessary to perform an operation in tracheotomy in order to afford the patient easier breathing.
 The walnut kernel was swallowed a week ago. The parents started to come here at once, but while enroute the childs condition became such that they returned home in order that it might die there. It's condition i'm rroved, however, and they came here for the operation. The child will re. cover, the doctors say.
