pected to Waive PreIimi-
nary Examination and

be arraigned before L. S. Commits
sioner Lawrence Bliss today to an
swer the charge of transporting ex-
plosives on passenger train. The
two men were arrested on the
night of Augu 81 when officials
believe they in errupted a plot to
blow up sections of the Santa Fe
railway.
Officials Of the sheriffs office,
prohibition agents, officers of the
federal department of justice and
special detectives of the Santa Fe
railway boarded an eastbound San
ia Fee train and arrested the pair
on the train at Hahn station, about
four miles north of Albuquerque.
A suit case said to contain three
bombs was seized at the time of the
arrest.
Indications yesterday pointed to
the preliminary hearing being
waived and the men bound over to
the federal grand jury which meets
in Santa Fe today.
The arrests are the result of in
vestigations which were made fol-
lowing the explosion of a bomb in
the Santa Fe shop yards here sew
eral weeks ago.

SMALL AUDIENCES
HEAR CONCERT.
Rain Keeps Many From
Splendid Performance.

The weather man alone prevented
the benefit concert, given TUESDAY
night by the City Band, from being
an overwhelming financial success.
A torrential downpour Of rain be-
tween seven and eight o'clock, great
" diminished the crowd, and only
faw dollars were cleared above the
expenses.
Those who braved the storm and
went to the Elks Theatre were well
repaid for their trouble. The musi-
clans were undaunted by the bad
weather. and dispensed highly en-
joyable program, every number be-
ing up to the high standard of per-
fection set by Prof. Arnandez for
that organization.
Many people got their dates mix
ed on the following evening, and
went up to the Live Oak School
| grounds expecting to hear an open
air concert. At least two hundred and
fifty people gathered, and all seem
ed disappointed when the band did
not show up.
This was a mistake on their part
for it was announced in The Iberia1
Of last week that the concert at Live
Oak would be given on the evening
of Wednesday, May 81, which is next
week.
After that, we understand, an eff
fort will be made to have concert
down town, on the Playground lot
on East Main.
This much is certain, whenever
THAT band plays the crowds will gath
er by hundreds. 1t isn't every towr
that can boast of such band, ant
we'd better appreciate it.

FORMER IBERIAN WRITES BIG
STORY OF LOUISIANA PEOPLE

What promises to be one of the
most popular additions to current
literature of this season is novel
entitled "The Inheritance of Jean
Trauve." from the pen of Mr.. Ne
vile Henshaw, a former New Ibe-
rian.
Mr.. Henshaw is the author of sew
eral works, and has also composed
the lyrics to number of popular
musical comedies of which "The Wis
iting Girl" with music by Jesse B
Hull is perhaps the best known.
"The Inheritance Of Jean Trauve''
will be a valuable contribution to
the literature of Louisiana's Gulf
Coast, as the plot is laid in this
immediate vicinity. Scenes along
Vermilion Bay among the fishers and
trappers, and on Avery Island and in
Berard's Woods should be of great
interest to our own people, and will
also be read with pleasure all over
the country, as the romance of life
in Old Louisiana always has strong
appeal to lovers Of fiction
In recent issue of Literary Di-
gest Mr.. Henshaw's novel is com.
mended very highly, and with such
endorsement will no doubt meet with
flattering success, both from a liter
ary and financial view point.
The author is a brother of Mr..
Charley Henshaw, of Avery Island
and has many personal friends in
this parish.
The book is available at both the
Community Library and at the Ii
brary conducted at Taylor's DRUG
Store.

UP TO YOU AND CONGRESS

1t tho present time it would be
missioner to speak of the nauohal
government having a personnel sys-
tenn ut all. The reform accomplished
bv the establishment of the civil SerV-
ice commission and the merit system
haS touched but one phase Of the per
sopuel problem. and that but partially
entrance into the government serv-
icr. Practically nothing has been done
in the way of erecting the government
services into careers that will attract
ana retain efficient men. Bad as con
ditionS were in this respect before the
war. they have become many tunes
worse during and since that event.
The correction Of these evils pre-
scnts a problem of great compleXity
II cannot be achieved by half
hearted or halfway tinkering with the
present system. Nothing but a thor
ough oNerhauling Of the whole person
mel system and the establishment OF
n new system covering all phases or

approved principles Of personnel ad-
ministration will meet the needs or
the situation. Fortunately begin
ming has been made III this direction.
1t at least furnishes starting point
for action looking to the giving to the
government of the personnel system
that it must have If government work
is to be even measurably well done.
The situation now is that there Is
an insistent demand on the part or
the public that the whole adminlStra-
ton of the national government be put
upon a more efficient basis, and that
the present waste of public funds, re-
sulting from present defective organ
ization and methods, shall cease; that
congress is alive to this demand and
has made a start toward meeting 1t ;
that the fundamental defects in the
existing system are well known; and
that the direction efforts looking TO
reform should take are clearly estab-
ushed. The responsibility is thus
squarely up TO congress.
If the problem that confronts con
gress in securing this laudable end is
analyzed it will be found that the
fundamental reforms are: The re
