laNGRESSMAN MARTIN GIVES A SUMMARY OF
LIVE STOCK FARM SITUATION.
,.uoustration Farm Will Be Left In Iberia Parish
Subject To Future Action.

~.h;roton, D. c., March Is, 1922.
~ iberia Chamber Of Commerce,
New Iberia, Louisiana.
| ry Dear sirs:-
peferring to the New Iberia Dem
..rstion Farm, concerning which
~ have had some telegraphic cor
,oondence, / beg to confirm my
of the 14th to the effect that
~ appropriation had been provi-
.;0nally retained. This was accom-
,lished in the House only after con-
iderable effort.
Tho situation in regard to this
-.tter is about as follows:
Last year when this item came up
4. consideration on the floor of the
uouse. there was motion made to
,.r;te it out, and with the assistance
4 the subcommittee on appropria-
t;ons who gave me their united sup
,ort we were only able to retain
ths item by majority Of six votes.
This year the subcommittee on
appropriations held hearings in re-
,ard to the work being done on this
farm. and they came to the conclu-
,ion that the Government was not
retting value received and that the
farm was not properly located. The
committee thereupon came to the de-
eision to strike out the item entirely.
Hearing of this action, l called up
on the members Of the sub-commit-
tee and very strongly protested
against the proposed action, but they
we're unanimously of the opinion
that the work done on the farm was
not commensurate with the outlay
made by the Government.
After considerable discussion, [
was able to persuade them to con-
tinue the appropriations, but they
insisted that if the appropriation
was continued that there should be
1 provisio added to the bill giving
the Secretary of Agriculture author
ity to dispose Of the Government
property on the farm, if in his op-
iniOn, it is for the best interest Of
the Government.
was frankly told by the Commit
tee that if l would not accept this
proviso, that they would strike out
the provision altogether. After con-
sulting with Senator Broussard, we
concluded that it would be best to
accept the proposition Of the Com
nittee and let the item go through

VEAzEY ICE CREAM
FACTORY COMPLETE.
Will Start Operations By
April First.

All you ice cream fans-gct on %
this one. We took trip uptown
Thursday, and gave Mr. +. f. Yea
zeys new ice cream factory the
"once over And take it from me
it's som f plant.
The most interesting thing of all
is the new tangled bine freezer,
which turns out 10 gallons, each s
minutes, all electrically driven. Au-
tomato, and the cream never being
touched by hand from start to
finish.
Everything is strictly sanitary
and would even delight the critical
eye of DR.. Bowling of the State
Board of Health
Next Wednesday, so Mr.. Neazey
says, he will begin receiving cream
from any of our dairymen who wish
to dispose of their product in bulk,
and on April lst he will be ready
to supply ice cream in any quantity
from | quart up, in ten or more fla
vors and varties.
All during the summer, each week
end, Mr.. Veazey will have Sunday
Special, something different each
week, comprising delicacies most
lberians have never even heard of,
and on special order he will make
anything known to the cream max
er's art. For parties and receptions,
he will furnish Individual portions
bearing most any design or initial
frozen in each. In fact, New iberia
now has "big town" ice cream
factory, and should patronize it, and
make its owner prosper.
Mr.. Veazey's beautiful new resid-
ence will be ready for occupancy
soon after April 1st, and represents
a decided improvement to the Up
Town Section of our city.
The weekly Iberian., 1922-03-25

IN this form, with the hope of hav-
ing it struck out in the Senate
through the influence of our two
Senators, and especially Senator
Ransdell, who is a member of the
Agricultural Committee Of that body
Failing in it, it is then our pur-
pose to take up the matter with the
Secretary of Agriculture in person,
and to show him the important work
that this farm is doing for the cattle
raisers Of that section so that he
will not exercise the authority given
him to dispose Of this farm.
In the event of a successful out
come Of this effort, it is then our
purpose to ask for hearings before
the House Subcommittee on ap-
preparations next year, and endeavor
to show them that it would be un-
wise to discontinue the activities and
good work now being done on this
farm.
1t will be noted, therefore, that
when this item came up for consid-
Grafton on the floor Of the House,
that l did not move to strike out the
provisio, because had l done so, the
Committee would Immediately have
moved to strike out the item, and
this would result in the loss Of the
appropriation entirely.
l therefore contented myself with
accepting the proviso attached to the
appropriation by the Committee and
endeavored to show the work now
being accomplished on this farm, and
that mistake would be made if
this work was discontinued.
/ am attaching the item carried in
the appropriation bill, with the pro-
viso attached, together with remarks
made by me at the time the matter
came up for consideration, which
fully explains the position l was
forced to take.
In view of the fact that consider
able publicity has been given the ef-
forts to discontinue this farm, both
in the State and local press, | will
be glad if you will let the people
interested know Of the position which
found myself forced to take, and
of my efforts to maintain the acti-
vities and good work of this farm.
Thanking you for your coopera-
ton in this matter, beg to remain,
Yours very truly,
w. p. MARTIN.

TWO MORE THIEVES
NABBED BY SHERIFF.
Stealer of 500 Chickens l S
jailed.

The Sheriff's office made two i'm
portant hauls last Saturday, both on
charges of larceny.
For several months residents at
the upper end of town, and in the
country, all along the road as far as
Cade, have been missing large num-
bers of their chickens. 1t was only
recently, however, that a report was
made to Sheriff Landry, and he got
on the job right away.
Last Saturday, after the Sheriff
and Deputy Colgin had satisfied
themselves as to who the thief was,
and that he was expecting to go to
Cade that noon, Deputy Colgin drove
TO Cade to capture him. Sheriff Lam
dry was watching this end of the
lire, and was at the depot when No.
came in. He saw his man go over
to board the train, and arrested him,
at once.
The prisoner, a negro named Liv
ingston Young, has confessed, and
it is estimated that he has stolen
and sold at least five or six hundred
chickens during the past few months.
A few of his latest haul were found
at his home at Cade and identified
by their rightful owners.
Young will be held in the Parish
Jail awaiting his trial, which will
come up in July.
Another Thief Captured.
While Deputy Colgin was sher-
locking around on another mission,
he ran across a quantity of railroad
crossties on the property occupied by
one Joe Wesley, colored man.
This looked suspicious to George
and he looked up an S. P. official,
who easily identified the ties as
property Of that Company.
Wesley was escorted to the City
Court, where "Hizzoner" Judge Pow
er administered justice to the tune
of -four months in the Parish Jail"
This capture also occurred last Sat
urday, which all goes to prove that,
while the crooked path may look to
De easy and strewn with roses-there
is thorn on every rose.
