TOO MANY OFFICIALS.

New Orleans, La, Epril 5, 1929.
Editor New Orleans States:
Dear Sir: We notice where our
good friend, Judge Gilbert Dupre
Of Opelousas, representative from
st. Landry, is hammering on the
extravaganza Of the present admin
istration in general aud the high
powered salaries paid to useless Of
ficials and boards in particular.
For the benefit of our friend from
st. Landry we would liae to mention
a few ways in which the peoples
money is being squaM.ered. During
the Pleasant administration the pub
lie docks Of our city were managed
by the superintendent at the very
conservative salary Of 5000 per
year. The Parker administration
has imported general manager at
100000 per month. There are also
assistant managers, an assistant su-
perintendent Of the docks. . super
intendent at the cotton warehouse
and still another at the grain elevator.
During the Pleasant administration
the board got along with one at
torney and now it has three. Fcrm-
erly one engineer was sufficient, by
now there surely must be a half
dozen.
We believe the legislature should
have a pruning committee to get rid
of the surplus officials and highly
paid political pap-suckers. We firm
ly believe that when the proper
time comes q careful consideration
Of present conditions win disclose
more extravagance than any previ-
GUS administration.

Dear Sir:
The reason why the farmer can't
pay his taxes, first, is: he pays 1870
of the taxes to the State and owns
about 20 20 Of the wealth. He is
compelled to pay taxes on full value
Of his farm when he owes a mortgage
from 20% to 800 Of its value, while
the man who holds the mortgage is
exempt from taxation; also the man
who holds the cash.
Our total assessed value in the
State is but a little over one-half
billion dollars, when six billions
would be under its actual worth.
The city Of New Orleans alone has
more wealth than the total assessed
value Of the State.
Our present administration aud
Legislature has carelessly appropri-
ated millions Of the peoples money
for purposes we could have easily
done without, anyhow until times
get better. One law alone takes near
ly six million dollars to build fine
agricultural college at Baton Rouge,
when there is not Q farmer in the
State who has made enough money
farming in the last two years to send
his boy to an agricultural school.
And nearly three-quarter million do!-
lars was expended in writing a new
Constitution, benefitting nobody but
its makers at the rate Of fifteen dol
lars per day. And now the Legisla-
ture is. getting ready to meet again
and play some more peanut politics,
like it has been doing for years.
There is no State in the Union that
has as rotten tax laws a. Louisiana.
II were member Of the Legislature
my efforts would be directed toward
securing passage Of bill that would
catch the tax dodgers and put ct
least four billion dollars more on the
tax lists.
We need q law to assess both per-
sonal and real property az full value
and compel the assessor to enter,
every mans premises, accompanied
by . capable deputy from each waid,
one familiar with property Of taat
ward, and secure first-hand value on
all holdings, both real aud personal.
: And after / had accomplished this
for the tax-ridden people, especially
the farmer, perhaps one-haif OF whom
will lose their property because Of
inability to pay taxes, ] would in
troduce another bill, one to adjourn
the Legislature for ten years. after
which ! would 60 home, to hear my
constituents say: "Wel done, thou
good and faithful servant" |" -

Opelousas never staged a more sue

met to hear their friend and towns
men, Judge Gilbert L. Dupre. In an
ticipation Of the crowd all Of the
benches in the police jury room and
many of those on the court house
square, had been placed in the court
room and yet standing room was at
premium. A distinctive feature Of
the gathering was that only one per-

ers from Opelousas, Leonville, Sum
set, Coulee Croche, Plaquemine Point,
Mallet, Eunice, Washington, Port
Barre. Senator Mouton and Represen-
tatives Schell and Lafleur were also
in attendance.
Judge Pavy opened the meeting as
the presiding officer. He spoke brief
ly but to the point. He reminded the
audience that in this same room, six
years ago, Judge Dupre had held a
meeting and advised the, people to
vote against the amendment creating
the Board of State Affairs. Judge Du-
pre- stated to you that if the board
was created it would overvalue your
property and in this way increase
your taxes-all Of which had oc-
Cured. We are overtaxed said Judge
Pavy and we are entitled to relief.
Continuing he said, "This is Judge
Dupre's meeting and you are here to
hear him." And they did. Judge Du-
pre- stepped forward with one Of his
stories that caught his hearers, and
they laughed and cheered and ap.
plauded him from start to finish. The
audience stood firm.
