new problem For many years prior 10
the purchase of these islands by the Uni
ted States, means were sought to remedy
this condition without avail and from the
moment Of purchase this matter has re-
ceived most serious consideration. So
far. however, nothing concrete has been
developed. All authorities are apparent
ly agreed that the formation Of the IS
lands with regard 10 the subsurface rock
strata eliminates artesian we'll drilling
as a means of securing a permanent and
adequate water supply and the concen-
sds oI opinion is that the only practical
bic solution is the building Of large sheds
for the collection Of rain and the storing
OF rain water in large cisterns. The
water SO stored to be used after the
individual private supply is exhaust
ed. A solution Of this problem would,
10 our opinion. 40 more toward th1
uplift Of the population generally
than any one other single factor
and it is earnestly recommended that
the Government renew its efforts in
this respect.
81 That way and means be devised
to impound water for agriculture pur-
poses.
AS previously stated. the Virgin Is
lands suffer periodically from drought.
The island of at. CrOiX, which depends
merely upon its sugar crop, becomes the
greatest sufferer when, by reason of
drought, the crop proves a failure. Foe
the past three years a period of intense
drought has caused such a lessening in
the output of sugar as 10 reduce the is.
land almost to q state Of restitution. If,
therefore, it were possible to store up
water during the rainy season, which
might be utilized during periods of
drought, the sugar crop which would
otherwise perish, could be S. wed.
"a That the Public school system
be extended to include adequate courses
in Manual Training.
The instruction of the youth in manual
training has become so general in the
Continental Uri-ed States that its value
needs no explanation. The institution of
manual training courses IN the public
schools Of the Virgin Islands would great
II tend towards the eventual establish
ment of manufacturing industries as a
profitable source of income to the people
and of revenue to the Government. Ma
h0gany grows on the islands and much
more in the neighbonring islands. Cab.
met making has always been a minor in
dustry and il might we'll be expanded.
With the economic growth Of the islands.
artisans of all kinds will be in great de-
mapd. In conjunction with the Manual
Training program Of the public schools,

almost solely upon the activities OF the
beautiful harbor for their livelihood. De
pending entirely upon the commerce ot
the harbor is too uncertain, and ways
and means of getting the inhabitants, at
least partially, to a dependence on the
soil should be s%eriousl, considered.
Commerce: In addition to the activi~
ties of the Hafbor of St. Thomas, which
are considerable, there should be posi-
bilities in both islands of manufacturing
eXportable articles as eVinced by the fact
that there are at present small quantities
of articles manufactured from mahogany.
This industry appears fuIIy cat able OF
expansion. There must exist other SINH
lar possibilities of development.
Labor Labor problems are real and
vi al. On the island Of St. Croix The
question of labor for the cultivation and
IarVes'ing of the sugar crop Is always a
matter of serious concern, mainly for the
reason that, when it becomes evident that
a given crop will yield below the normal
output, the tendency is for labor to mi
CRATE. and if in the succeeding year the
crop is normal or above, there would APP
parently result a shortage Of labor.
Again, on the island Of st. Thomas,
when the commerce falls off to any
considerable extent, the tendency IS
towards emigration and when bust
ness picks up. a shortage Of labor
is likely to occur. These three fund
amentaIs of agriculture, commerce ano
labour might very materially be as
sisted by the establishment Of a depart
mpnt for dealing with them and the es-
adjustment Of such a department is ac-
cordingly earnestly recommended.
l2) The establishment of permanent
water supply systems for the three
towns Of St. Thomas, Christiansted
and Frederiksted.
There is apparently no natural suhter-
raneaa water, artisan or otherwise q, in the
Virgin Islands. Whar subsurface water
there is comes from the rainfall and is
collected in shallow wells a9d springs.
These wells and springs go dry in periods
of drought which are frequent. Hence
the population of the Virgin Islands has
for generations, been compelled to de-
pend almost entirely OF rain water which
is collected from the roofs Of houses and
stored in cisterns. The poorer classes
are unable to store up sufficient water 10
last them over a dry spell and they ac-
cordirgly suffer intensely when their sup
DIV runs out. Even the people who pos
sess much more adequate facilities fer
preserving water frequently exhaust
their supply and in times Of acute drought
all classes suffer. Not alone IS this lin

RECOMMENDATIONS

20 That there be established I'M
der the Civil Government of the Vir-
gin Islands "A Department of Agricul
ture, Commerce and Labor, to be head
ed by a Director, whose duty it shall
be to investigate and advise Of the
fundamental economic problems on the
entire Virgin Islands.
Agriculture The island of St. Croix,
TIE largest of the group. has always
been agricul ulal, the main in -ustry
being the growing of sugar cane.
This industry is a highly technical one
and therefore requires the most expert
advice obtainabIe regarding the most
modern methods of cultivatiag, process
ing and marketing. 1t is generally con
ceded that St. CroiX might easily grow
many other marketable agricultural
products if it were known definitely
what could be grown and where they

HELP STABILIZE SILVER.

Producers of silver in United
States have kept up production
of the white metal in the past
two years despite the high cost
of mining and the low cost of
the metal.
While depicting ore bodies,
considered as capital invested,
the returns have been nninyit
ing.
Unless this important industry
is given an impetus, not alone
will producers suffer, but much
labor will have to seek other
employment.
Producers see a new hope for
the industry through a measure
just introduced ia the senate by
Senator Pittman of Nevada
which would authorize the direc
tor of the Mint to complete pur.
chases of silver under the Pitt
man Act of 1918.
By this measure 1850, 73O
ounces of silver would be pur-
chased from United States pro
ducers at one dollar an ounce.
