Puerto Rican Pilgrims
Are Seasonal Visitors

is their traditional tongue. On the
other hand health clinic heads say
that Puerto Ricans are quick to
take advantage of such service
and the New York City depart
ment of welfare reports that a
relatively small number of relief
applicants r Puerto Ricans.
Because of the influx, Mayor
William O'Dwyer has established
a committee on Puerto Ricans
made up of heads of various city
public departments. The welfare
council of New York established
another committee.
Meanwhile teachers, social
workers and ministers in the
Puerto Rican neighborhoods do
what they can to help the Puerto
Ricans adapt themselves. DR..
Joseph Loretan, principal of the
Patrick denry junior high school
(where 300 Of the LOO pupils are
Puerto Ricans), DR.. Leonard Co.
vello. principal of the Benjamin
Franklin high school, and direc-
tors of other schools have launch
ed special English classes and &C.
tivities.
The Rev. Edicer Rodriguez of
the First Spanish Evangelical
church, Clyde Murray of the union
settlement and others have estab-
lished English classes for adults,
clubs for boys and girls and in
str,lction fer mothers on nutrition.
baby care, health and prevention
of juvenile delinquency.
Some of those who work with
the Puerto Ricans comment on
the influx thus:
"This is a first class problem;
but it's not their fault. They are
the victims; not the cause. Any
group of people coming in num-
bers like the Puerto Ricans could
create a problem. Their only solu-
ton for the moment is to drain
the population off the island. We
should not put up bars, but should
make it possible for them to settle
here. And we should do all we
can to help Puerto Rico solve her
home problem"
Those who work with Puerto
Ricans join in saying that both
adults and children are polite,
considerate and, though often vol
atile in temperament, are no
harder to handle than any other
group.
But several workers in welfare
fields say privately that officials
are so anxious not to be accused
Of discrimination that either they
will not face facts or call the stu
alton honestly, thereby hampering
any constructive permanent solu-
ton.
what is the solution of the diff
ficElties created by the Puerto
Rican influx?
Few concrete suggestions have
yet materialized. But Adrian
Burke, chairman Of the welfare
councils committee on Puerto
Ricans, makes these recommen-
dations watch reflect the view Of
the committee:
l. Dissemination of information
in Puerto Rico giving an accurate
picture of conditions in New York.
2. Extension of Federal security
to give help to destitute families
on the island and t4us mitigate
the poverty which leads to exces-
sive emigration.
3. Federal development Of a
program of Puerto Rican migra-
ton a n d resettlement throughout
the United States which would be
related to Puerto Ricans' training
and skills.
4. Expansion and adaptation OF
educational, recreational, health
and welfare programs OF New
York City to facilitate assimila-
ton of the newcomers.

Burt Lancaster
To Retirement
n
By SheiIoh Grohom

Gene Kelly's movie is "Take MI
Out to the Ball Came" with Frank
Sinatra. This is an original story
authored by Gene. He and frankie
play a couple of ball players. And
there will be no dancing in it
which is fortunate in view of Gene s
fractured ankle.
Burt Lancaster confirms the re-
port that he will retire as a movie
star when he finishes his present
commitments-and for a most un-
usual reason. Burt, on the set of
"All My Sons," tells me that movie
acting bores me. L hate to sit
around on a set all day and I'd
rather give orders and do creative
work, like writing, producing or
directing
Greer Carson really is changing

respectively. The idea is for Greer
to make several movie comedies as

She expresses her thoughts with her

looks like my idea of an atomic

wires.
Ginger Rogers should be a very

Victor Mature still is battling
