Establishment Of a Caribbean
Employment Exchange will be
among the recommendations
made to the West Indian Con-
ference now in session in
Guadeloupe, by one of its
Committees.
This suggestion was made
and accepted at today's meet
ing Of the special committee
on migration of labor, labor
conditions, organization and
legislation, and will be recon-
mended to the conference
when the Committee reports.
tn proposal is that the Com
mission should explore, with
the Labor Officers of the va.
rious territories, the possibili-
ties of setting up a Caribbean.
Labor Exchange, which will.
provide Governments with in
formation as to opportunities.
for employment, working and
living conditions throughout.
the Caribbean area and in the.
nearby continental countries,
and thus meet the needs of.
Territorial Governments in
carrying out programmes Of
o~rientation and guidance for.
prospective migrants.
The Committee also propos-
es that the Conference should
recommend that the appropri-
ate officials Of all Caribbean
territories study the proposals
made by the International La
hour Office for the revision

ment Convention and Recon-
mendations and communicate

The Municipal Council had
its last meeting on Thursday,
unless something turns up
which requires an extra-ordi-
nary session.
Some of the lame ducks are
sad; I know of one who is not.
Speaking of the Council re-
minds me that only recently
the voters had an opportunity
to sample the stuff they can
expect from at least one of
their elected representatives.
Were they proud ovr the
first performance? Don't ask
me, honey; talk with someone
who was there. / only heard!
St. Croix may never again
be the capital of the Virgin Is
lands but a little more atten-
ton will be paid US in the
near future-believe it or not.
After battling opposition for
over 30 years, the dock for st.
Croix is drawing nearer reali-
cation. Credit must be given
to the Councilmen of those
days who carried forward the
fight for it.

after them but keep their
