Jobs for Handicapped

Members Of the Junior Board Of
Commerce yesterday saw good
reason why employers should hire
physically handicapped persons.
At their luncheon in the Burling-
ton Hotel was Miss Mary Scherer,
26, Of 1924 p street NV, q stenog-
rapher ut the International Busi-
ness Machine Corp. here.
Company ofiicials said their only
complaint is that they find it
hard to furnish the blond stenog-
rapher enough work. Miss Scherer
has been totally blind for 20 years.
She started work here In April,
and soon had memorized the various
onice forms she has to MI out. BY
sense Of touch, she puts the forms
in her typewriter and rattles OF the
typing as fast rs any secretary in
the ofice, of1icials said.
Miss Scherer, who attended the
Florida School for the Blind at st.
Augustine, lives with her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. P. 3. scherer.
The Junior board has tndorsed
the National Employ the Physically
Handicapped Week, October 3
through 8, and members now are
getting pledges from various Wash
ington firms to employ at least one
qualified handicapped person within
year.
A related project Of the Junior
Board Of Commerce, the sponsor
ship and job placement program for
inmates At the National Training
School for Boys, was discussed ut
the luncheon by Joseph E. Dayton,
Washington director of the Bureau
of Rehabilitation, = private agency
to help persons at penal institutions.
He praised the program Of the
Junior board.

I NJ TO BLOW OUR OWN HORN
AS | passes it seems that ST. Croix is settling itself
as the southern tip and tail end of the Virgin Islands. On the
surface it seems almost trite to introduce such. a topic for
discussion, but on closer look, we. are suffering quietly, but
definitely from it. The time has come when ST Croix must
assert and exert Itself, or it will sink even lower.
IN PRACTICALLY e~uerything St. Croix finds itself out
OF the limeGght, and in this day and time when being in the
spotlight means SO much, a backseat is detrimental. True, St.
Croix is agricultural, its people quiet and at times lethargic,
and we are the Southernmost point in. the Islands. Yet, there
is no reason why a concerted drive should not be begun to
make ourselves better known. and reap the benefits there
from. 1t is not necessary at this time to point out in detail the
many instances and examples where St. Croix could have, and
did not assert itself or tDds SkifuLq omitted.
IT MUST BE remembered that as the world grows old
er, boundaries shrink making this world smaller. Here in st.
Croix we have become convinced that sugar cane is not what
it used to be, and we must turn more and more to smaller in
dustries, and try for our share Of the tourist trade. That being
the case, we can develop such a trade only BY shouting our
assets to the world. People on the continent must know that
THERE is A ST. III island tDth beautiful beaches,

~ ADVEhIloE. here, m an tSMnd dDoundmg m natural
beauty is REST and ELAXATIO such as can be found
nor0here else, and this can be a great selling point in depelop-
ing the tourist trade.
ONE WAYTO accomplish this might be the formation
Of a central commission to develop the tourist trade, through
which the entire group might come into its own, and share
uniformly Of the benefits. More than once we have comment
ed on the possibility Of advertising on a national scale. This
IS what each and every tourist resort has done-Atlantic City,
