Continued from Page One

Continued from Page One but idle AFL sailors union of the Pacific has accused CIO longshore- men of attempting to invade its jurisdiction.
 Harry Lundeberg, chief of the AFL union, said We're not going to sail any ships until we have a meeting with shipowners and set tie this"
 The Pacific American shipoWn- CTS association has pos, ,poned talks with Lundeberg until after final settlement of the strike.
 The four ships placed on union work lists are the New World Vic tory and Flying Dragon of Far East Lines and the Hawaiian mer- chant and Hawaiian Farmer of MatsOn lines. They will be the frs ships worked in the strike-bound ports except for tankers, army veS- Sels and few with strike-exempt cargoes.
 The firemen's agreement calls for $2l monthly increase for men in varied work brackets for offshOre, intercoastal and Alaskan jobs. The union rejected a $15 hike for coaStWise runs, and this is to be re-negotiated.
 Employers and marine cooks and stewards agreed on tentative | three-year contract provi n 2 about $50 a month more for al jobs and other benefits. The union will vote today on ratification.

CHILD WELFARE DIVISION

CHILD WELFARE DIVISION
The Child Welfare Division
was added TO the Department
of Social Welfare by virtue Of
the extension to the Virgin Is
lands of Title V of the Social
Security Act. The functions of
this division are two fold--to
establish child welfare ser
vices in st. Croix and to und-
ertake an in-service training
program for its staff.
The actual work of the child
welfare division began late in
July with the arrival of the
Assistant Chief of the Insular
Division of Child Welfare. BY
September 2, the division had
reached its full personnel
strength.
During the first few months
Of the the division, its pro-
gress was slow because of ade-
quate space for operation
which was remedied in Nov
ember; lack of transportation
facilities, until the arrival of
the division car late in Octo-
Der; lack of funds to carry on
the program, which was not
remedied until the next to the
last month of the fiscal year;
and other administrative de-
lays. AT the end Of January
1948, the two professional
wokers resigned and new staff
members employed. These
positions were not filled until

grade) and March Is, 1913
thigh school grade).
Services for children in St.
Croix were at a minimum.
When the new division went
into action the Queen Louise
Home for young children, APP
Grated by the Lutherans, was
the only institution on the is
land offering substitute par
entail care. AS its capacity was
twenty-three (23) children, it
is obvious that its services
were much in demand. In Ju-
ly 1947, 124 children in needy
families who by virtue of
death of one or both parents
or parent, were granted who'll
~ inadequate individual pen
sions of $3.50 a month, with
the maximum grant being
$1,000, however large the ia
mily might have been. An at
tempt had been made by the
Department of Welfare to of
fer care to dependent and de-
linquent boys by housing a
few in the Fort at Frederik-
sted. Although provisions had
been made by municipal ordi-
nance to send the delinquent
boys of St. Croix to School for
boys on St. Thomas, sufficient
money for this had never been
appropriated. The shelter in
the Fort was unstaffed except
for a cook, who served the Pc
lice Department as well as the
boys, and was not sufficiently
supported by Municipal funds

to offer anything more than a

food to eat and clothing to

supervision, the boys were

Tile DOyS WGTG innocent. by
virtue of that same lack of SUI
pervision, the Department was
unable to offer the needed
protection to the boys in such
instances. A feeling of mis-
trust and scapegoat-ism was
engendered in the community
toward the boys. This was re-
Elected in all walks of life.
In December 1947, five boys
resident in the Shelter were
transferred to the School on
St. Thomas after the st. Tho
mas Municipal Council agreed
to accept ten boys from st.
Croix at a reduced fee. The
Shelter was then closed.
Five children were receiv-
ing foster home grants as of
July l947 for a total of $34. a
at $3.50 and one at 81. per
monthly
Those. then. were the SER
vices available to children at
the beginning of July, 1917
The Queen Louise Home, The
Boys Shelter at Frederiksted,
inadequate pensions for child
rem, and a small foster home
appropriation. Because of no
funds, from July 1947 to May
1948, no money for any further
assistance to children was
available. 1t was impossible
even to add a child to the pen
sion list if, for some reason,
a recipient were dropped, be-
cause the pension list was
over-subscribed and had to be
decreased in order to meet the
limitations of budget appro-
priation for aid to the Poor.
By June l948, the number Of
children receiving general as
sistance was reduced to ia,
despite the increase of appli-
cation for aid
This inability on the part
of the division to offer any re-
gular financial assistance for
eleven months resulted in an
almost empty program for the
division even to failure to
stave off actual hunger from
children. One tragic example
of this was a family of a moth

chants scored a run as Warren

Lobby" Mazgay, and scored on
the shortstop's wild throw home.
They added another run in the

Caldwell tailed four runs in
the fifth for their big inning on
two hits, two errors and a hit

out. A quick double play, pitcher
to home to first, and a pop-up to
the catcher retired the side with
out run.
The Merchants picked up two
more runs in the seventh on Ed
Mazgay's double and singles by
Macenko and Tilton, plus a bad
