of this bill is not out of line
with our needs and is not an
unreasonable amount for us to
have. They should be assured
that there are sufficient safe
guards to be sure that we are
not going to be reckless in the
expending of it; and then af-
ter that leave this matter of
determining how much should
be spent for policemen and
how much for schools and
should we put up a new build
ing this year or should we
postpone it and wait until an
other year, to be passed on at
the local level. That is, I re-
spectfully submit where they
should be decided, and we
should not have to come here

vice that was to be included
and may be expanded and lib.
eralized on the basis of the
work that they were doing.
Mr.. Reed. Well, / know what
my objective was in those
days. It was that l wanted tc
bring in people that had beer
perhaps hopelessly crippled OF
blind.
| remembered that Ford
took on large numbers o1
blind. He made them s~elf-sup.
porting. The object was to re.
lieve the Government of every
thing except just the initial
expenditure.
Mr.. Mason. That is right.
Mr.. Reed. Do you see my
point.
Mr.. Mason. Yes.
Mr.. Reed. To make these PEG.
pie self-supporting, we would
take them off the Government
dole entirely.
Governor HASTE. l had just
been saying that I think that
the practical obstacles are in.
surmountable.
| can give one illustration
on the reality of how it bears
to the question the gentleman
from California made. VIZ
have been trying to get Fed
eral grant-in-aid acts extend
ed to the Virgin Islands. We
do not get help under the Fed
eral Highway Act; we do not
get help under the Federal
Airport Act; through the in
itiative of this committee, we
got one title of the Social Sc
curity Act, but with reference
to the public assistance titles
ofsthe Social Security Act. we
do not get those.
There are any number OF
these grants-in-aid that we do
not get. Experience has shown
the tremendous job that each

tons in some cases that are not
particularly Virgin Island
considerations. Policy can i'm
pede our getting favorable
consideration.
So, the practical difficulty of
coming in each year and get.
ting this money is tremendous.
| say it relates to the question.
because it does indicate one
way in which we are much
more unfavorably situated
than the States are.
As to the theoretical side
OF 1t, regarding the point made.
by Mr.. Cooper, I believe you
gentlemen will appreciate
what | am about to say.
If those of you whose dis
Itricts contain small towns and
rural areas will imagine a
county in your district of sew
leral small towns and several
areas and say to yourself, rs
it theoretically sound, or is it
desirable that the Congress
should annually be consider
ing the details of the budget
and the financial needs of a
tiny area of that sort?"
In other words, the problems
that are to be considered in
determining our needs are
from a national point of view,
quite insignificant. Our prob
LENS are similar to the prob
lens with which any oommun-
Iity in any Of our States is con-
icerned.
Do you need some more nur-
Ises in your hospitals? Should
the policemen get a $40 in
crease in salary? Should the
schools add on a new de-
|partment of such-and-such?
All Of those are very impor-
itant functions Of local govern
ment, and of local government
at the very local level.
Those are the things that go
into the consideration Of what
we need each year and what
we need and spend it for
| respectfully submit that
the Congress should not an
nually be concerned with
those details of the administra-I

STATEMENT OF
HON. WILLIAM H. HASTE
GOVERNOR
OF THE VIRGIN ISLANDS

Mr.. Mason. May I make an
observation on that point. Mr..
Chairman?
Mr.. Reed. Mr.. Mason.
Mr.. Mason. There is this dis
similarity between the reha-
bilitation work that was done
and the situation concerning
the Virgin Islands.
M. Reed. Very much so.
Mr.. Mason. The final obiec-
tive of any help we give to the
Virgin Islands is to make them
self-supporting so that they
can go ahead and hold their
own. While we never had that
thought in the Rehabilitation
Service, | think the thought
should be how much good can
be accomplished by this mon
ey that we are going to give
and continue handing out.
Mr.. Reed. / will have to diff
fer with you there, Mr.. Mason.
Our objective here is to reha-
bilitate the people so that they
could become self-suporting,
and they did.
Mr.. Mason, That is true, but

be self-supporting was a ser

read a letter recently written b.
IN. H. Corey. Portland Consult
ing Engineer who is now making
Ia study Of the Kennewick Ir-
|risation Districts water system,
lin which il was stated that the
AREA from Hanford On down
should be served by a single
water system. The necessity is
lso obvious. wrote Corey, that
nothing less should be considered.
The developments at the coun-
lcil meeting came hard on the
heels Of an announcement from
| Olympia, made Friday. that the
linflux Of people in the Kenne-
wick area has brought about an
unhealthy condition. -.
The statement came from Gov
,,ernor Walleren, who said that he
had inspected the area himself
and that the health problem
"could be serious" and that
many people there think it is
now"
Saying that he has under study
recent report from d.. Arthur
Il. Ringle, state director Of
health, Governor Wallgren des-
cribed the Kennewick commun-
ity as lacking in sewage and
garbage disposal facilities and in
an adequate water supply. Chill
dren, he added, have not been
immunized against ordinary d.
seases.
Dr.. Ringle's Recommendation
that the state spend SIS, $50 in
the area in the ensuing IL
months was considered by the
Governor in the light Of a re
lquirement that monies from hsi
emergency fund cannot be spent
for capital outlay.
Accordingly, construction
funds will have to be raised To-
sically, the Governor said.
DR.. Ringle made several re-
commentators, including COOP
Grafton between the Acc and
local officials in meeting the pro-

head-whether privately owned
or publicly owned.
Skill expressed the hope that
city officials would find repre-
sentatives Of the Acc ready to
work with them toward Q solu-
ton Of the problem. "The PIP q
u will not stand In the way OF
any plan for development" he
assured councilmen. nor will 1t
hold the city up on the price
asked for the existing water sys-
tenn" -a ..z
His appraisal of the situation
was summarized In his state
ment that deep wells do moi
lend themselves well to an ade-
|quate water supply for an ex-
|panding population. The two
wells now owned by the comp
any are approximately $50 feet
deep. One is holding up well -
the other not so well. And adj
ditional drilling is difficult and
costly.
In commenting on the infor-
nation given by Skill, Mayor
Pratt said that the visit of con-
gresham w. Sterling Cole Rep.
|N.YJ to Kennewick may be a
'forerunner of governmental aid
in the water problem. When the
problem Is properly delineated
as an emergency. help can be
secured, he insisted.
81 cannot hope to answer all
the questions that might be ask
ed about ways of financing this
needed water distribution devel-
opment" the Mayor said, but
I am interested in getting bet
ter water and am adequate sup
ply of water for the city. No
city can develop without it.
California is finding that out
right now" ..
The alternatives that have
been considered by the munich
pal government, Mayor Pratt
disclosed, have been whether it
is better for the Kennewick r.
rigation District TO take over the
entire system, whole-saling wa
ter to the city; whether the PIP &
Z should act in the same capa-
city; or whether the city should
finance and own its own water
system.
In any event, said the Mayor.
we must build q filtration plant
and arrange that all water de-
ivered to consumers Of the COM
munity IS amply projected.
"Our city cannot afford to
experience q major epidemic, "
|he warned listeners.
The Mayor disclaimed any in
|tention to recommend that the
city 60 in lover its head" fl
financially to provide a water sys-
tenn. Nonetheless. he reiterated,
the Improvement must come.
