PRICE AND EXPORT
CONTROL

With the termination of ma
tional price control at the end
of the fiscal year 1916, the gov
eminent of the Virgin Islands
has continued to exercise a
measure of control over local
prices as authorized by local
legislation. Controls have not
been exercised except upon
foodstuffs, and even in that
limited area, only basic com
modities have been controlled.
Most of these commodities are
imported and, therefore, the
prices at which commodities
are introduced into the com
munity are beyond local con-
troll. Moreover, the local gov
ernment has not been in posi-
ton financially to maintain an

HEALTH and SANITATION

A
Although there were three
new cases admitted to the Lep-
er Asylum in st Croix, the
census at the close of the year
had reached an all time low
of Sc, with the expectation that
a number of these could safe
~ and would be paroled dur
ing the next months. Funds
were made available, during
the year, for treatment Of the
inmates of the Leper Asylum
with new drugs, promin, and
.diason. Nearly all of the 20 pa
tients under treatment res
|ponded noticeably.
The infant mortality rate
during the first year of life in
the Virgin Islands of 92.3 per
1000, although still high, was
one of the best on record. The
death rate Of 1853 was slightly
higher than last years very
low rate, but well below the
10-year average. The birth rate
has increased to 81 per 1000.

Support The Red Cross
THE RED CROSS has opened its campaign for member
ship, March being the month set aside for raising funds.
THERE is but one difficulty in calling attention to, and
seeking support for the Red Cross, and that is that the work
OF the Red Cross, its great humanitarian efforts, and its ever
present service wherever disaster strikes is so well known that
there is little room for rehearsal. Anything which might be
said is already so very well known to one and all, in every
corner of the globe, that is merely necessary to display the
sign, or to mention the name RED CROSS" for everyone to
know and understand what is meant.
THIS year the National Red Cross is seeking to raise a
total Of rs million dollars. Our local quota is $1,O5O For the
work which this great world mother does, both the national
and local quotas are indeed nominal Each community has it
Junior and Senior Chapters, and each, contributing to its full
est should more than make this grade. And here is where we
come in. There will be those who can contribute 500 or
more, and will gladly do SO, and on the other hand there are
those, who, with 500 will be making their full contribution,
Yet, whatever the contribution may be, put together, these
will make our quota, and more, and if each and every COM
muniity does likewise, the Red Cross will be able to carry on
according to plans. Then there will be program and fund
raising activities to which we should pledge our whoeheared
support.
WHEREVER there is human suffering, whenever diSas-
ter strikes, be it earthquake, hurricane, fire, food, or war, the
Red Cross is on the job, dispensing medicine, distributing
food, and treating the sick. It is one organization which cuts
across all lines in reaching the scenes Of suffering humanity.
It was the Red Cross which set up a blood bank 50 responsible
for saving thousands Of lives during the last war.
WE JOIN in the appeal to our citizens to respond to the
cal. No greater purpose could be served than is being served
BY the Red Cross and it is for US to give, and give generously.
