BUT no mention of Hands
Across The Sea could be COM
plete without calling attention
to the idea of Mr.. Afford, a re-
ancent visitor who volunteered
an annual contribution of
$500, with the provision that
additional funds be raised in
the Islands. Of course such an
opportunity could not be al
lowed to slip by, and for that
the public is appreciative to
those who took up the chal-
lenge and did something de-
finite about it.
WE urge that everyone in
the community give gener-
ously for a cause which is
worthy, and from which all
will benefit. As appeals are
made, no doubt programs of
various types, as the one to be
held at the Tropicana on Sum
day afternoon, will be put
forth, and this is one other way
in which the community can
help, Hands Across The Sea"
touches each and every life,
directly or indirectly, now and
for generations to come, so that
help given now may eventual
ly return to the children of
worthy natives.

Editorial
SUPPORT HANDS ACROSS THE SEA"

FEW ORGANIZATIONS ever to come to life in these Is
lands have had a more worthy purpose than the Hands Across
The Sea Scholarship, Inc" AS already announced in this
paper, this Committee will raise funds for scholarships to
needy Virgin Islanders. Time was when young men and young
women from these Islands went off on their own, worked their
way, or received whatever help was available from outside
sources. Perhaps it was thought that education was a luxury
for a select few, and that so long as the three Rs were pro-
perly taught, the rest would take care of itself. But as time
passed it became increasingly clear that the world was ad-
vancing to a stage where more than readin, ritin,' and
;rthmeic were necessary. The last War brought this home
forcibly, as young men were called upon to handle highly
technical Instruments, and to do this called for higher train
ing than the men of the First World War had.
EACH STATE IN the Union, has its college or univer-
SHy supported by public funds. However, because of limited
economic means we can 90 no further than high school, and
those who seek more are forced to shift for themselves, unless
the family bank account can stand it. Yet, there is a respon-
sibilty to graduates which cannot be shunted aside. And here
is where Hands Across The Sea" comes in. Realizing the state
ofpubic funds, and the inability to provide for adequate high
er education for our youth, this thoughtful group set about
to accomplish just that. In every field there must be those
who lead, & unlimited credit goes to the small groups of men
and women who not only had the vision, but the drive to do
something about the situation. The incorporators Of Hands
Across The Sea" are Louis Shulterbrandt, Commissioner of
Finance, Mrs. Vivian Anduze, wife of DR.. Roy Anduze, NUM-
cipal Physician, Attorney William F. Moorhead, and Mrs.
Pearl Byrd Larsen, Superintendent OF Education for St. Croix.
MOVING SWIFTLY to put the corporation on a sound
working basis, plans were made to select eligible graduates.
And to do this an Advisory Committee from each Island was
selected. For St. Croix the members are Claude o. Markoe,
Principal of the Christiansted High School, Dr.. Aubrey
Anduze, Municipal Dentist, Harold Benedict, former Prin-
cipal of the High School, Mrs. Ozema Johnson, Alexander
Henderson, Principal of the Frederiksted Junior High School,
and Anders Petersen, Principal of the Christansted Public

nurses rolled the big iron lung out
of its place in the polio ward.
On its trip down the long hall

respirators were used to keep the

skilled surgeons quickly removed
the inflamed appendix. The op-
