HEARINGS SUCCESSFUL


H RECENT hearings conducted by the House
Ways and Means Committee on Appropriations and also a
House subcommittee on Education and Labor, were rather
successful, and beyond our expectations. There were no gar-
ing and grandioSe promises made, such as would, no doubt,
call forth a parade, but the representatives of the people of
this Island had an opportunity to sit face to face with impor-
tat Congressional Committees and reveal some of our grav-
est problems. If nothing else, these members can now know
what the trouble is, and where it lies, and when bills affect
ing the Islands come before Congress, a personal knowledge
can be highly valuable, both in the sense of appreciation of
the problem, and the aid which these men can give other
members of Congress.
WE HAD HOPED, and are now satisfied that members
of the community, through their representatives, took advan-
tage of the opportunity to point out exactly where the trouble
lies. Our schools, for example, are in shocking condition, the
buildings never having been really structures for public pur-
poses, but homes. And this is positively revolving to the Amer
lean mind which is SO sensitive about schools, and what they
represent to the community. Then there was the information
that field workers here receive but $500 per day for their la
bors.
CONGRESS, IT must be remembered, has been skepti-
cal of the Virgin Islands Company and its program, no doubt
because the Company failedto pay its way. However, after a
visit to the Islands and face to face contact with actual condi
tons there should now be a more tolerant and sympathetic
attitude. The Virgin Islands Company is the greatest employ
er of labor here, and its payroll will naturally be the largest
expense item, but that is as it should be. We hope that having
seen the situation, these committeeman will return to Wash
ington fully armed with the type of information which should
prove favorable to us in time to come. They will recall, we
hope, that those who toll daily receive but a fraction of what
they deserve, and that as a result the standard of living is con-
siderably below that of which America boasts so freely.
IF ONLY more Congressman would head this way the.
situation would change, for they would be convinced that a
long range program extensive enough to strike at the heart of

In a statement released by the

has been taking place in the UN

is "the further undermining of

walton of East-West differences.
Wallace said cit is impossible

upon our own United States dele

The Progressive Party leader ac-
cused the U. S. and Great Britain
of attempting a new division
of African territories which do
not belong to them, but to the
peoples of Africa"
Asserting that what the Afri-

ment" Wallace said that what
the U.S.A. and Britain are think
