you as time goes on, do not let
that change. Let these islands al

mean a great deal in the years
ahead, is our Landmarks League.
This is concerned with just that
sort of thing. Some of us who like
to make progress and think of get

make st. Croix look like New

Paris or some place, and yet with

what direction you are going to
face and make up your mind that
every step you are going to take
is in that direction, and l hope
that the people of st. Croix, the
people Of the Virgin Islands are
resolving and feeling in their own
hearts and minds that whatever
changes we m e, whatever
things we try to do, shall be steps
forward. And as long as the com
munity and the people are NOV

be impatient; / am impatient, we
are all impatient at times. Things
do not always happen as readily
as we want them to happen, but

In our moving forward or in any

we will always keep what may

great strength and excellence of
life in this community. / mean by
that the spirit of people. The way
people act toward other people. I
have had people from the main
land and from the outside come in
to st. Croix and say again and
again, st. Croix is such a friendly

in Christiansted or Frederiksted
all of your lives, many of you, see
these same old scenes day in and
day out,and you probably get used
to them, and they 90 not mean
very much to you but the real
beauty of the architecture of this
town, the style of the fine old
buildings, is something that you
wont find everywhere. It is some
thing you do not find in many
buildings, and I do hope, as l be-
lieve, that we will cherish that as
one of the real values to be kept
in our community.
Keep the style of your build
ings; they r really beautiful. If
you build new structures or reno
del old ones, keep the same style
and general outline that you have
in your present buildings. There is
something worth cherishing. l do
not mean some of the very unfor-
tunate huts and houses that some
of us have to live in. You know
we r working now on a housing
program which I think will mean
a different type of housing but as
we are building these structures
let us keep the old style of build
ing; let us keep the basic appear
ance of the old community and it
will be something that we can
cherish and be proud of and our
children and grandchildren in this
the town of Frederiksted,

the very fine style their buildings
