the company has set up a dual

dismissed all the qualified native

observers see a connection be-

in the Federal Company and the
disclosure which former Secretary

clique in the Interior Department

1dCdA ep1QeLllcS winch swept
his area in 1824-25. Similarly,
at Natchez, Miss, DR.. Henry
Perrine as early as 1926 when
physicians at the royal courts
of Europe were soothing at
quinine in favor of their
purge ,puke and blood" treat
ment, was effectively routing
malaria with quinine.
When it is recalled that
qulnlne was not isolated from
cinchona bark in Paris, France
until 1920 and its manufacture
was not begun in this country
until 1923, when a factory was
opened at Philadelphia, the
progressiveness of these pio-
neer doctors is still cause for
pride in their states.
In the years since, quinine
not only was accepted as the
specific for malaria but it be-
came the common household
remedy for colds, muscle
cramps, and other ailments.
Although doctors sometimes
scoffed at uses for purposes
other than malaria recent med
zeal discoveries, as reported in
the American Heart Journal,
reveal the pioneers were right
in their faith in it as a remedy
for muscle cramps and may
have had sounder basis than
we now know for using it for
h+
colds.
Despite wide usage of the
drug, it did not become avail
able to all the population, par
ticularly in rural areas, and as
late as 1916 forty per cent of
residents Of the Mississippi
Delta were found to be mala-
.rious. Intensive treatment with
quinine on a mass basis quick
ly reduced this incidence to
four per cent.

VICO POLICY SMELLS

Everyone had hoped that with
the rechartering of the Virgin Is
lands Company it would regain
the confidence of the public and
would proceed to do an efficient
job for the rehabilitation of the in
habitants of the Virgin Islands in
general and ST. Croix in particu-
lar. From the reports that have
been coming out of the sister
island recentlv it does not appear
that the Federal agency has
changed it anti-community prac-
tees.
We hope that when the Board
of Directors meets next month
that it will give due consideration
to all policies that will enable the
company to fulfill its obligation
to the inhabitants and conform to
the spirit of the charter. It is un-
fortunate that the noble purposes
embodied in legislation as passed
by Congress are often so distor-
ted by wilful and selfish men
whom politics place in power that
the good that is dreamt and la
bored for by a few sincere men
in high places is often ignored.
The people of st. Croix are con-
cerned about the fact that
although the Virgin Islands Com
pany was chartered to promote
the economic condition of the peo-
pie of the Virgin Islands, Puerto
Ricans are being brought into the
island to do the work that local
persons were doing. In this res
pect the company has been a bad
example for private concerns and
has been defeating the purpose
of the law. If it is claimed that the
islanders themselves cannot per-
form satisfactorily then at least
they should be kept on and taught
But in many cases key men are
brought in that are far less eff
Gent than the natives who are
dismissed with practically no no
tice. The president of the COM
pany, himself a former liquor
salesman, is lacking in the expe-
rience to head the organization
and is being run by a plantation
manager from Puerto Rico who

End Of Malaria in 81
Seen by Health Leader

malaria Will PROBABLY be eu-

Service, predicts.
Nothing in our present day

was just something everyone

Fear Is Worse Than War

The Atomic bomb is like cap in toy pistol compared

hearts that escape the merciless grip of fear
Here just few examples Of what wars greatest

Mr. Jones worried constantly about the Atomic bomb
Every morning the way to his office he would look
at the sky scrapers and think how terrible it would be if
bomb dropped New York City. One day. he
worried thus he became the 98th traffic fatality of the
year.
Mrs. Smith afraid there would be food shortage
she sold her and bought supply of canned goods
that she thought might be ratOned Six months later her
doctor diagnosed her stomach trouble ulcers and
fenced her to diet of milk and cream.

She just had that feeling her soldier would
come home The only consolation she had that her
ways been thoughtful boy but he seemed to be
so when he returned Every Memorial Day he took
his mother visit the graves of his younger brothers

AS breaks out, thousands of people be-
parayzed with fear They afraid of the toll it
may take in human lives, they afraid the entire
earth will be destroyed.
War takes many lives and leaves the battefieds lit
tered with injured but when there conflict that
great toll the combination of these Fire. Flood

Now why don't we just concentrate on fighting that

stead of wasting energy worrying about things which

milky way. He is cold, withdrawn
and Indifferent. He loves her,
would like to make her his own
and put her in the center of his
family-to be the homebody-to
wash, iron, to cook, to clean house
and bear children.
She would like all this, plus her
her art. He doesn't see how the
two can be mixed. Her art has
already been acclaimed by those
who know-and they say she has
the ability to go far in her chosen
field. Her fiance has told her that
she must choose between her art
and him.
There is great war going on
within her soul. She sat discussing
her problem with me: "Why does
MT he accept me as am? That
is all I ask. Why does he want to
suppress my personality? We have
enough in common to find hap
piness together. I am willing to
give him everything but my art
:. Why isn't he willing to leave
me something? My friends = he
doesn't like my friends-I can't
treat this lightly. I have given him
all that I have, and he still wants
e-more-more. Why isn't he
willing to leave me something?
When I'm contributing my best,
he is in the background mocking
me!
In the Philippines I am told
there grows up the side of the
trees in some sections, a very rare
species of orchid which cannot
survive without nourishment from
the tree and giving nothing in
return. He reminds me so much
of this orchid"
I read to her excerpts from
"Love and Marriage" from "The
Prophet" by Kahlil Gabran: "Love
gives nought but itself and takes
nought but from itself. Love pos
sesses not nor would it be possess
sed; for love is sufficient unto
love.
Aye, you shall be together when
the white wings of death scatter
your days. But let there be spaces
in your togetherness, and let the
winds of the heavens dance be-
tween you.
Love one another, but make not
a bond of love-"
Lets go to church today! I
want to make a vow. shall ask
God to direct me, to help me to
develop my art and share it with
my fellowman. In so sharing dis
cover kindred souls and help them.
It will be difficult, but I'll grad
ually give him up"
Everyone needs a friend to pour
out his or her soul to at times.
One in whom she has implicit
confidence. Too often the friend
has only to listen. The person will
make her own decision.
My artist friend has thus far
lived up to her vow. believe she
will achieve her goal. How for
tunate she is that she discovered
the gap between them before too
late. Five or ten years hence, she
will reap the benefit of her deci-
sion, and like the poet will sing:
my love is like the high star in
the heavens;
And tho distance and days come
between us,
Like sometimes the clouds hide =
my star from me;
Yet I know my star is still shining
as brightly as ever,
And when those clouds disappear,
I shall find it so."

Ham For Glamor,
Ham For Thrift

A whole or half ham is always
a thrifty buy. There's a fine COM
pany ham dinner plus lots of good
everyday eating-all wrapped up in
the same package!
For it's first appearance, send the
ham to the table-baked and glaZ-
ed and looking like a picture on
it's color-bedecked platter. Bake
the ham according to the directions
on the wrapper or instruction tag.
Place it, fat side up, on rack in
an uncovered porcelain enameled
baking pan or roaster. Enameled-
ware is ideal for roasting meats
because it heats evenly and its
glossy finish lis easy to clean.
What's more the ham can be
covered with wax paper and stored
in the refrigerator right in the
porcelain enameled baking pan.
About a half hour before the
ham is done, take from the oven
and remove the rind. Score fat
lightly with a sharp knife and
spread the surface with brown
sugar, honey or apricot jam. Re-
turn to the oven until the surface
is we'll glazed. Decorate with
Maraschino cherries and cloves.
Serve on platter garnished with
carrot curls, apricot halves or
spiced crab apples nested in greens.
What's left of the ham will be
welcome treat for the family if it's
served in variety of different
ways. Try these:
1. Arrange slices of ham in
creased baking pan. Top each slice
with ring of canned pineapple.
Sprinkle with brown sugar and
heat until the sugar is melted.
2. Cube some of the ham and
bake with escalloped potatoes for
a hearty main dish.
3. Mix the last bits of the ham
into cream sauce and add cooked
peas and dish of prepared must
ard. Serve hot over freshly baked
powder biscuits.

which faction would retain control,
was postponed until next Thurs

There were about 125 people who

The people were dismissed with
the assurance that there definitely

Ohio Agricultural Experiment Sta

Late in February, Mr.. and Mrs.
J. B. Davidson, of near Cam

chicks on deep litter used by old
hens. This litter was composed
of shavings about S inches thick
although the Davidsons now feel
it would have been even better
if deeper.
County Agent Oscar Share re-
ports that there has been no more
losses from disease in this group
of chicks than would normally be
expected, and the Davidsons think
the chicks are as even flock as
they have ever raised.
