OF the harbor dredging project,
there is nothing we can or should
do about this. We are planning
our hospitals now, with the asis-
lance of qualified hospital con-
struction officials of the Govern
ment of Puerto Rico, and I have
already agreed with the Depart
ment of the Interior that if suffi-
cient funds r not available this
year to build hospitals in all three
islands, we will begin operations
by constructing the hospitals in
st. Croix first, since the munich
patty of st. Thomas and st. John
will have the benefit of the water
front improvement project which
will be in progress this year.
Nevertheless, planning for the
hospital in st. Thomas, and for
the small hospital building in ST.
John, will continue. Funds have
been requested for next year for
those school and hospital facilities
which have had to be postponed
this year on account of the GEN
eral freeze order on federal pub
lie works. Federal airport funds,
with matching municipal funds,
are now available for terminal
improvements in st. Thomas and
st. Croix. AS soon as funds r
available, I shall recommend the
the extension of the airstrip on
st. Croix to accommodate the larg
er airplanes. Because Of its topo-
graphy, st. Croix should eventu-
ally become the main air terminal
in these islands.
Administrative planning
Since taking office I have given
serious thought to ways and
means of making our various gov
ernmental agencies better serve
the needs Of our people. / have had
an expert survey made Of the or
erations of our Department Of Fl
nance and ! hope we can get
funds next year to put into effect
the recommendations for improv-
ed financial operations. Other 81

In the field of public works pro
jects, I have devoted considerable
time and effort to working for a
simplification of the requirements
for the construction of these ne
cessary facilities and their. coordi-
nation with the activities of the
local government. The Depart.
ment of the Interior, which took
over the administration of these
projects in July this year, has rem
dered excellent cooperation in
this respect. AS a result of all this,
we now have a working arrange
ments between the local govern
ment and the agency administer
ing the projects which ensures
that the projects will be built in
accordance with our needs as we
see them. Officers of the Interior
Department have come to the is
lands to work with m or the plan
ming of these projects. The work
on the million-dollar waterfront
Improvements in st. Thomas has
started. Road work, authorized
over a year ago, in st. Thomas &
st. Croix will start shortly in the
sum of some $246, 600. Funds are
being allocated for clearing up
some of the engineering Difficult
ties we have encountered on the
sewer project, the abattoir, and
the potable water supply systems.
And finally, upon my personal re-
presentation and in keeping with
inaugural promise to the peo-
pie of st. John, / have succeeded
in having $4,000 allocated for the
beginning of the road work in st.
John from Coral Bay to Cruz Bay.

for commencement until next fis-

Law and order
| have been aware of a growing
disregard for the value of public
property as evidenced by the re-
cent Wanton destruction of traffic
signs in st. Thomas, and a disre-
gard of the common amenities as
evidenced by the use of vile Ian
guage, gambling, and indecent
acts on the public streets and
other public places. / am also
aware that a very small segment
OF our communities is responsible
for these infractions. ! have direct
ed our police departments to be
d1llgent in bringing offenders to
justice. ! appeal to all our people
to maintain the good name which
our communities have always
held and still hold as law-abiding
and self-respecting communities.

plause to those new residents of
the Virgin Islands who are active

which spell advancement not only

Accomplishments by
administration
And now let me summarize
some of the more important
things that my administration has
been working upon during the
past few months. First and fore
most, vigorous representations on
our part have finally brought us
the benefits Of the public assis-
lance and insurance provisions of
the Social Security Act. We were
fortunate in having Congress ap-
propriate one million dollars for
dredging the harbor of st. Thorn

his appropriation to the defense
ffort of our Nation. That is a sit
uation which we must meet and
accept with complete understand
ing and patriotism. AS American
citizens we must pay our share of
the price Of maintaining interna-
tional justice against international
bandltry. | am certain that now
that the situation with respect to
the necessity for our harbor dredg
ing project is understood in high
circles In Washington, we shall be
able to obtain a re-appropriation
OF the amount in a subsequent fis-
cal year when the world situation
IS more nearly normal than it is
now. We have been fortunate in
having friends of ours in Con-
gress, some of whom will visit us
for the second time beginning to-
morrow, push through the long de
1ayed bill for extension of voca-
t1onal education aid to our islands.
just as soon as an appropriation
is obtained, this program will be
in full swing.
We have been able, through
these same friends of ours, to
have a bill passed permitting the
admission of alien mental patients
who are legal residents Of the Vir-
gin Islands into st. Elizabeths Hos
pital. We have been able to have
a bill passed by Congress provid-
ing that foreign raw material
which is admitted into the Unit
ed States free of duty might like
wise be admitted into these is
lands free of duty. The heretofore
restrictive clause in the 1917 Tenn
porary Government Act prevent
a button factory from establish
ing here a few years ago. / am
now again trying to interest this
enterprise in setting up a factory
here. We have been fortunate in
having a generous Congress make
the necessary provisions this year
for Housing and development
loans and grants to the Virgin Is
We have been fortunate,
after years of effort, to have our
representatives made in Washing
ton this year eliminate in the eli

This has been a sore spot for
many years and I am glad that /
