THANKSGIVING
WE IN THE Virgin Islands have much

WE IN Virgin Islands have much to be thankful
for this Thanksgiving. From the world standpoint we are not
yet involved in another World War. Last year at this time
many of us thought that another world wide conflict was in
evitable. It is true that the Korean War and warfare in China
exist, but we must be thankful that the peace loving nations
of the world have united in a common effort to settle inter-
national problems in an intelligent manner. We must be thank
full for the work and efforts of the United Nations.
VIRGIN ISLANDERS must be 4 thankful for the increased
interest shown by our national government toward our better
ment. The year has brought us closer to our government and
more interest and generosity has been displayed by the Con
gress. Thosesin the Interior Department have shown a will
ingness to help us to help ourselves toward the end of better
living and economic conditions, better Education and better
health facilities.
LET US BE thankful for our beautiful islands, their in
comparable climate and our peaceful and simple manner of
life. Let us be thankful for our freedom, freedom in the true
democratic sense, freedom as only Americans can know
freedom.
RHA SOMEDAY when the world will know true
peace and freedom, there will be set aside one day in the year
which might be called World Thanksgiving Day" On this
day, all the people Of the earth could rejoice and give thanks
for the blessings that have been bestowed upon them. On that
first World Thanksgiving Day" one might then say, Man
has now become civilized"
