Holiday Traffic
Will Be Heavy

T. j. Kauer, Director of the
Ohio Department of Highways,
today called on Ohioans to put
safety at the top of their last
minute Christmas shopping list.
"A safe Christmas celebration,
free from traffic accidents that
mar holiday happiness in the
homes of Ohio residents, is the
very best present anybody can
give or receive" he said.
Motorists and pedestrians were
asked to recognize the extra holi-
day hazards and to offset them
with the extra caution needed

Secrest To Seek
Pension Increase

A Is per cent raise of veterans
pensions and other benefits will
be one of the first pieces of legis-
lation to go before Congress in
January.
This assurance was given by
Congressman Robert T. Secrest,
at a meeting of the Zane Chapter
No. IL, Disabled American Vet
erans, in GAINESVILLE, Friday night.
Secrest pointed out that the
increase is necessary to meet the
rising cost of living and pointed
out that the veterans were the
only group ignored when Con-
gresS pushed through raises for
federal employees.
The representative also traced
the growth of veterans legisla-

a great executive. The man who
represented the Governor in St.
Croix is the one to whom citizens
of the island are paying tribute
and giving testimony to the
twenty years of abundant service
he has rendered to our people.
1t was a pleasure to work with
Mr.. Taylor as head of the Saint
Croix Homestead Commission and
l found that same satisfaction
serving on the Government staff
in St. Croix of which he has been
Administrator-the top govern
ment oficial. in this island.
When Mr.. Taylor came to Saint
Croix he met a people in a small
island with nothing much to offer
except a culture which had been
inherited. It was that culture that
people from the continent dis
covered & appreciated. Probably
Mr.. Taylor also observed that Gull
ture when he came here a score
of years ago. He found it III our
Council, in our public service
everywhere. And Mr. Taylor
respected us.
Often the policies of the Gov
erncr and the desires of the repre-
sentatives in Council would clash.
AS a good administrator, Mr.. Tay-
Tor was never found sitting on a
mass of political wreckage.
Like other men in high office he
had his bitter experiences. Aspir-
ing ofice-holders and disgruntled
citizens have tried to remove Mr..
Taylor from his official position in
this island, Attempts have been
made to undermine him and to
sabotage his work. This long time
in office wasNno bed of roses. May
be he often sickened from the
poison of subversive influences.
Perhaps, on more than one oc-
ans he felt like barring his
bosom to the -assassins but, the
courage of this man helped him

VIRGIN ISLANDS CORPORATION
ST. CROK POWER AUTHORITY
Nicasio Nico, Director
, 1951-11-08

Prior to the establishment
of the Homestead Commission,
Paul M. Pearson, Governor of
the Virgin Islands invited me
to assist him in the selection
Of persons to constitute the
first homestead commission
for this island. Harry E. Tay-
lor, Commissioner of Industry
for the Virgin Islands was
chosen to head the Commits
sion. I was appointed as mem
Der of the Commission.
| soon recognized that Mr..
Taylor was a man of integrity.
He conducted the work of the
Commission with efficiency
and was devoted to the objects
Of the Commission. He evinced
a genuine interest in the i'm
provement of living conditions
among our people and worked
increasingly toward that end.
The members Of the Commits
sion worked .harmoniously
with its Chairman. The vast
area Of land bought by the
United States Government for
distribution as homesteads was
subdivided and allotted; the
building Of houses on the plots
was limited by the funds pro-
vided by the United States
Government and money was
set apart for aid to the home
steaders.
Because of the difficulties
encountered and the patience
he exercised under trying cir
cumstances, and because Of the
friendly treatment in dealing
with the homesteaders, I adj
rived MI. Tov7or IS a man Of
1ile and his unbiased deal

to face the dangers and the ever
careful discharge Of his manifold
duties clothed him with a garment
that was and continues to be un-
touchable. He proved to be a giant
among his adversaries.
Coming to these islands as one
OF the first officials of the civil
administration, MI. Taylor held
high the official standards of the
Government.
When the outstanding judge
William H. HASTE, an idol of
colored Americans was appointed
Governor of the Virgin Islands,
this community did not expect
Mr.. Taylor to serve under a Ne
gro Governor. He rendered sub
stantlal help and loyal service to
the HASTE Administration, and
was among us at the last dinner
TOR the Governor, and added his
word to the kind expressions from
the other friends of the Governor.
thus teaching a lesson in race
lationship to the people of the
United States and to the people
of these islands.
In saying farewell, to Admin
lstrator Taylor, we look with era
LITIGATION of your successor, Judge
d. c. Canegata who has over
twenty-five years to his credit in
public service-another giant in
right conduct.
Mr.. Taylor you leave your Of

will of most Of U.s., but with the
respect of all of US. Your final
reward will be found in the fact
that you have carried on your
office ably and conscientiously for
the benefit Of the people of Saint
Croix.

ing earned my appreciation.
The homesteaders are today
the owners of the land which
they acquired on the most Ii
beral terms and the advan-
tages they now enjoy are the
result of the efforts put into
that uphill struggle.
During my long service as
member of the Colonial Coun-
Gil Of this island, | have met
and worked with representa-
tives of the executive branch
OF the Government. In our
experience we found much to
do with too little money avail
able. Congressional generosity
in making appropriations for
these Virgin Islands began
with the Roosevelt New Deal.
In the early days of the Ameri
can administration of these
islands we realized that we
would always have to fight for
the things that WE need. At
times our discussions in Coun-
Gil were heated-sometimes
blistering.
We had a clear conception of
what should be the official deport-
ment of the Governor or of an
official representative of the Gov
ernor when dealing with the legis
lative branch of the Government.
1t is true that Mr.. Taylor brought
to his Office a wealth of experience
from which many could benefit, a
character which showed no sign
of blemish. He stood at the top
round of the ladder of dignity on
which other good men could climb
and share that place with him.
I was invited by Governor Law
renee w. Cramor to enter the
Government service. Mr.. Cramer
was known to be an able man and

her. His relations with his wife
