Controlled Materials
Program Is Reported
Running Into Trouble
BY the Assoeia,ed Pres.


NEW YORK, July 18.-Serious
trouble is ahead for the Govern
ment's controlled materials plan
in parceling out steel, copper and
aluminium. the Iron Age said to-
day.
Steel mills already are returning
GIMP orders to consumers by the
hundreds as the allocations mount
beyond the amount which mills
are required to accept, said the
national Woodworking weekly.
Disgruntled consumers ''can
hardly be blamed for becoming
angry over being allocated steel
which will not be available" it
said. Actually some consumers
are almost as much to blame for
this dilemma as are people in
charge Of the program.
They overstated their needs so
much that even cuts in original
requested tonnages made by the
National Production Authority left
some of them with certified checks
for more steel than they really
need. Steel producers know this
because they are familiar with
historical requirements OF Their
customers"
Sentiment is growing that per-
haps a better plan would be tc
drop the entire GIMP program
and return to a straight defense
order priority system limited
strictly to military needs, the Iron
Age said.
Steelmaking operations this
week are scheduled at 1o2 pei
cent OF rated capacity, the publ
cation estimated-up half point
from the previous week.

SWEEPING CONCLUSIONS


H EXCHANGE of letters between Senator Butler and
Ashley |. Totten makes interesting reading. The Senator in
siSts that the people of these Islands should be sefsustaining,
and that the principal reason for failure lies in the weak moral
fibre of the inhabitants. MI. Totten takes, naturally, the op-
posite view, and we agree with him.
TO DECIDE THAT an entire population is lacking in
initiative, industry and the ability to make their own way is
a conclusion too sweeping to admit of any real scientific basis.
These same Virgin Islanders live in New York where they
hold responsible positions, and are considered among the
most reliable, industrious and efficient workers to be found
anywhere. There are factors in the life of a people which no
fleeing visit can reveal nor explain.
In the field of agriculture a most unusual and peculiar
system has existed from which no single decade could see or
provide any respite. Here, for example, is an island divided
into estates with their managers, overseers and drivers, and
which produced sugar for export. The entire island economy
was geared to this system. Artisans, such as wheelwrightS,
blacksmiths, carpenters and others lived BECAUSE of this sys-
tenn. Then there was a collapse. Those who owned large tracts
of land could no longer cultivate them profitably. And the
grand search for a method to combat the evil was on. The
homesteads came along, but they, too, did not solve the pro-
blem because they were more or less based upon a system
which provided some measure of security in the periods be-
tween harvestS, and this, of course, presuppoSed that there
would be some central plant on a large enough basis of pro-
ducton to provide wide employment. In his coverage of the
Island the Senator perhaps looked in vain for a farm which
could be compared to a well run, self-supporting unit such
as are found on the mainland. This is because in the transi-
ton period the federal government, for example, might have
failed to see the handwriting on the wall and do something
about it.
IS HOPED that Senator Butler will again come to the
Islands, spend a little longer time, speak with more people,
of differing backgrounds and points of view and then modify
his finding. The fact that a certain amount of charcoal is i'm
ported from neighboring islands is not in and of itself the
factor which determines that our people lack initiative and
, 1951-03-15

dDlllty.
AS time passes & the young
er generation gets its oppor-
tunity to realize that here is a
veritable haven, greater eff
forts will be made to bring
these Islands to their rightful
place economically, politically
and socially, and with these
the respect which come with
independence in these fields.
The boys and girls, for exam
pie, who are exposed to the
All program will in time
come along to make better use
of their opportunities than
their forebearS.
