Church Federation Camping Program
Offers Daily Summer Vacation

Bugs and leaves have become
just as familiar at the Northwest
Settlement House as the children
who meet there each day for then
church day camp trips.
Each morning the children gath
er at the settlement house to meet
the taxi drivers who take them to
Rock Greek Park. The cab ride
the day In the park and the fresh
air have already made a change
In children who would ordinarily
spend their summer playing in
dirty streets and alleys.
The program has been made
possible by the Woman's Depart
ment of the Washington Fedora
ton Of Churches. Realizing the
imposSibility of many welfare
agencies to send their charges to
any regular camp because of lack
of funds, the Women's Department
until recently known as the
Washington Council of Church
Women-set aside funds to be
used in the project. Each child
has two-week period of camping
There is a double purpose be-
hind the church day camp" pro-
gram Of the federation. One gives
the children an opportunity to de-
velop into cooperative citizens in
a Christian community and
teaches them a new feeling of
fellowship and cooperation. The
other keeps them in the open with
a supervised program and a
regulated diet.
OF course, the bugs, leaves and
sun come into the picture also.
For many Of the campers finding
lady-bug is the excitement of
the month-they never saw one
before. They have never been to-
a camp before because their par
entS cannot afford the two pairs
OF shoes usually required.

But each day the children fare
forth to Rock Greek Park all to-
Igether-the division Is operating
five day camps this summer-and
return to their homes with new
stories to tell and new experiences
to remember.
VitaminS are becoming so i'm :
portant to the children that their
mothers can't help but listen, and
in many homes that makes big
difference between health and
malnutrition. The children have
fruit and milk each day-prc-
vided by the council fund. Some
children who need it are con-
tinued for more than the aver
age two weeks-for example, the
four children of a mother who
has recently returned from Glenn
Dale Sanatorium.
After they reach the camp site,
there is a council meeting where
camp rules are explained. Camp
duties are assigned in rotation
and the day begins with three
things quite evident-each child
is an individual. almost every
child is eager to develop some
skill and almost each one is eager
to cooperate.
Hiking with naturalists from
the National Park Service, sing
ing, games and hand-craft are
a part of each days program.
For the kids who don't have
two pair of shoes, it adds UP to
the thrill of their lives.

DeFEBIO HEARING
IN JUVENILE COURT
MORNING OF MAY 10

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank ]. DeFebio
and eight witnesses appeared be-
fore Juvenile Court Judge C. S.
Meekins in the county clerks of
fee last Friday at 10 am. for a
hearing upon complaint charg-
ing Frank DeFebio with caring i'm
properly for three minor children
and failure to enroll them in the
public schools. Mr.. DeFebio was
brought here from Albemarle Gen.
eral Hospital for the hearing,
At the outset, Judge Meekins
made it clear to all that DISPOSE
ton of the complaint would not be
made on Friday. He said he would
hear testimony from the DeFebio
children and give a decision as to
whether they would be left in the
care of their parents or be placed
in an institution for children, af-
ter the recorders court trial of the
father in Manteo on Tuesday of
this week. II will not make de-
cision until the recorders court
acts on your matter" Mr.. Meekins
explained.
Mr.. DeFebio, before the first
witness was called, asked whether
it was possible for some sort of
agreement to be reached before
the hearing got under way. GAS
close as was to DEATH" he said,
II saw how unnecessary it was to
have a grudge against anyone. I'll
feel that way no matter how it
comes out"

Thomas ]. King of Duck said he
had seen members of the family
only rarely, but had once met the
father and the boys on cold day
Wien it SCENE to him that they
weren't warmly G;essed. When he
remarked that it wos cold weather
fer the boys to he out, Mr.. DeFehio
replied, "No, l want to make men
Of Them" King said. "The en-
dren were mighty healthy look
ing" Mr.. King concluded.
Mrs. DeFebio asked permission
to read a long statement she had
prepared, because, she said, 81 ex-
pected to be too nervous to speak"
extemporaneously. When she had
concluded her outline of the case
since its beginning, Judge Meek
ms complimented her on the qusl-
ity of the summation.
Court was then adjourned until
after the Tuesday trial.

The Petition

Martin Kellogg, county solicitor,
first read the petition, signed by
Mrs. T, S. Meekins, Jr., county
welfare officer. The petition assert
ed that Mr.. DeFebio was shiftIess:
had no apparent occupations; that
he provided an inadequate home
"unfi. for human habitatiou;" that
he forced the children to gather
fuel and comb the beach for food;
that Mrs. DeFebio was much abb
sent from the home; that she had
abandoned the children in the
courtroom here after her husband
first court appearance last De-
cember; that the living conditions
for the children were improper
and deplorable."
Mrs. DeF'eDio was granted per-
mission to read the summons she
had received to appear for the
hearing. l. was an ordinary "show
cause" summons.
Testimony
DR.. w. W. Johnston, district
health officer testified first. In re-
spouse to Mr.. Kellogg's questions,
the doctor said that he had exam,
ined the children twice and that
"They appeared to be normal chill
dren." On April II and April is,
when he saw them, "Thei: hair
was long and unkempt: their
clothes were in fair condition. They
appeared to be children not cared
for properly"
Mrs. DeFebio asked, "Dr. john
ston, have you ever heard of our
children being ill.," and asked fur
ther whether he had heard of the
children's having any emotional
problems while living with their
mother and father. DIR. Johnston
replied, NO." in both cases.
Mrs. Meekins, welfare officer,
testified that she had first seen the
DeFebios on March z, when, &C
companied by Sheriff Frank Ca
hoon, she interview them at their
home where she had gone to inves-
tigate the report from school au-
thorities that the children were not
being sent to school. Mrs. Meek
ms was at that time a welfare
dept. case worker. Mrs. DeFebio
told her, Mrs. Meekins said, that
they had no intention of putting
the children in school. In Mrs.
Meekins' opinion the children were
improperly dressed for the cool
day; she did not see fire in the
building and found the room in
which she was received cold. She
said that Mrs. DeFebio told her
that she'd come to wait for the
trial, and that the fanily's funds
and food were exhausted. The
children's chair was unkempt, skin
the welfare officer told
the judge. "Mrs. DeFebio conduct
ed the interview" Mrs. Meekins
said. "Mr. DeFebio more than once
asked her to hear me out"
In answer to Mrs. DeFebio's
questions, Mrs. Meekins said that,
it was true that Mr.. Davis, then
welfare officer, had sent letter to
the DeFebios saying that action
on their case would be taken with
in five days. (Mrs. DeFebio assert
ed that she had come to their
home from her job in Washington
within the five-day period, and that
it was more than a month after
the receipt of the letter before the
case worker and sheriff arrived for
the interview.) Mrs. Meekins said
that she saw no obvious physical
in the children and
that ''They are we'll hammered and
children"

people, something nice. All the

TACT are just the kind of people
one is glad to know. We enjoyed
Miss Mullen and Mrs. Alexander
very much and we are sorry they
come so seldom.

However, Mr.. Gordon M.
Skeoch, another native, has been
named to the post. Since VICORP
is important to the Virgin Islands,
St. Croix in particular, it might
be a good idea to cooperate with
the new president.
Congressman Crawford a d,
with a touch Of sarcasm, that he
knew of no native who could run
the Corporation. Thus, if Mr..
Skeoch should fail the blame
would be on Mr.. Chapman and
his Board; should he succeed
credit would naturally go to ma
tive ability.

Because, like the Editor, I have
been particularly anxious to see
real UNITY between Virgin Is
landers on the mainland and
those at home, some statements
made recently by Mr.. Ashley Tot
ten in connection with the new
VICORP president was unfortu-
nate.
Not only was magnifying the
racial aspect to be regretted but
other statements were totally in
correct. For example: Mr.. Skeoch
was said to be a decendent Of
Irish "Orangemen," a group with
a long record of hatred and OPP
position to Negroes, Jews and
Catholics, etc.
The facts: Mr.. Skeoch's parents
are Of Scotch decent; his mother
and father were born in St. Croix;
he, too, was born here. He is an
Episcopalian; his wife is a Catho-
lie; his children all attend the
ST. Patrick's Catholic School.
In addition: he was elected in
1948 as First Member from the
Frederiksted Country District
the handful Of white votes
meant nothing. He lost his seat
when he voted against the anti
discrimination law.

1t was unfortunate that MI.
Axel Schade was side-tracked and
virtually ousted from the Virgin
Islands Corporation by the Board
of Directors, despite his many
years of experience, in addition
to the fact that he was vice-pre-
sident at the time and, as many
persons felt, should have been
elevated. To us it was a matter Of
principle.
