Commission, for providing oppor-
tunltles for young people to ac-
qulre vocational training in
Puerto Rico is now in full swing
Although from day to day it NAV
appear that there is little change.
actually the Commission, through
these and other accomplishments
IS contributing continually and
substantially to the betterment of
the peoples of the area. We hope,
and1 am certain l can speak for
the other National Sections. that
there will be greater accomplish
ments by the Commission in the
years Immediately ahead.
One of the fields of activity of
the Commission which offers
great promise for the future is
that of housing. 1t will be recalled
that a project for aided-self-help
housing was initiated by a resolu-
ton adopted by the Commission
at its last meeting, which support
ed the principle of aided-self-help
housing and authorized the Secre-
tary General to approach the
Technical Cooperation Administra
ton to request assistance in this
field. All Member Governments
now have given their concurrence
to this project. It gives me great
pleasure to inform you that this
project has been approved under
the Point Four Program. Approx
mately $4,000 have been allotted
for the two-year period, and it is
hoped that the project will be
under way by January l, 1852.
The project provides for two
specialists to be assigned to the
Commission to assist the local
governments. One man will be a
building materials specialist
whose job will be to study local
materials resources. The other
specialist will be an authority in
the field of organization and fl
nance of aided-self-help housing.
The project also includes an on
the-job training program. This
will help local governments to
develop the necessary skilled staff
to continue housing programs
when the assistance of the two
specialists is no longer available
The Secretary General will be
responsible for coordinating the
work of the specialists. He a7-o
will handle administrative SER
vices and liaison with the local

ADDRESS
of Mr.. Ward M. Canaday,
US. Co-Chairman at open
ing of the Caribbean Com
mission Thirteenth Meetinu.
MI. Governor, Ladies and
Gentlemen
AS Chairman of the Thirteenth
Meeting of the Caribbean Com
mission, / should like to express
the appreciation of all my fellow
Commissioners to Governor de
Castro for his richly informative
and gracious welcome to these
beautiful islands in which we are
to meet during the present week.
AS an old-time inhabitant and
lover of st. Croix, l should like to
add my own good wishes to you
all for a happy week of collabora-
ton and work amid the sunshine
and cool breezes of St. Croix,
which hope you will retain in
your memory as one of the most
beautiful and hospitable of all our
West Indian islands.
Apart from the fact that this is
the first time an international or
ganization has met in the island
of st. Croix, this meeting is i'm
portant because it marks the
nth anniversary of the Caribbean
Commission. This is a month of
important anniversaries. On Octo-
Der "a the free nations of the
woodland this includes the Gov
ernments of the Caribbean-cele-
DRAFTED the sixth anniversary of
the founding of the United Ma
tons. One great difference exists
between these anniversaries. The
United Nations is dealing with
problems which, if not solved,
will lead to untold suffering,
while we friendly allies in the Ca
ribbean are carrying on our work
IN one of the most peaceful areas
of the world. This fifth anniver-
sary of the Commission marks a
period of steady progress. | shall
not dwell in detail upon the ac-
complishments of the Commission.
1t has helped to break down $50
lationism particularly by bringing
peoples of the Caribbean together
at the West Indian Conferences.
1t has made basic economic
studies of the agricultural and in
dustrial fields. Moreover, the
project, initiated through the

governments.

This project is only one of the
items on the heavy agenda which
we have before us for the meet
ing. In this connection, it has been
pointed out from time to time by
Members that long hours, and
even days, have been devoted to
the discussion of relatively minor
precedural questions. The result
IS that matters of high substantive
Importance have sometimes been
relegated to the end Of our dis
cussions, and on some occasions
have not been thoroughly con-
sidered by the Commission. l
should like to make an earnest
plea therefore, to spped up action
and concentrate on substance
rather than procedure. At this
meeting it has been suggested
again that a number of important
items be allocated to three COM
mitees. Experience has shown that
this plan saves a great deal of
time in the plenary sessions of the
Commission without in any way
Infringing on the right of all Com
mlssioners to express their views
openly and fully in the Commits
sion itself. 1t is hoped that these
Committees will begin work i'm
medlately, SO that the next full
session of the Commission may be
held on Wednesday afternoon.
A cordial Invitation is extended
to all of you to attend this and
subsequent full meetings.
At this point I should like to
say a word about a good friend of
all of us and a good friend of all
OF you in the Virgin Islands. I re-
fer to the Honorable Lawrence w.
Cramer, who has just concluded
his term as first Secretary General
of the Commission. On behalf Of
myself and my fellow Commits
sioners in the United States Sec
ton | want to pay tribute to him
for his tireless, efficient and re
sourceful service to the Commits
sion and the constructive results
of his devotion to the peoples of
this area.
now draw the attention of my
fellow Commissioners to certain
items of the agenda of special i'm
portance to the work Of the Com
mission and to the interest of the
Caribbean area as a whole. This
October meeting, as you know. is
the one in which we discuss the
budget. The viewpoint &C the
United States Section l believe
to be fortnight and clear. w be
lieve that every effort shou7l be
made for reasonable economy in
all aspects of the Commissions
work, but it would, be false eco
nomy, | am sure you will all
agree, to fail to carry out the eff
fective development Of substan-
tive projects which will be of help
to individual territories and to the
Caribbean region. We are prapar-
ed to submit to the committee dis
cussing the budget some
suggestions which we hope will
be constructive. It is our earnest
hope that all national sections will
cooperate in adopting a budget
which will take into account the
real needs of the area. Those of us
who have been present at West
indian Conferences are fully aware
that to an ever-increasing degree
the eyes of thinking people in the
area are upon the Commission.
