ST. Croir Dountes Money, Gift
In Admiration of Steel Band

Contributions to the mem
bers of the Antigua Steel
Band during last nights pro-
gram on the Christiansted
Wharf, passed the $3.50. mark.
Contributions are still be-
ing sent to the AVIS Office up
to the time Of their departure,
ODE forwarded to the Captain
to help defray their expenses.
In the midst of the pro-
gram several members
from the audience urged
that a collection be taken up
after Canute Brodhurst ex-
planned that the men had come
all the way from Antigua and
to do so they had to hire a
boat, which in itself was cost
ly. He said that they were not
leaving with their pockets
filled with money despite the
fact they have proved them
selves to be outstanding ar
/, lists. The reason is that when
they arrived everybody doubt
ed they could really make
music Of the type that would
have held anyone spellbound.
Thus they were discovered
late, when they had to leave
for home, and each day vast
costly.
AS a matter of fact the
money they received would
barely pay for transportation

Urges Teacher Pay
Raise and Increase
In Construction Fund

Five hundred dollar pay raises for
school teachers, bigger subsidies for
/ school construction and more state
aid for county library systems are
part Of program proposed by Mary
land legislators by DR.. Thomas G..
Pullen, state superintendent of
schools.
The cost was set at approximately
$45, 900, 600 of which nearly $4,000
would recur annually in the budget.
Dir. Pullen presented the program
to Governor McKeldin Saturday with
the statement that school construction
was urgently required because of
expanding enrolment The $500
yearly raises for teachers are needed,
he said, to head off what could be-
come an exodus of teachers of "enor-
nous proportions" to better-paying
jobs.
A l5-year $35, 100000 bond issue
for school construction is the major
item Of the program. 1t would pro-
vide outright grants to county and
city school construction funds at the
rate of 500 per pupil.
Also proposed is an increase from
the present SO per pupil to SIS as
the maximum on the incentive fund
for school construction. DR.. Pullen
estimated the cost to the state would
be about $1,775,OOO annually
The Department of Education
figured the proposed teachers pay
raises would add up to S7,300,000
year In addition the state would be
required to contribute $668,000 more
into the retirement fund. A total of
100000 annually now and 100000 a
year eventually would be expended
under the proposed library program
which calls for an added subsidy of
40 cents per person in each area of
county wide library system.
The school construction is urgent,
DR.. Pullen said. He pointed out that
enrolment d increased 44,030

by and large, opinions in Congress
and out seem to be predominantly IN
favor of the thesis that the security
Of the United States is inseparably
connected with that of Europe and
that to refuse and IN the form of
ground troops to the countries OF
Western Europe to repel invasion
would be against the best interests
of the United States.
In the conviction that 1t would be
most unwise to permit Russia to take
over all Western Europe, as all au-
thorities agree could be done unless
adequate United States aid is forth
coming | declared in an address on
the Senate Floor today that, ut IS
incumbent upon this nation to reaf-
firm allegiance to the doctrine of col
lcctive security We must not aban-
don Europe. Not only would such a
course mean the reputation of our
pledges and the loss Of the great mill
tary and economical investment al
ready made but II would represent an
open invitation to Moscow to strike
whenever the time appears propitious.
"Furthermore it is not sufficient
to conclude that we can fulfill our OBJ
icctives alone by air and sea power.
History and experience, not only OF
past decades but contemporaneouSly
have demonstrated that in addition to
these two mighty forces there is a
third essential, namely, ground troops
OF infantry and artillery.

To Investigate Newsprint Shortage


Hearings, beginning February 10,
have been scheduled by our Senate
Select Committee ON Small Business
to delve into the shortage of news
print supply encountered by weekles,
semi-weekles and daily publications.
As the basic source of information on
national and world events to rural
and farming sections of the country
is is essential, we believe, that these
papers and publications be enabled to
secure the necessary supplies to in
sure continued publication.
Because many reports of scarcity
of critical materials, the Senate EX-
penditmes Committee, of which am
member, has undertaken to examine
the methods and procedures followed
by the General Services Administra-
ton, in order to find out whether ade-
quate measures are being taken to
assemble and to safeguard materials
stockpiled for use in defense produc-
ton.
At the present time, there are some
- items which have been determined
to be strategic or critical and one
purpose Of the Committee is to insure
rotation of use of such items where
there is danger Of spoiage.

Custer Could
 Please Russians

A former chief of staff of the German Army, Heinz Guderian said the custer could make the Russians happy. There was no inn mediate comment from So- viet Russia, but western diplomats in Moscow expressed belief the chances for a Korean peace set clement was increased.
 And in Formosa, Chiang Kai- Shek's stronghold, officials saw the action as a stunning blow. MacArthurthur was their leading advocate of US. aid for striking back against Red China.
 At the United Nations head quarters, South Korean spokes- men made no public comment, but left no doubt in private con- verSations that they were unhap- py. Most of the official reaction at the JUN. was that this was a United States matter, since the leadership of the unified com mand in Korea had been left to Washington. Nonetheless, some of the JUN. delegations could not disguise their satisfaction at the action taken.
 There was similar reaction from India, which has sought to be a go-between in negotiations with Peiping. Officials at New Delhi expressed belief the way now was open to a renewal of diplomatic efforts to endthe war, despite the fact the Red Chinese have de- buffed JUN. efforts.
