We certainly have a great
and a grave responsibility to
see that these students are
well prepared for their life
work. Good preparation can
be given them only by our
having adequate school build
ings, adequate equipment in
such buildings, and a we'll
rounded program administer
ed by a well-trained staff Of
teachers and with competent
supervision. We are well on
the way to having new school
buildings in all the islands.
The maintenance of a trained
staff must necessarily depend
upon our ability to pay sala-
ries commensurate with their
training and experience. We
hope that our new pay plan
may be the first step in this
direction. I must warn our
people, however, that this is
only the commencement. New
and modern plants will need
more personnel and better
equipped personnel too.
In this connection, / cannot
allow to pass without notice a
statement made by one Of our
newer residents at the recent
Council tax hearings in Saint
Thomas that our towns are
only villages and that the
United States should not be
building here new hospitals,
new schools and new housing
projects. We must thank Al
mighty God that the Congress,
the Department of the Interior
and our legislatures and our
government officials do not
share this type Of u~nsympathe-
tic approach to our insular
problems. Our people have no
hesitancy in assuming the re-
sponsibilities of America n
citizenship. Despite our small
ness in size and population,
we are in due proportion fur

nishing our fair quota of our
youth to the armed services.
We have here an excellent, per
haps unsurpassed record Of the
lack of subversive elements in
our communities. We are en-
titled, therefore, to the same
privileges of American citizen
ship which our brothers and
sisters in continental United
States and in other territories
and possessions enjoy. We re-
fuse to accept such maligning
statements. They do no repre-
sent, I am sure, the solid and
progressive thinking Of the
great majority of our newer

Social Security Week
This week has been designat-
ed Social Security Week in the
Virgin Islands. A generous
national government has pro-
vided social security protec-
|tion for Virgin Islanders as for
all other American citizens!
During the past Is months
over 500 commercial and do
mestic employers and over
$500 employees and self-em-
ployed persons have registered
under the Old Age and Survi-
Ivors' Insurance provisions of
the Social Security Act. These
persons are acquiring the fu-
ture right to receive life pen
sions upon reaching the age of
65, or in case Of death their
survivors may be entitled to-
lumpsum death benefits and
monthly family allowances.
Having been covered for one
and a half years, all workers
who have reached the age Of
65 and who will no longer earn
more than $4,000 per month
are eligible for benefits and
should make application there
for to the local representative
of the Social Security Admin
istration, Mr.. Stewart Martin.

Power Facilities

Last week a significant for
ward step was taken when the
Virgin Islands Corporation
took over all the electric light
and power facilities Of the st.
Croix Power Authority. This
act was the elimination of two
years of efforts to provide
single ownership of and re-
sponsibility for operation and
production Of electric power
for the people Of ST. Croix.
The immediate gain for the
people of st. Croix is a lower
rate for consumers in the
towns. to become effective on
the first of July. Unified opera
ton Of the facilities will ma
turally provide more economi-
cal management. The public
funds of St. Croix from which
some $14O,OOO.O0 had been Dor
rowed for the St. Croix Power
Authority will be reimbursed
Immediately III t h e Il e I
amount Of the payment from
the Virgin Islands Corporation
Of $1O9, 100000 and the balance
will be paid off by a 1919 sur
charge on town consumer bills.
We should be grateful to a
generous national government
for furthering this proposal
and to Congress for providing
the funds.
Let US now hope and pray
that we shall have a similar
development in st. Thomas in
the not too distant future. You
will recall that we have asked

Some people have the idea that a
Porcupine can shoot its quilts, but
that isn't true. While the animal
uses its bristles to drive away en-
emies, it doesn't send the weapons
winging through the air.
Instead a Porcupine under at
tack arches its back, raises its
quilts, and awaits the foe. At the
moment its body is touched, the
Porcupine swings its broad tail and
swats its opponent. The singing
blow leaves a patch of quilts stuck
in the enemy's flesh.
The stiff, slender spines are hard
to remove, too. Covered with sharp
barbs, like the ends of fishhooks,
they sink in and cling to the flesh
which they stab An animal
wounded in a fight with Porcu-
pine may try for days, without
success, to get rid of the quilts.
The Porcupine is lucky to have
this unusual way of defending it
self, says the National Wildlife
Federation, for it is a slow, stupid
animal It cannot move rapidly,
either on the ground or in trees.
If it did not have barbed quilts, it
would be an easy victim of noun
tain lions, bobcats, and other prey
ing animals
While it does not run from a

fight, the Porcupine tries to keep
to itself. It likes the life of a her
nit. and does not even seek the
company of other Porcupines.
It may prowl by day or by night,
but usually it spends most of the
daylight hours in its shelter. It's
den may be in a cave beneath a
large rock or a pile of brush, or in
a hollow log.
When it comes out of its hiding
place, the Porcupine roams the
woodlands in search of food. 1t
eats some fruit and vegetables, but
it is most fond of bark, twigs, buds,
and leaves. The worst thing it
does is to feast too long in one
place. Many a tree has died be-
cause a Porcupine has chewed
away the bark in a circle around
the trunk.
When cold weather comes, Pore
upines make preparations to raise
their families. In each den, one
baby Porcupine is born in the late
winter. 1t is abodt eleven inches
long and weighs slightly more than
a pound, but it is strong enough to
waddle in six hours and to climb
when it is two days old. Right
from the start it has set of sharp
quilts.
Though they are soon taking
care of themselves, the young do
not reach full size until they are
about three years old. BY that age
they are three feet long, with six
inch tails, and they weigh between
fifteen and twenty pounds. Their
quills are yelloNish white, mixed
with black hairs, and their front
teeth are bright orange.
