Cdrib. Commission
TO Sponsor Aided-Self
H~elpHousing Worksp

JAMAICA 49, The Carib-
bean Commission recently de-
cided to sponsor an aided-self-
help housing workshop during
the latter half of next year in
Puerto Rico, as "a fitting con-
clusion" to the work being
done in the Caribbean by the
two aided self-help housing
experts assigned to the Com
mission by the Technical Co
operation Administration.
The proposed workshop, the
Commission feels, would serve
a tWo-fold purpose. First, it
should bring together the Of
fcials in the territories who
are responsible for formulat-
ing policy and directing such
housing schemes, These off
Gals would meet for about
three days to discuss the over
all housing situation as a back
ground to the aided-self-help
approach.
Second, it would bring to-
gether field workers W b 8
would not only be present
during the discussions re-
ferred to, but would remain on
for two weeks for much raro
detailed discussions on aided
self-help problems, as well as
for actual training in aided
self-heln techniques.

what He wants us to do, / think
there would come back to us a
brief sentence, "Be a Christian. In
fact if we study Gods word for
our lives, we find written on every
page it seems, in one way or other,
BE a Christian.
One of the greatest dangers and
greatest hinderance of the church
is the boring from within of these
who are not, and will not be Christ
ians in the fullest sense of the
word. Being a Christian means be-
ing our Brothers Keepers. The
sins of envy, malice, hatred, lying
and all others are excluded FRONT
"the Life that's hid with Christ in
God. Being Christian means be-
ing living witness to the saving
and keeping power of Jesus Christ
Being a Christian means laying all
on the altar as a living sacrifice
wholly acceptable to God which is
our reasonable service.

RED CROSS MONTH

The Red Cross is the oldest and Historically the most dis
tinguished organization representing International action in
relieving human suffering. The American Red Cross, founded
seventy years ago, has been the largest factor in this inter-
national effort by carrying relief in every major disaster to
every quarter Of the world.
The need for Red Cross relief wasneYer more compelling
than at this present widespread emergencYyAt home the or
ganization is also facing Unprecedented peace-time demands
upon its resources.
The people of the Virgin Islands have realized the value
Of the Red Cross because of the splendid assistance received
during times Of distress ia the past, as well as the assurance
Of ready help which have been afforded at the times the Is
lands have been exposed to natural catastrophes. In reciprocal
ton, the people Of the Virgin Islands have given loyalty and
generously to the support Of this national organization.
The President Of the United States, as head Of the Amer
can Red Cross. has designated the month Of March 1852 as
RED CROSS MONTE, and has urged every citizen to res
pond As generously as possible to this humanitarian cause.
WHEREFORE, ], MORRIS +. DE CASTRO, Governor
