The following is the additional statement given by Harry

These are the "few words which i prepared, as Admins

clearly demonstrated a great lesson to which no attention.
will be. paid and to which any reference will be unpopular.
There is evidenced here the marvellous accomplishments OF
the thousand original native residents of ST. Croix who built
here a practical and artistic culture with nothing to work
bone and fibre. With these and from these they fashioned all
of their lives requirements, all that you see here and a hum
dred times more, still buried in their old village sites.
These early Crucians lived on what they caught in the sea,
or picked from the tree, or dug from the earth, or raised on

"But they had no WPA, R NYA; no soil conservation,

lions, grants-in-aid, or vocational subsidy; no school lunches;
no free milk and potatoes, no prunes or eggs; no prenatal
clinics or venereal disease clinics, or vocational guidance; and
not even a nutritionist, psychologist, or psychiatrist. Think
of that.
"How much and what they did with SO little, contrasts to
our GREAT shame with how little and what we do with SO
much. The transition from their self-reiance and ~independ-

all the above-plus i~ukeboxes, v~ocalists, and 43 rum shops is

Date Set For
HodoSsoh Donor
Dinner

The Polk County Chapter Of
EIadassah will hold their Annual
Donor Dinner on Wednesday eve
ming. February "a. at the Florida
Southern College Commons.
This affair is a MUST for every
Jewish man and woman in Polk
County, interested in the welfare
and survival of the State Of Is
'rael.
HADASSAH has played a very
important role, throughout the
years in laying a foundation for
a Jewish State, as well as over
coming the prejudice Of our State
Department and securing the
support of Jewish isolationists.
Today Hadassah women are
using their influence in Washing
ton once again, to save our Jew
ish State and prevent it from be-
coming political Football in
an effort to appease the Arab
countries.
It is not only the privilege, but
also the duty of every Jewish
woman in this community to be-
come affiliated with and add her
name to the role Hadassah is
playing in World History.
We hope that every Jewish
man and woman in the commu-
nifty will be present at our Donor
Dinner as an assurance to Hadas-
sab that our community is stand
ing firmly behind the State of
Israel.
