ed. "A good community realizes that such children must be
given a fair chance at life and does its best to provide for
their welfare, giving them an opportunity equal to that Of
more fortunate ones. It takes more time to remold a citizen
than to mold him.
AS a child drifts from in which he seems unwanted
$50 will he eventually drift from q community which neglects
him. Let our younger generation be building blocks of these
Virgin Islands. We can do as good a Job or perhaps a better
job than any generation that has gone before us-or any out
slider. How would it look if our leaders sit quietly by and
llet outsiders move in and completely dominate cur islands?
That would unquestionably lower our prestige. It can hap
Ipen and it will happen if we continue in the course we are
now travelling. Peace & frien dship do not mean submitting
without struggle to an outsider. "The people of the Virgin
Islands are very h~ospitable" That is what most of our visit
ors say. That does not signify that we must give up our
I~birthright to hold that name. Our elders should join with
us in helping to preserve our unique culture. When they
stand by and see our islands slipping from under our feet and
do nothing about it, outsiders resent the attempts of the
younger ones to prevent it.
Indifference to a situation does not help it. We must
face facts. Changes have been made-yes, many changes;
and many more will be made. / hope this will be considered
before it is concluded that the condition of the world today
is solely the result Of its younger generation. It is not. The
world today is the result of the problems and difficulties, the
Iconquests and failures and the contributions of every genera
ton from the creation Of our world down to the present day.
Die both the older and younger people of the Virgin Islands
bear this thought seriously in mind, we must succeed in max
ling the Virgin Islands a place that coming generations will
he proud to call their heritage.

SALUTATORY
delivered by Jean Edney at Commencement Exercises Of
the Chistiansted High School
concluded from yesterdays issue

Based on the ideals Of our f~orefathers, democratic COM
munities exist for the benefit of their members. Guarantee
of personal and property protection, for example, is one FAC
tor that increases satisfaction with life and makes progress
for the individual and the group. Recreation is another fac
tor that every community should consider, for it can be very
effective in transforming us young people, sadly lacking IN
group spirit, into one group welded together in common IN
terest. Leisure should be used to good advantage. Dance
Halls and night clubs offer us little that is constructive, but
we 90 there because we meet our friends and find some
amusement. In itself dancing is not harmful There are many
kinds of dances that are ideal for developing grace, poise,
muscular control, a sense of rhythm and an appreciation OF
the poetry of motion. There is no reason why high-minded,
rightthinking young men and women should withhold
themselves from teen-age parties, barn dances or other or
gained activities, where proper dress participants, and
choice of refreshments are carefully planned. Activities OF
this type serve to arouse within us the feeling of hospitality
and good will. 1t is the function of the home, the school and
the community to provide adequate means OF recreation for
their members. We young people have a corresponding res
possibility to prove to the older ones that we are deserving
Of what they have given us and to strive earnestly for COM
munity improvements that are lacking. Respect for others
and their property, progress in our education and partlclpa-
ton in community activities will help us to be assets to
the Virgin Islands, encouraging our elders to give us a
chance to prove ourselves. If we can see that they have con-
fidence in us. we can show them that changes serve good as
we'll as bad purposes. As students we should be assured that
the years we spend in school are spent for a worthwhile rea-.
SON; we must feel that there is a place in society for us. We
need to come in contact with the realities OF life and face
them courageously.
What opportunities do the Virgin Islands offer us? One
Of the chief concerns of Virgin Islands youth is a source OF
employment. We are challenged by a special type of work.
we put forth much effort and make many sacrifices to obtain
the necessary training and preparation tomeet its require
ments. We would feel satisfied and contented, therefore, if
on the completion of our preparation we are placed in jobs
where we can exercise our proficiency Attention should all
so be given to those of us who are handicapped physically,
mentally Or financially. These cases should never be neglect

Censnre For Whnm9

AT this moment of uncertainty as
to whether or not the U. S. Senate
is about to be recOnvened to con-
slider the report of the special Wat
kins committee and the censure of
Senator Joe Mccarthy, we should
like to recall our comment of the
first week of August-When the
committee was formed
"The plan is" we said, "fOr the
Senate to recOnVene when the group
has decided whether it thinks the
Mccarthy conduct 'unbecOming a
member of the U. S. Senate But
we wonder how the others can do
any campaigning until they know
whether Joe is a hero or a heel" "
And, we concluded: "Or they could
kick this hot potato around until
after election!"
We would not alter a word of this
commentary today. But we would
add that the developments of the
intervening weeks indicate that the
committee has Out-McCarthied Nc
Carthy in Objectionable methods"
that seem to form the basis of
Rnti-McCarthy charges. In COM
menting on the "wretched depOrt-
ment" of the Watkins committee
that announced so piously that it
would function in the best tradi-
tiOns of our courts of law, the
news-analysis publication, Human
Events, emphasizes the Importance
of Senatorial precedents in this
investigation, and says: "Yet, Wat
kins gavelled out the attempt of
McCarthy's counsel to enter eX-
amples of what Senators have done
in the past similar to actions Of the
Wisconsin man which have drawn
criticism. Thus, Watkins himself
several years ago signed a report
of a committee urging government
workers to come forward with evil
dence of disloyalty. Justice Black,
when head of a Senate Investigating
committee in the thirties, did not
bOggle at a War Department con-
fidential stamp. Senator Williams
of Delaware, whose work exposing
corruption in the Executive branch
has drawn wide praise, received
confidential reports. Yet, these in
stances were ruled out by the com
mittee on censure."
The committee questioned the
Senate paIiamentarian, Charles L.
Watkins on the legality of a sub
committee investigating Senator
McCarthy's financial affairs in 1852,
and refused to allow his lawyer
Edward Bennett Williams to cross
examine. And Senator Watkins told
reporters he did not expect the
committee to consider the letter Of
Alfred Kohlberg, regarded by the
pinkos as a One-man China lobby"

WASHINGTON LETTER
Legislator OR Salesman9 ;

10 Aa--A4AA Va la-AA+fAAAAA-AAp
When election season is at its
height, many a Congressman finds
that voters back home are less in-
terested in his stories about law
making than in his accounts Of how
he sold the products of his home
district.
Today a Congressman is as much
merchant as sOlOn; he helps a
drum manufacturer present a drum
to the Presidents grandson (as a
Massachusetts Representative did /;
he helps producers associations
from his area exploit free offer
ing on the menu of Senate or House
restaurant, of Florida strawberries
or Louisiana shrimp or Texas
grapefruit; or stages an exhibit of
tiny models of the industrial pro-
ducts Of his district, as Senator
Ferguson of Michigan has done.
The age of televisiOn has magni-
tive, William Harrison, forced the
push the wares of the home district
before the public-witness the
touching devotion to milk by a
Senator and a Governor, from two
widely-scattered dairy states. An en-
gaging case was the dramatic way
in which a Wyoming Representa-
tive. William Harrison, forced the
nations attention to his states
cheese industry fact which may
have aided his current effort to
rise to the Senate.
GeneaolOgy encourages this WyO-
ming Representative, whose grand
father was President Benjamin
Harrison from Ohio, and whose
great-great-grandfather was Presi-
dent (and GeneraD William Henry
Harrison from Virginia. For the
generals political mentor, Senator
Henry Clay, started the whole pro-
cess when he furnished the White
House with many barrels of
famed Kentucky potable, distilled
by his constituent. History has
nice eye for recalling the past in
present events.

The meeting, attended by 1900

switched from the Grange Hall al
most at the last moment and was
marked by a heated dispute at the
outset as to exactly what group or
organization was sponsoring the

The dispute revolved around
whether a local committee or the
recently organized Delaware Chap
ter, National Association for the

in charge.
While the meeting was in pro-

What Makes "PrOgress7 Tick?
Just 100 years ago, the clipper
ship Flying Cloud" broke a speed
record by sailing from New York
to San Francisco in SO days. Just
the other day, Captain Edward w.
Kenny, of the U. S. Air Force, few
from Edwards Air Force Base.
California to Dayton, o. in three
hours, minute and 56 seconds.
This, you might say is an example
of progress-even though many
people would still rather sail than
fly.
But the best example of progress
lies in the fact that we have i'm
the past century built a completely
new world for ourselves, in health,
in education, in living standards. in
leisure and the means of enjoying
it-all without losing our right to
sail or to fly as we choOse-or to
do anything else we like so long
as it doesn't interfere with the
right of somebody else to do like
wise.
We did this by stoutly maintain
ing the novel structure of govern
ment that our fOrebears drew up for
us in the Constitution; and guard
ing along with our political liber-
ties the system of free enterprise
in which, paradoxically, by working
for ourselves, we find ourselves
working for everybody else.
AS a reminder not only Of what
we have achieved, but Of how we
have done it, the more than two
million Americans who produce.
refine, transport and market our
oceans of petroleum products have
declared October 10 to 16 to be Oil
Progress Week. Their theme for
this years annual observance is
competition, and what it means
to the whole 100 million Of us whose
way Of life is so dependent on this
industry today.
Oil men would like to remind
those who might guess there are
a dozen or fifty oil companies in
the U. S. that there are something
over $4,000; that this American
industry that almost single-handed-
ly fueled and fabricated the mighty
allied war machine of World War
II represented 13 billion dollars in
nd
spent more than % billions since
that time in further expansion and
development.
Only competition can produce
such a mighty ferment all
to the end of giving us consumers
something better than the other
fellow has to offer, or making it
more convenient or more pleasant
to buy it. And it is a force co-equal
with the competition for our votes
by those who would represent us
in the State and Nation. The one
safeguards our progress. The other
guarantees our freedom.
Competition is far more than "the
life Of trade" It is the life Of this
nation, as we have always known It.
BY A VOTE OF 43-11 the UN
General Assembly passed the U. S.
resolution to postpone for another
year the decision on admitting Red
China. But before you throw your
hat in the air, consider that the
same delaying tactic succeeded last
wear bv a vote of 44-1O and
that this. to the Reds indicates pro-
gress in their relentless. unhurried,
untiring plan Of wearing down re-
sistance.

Bowles, in the longest address
Of the evening, again outlined the
aims of the NAAWP in its fight
for separation Of the races, but this
time hit hard at the U. S. Supreme
Court and its recent decision on
I segregation. He especially singled
out Justice Felix Frankfurter who.
he said, at one time received 81, 900
from the CIO, which organization
he aveTred was backed by the Ma
4 tiOnal Association for the Advance
ment Of COlored People. He told
his audience that none of the nine
men now on the bench ever had
been a judge before.
I He said the purpose of the Su-
preme Court is to interpret the law
and not legislate. However, he said.
when the Supreme Court goes into
the matter of issuing DEGREES, that
is making the law.
With reference to members of the
.. S. Congress, Bowles told his
audience that much of the fault for
the course the nation is taking lies
with them. Turning back to inte-
grafton, he said that Congressman
make beautiful speeches., on the
floors Of Congress stating that they
knew 20 years ago that this. Dre-
sumably integratiOn, was going to
happen. If they knew, why didn't
they tell us? he asked.
He also lashed out hard At the
press, singing out for special
criticism Bill Franks Frankly
Speaking" column. He referred to
Mr.. Frank as left winger'', who
wrote the editorial opinion in the
Wilmington papers.
He said that he wanted the Morn
ing News cOlumnist to know that
the NAAWP is never at any place
where there are white sheets'' or
where they "burn any crosses. He
added that the aim of the organiza-
ton is to fight the battle for seq
regation legally.
The press, along with the other
mass communications media were
criticized by various speakers for
what they termed unfair coverage.
Another speaker was Thomas
Dixon, who was introduced bv
BOwles as the national commander
OF the United American Veterans.
Dixon said that all of the inte-
grafton troubles started with the
United Nations. He said the United
States should not only withdraw
from the UN but the UN should
get out of the United States.
Joseph M. Danes Of Hartlv. na-
tional vice president of the NAAWP.
was also introduced and spoke at
several points during the program.
He reiterated a pledge made by the
NAAWP at previous meetings that
1t would present to each political
candidate of both parties a segre-
CATION pledge before the elections
He said the pledge would ask the
candidates to declare himself either
for or against segregation. Out
lining his background, Danes said
that he was 1850 graduate of the
University Of Delaware. He said
that while attending the university.

The sudden switch Of meeting
places jammed traffic in Laurel
for some time and cars were still
streaming into the meeting grounds
at least until $3.50 p. m. State police
troopers were assigned to direct
traffic to and from the meeting
area.
