NIcOSIA, Cyprus, July IA
tP.-A round-the-clock curfew
was clamped on Cyprus today
TO halt mounting communal
warfare between Greek and
Turkish Cypriots. Terror grip
ped the island.
The British governor. Sir
Hugh Foot. ordered ell persons
to stay in their homes until
further notice except civil
servants and essential public
workers. II was the most
drastic security move since the
shootings. bombings. ambushes
land riots began on this Medi-
terranean island three years
ago. EW
A government spokesman
said district security commit
tees would arrange for the
townspeople to get food, prob
ably through lifting the curfew
at specified times for shopping.
He insisted the government did
not intend to starve the
Cypriots into submission.
The Greeks and Turks here
have been fighting each other
since June 3, ever since the
word got out that the new
British plan for the island
would not satisfy the Greek ma
ljority's desire to unite with
Greece or the Turk demands
Ito partition the island to pro-
tect their rights.
EOKA Back on Warpath
The Turks took the initial
initiative in the communal at
tacks, But last week EOKA, the
Greek underground terrorist or
ganization which had been gen.
orally quiet for months, an
nounced it would take the war
path against the Turkish
CypriotS.
There was rising tide of
Greek attacks on the Turks and
lof Turkish retaliation. Three
Greeks and five Turks died yes
terday, bringing tthe toll in
the last five weeks to 81 Greek
Cypriots and 20 Turkish. -Four
Greek stores were burned out
and the chapel of st. Mamas
in Limassol. containing the is
lands finest wood carvings, was
badly damaged by fire.
Two British soldiers also
were killed in a mountain
hunt for EOKA fighters but
this was an accident. An
other soldiers automatic weap-
on went of.
Ihe attackers ignored an
unprecedented joint appeal for
peace issued by foot and the
head of the Greek and Turkish
Cypriot communities. Nicosia
Mayor Themistocles Dervis and
DR.. Frazil Kutchuk.
Sir Hugh also met with
Greek and Turkish Cypriot
delegations today to discuss
new security measures.

The story opens aboard a

guilty Of criminal negligence
by a Coast Guard jury and
then comes before a Federal

Water Gut Area in Christian
sted and 81 a two-block area
known as the Lagoon Area in
Frederiksted. This is not a re-
quest for approval of sites for

a request for approval to ap-

used for the purpose Of study

that the work OF the Virgin Is

TEXT OF GOV. MERWIN'S ADDRESS TO

President and Honorable Members of the Legislature
of the Virgin Islands of the United States:
As I call you into special session for the first meeting Of
the Legislature since ] have been Governor Of the Virgin Is
lands / want you to know how much | appreciate your CO.
operative attitude when I advised YOU that / felt there was

AS | call you into special

lands / want you to know no
operative attitude when | adv
need for this Special Session. Each
Of yoLagreed to the Special
Session, and each indicated a
desire to cooperate so as to get
the business of this Special
Session done as quickly but as
well as possible. I appreciate
and thank you for your splen-
did cooperation in this regard.
On thOcall and the agenda
for this Special Session there
are eight items each of which
is most important, and each OF
which is of a greater or lesser
emergency nature. Three OF
the items have to do with Ur-
ban Renewal and Public Hous-
ing. The balance deal with
subjects important to Govern
mental Employees, public
works activities and improv-
ing governmental operations.
So that you may know the
reasons for my placing these
particular items on the agenda
for this Special Session I shall
briefly discuss them item by
item.
First is the item, approval
Of Resolution pertaining to
Survey and Planning Applica-
tons for Urban Renewal Pro-
grams" The Virgin Islands
Housing and Redevelopment
Authority has received letters
and telephone calls from the
Regional Counsel Of the Hous-
ing and Home Finance Agency
in San Juan relative to the
Survey and Planning Applica-
ton which it has prepared and
proposes to submit to the Ur-
Ian Renewal Administration
for approval. The Federal pro-
cedure requires that all Sur
vey and Planning applications
must be accompanied by Reso-
buttons adopted by the Legis-
lature approving the Applica-
tons. The applications in
question cover az the Bar

from the Civil Aeronautics Adj
ministration for Airport purposes.
It is expected that the 100000
available from this source will be
expended on the st. Thomas Air
port provided the CAA will APP
prove the use of larger planes on
the improved runway. In any
event we shall be in a position to
claim the 100000 from the CAA
cor the Fiscal Year 1859.
Essential Public Works Programs
An orderly n d carefully
planned program developed under
the able guidance OF Coordinator
William I. Seeley, has resulted in
rapid progress in the field Of COM
munity development under the
double Il" program.
More projects are in final plan
ming stages or actually in progress
than ever before.
A ten-year public Improvement
program Of far-reaching signifi-
canoe has been developed within
the scope Of future financial
ability. This is probably one Of the
most worthwhile developments in
the public works field in the his
tory Of the Territory and will do
much to promote a healthy econo-
mic future for the islands.
PUBLIC SAFETY
Traffic The traffic problems
throughout the Virgin Islands, and
particularly st. Thomas, are caus-
ing the Department great concern
due to the ever-increasing num-
Der of motor vehicles being
brought into the island.
"A recent survey made by the
Acting Commissioner of Public
Safety reveals that during the
rush hours Of the day pedestrians
are exposed to unsafe conditions
when crossing streets. AS a result,
the Department has instituted a
program o If creating Gross
Walks"
Communications For many
years the need has been felt for
better communication throughout
the Virgin Islands linking the

various divisions Of the Depart
ment of Public Safety on each is

our motor cars are equipped with
two-way radios, This has resulted
in our ability to communicate
within each island and through
out the Virgin Islands under
favorable conditions.
