Dear Mr.. President:
The Citizens Advisory Commission on Children and
Youth has completed a study Of all the laws governing
children and youth in the Virgin Islands. This study was
a very thorough study and covered a period of three
months.
Many people of the Virgin Islands (St. Croix, st.
John, and, st. Thomasl have, from time to time, informed
the Commission of the need for changes and also addi-
tional legislation concerning laws governing children and
youth. Various groups and persons in the communities of
the islands, such as The ST. Thomas Women's League,
school teachers, lawyers, parents, and other persons
working with children and youth, have met with
the Commission offering their services and advice for
better laws governing our children and youth. The mem
bers1of the Commission have held special meetings in st.
Croix and st. Thomas with the citizens of the islands
seeking their advice and information as to what should
be done with the laws governing children and youth.
After weeks Of study and meetings The Citizens Adj
visory Commission on Children and Youth wholehearted-
" recommends to The Legislature of the Virgin Islands
the changes and amendments which the Governor of the
Virgin Islands will give to you for your approval during
this last week Of your sessions. We trust that you will
find these changes and amendments favorable and will
give them you + earliest attention SO that we will have
better and more helpful legislation for our children and
youth. The Commission desires to do all it can to improve
and make better all conditions which concern children and
youth.

Dear Mr.. President:
Thank youfo your letter of May 19 with which you
sent US a copy Of Bill No. go, adopted by the Legislature

Croix, Virgin Islands Of the United States
This Department has for some years been endeavor-
ing to obtain Department of the Army approval for these
Virgin Islands harbor projects. The difficulty has been,
and continues to be, that the Army Corps Of Engineers, al
though recognizing that these projects have been author
lied by Congress in the past, now carry them as economi-
cally unfeasible because annual economic benefits do not
equal annual carrying charges on the total investment.
We assure you, however, that we will continue our
efforts to have these Virgin Islands projects approved.

British Give
New Study
To Tibet

LONDON, April 20 (AP).-
Britain is reconsidering her
recognition of Red China S
right to control Tibet in the
light of the Dalai Lama's claim
that Tibetan autonomy has
been. destroyed, government
sources said today.
The British have long held
that Red China is legally en-
titled to exercise general au-
thority over Tibet provided
that the T1betan people them
selves are allowed to run their
own internal affairs.
But the fugitive Dalai Lama
in his weekend statement
claimed that the Chinese Com
munists have been consistently
interfering with local rule in
Tibet. The British still regard
the Dalai Lama as head of the
Tibetan government and there
fore accept his account of
what has been going on as
being authoritative.
The British Foreign Office
would only say that the young
rulers statement is being
studied. along with the general
situation. He added that the
British government is in close
touch with the Indian govern
ment on the matter.
