Mr.. President, fellow-members Of this Legislative!
Body, is it moi. the administrations duty to run the Gov
eminent Of the Virgin Islands in the best possible manner
for all the people Of our Islands? And is it not this Admin
istration's duty to request a budget that will enable it to

afford?
The Commissioners of the Virgin Islands who are
charged with the running Of all Departments and Agencies

Officer says, give them six and a half million and let them
eat cake.

ness people is at an all-time high; at a time when we can
look forward to even greater revenues accruing to our is

most conservative Of revenue estimates for the coming
year. At a time when all around us are marching forward
we. are asked to stand and mark time!
What would happen if this legislature were to enact
this Budget as it has been -presented to US? To use the
favorite word of a good friend of mine there would indeed
be chaos" This document, Mr.. President, does not repre-
sent progress for the people of the Virgin Islands. 1t re-
presents retrogreSSlon!

Hornets Route Nanooks 46-24
 The Polar Hornets, led by Ike Larsen, had things all their own way as they easily beat the Nome High School five in the nightcap of Fridays doubleheader of bas- ketball.
 The Nanooks, trying as hard as ever, were just not able to con- tend with the shooting and qre- bounding of the older, larger Polars.
 Bright spots in the Nanooks eff fort were the all-around play of Rome Locke and the alertness of "Opportunist" Fred Kungesuk.
 Fridays results leave the Ma hooks still winless and in the eel lar of the City League. The Polar finished in fourth place behind the ANB.
 Part of the never-say-die spirit of the 'Nooks is no doubt due to the completely faithful support of the cheerleaders, Tweet Hardy, Carolyn Johnson, Betty Woodcock and Suzie Saito and mascot Susie WOOdcOck.

Jury Convicts
 N. ". Underworld Confab Delegates

NEW YORK, R - A federal court jury Friday convicted 20 delegates to the 1857 Appalachian underworld convention of con- spiracy to hide the real purpose of the conclave.
 The conviction was hailed by Attorney General William P, Rogers as "a landmark in the gov ernment's fight against organized crime and racketeers."
 The verdict was returned by a jury of eight men and four women after more than Is hours of deliO- eration to climax the 53-day trial, Some of the Well-dressed defend ants slunped in their seats, sev ral sobbed. One moaned in Italian: 'I'm innocent"
 Judge Irving R. Kaufman com mended the jury for it's "intelli- gent verdict" He set January IA for sentencing. Each of the con- victed men could get up to five years in prison and a $5,0OO fine.
 "You deserve the thanks of the community and the nation by your patience in sitting through this trial" Judge Kaufman told the jury. "This will show the country that grand juries and other federal agencies cannot be defied or sneered at by people who consider themselves above and beyond the law"
 The defendants had explained the meeting of more than SO un- derworld figures at the Appala- chian, N. Y. hillside estate of the late Joseph Barbara Sr., as visit to a sick friend or a social affair. Some said they were there because they had auto trouble nearby.

FIRST HALF STANDINGS
AVG Nips ANB Tn Overtime To Win Championship 55-53

By far the best basketball game of the season was seen Friday night when the National Guard, on the great clutch playing Of Korky Kost, snatched the victory from determined ANB. The fracas went into overtime after the Brotherhood's Gil Ozenna stole the ball and went in a solo lay-in with less than minute to go.
 The Guard enjoyed a 29-18 lead at half time but the ANB had whittled this to 44-4O at the end of the third quarter.
 In the final quarter the score was evened as the clock ran out and the game went into overtime.
 This was a hard earned victory for the Defenders and tremen- dous effort for the ANB. This win cinched first half first place for the Guard and dropped the ANB to third place in the league.
 Starring for the champs" were Bill Caldwell with 31 points and 21 rebounds; Dave Bell with 12 points and IS rebounds and Hal Bell and Kork Kost with their great floor game.
 For the ANB Arnie Castel did a really great job of floor leader ship, Jake Titus sank A, Gil Ozenna had IF, and Little Art Trigg, who laid seige to the Guard.

Federal Mortgage Loan Loss Leaves
 Alaska Moneyless

ANCHORAGE, R - The ten million dollars in federal mort gage insurance recently made available to Alaska through a special program is the last of such funds available to the state, and local builders and bankers pre- dict these funds will be exhausted next summer.
 The termination of this special assistance program will be ter rife blow to the economy of Alaska, said o. H. Mcclure of the First National Bank last week.
 Mcclure said in excess of 99 per cent of single family owner occupied dwellings constructed in Alaska are financed through the special program of Federal Ma tional Mortgage Insurance Asso- citation pertaining to Alaska.
 Right at the moment there is no other source of capital for home building in the state, Me Guire said.
 Under the special EMMA pro- gram, local banks finance home building and EMMA buys the mortgages from the banks, in eff feet financing the industry.
 Outside private investors are demanding prohibitive interest rates or loans for building in Alaska, Mcclure added.
 He estimated there is now about five million dollars available for home buildino in the area. These funds, he said, will be exhausted next June or July.
 It is not possible for home build CTS to plan for next year, McGuire said. without a source of finance after the middle of the summer.
 Governor Egan announced from Juneau this week that he had been informed the special EMMA program for the state would end when the funds are exhausted.

Health and Welfare Meet Al Fairbanks Decides
 Regional Meetings Needed

FAIRBANKS - The Alaska Health, Education and Welfare Council met at the Fairbanks Health Center December IA. The charge handed down to. the coun- ciI from the conferenc last sum- ner was for them to effect region al groupings of the state organiza- ton. The Pilot Regional Confer ence held at Kotzebue in March was so successful that, at the state conference held at College in August, it was decided that per manent regional sections of the state organization should be es- tablished.
 It was suggested that such re- giona1 groups be started at Ju- neau, Anchorage, Bethel, Nome, Kotzebue and Fort Yukon. Fair. banks would also have a regional group. It would be so much easier for people to attend a conference at these places than for thm to go to on central place like Fair banks. Delegates selected at these regional meetings would attend the statewide conference and eff feet the proposals submitted from the regions.

CHICAGO, LR mn A Chicago couple was overcome with emo tion Friday when they learned an appeal to Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev had lifted the Iron Curtain and they soon will be re- united with their two children after IS years.
 X Soviet officials in Moscow told the U. s. Embassy the two Lithu- anian children, Regina Leonas, 20, and her brother, Tomas, r, will be sent to Chicago to join their parents some time next month.
 MT. and Mrs. Paulius Leonas, who had made a personal plea to Khrushchev for reunion with their children when he was in Des Moines last September 23, were thrilled

They left the children with Mrs. Leonas' parents, escaped to the British zone in Germany, and lived in England and Canada before coming to Chicago as dis placed persons in 1853.

Flight Engineers Complain Of Inadequate Training

ST. PAUL, Minn., LR - A dis pute between Northwest Airlines and it's flight engineers, who say they are receiving inadequate" training for flights on jet Electras, will go into U. S. District Court today.
 The company seeks an injunc- ton prohibiting the engineers from interfering with Electra flights or acting in consort in re- fusing to fly,
 The company and International Association of Machinists District 143 said the dispute involved the training period given engineers as signed to Electras. VIVA formerly provided an eight-week familiar ization course but cut 1t to three weeks last June.
 Henry Halliday, attorney for NWA, said there was no safety question involved and that flight engineer was no more than a third set of eyes"
 "There isn't any maintenance you can do in the air." he said. "All the engineers do is help watch the instruments and in form the pilot if there seems to be a malfunction.'
