GIs to Get Shots
Aimed ut Curbinq
Cold Symptoms
By the Associated Press

Army recruits viii be given
one-shot inoculations to COM
bat diseases which have the
symptoms Of ordinary colds.
The Army Surgeon Generals
ONCE, announcing the pro-
gram will start December /,
disclaimed any discovery of an
sll-purpose incubation to pre-
vent the common cold. It said
the inoculations were ordered
because certain viruses affect
ing the respiratory tract ac-
count for about half of the
sick calls among recruits, and
from S to 10 per cent of these
infections develop into mild
pneumonia.
Col. Joseph w. Cooch, an
Army authority on commu-
nicable diseases, said research
conducted by the Walter Reed
Army Institute Of Research
shows that the viruses seem to
hit recruits who are quartered,
for the first time, with larger
groups of young men in bar
racks.

Soviet DELAYS

Plans for signing the new
l2-nation treaty demilitarizing
Antarctica have been put of
briefly while the Soviet dele
gate seeks new instructions on
the language Of one article.
wording of the article BAN
ming peaceful nuclear explo-
sions pending international
regulatory arrangements was
expected to have been ironed
out yesterday.
But exasperated Western
delegates found the Soviet
Union insisting on a version
which would have appeared to
be a fiat ban instead of the
qualified ban agreed on Tues
day.
Some diplomats speculated
Moscow had suddenly stepped
into the picture to the en-
barrassment Of it's own dele
cation here.
There is hope, but no assur-
ance, that the Soviet delegates
new instructions will permit
quick settlement tomorrow.
If the Soviet Union stands
firm for it's own version of
the controversial article, how
ever, the conference could be
extended several days, Western
delegations acknowledged rue

In his radio talk, Mr.. Freed

LEGISLATIVE RECORD
Continued from yesterday

Continued from yesterday
We are all concerned with the fate of our industrial in
centiVe program. We have proposed legislation removing
controversial securities provisions of the tax-exemption
law, while at the same time closing the loophole feared
by the Treasury Department whereby business income
earned within the continental United States might escape
proper taxation. In his opening message the Governor
has stated emphatically his own sponsorship Of such le-
g~islation, and we trust that this entire body will join in
demonstrating to the Congress our will and ability to do
as much as possible locally to eliminate the threat to the
basic SoUndness Of the industrial incentive program.
This Legislature has a continuing responsibility for
providing means and methods for the economic advance
ment Of our people. Yet, this is not a responsibility that
government should seek to assume as its exclusive con
Germ AS in the industrial incentive program, private CAPT
tai must be induced also to invest in the future OF these
islands by programs of home construction and financing.
We have proposed measures to stimulate investment in
private middle income housing, so urgently needed
throughout the islands.
Our farmers are in need Of legislation which will
assist in making agriculture a paying profession that can
rise to the Importance it should properly have to our en-
tire economy. We propose that farm equipment and loans
be made available to the farmers of the Virgin Islands.
The interests Of employees of our Government also
require that the Legislature be ever alert to their protec-
ton and advancement. We shall be presenting to the Lee
~gislature a comprehensive Retirement Act that will as
sure the rights and interests Of such workers over the
period that we have not had a retirement Act. At the same
time, the new law will provide adequate and equitable
coverage for all employees, including per diem workers
who have SO long been ignored.
w. are reintroducing also a measure clarifying the
procedure on the suspension and dismissal Of Government
employees in order to guard against unfair and arbitrary
practices.
recent tragic motor-vehice accident in ST. Thomas
has emphasized the serious need for a compulsory auto
mobile liability insurance law. The Democratic Party has
prepared a comprehensive and up to date measure on this
subject.
We are asking the support Of the Senate, Mr.. Chair
man, in measures relating to health. We propose the
construction Of a 100 bed district hospital to be
located in the central area Of the island Of ST. Croix. We
also propose the construction. Of an annex for tubercular
and mental patients at the Knud-IIansen Memorial Hospi-
tai in ST. Thomas. Another measure provides for a physi-
Virgin Islands.
The Democratic Party recommends a bold program
Of much needed public improvements, primarily in the
area Of roads. Following are some of the projects we pro-
pose:
m or IOHN $500 M-N
, 1959-05-19

IN ]. CROIX
The construction of a modern stadium, equipped for
night sports.
Extension Of the potable water system beyond the
town limits of ChristianSted and Frederiksted.
Extension OF garbage removals service to Grove Place
and La Vallee.
The surfacing, extension and Improvement Of roads
throughout the town and country districts.
For st. Croix we propose that the H~arbormaster be
given the launch he 50 sorely needs to fill out his almost
one-rnan efforts and responsibilities in giving aid to dis
tressed vessels.
The KingshiH Police Station should be reactivated,
and in both st. Croix and St. Thomas, we must provide
additional radio patrol cars to keep pace with the realities
Of traffic. In this connection, our Police Force should have
available funds for the proper training Of its members in
the day to day skills, knowledge and arts they should
possess.
We agree that scholarship loans need be increased to
a realistic amount and have prepared legislation increas-
ing to 100000 the amount that may be granted under the
program.
We %recommend and urge a basic reconsideration Of
our labor laws to bring these more in line with the econo-
mic facts OF life faced by our working men. We have pro-
posed the adoption of procedures that insure the Virgin
Islands worker as favorable a position as is enjoyed in
other jurisdictions under the American Flag. We recon-
mend to the Legislature that it thoroughly, seriously and
carefully investigate the matter Of raising the minimum
wage. We believe that present wage practices demonstrate
that the present minimum can be raised to at least so cents
per hour.
Mr.. Chairman, the specific items which form our pro
gram-a program for the Virgin IslandS-haVe been care
fully prepared and considered.
The Democratic Party offers them in the same sense
Of a desire to contribute to the overall benefit and pros
perity Of the Virgin Islands. We pledge our sincere good
faith to the success of this Third Legislature and to all pro
%grams,that are the peoples program.
Statement Of Senator Candida R. Guadalupe:
MR.. CHAIRMAN:
have given a lot Of thought to the legislative propo-
sails which offer on behalf of the party which / represent
the Virgin Islands Party.
We should like to make it clear from the start, Of
course, that the Virgin Islands Party is interested only in
a program for the entire Virgin Islands, and it is not in
terested in only one island, or one group within the
islands.
The program which we submit is very short, because
at this time we are making part of our own program all Of
those things which the other parties have recommended
and which we believe is for the benefit of all of us.
