LEGISLATIVE RECORD
Continued from Saturday
have recommended additional revenue from new
sources Of taxes In amount of $4,000 I shall discuss this
proposal with the Legislature to determine what type or
types of additional taxes might be enacted during this ses-
sion. My own recommendation is a tax Of 30 on the sale
or charges for any room or rooms lodging, or accommo-
dations furnished by hotels, inns, and boarding houses, or
anv other place in which rooms, lodgings, or ccommod
lions are regularly furnished TOR a consideration. such g
tax is simple Of administration and would do no damage
whatsoever to the economy OF the islands. Such a tax-ls IN
effect in many States including HaWall.
Matching Funds:
For the fiscal year 1859, an ALLEGATION of So 1885, 600 was
approved by the Secretary Of the Interior from Internal
Revenue Matching Funds as a contribution toward the
operating Budget of the Territorial Government. During
that fiscal year, local revenues increased by Sl,1OO,OOO.
For the current fiscal year, the ALLEGATION OF Matching
Funds lis 3 ,250,000W while revenues are expected to IN
crease BY over S., 100000.
With this experience, and the continued upward
trend Of local revenues, there is, / am certain, no ~justlfca-
ton to continue the use of Internal Revenue Matching
Funds for operating expenses. Rather, these FUNDS should
be used for Public Works Projects and Capital improve
ments to improve our physical plant. Thus, the budget
document includes a proposal to obligate the full amount
Of estimated Internal Revenue Matching Fund receipts IN
the fiscal year 1861 for a program OF major Public Works
Projects, including the e~xtention Of the Harry :. truman
Airport in st. Thomas, the construction OF a dock at Fred
eriksted and several other projects OF an important nature.
This Capital Budget with justification begins on page 105
of the budget document.
Operating Expenditures:
For the fiscal year 1861, I am proposing legislative
and executive operating budgets totalling $~8,9l8,OOO.
These comparisons are of interest:
Operating Budget 1854 $~3,0O8,847.
i - 1858 5,733,374.
80, > 1859 6,92ly393.
/ 1860 ESTIMATED 8,294,196.
I Z 1861 ESTIMATED 8,918,0OO.
Program-wise, for major programs only, these com
parsons are also significant:
Public Education 1854 s 6O5,O3l.
1858 1,184,l99.
1859 1,428,860.

correspondingly advanced during the past several years.
In my opinion, with the possible exceptions OF:
() Public School Improvements.
dl Salaries of Doctors and Nurses.
(c) Salaries of EMPLOYEES in the Lower Brackets.
the Budget of the Government Of the Virgin Islands is
adequate to provide services for a population Of 10000 to
$4,000 persons.
IT would seem that the time has come for us to call a
halt to all but strictly necessary expansion Of operational
expenditures and to appraise what we are now spending
in the light Of the results that are being achieved. Let US
project our percentage of expenditures for three major
functions and compare them with similar state and local
government expenditures in the United States.
Virgin Islands us. tstate 8 LocaD
Education 21.94% 5000
Public Welfare $1,000 1870
Health & Hospitals 22.43R 1890
50.37R 51.3Go
Our expenditures for education are low, but the state
figures include support of colleges and universities. Our
expenditures for health and hospitals are extremely high,
but here we do not have any privately-oWned hospitals as
are found throughout the United States.
In summary, I am not in favor of increasing our oper-
ating expenditures to the point OF spending all the lncreas-
ing revenues we are receiving without q further Careful
study Of the entire governmental structure. We should be
gin to plan for a reserve fund to cushion our economy for
the inevitable day of reckoning. Certainly, it is not to r.
expected LnaL Ine lSlanQS pTeSent upward IeHu Will vi
tinue indefinitely. Any excess local revenues should, ! re-
commend, be used to improve our educational standards
and to set aside a reserve fund to be available IN case Of a
local, national, or worldwide recession or disaster.
In line with my strong views as expressed above in
regard to the necessity of holding down our constantly in
creasing expenditure, the 1861 Budget allows only the
most urgent increases with practically no allowance for
additional personnel. | am Of the opinion that the Terrific
rial Government is now fairly adequately stated with the
possible exception of teaching personnel Any increased
personnel costs or program expansions will have to be met
by increases in local taxes. There are no cutbacks in any
department as will be seen from the following:

House Minority Leader Hal

about to move things along to
the next item on the program
when Kentucky asked to be rec

one of those awful Joe Smith

For what purpose does the
gentleman from Kentucky ask
to be recognized" he inquired.
The gentleman from Ken

Mr.. Halleck wanted to know
what the resolution was all
about.
Delegates, shifting what t

Evidence Offered
You can find evidence Of this
shift in the record of IS curren-
cies during the past decade just
compiled by the First National
City Bank of New York.
The compilation shows the
shrinkage of each currency's
buying power in the periods
I1949-54 and 1954-60. 1t is in
the breakdown into flve-year
periods that the story may be
found.
Consider the United States
dollar. If you look just at the
10-year span. the loss in the
dollars buying power comes
to 2 per cent a year. But when
you look at the period from
1949-54, you see that the loss
then came to 2,3 per cent a
year-a reflection of the inf1a-
tionary bulge caused by the
Korean war was piled on top of
World War II-while the loss
since 1854 has been 1T per cent
a year. This annual loss may
be nothing to cheer about, but
the truth is that dividends or
interest on most savings and
yearly pay raises of the major
ity of workers more than Offset
this loss.
Most important, the slowing
trend is continuing. Consumer
prices are now almost 2 per
cent ahead of a year ago, but
the rise is the result of largely
seasonal incre asses in food
prices and increases in the cost
of services. Average prices of
goods other than foods actually
have declined almost / per cent
during 1860. This is not
initiation.
Or consider Canada's record.
In the 1949-54 period. her dol
lar lost 3 per cent in buying
power a year, but between 1854
and 1860 her dollar lost IL per
cent a year. Obviously a slow
ing trend.
Italy's Record
Or consider Italy. Italy's
currency lost value at the rate

of 312 per cent a year in
l949-54. but at the rate Of 1.8
per cent a year in l954-60.
Or consider the United King
dom. The pounds loss was 4.9
per cent a year in the first FIVE
year period-inflation by any
yardstick-but was down to 80
per cent in the second phase
This is progress.
Or consider The Netherlands
Here the record is a loss of 4.6
per cent annually in 1949-54,
rs per cent annually in
1954-60.
So it goes-with such nations
as Austria dramatically cutting
the pace of loss from l0.1 per
cent in the early 1950s to %
per cent in the late l950s and
Greece slashing it from SO pei
cent TO s per cent.
The basic point shines above
| all details. though. The curb
ing Of imitation goes far be-
yond our borders. Barring an
other world upheaval, this
very fact gives us hope the
slow down is no temporary
phenomenon.
