LEGISLATIVE REC I'D
Continued from yesterday


Mr. TTLEY: think the Record should show that
Senators Hodge and Lawaetz are in Washington on ON
cial business OF the Legislature, and probably will be back
OH Mondays session.
Also, Mr.. Chairman, there is one comment | should
like to make at this time with respect to the work that
was done-the outstanding job that ! think was done BY
the members of our Police Force and our Home Guard
during Carnival when we had a large number OF visitors
here celebrating, and, when we had a great number. OF
traffic difficulties due to certain hazards that were erected
during the Carnival period. And, / should say that despite
the fact that we had SO many people here, and despite the
fact that we had so many cars and so much traffic difficult
ties, we were able to go through this Carnival period with
very little disorder, no accidents to speak OF, and ! think
that the responsibilities for turning out that fine perform
ance rest with the Police Force and the Home Guards1nen.
am happy to say, Mr.. Chairman, that will support
the bill that has been introduced here to give compenSa-
ton to members of the Home Guard. | think, though, that
it should be amended, and | am going to offer that amend
ment, when the bill comes up for consideration, to make
the compensation Of the Home Guardsmen retroactive TO
the Carnival Period because / think that it it were not TOR
that outstanding effort we probably will not have enjoyed
the fine accident-freep period that we did during the carnl-
val time.
And, would propose, Mr.. Chairman, if there is no OBJ
lection from any Of the members, that the Chairman write
i letter to the Commissioner Of Public Safety congratulate
ING the Policemen for their fine performance and to the
Commanding Officer Of the Home Guard for the same job.
DR.. ANDUZE: Mr.. President.
THE VICE PRESIDENT: Senator Anduze.
DR.. ANDUZE: Ishould like, by way Of emphasis, to
repeat what Senator de Lugo said that we are glad TO see
YOU in the Chair today and we are happy that you have
not been put of from carrying on the peoples bust
ness due to the Presidents absence, as was done before.
You can be sure that you're going to have the cooperation
Of the minority senators. We will keep our eyes on the Ma
iority senators to see that they DO the same.
We have coming up now three bills which we would
like to have introduced this afternoon. One, / think, is OF
the moment particularly because Of the heavy rains which
we have had today. This bill will provide some emergency
relief for the people who have been suffering on account
Of the heavy rain fall. Another Of the three, is to create a
sort Of an Emergency Revolving Fund 50 that in case
something like this should happen, during the time when
the Legislature is not in session, this fund can be drawn
UPON and be replenished at such time as the Legislature
reconvenes. Those are two particular items which would
annreciate to have introduced this afternoon; and it there
are no objections we can, at least, consider the one provid-
inc for emergency funds.

Senator de Lugo.


THE VICE PRESIDENT: Senator de Lugo.
MR.. DE UGO The other subject that wanted to
cover something that I have been thinking about since
we received the Governor S Budget. Last year, in the Gov
ernor's budget, there was provided for increases for his
Administrative Assistants-the Governors Admln1stra-
tive Assistants, in Saint Groix and Saint John
/ spent a little time going back into the Records,
back in 1856, when the Congressional Committee held
hearings on our Organic Act, and | was particularly inter
ested IN what was looking for was certain statements
that | see here our present governor made when he was
Senator AT Large but particularly elected by the People o.
Saint Croix. He was then Senator MerWln.
And / find it most interesting that in December of
1856. speaking before the OBrien Subcommittee, both
Senator Hodge and Senator MerWin, Senator LaWaetz,
and all Of the citizens who were then ~testifying on the IS
land Of Saint Croix pointed out the problem that we nave
over there with regard to the limited authority that IS
placed in the hands in the governors representative on
that island. / am sure that you are cognizant OF the TACT
that many times problems arise on the island OF SAINT
Croix-Im sure they do on the island OF SAINT Ihomas
and Saint John too-that the Governors Representative
should certainly be able 70 solve MANY lIeS ~ :
small expenditure.
But. although we have been talking about this prob
lem down through the years nothing is done. am sure we
even read in Senator Ottley's Newspapers TN one OF ms
columns) the recent conflict Of authority between the De-
partnent Of Public Works and the Administrative Assls-
tant to the Governor for the Island OF SAINT Crox.
Speaking before the Congressional Committee, our
present Governor-When he was a Senator, back IN 1896
said that he agreed Fundamentally with the testimony
that was given by Senator Hodge; that there should be
definite authority placed in the hands Of the Governors
Representative on the island Of Saint Crolx, and also the
island Of Saint John. And, the Governor went on to say
Frankly if there we're to be any change,a-thi IS
talking about amendments to the. Organic Act snou5o
he that the language that was Incorporated in the 1886
act should be incorporated in the present act, that ne
should exercise supervision over all administrative de-
partnents.n In other words, as you know, when the pre-.
sent Organic Act came into being, the post was stripped OF
its authority. Previously, on the island Of Saint Croix
there was an Administrator who was in complete charge
of the administrative functions Of the island Of Saint Cro1x.
But, Senator Merwin, speaking before the committee
went on to say
But, frankly, | don't believe that it is a matter that
requires congressional action. Again, I think it IS one
where, if the Governor were thoroughly informed and
somebody could get through his head the fact he does have
a problem and he has to do something about it, that this
could be corrected by the Governor"

DREDGING OF BAR
CHANNEL, OREGON
INLET DUE TODAY
To Remove 100000 Yards TO IA
Fl. Depth by 400 f.: APP
Proch Channel Half Done

The Corps of Engineers Hoppe,
Dredge Hyde is scheduled to arrive
at Oregon Inlet today (June 81 to
begin the dredging of the inlet's
ocean bar channel, a report from
Col. R. P. Davidson, District Engi-
neer of the Wilmington District ad-
vises.
The Hyde will come here from
New York where it has been en-
gagged in similar work.
Colonel Davidson said it is esti-
mated that it will take the Hyde
two weeks to remove the necessary
100000 Gu. yds. to provide project
dimensions of Ia feet deep by 400
feet wide.
He said the last survey of the
bar channel was made May II and
at that time the controlling depth
was 1915 feet at mean low water.
Normal tide variations at the in
let is 1.8 feet.
In view of the fact that the
dredge would have to round Dia-
mond Shoals to reach Morehead
City for supplies, the dredge will
go to Norfolk for fuel, water and
other necessary provisions. She is
equipped TO carry enough water and
oil for two weeks work.
Meanwhile, according to the re-
port, the dredging of the inside
approach channel from Pamlict
Sound to the inlet has passed thu
halfway mark and with reasonable
weather the job should be finished
within a few weeks. When Thu
project is completed all channels
from the sounds to the inlet will b
IL feet deep.
