LEGISLATIVE RECORD

SECTION 8. The sum Of $4,000 is hereby appro-
priated out of any funds available in the Treasury of the
Virgin Islands for the fiscal year July /, 1859 to June 3d.
1860 for expenditure by the Department Of Education, for
all necessary expenses incident to the Food Distribution
Program authorized by this act, including the employ
ment of personnel, and the warehousing, re-packagingI
and distribution of food supplies.
, 1961-01-21

$500
stock and agricultural products. and
3. All persons whose gross receipts are less
than $500 in any one month.
These exceptions are clear and create no administrative
or other problems.
Iobject to Bill Nc. 1191 on three grounds, namely:
L. That its enforcement would create innu-
merable administrative problems in the Depart
n4ent OF Finance.
2. That its enforcement would complicate
the preparation OF, returns by businessmen who
deal in foodstuffs as well as other commodities.
3. That the removal Of such a tax would de-
fnitely not reduce the cost Of foodstuffs.
There is no clear definition Of the word "foodstuffs"
for the purposes of this bill. The definition of the word in
the dictionary is sufficiently broad as to create many prob
lens in administration. Furthermore, as written in the
bill it would not only cover foodstuffs sold from grocery
stores, but also foodstuffs served by hotels and restau-
rants.I can hardly believe that this latter phase was in
tended by the Legislature.
The removal of ~foodstuffs from a general taxable
category would cause many taxpayers to fall into the ex-
cludable group who may not have $500 or more gross re-
celpts. It would encourage evasion in reporting and pay
ing and cause additional administrative difficulties in
control and enforcement.
The exclusion would create additional work for the
businessmen in keeping separate records. of receipts from
various sources (objected to by most businessmen when
different rates OF gross receipts were recommended by the
Tax Advisory Committee in prior years.. It would also
create problems in governmental record-keeping and en-
forcement that would increase the administrative ex-
penSeS Of the Tax Division.
Finally, if the nominal savings in tax to the business
men were passed on to consumers, which is quite doubtful.
the reduction in prices would be SO negligible that such
savings in terms Of money would be almost indetermin-
able, even in cases where foods are sold to two or three
middlemen before being sold to the consumer. Thus, there
would be no gain to the consumer nor reduction in the
cost of foodstuffs.
For these reasons, I have no alternative but to disap-
prove Bill No. 1871.

, 1961-01-21

Ihave the honor to return herewith, without my APP
prevail, Bill No. 1871, Third Legislature Of the Virgin Is
lands, Regular Session, 1860, To Remove Foodstuffs from
the Imposition Of the Gross Receipt Tax, passedby the Lee
~gislature Of the Virgin Islands on May 3 and presented to
Inc for executive action on May 10. 1860.
This bill purports to exempt from the one percentum
gross receipts tax Title 33, Section 43, VI !. CD all gross
receipts derived from the sale of ~foodstuffs. The objective,
| understand, is to reduce the cost of foodstuffs. Indeed,
this is a laudable objective but, unfortunately, one which
this bill surely would not achieve.
Section 43 Of. Title 80 Of the Virgin Islands Code
levies a tax of 100 on the gross receipts of all persons en-
gagged in business, including those trading in articles,
goods, merchandise or commodities. There are but three
exception from this tax, all Of Which-unikeB Bill No. 1871
are easily determinable and readily applicable. These
exceptions are:
l. The gross receipts of persons selling their
skil1s or service on an individual or personal
basis; F
2. The gross receipts Of producers Of live

Gabe Paul
Joins Indians

NEW YORK, April q CAP)
-Gabe Paul, who left Cincin-
natl to become general manager
of the new Houston club in the
National League last November,
today was named general man
ager of the Cleveland Indians.
Paul, 81, declined to elabor-
ate on the reason for the switch
other than to say he left Hous-
ton for personal reasons" He
had a 3-year contract in
Houston.
The new general manager
of the Indians. who takes over
Immediately. said he had no
contact in Cleveland and did
not want one. He refused to
reveal his salary. but baseball
sources estimated it at close
to $4,000 a year.
Nate Dolin, Cleveland vice
president, announced the ap-
pointment. Walter CHoot)

Sonnel who has been acting
general manager, will resume

McClain saw only two
major league games in his
life before this year. His
trip to Pompano Beach with
the Senators was his first to

says. Il was visiting him and
I got to see my first major
league game - Washington

for the Senators the way he
has started, than his will be
one of the more dramatic
sports sagas of the year.
McClain does not look like
dramatic material. He is not
overly large at feet and 180
pounds. He wears his, dark
hair in crew-cut fashion. His
hazel eyes have the quiet look
of a thinker rather than a
doer. He speaks slowly and
modestly-like Jimmy Stewart
with a Southern drawl.
But beneath that quiet eX-
terror, the competitive fire
burns. There was the time in
high school, for example, when
the track coach induced Nc
Claim to take a fling at the
javelin. Never before had he
tried it, but he squeezed in
practice before baseball, then
entered five meets, won in all
of them. Included was the
Tennessee State high school
championships, in which he set
a record of 174 feet and some
change.

II had an arm then" he
says. But in my first year of
pro ball with johnson City I
pitched in the afternoon and
that night I played the outfield
and something in my elbow
snapped. I don't overpower
anybody now. I Just try to get
it over the plate with a little
bit on it,"
So far he has been doing
Just that. In 171a innings he
has walked nobody and when

Basic Rules For Fl0luer Arranging

rangement. If you use tall
container, put the water in first.
Decide whether you want to
emphasize mass (size or weight
of the bouquet. or color or
lines.
Dark colors look heavier than
light colorS. so balance the ar
rangement by placing the darker
flowers near the center. Arrange
stems at about the angles they
take when growing. Don't try to
make erect flowers sprawl hor-
izontally. Vary the length of the
stems. Avoid letting flower hold
ers show. Conceal them with
pebbles, leave or flowers.
See that the flowers are about
one and one-half times the
height of the base, or one and
one-half times the width of the
bowl.
Group kinds or colors of
flowers together, rather than
polka dotting" them through
out the arrangement.
Use only enough flowers or
materials to get the desired ef-
feet. Each flower should more
or less stand out by itself.
Share your arrangements with
others. For a sick room. use
cheerful long-lasting flowers.
For example. yellow is better
than cerise which gets dark and
dull. Assorted colors and
flowers are best for the sick
room. A few flowers may be
more pleasing than many.
Don't use flowers with disagree
cable or strong odors.
