a fact that it takes 4 lb. of bauxite
to make 2 Id. of alumina. The 2 Id.
of waste is red mud, and the only
place to depose of it would be the
sea. How w o uld this effect our
beaches and our fishes?
Two proposed sites have been
mentioned: Sandy Point and
Krause Lagoon.
If the present owners of Sandy
Point develop the area in accord
anee with the plan that one has
heard about, it would seem that
this would benefit st. Croix and
the Virgin Islands far more than
would an industrial giant in the
same location.
Krause Lagoon is a wildlife re-
fuge, and / also understand it is
used by migratory birds as a stop
over. An industrial plant in this
location would wipe out all of this
fauna-a serious occurrence on an
island that hasn't much Wildlife
to begin with.
A newspaper report indicates

Atomic power plants r relative
Iy safe, but accidents do occur. The
biggest problem, aside from acct
dental radiation, is the disposal Of
atomic waste, which can be buried
in the ground or dumped at sea.
Burial in the ground is expen-
sive. If burial is made in coastal
land, it would seem that there
might be a possibility of leakage
into the sea. If buried inland, who
is going to give permission to have
his land used for this purpose?
Dumping at sea is a subject Ar
bout which little is known. It is
known that deep sea pressure is
fantastically high. # a sample test

Mr.. Ronald de Lugo

Dear Mr.. de Lugo:
In a recent issue of the Cham
Der of Commerce Newsletter, it is
reported that you discussed with
the Chambers Executive Commit
tee the proposed Harvey ALUMNI
mum Plant in st. Croix.
This report has logged me into
writing to you to voice my protest
against such an industry establish
ing itself in the Virgin Islands.
1t is much discussed that the
Government is being requested,
by Harvey, to give 1900 acres for
their plant here. This is about 2k
square miles, compared to our
small IS square miles total land
area, and represents a big piece
of st. Croix.
Primarily because of man-made
laws and tax incentives, Harvey
seems to think this is the ideal
place to locate. If these laws and
incentives are man-made, by Con-
gress and by our Legislature, the
sam law-making bodies can
change or remove them, and Har-
vey would not wish to stay.
If Harvey came and left later
on, it would deal the same blow
to the economy that faces us now
with the anticipated dissolution Of
Vicorp,
It is said that it would be much
better for our economy to give one.
acre to each of 1900 small indus
tries-or even 10 acres to 100 bus
inesses, or even 100 acres each to
is firms-than to give such a large
piece Of land to only one company.
This idea seems to have a lot of
merit, and would certainly do
more to stabilize our economy. The
49,
departure of one or several smaller
firms would not effect us SO much
as the elimination Of one large
company.
There is also much spoken about
the dirty operation of q plant con-

chased the CATTLE of Loran Whit
tington and placed them on the
ranch. These cattle were moved
off Near Island with a small barge
powered by 104h.p. kicker, which
was no small chore.
Last year Fields bought a small
herd of cattle on Seven-Mile Beach
at the head of Uyak Bay, and in
Guiding Bear Island. These cattle
have been there over 80 years.
They have foraged for themselves.
Fields says they are a hardy breed,
brought there many years ago. At
one time, he said, they belonged
to Russian Dick who broke in two
oxen to work as a team, to haul
hay, and do other work on the
ranch.
Il now have in my possession
the oxen yoke and harness, and all
the wooden implements that were
used on this ranch. There is lot of
evidence of ingenuity demonstrated
on this ranch, for his furniture and
all his tools were made out of alder
over so years ago"
When the ranch is stocked,
Fields said, he plans to move on to
it, and build home, and devote his
full time to its operation. He says
Kodiak has great potential for
cattle ranching. The climate is con-
ducive to cattle ranching, and 1--WE

One we purposely kept to the last
Our present land laws.
In Feb, 1910, all public lands on
Kodiak and the adjacent islands
were withdrawn for purposes of
classification by Executive Order
No. 1874. Later, under Executive
Order No. 1857, strip one mile
wide along the shore line was re-
stored for entry; but this is on the
south and west side of the Island
and has no effect ON the fine graz
ing land around the City. The same
order created a vast wild live ref

of the Island.
Ranchers today are bitter about
this order. It STILES the industry,
limiting them in their operations.
The rancherS are given grazing
leases, but are unable to gain pat
ents to the land occupied.
Another factor, too, that adds to
the cattle raisers woe is the high
cost of transportation of breeding
stock. This runs well over one
hundred dollars a head. Is it any

Since taking office, Mr.. Car

Park Police force, a unit of

berS of the Park Police force.

the force became affiliated with

men were being recruited to
join the American Federation

music, he is a cultivated singer.
He is possessed of great integ-

dignity, and an inborn grace
of expression.
Above all, he communicates
with his audience through
music.
Unlike many of the Johnny
come-latelieS in the folk music
field, Dyer-Bennet does not rely
on smut, the risque innuendo,
violent enthusiasm, or fancy
arrangements to make his
point. He is quite content to
sing his songs simply, to enun-
ciate the words clearly, and to
let words and music make the
point.
Mr.. Dyer-Bennet never did
have a great voice, but it has
always been pleasant and ex-
preSSive and he makes the
most of what he has. If there
were a few signs of strain in
the upper register, they were
more compensated for by the
informality and sweetness OF
hte recital as a whole.
A fine and sensitive musician
as well as something of a Schol-
ar, Mr.. Dyer-Bennet is not a
folk-singer. But despite this,
there are few genuine folk
singers who can do better with
a simple ditty than this artist.
