LEGISLATIVE RECORD
Continued from yesterday
ADDRESS
BY
HONORABLE WALTER /. IN. HODGE
President. Legislature Of the Virgin Islands
INAUGURAL CEREMONIES
Hon. Ralph PaieWonsky as 61st Governor Of the Virgin
Islands. Governor Morris #. de Castro, Master Of Cere-
monies, Governor MerWin, Judge Gordon, Senators and
distinguished guests, my fellow Virgin islanders:
On behalf Of the members Of the Legislature, and the
peopleof ST. Thomas. st. Croix, and ST. John,
CONGRATULATIONS GOVERNOR and MRS.
RALPH PAIEWONSKY
More 80 than on similar occasions in the past, the
Inauguration today of the new Governor OF the Virgin
Islands has special significance. This is SO because the
Honorable Ralph PaieWonsky, as he takes the oath OF
office this morning, assumes the burden OF carrying out
within these islands the new dynamic philosophy Of Gov
eminent which President John F. Kennedy has an
nounced for all of our great nation.
Governor PaieWonsky, then becomes the first of
our new conference.-the leader of what must be a joint
and bold adventure in combating through Government
the problems which confront our Virgin Islands COM
munity.
TO-DAY AMONG us there are many who remain
ill-housed. The firstAand primary order Of business of
any administration Of these islands, am confident, will
beto afford immediate relief to the helpless, the needy,
the handicapped. the III.
Plain, common, simple humanity demands that all
of us take care of the some of US who are less fortunate
and unable to help themselves.
Therefore, we shall all have to face. up to the pro-
blem of providing adequate housing for the THOUSANDS
among us who live under sub-standard and slum condi-
tions Of squalor and sickness.
We must provide ways and means OF expanding
and improving essential government services m the
fields Of health, welfare. and education.
We shall have to be expanding our road system
to meet the requirements Of islands rapidly becoming
overcrowded with cars.
We shall have to devote our minds and energies to
finding more firm bases for our economy.
We shall have constantly to demonstrate our capa-
city and determination for greater autonomy.
It has seemed to me for quite some time that all OF
us need consider that extent to which our community
is changing in terms of ownership of property and bus

i0NOG hAA N ~ ~ -
a democratic system, but it represents, III actual prac-
tice and for all practical purposes, one Of the strongest
weapons used in gaining such power
While we speak Of self-government, then we cannot
afford to ignore the fact that if we Virgin Islanders as
such, aspire for more political control over our own al
fairs, we shall have to be vigilant, and prove ourselves
at least as resourceful and self-reliant as are others when
Lit comes to producing wealth from our natural and
human resources.
We shall look to our new Governor for firm action
in communicating and putting to use all such human q
natural resources of the Virgin Islands.
None Of these goals or purposes are in themselves
new. The search for a better life, for improving Of iv-
ing standards, for greater individual and community
security and happiness is as old as mankind itself.
The vigor and enlightenment with which we have
pursued these detectives, however, has not been con-
slant, and, unfortunately, too often has been insufficient.
In today,s world, as we look about us, in this very
Caribbean area, we receive the impression OF people
forging ahead-of people more and more participating
in the shaping of their destinies. Here in the Virgin Is
lands. too. we must keep pace with the forward progress
of other peoples. In that sense we must look to our new
Governor for inspired and strong leadership OF the past
and to strike out boldly toward new frontiers.
Here and now We call upon our new Governor to
accept on behalf Of all Virgin Islanders the challenge OF
the future.
In this great task he is assured, not merely Of the good
will fthe people, but primarily of our firm cooperation.
@
For we have within us a vast reservoir Of talent
and ~ability-in government, in business, in labor, in the
arts and trades-and all of that talent and ability is at
Governor PaieWonsky's disposalto aid in whatever there
need be done.
Governor Paiewonsky, after weeks Of being among
strangers and having them tell you who you were and
what you are, it must be a real pleasure Tor you to pc
here today among lifelong friends among the people OF
st. Thomas, ST. Croix and st. John, who have known
and respected you all your life.
When you stepped unto the airports here and IN
st. Croix and felt the tremendous and spontaneous warm
welcome back home given you by the people OF these
Virgin Islands, | am sure that it must have made up
for the ordeal Of misrepresentation that you have ex-
perienced in the weeks just past.
We stand today on the threshold Of the future.
You are our Governor.

Some people in Peru
need help - SO she's off
to Lima.
That's the gist of the
reasons why JEANNE Rel
ser decided to become a
Papal Volunteer - a lay mis-
sionary to the people in Lima,
Peru.
BY NOW she has arrived
in Cuernavaca, Mexico, where
she will study the language
and culture of the Peruvians
for four months at the Center
of Inter- Cultural Develop
ment, a special school stated
by Fordham University per-
sonnet.
When her briefing and
training period is completed
the st. John the Evangelist
pariShioner will continue on
to Lima where she has been
assigned to st. Rose of Lima
Social Service Center.
There JEANNE will work

is not Catholic herself. the
mother is bringing up the boy
in the Catholic Faith, which

1t is for this reason that

finding a Catholic man to be
a Big Brother to Jimmy.
IF A SUFFICIENT number
Of Catholic men, like Paul

NO BUSINESS
LIKE NOSE
BUSINESS

TAICHUNG, Formosa -
While many entertainers in
the US. undergo surgery to
have the proboscis reduced in
size, on this Oriental island
the fad is to have the nose
enlarged.
"And it's all because of the
influence of American NOV
ies," claims Maryknoll Father
Francis x. Keelan, of Cam
bridge, Mass, a veteran Chi
ma missioner, "Time was when
Orientals looked with disdain
on foreigners as "big nose"
people. But today, for a small
$40 fee, many young Formo-
sans are lining up at clinics
to have noses just like their
favorite American movie
stars"

FIRST DIOCESAN VOLUNTEER:
People In Peru Need
Hell - So She Goes

1854, and Ohio State Univer-
sity, is the first Diocesan lay
missioner to be accepted in
the Papal Volunteers for La
tin America program, which
was begun earlier this year.
WHY DID this 24-year-old,
attractive young laywoman to
decide to offer a couple of
years of her life to the poor
of Lima? AS we said, it's real
~ pretty simple.
There are people in need,
I just happen to have the abil-
tiles that are needed and the
time to give"
DOES SHE SEE herself as
a militant crusader against
Communism?
mot really, though l know
that the Communists are max
ing great inroads in Latin
America and that our work
will help combat them. The
fact remains however, that
the people in Lima and else
where would still need our
help if Communism was elm
mated today"
WHAT is 1T that the peo-
pie of Lima need?
"Most of them are very
poor - there is another ex-
treme the very rich. but
there is little or no halfway
mark. They need to be taught
the religion which they pro-
fess to believe. Most of them
have a surface knowledge of
the sacramentS and a few
pious practices but due to
the lack of priests and edu-
Gated laymen, they have no
real concept of the teachings
of the Church"
In addition to her degree
in social administration, Jean
inc has received other train
ing by her work with the Do
cesar Council of Catholic
Youth. While going to school
she was a councillor at Camp

she joined the Diocesan
Youth Office, assisting Faith
er Richard Dodd, Diocesan
Youth Director. as a parish
group counsellor. She has

Last June after reading the
stories on the new lay mis-
sionary program in the Catho-
lie Times, she volunteered her
services to Msgr. James Kulp
and Father Robert Reilly,
Diocesan PAVLA and Exten-

Since that time, she and

few days. Numerous towns in

tify to the hardy nature of the
Peruvians who have none of
the conveniences we are ac-
customed to-" Msgr. Kulp
notes.
The towns were laid out by
the Spanish explorers, usual
ly on ancient Inca ruins, and
all feature narrow winding
streets (for walking since
there are almost no carS),
adobe houses that are sur
prisingly weather tight, a lit
tie open plaza or square
