Awaken every household. Let
the people know there is some
body in charge in Washington. !"
Vote Recovery Hoped
This kind Of campaigning.
plus Mr.. Kennedy's own indi-
vidual and staff efforts, would
be calculated to bring as many
as possible Of the Southern and
Border State Democratic Sen
ators back into the adminiStra-
ton fold when the chips are
down in Senate roll calls.
Democratic Leader Mans
field of Montana said in an
interview he believes the Ken
nedy forces can get Senate ap-
proval for major measures in
a form close to the administra-
tons original proposals.
But Mr.. Mansfield conceded
that some ground is bound to
be lost in compromises with the
House, so that the final legis-
lation will represent a watered-
down version of what the
President requested.
In an effort to minimize
these compromise losses. SEN
ator Mansfield said he hopes
the Senate will act first on
some issues, notably on the
Kennedy aid-to-education pro-
gram. How much Senate sup
port of the Presidents position
will influence the House re-
mains to be seen, however.
Republicans Fight Hard
The majority of Senate Re-
publicans are determined to
do all they can to water down
the Kennedy proposals. Mr.
Kennedy will get some protec-
ton from time to time from
Senate G. o. P. liberals, but
even that promises to be spo-
radio.

proposal laid before Congress.
No one expects Mr.. Kennedy
to take lying down the defeat
he suffered last Friday when a
House coalition Of Republicans
aud Southern Democrats killed
an administration compromise
on the minimum wage bill by
one vote.
hut the 216-2O3 roll call vote
by which q Republican alter
native proposal was approved
showed Mr.. Kennedy what he
probably can expect in the
House on many issues.
The Presidents obvious an
sWer will be to put all the
pressure he can mount on the
Senate to get his version
adopted there.
Pressure Tactics Used
Mr.. Kennedy already has
shown in some other instances
a readiness to send Cabinet
members into action. to call
Governors on the telephone to
urge them to enlist the sup
port of their Senators in his
cause and to use his personal
powers Of persuasion with his
former colleagues.
Vice President johnson ap-
pears to have launched another
phase Of this with a call on
Democrats to rally party sup
port for the new President.
In a frankly partisan speech
alta Louisville (Ky.) Jefferson
Jackson Day dinner, Mr.. john
son said it is not going to be
enough for Democrats to Offer
'IAere complacent loyalty OF
consistent devotion" to the
President.
Mr.. Johnson said Mr.. Ken
nedy must have "the knowl-
edgeable support Of a knowl-
edseable party campaigning in
season and out for the success
Of his program" His advice to
Democrats:

of the administration, will lead
the mobilization brigade against
the minimum wage bill.
Republican Senators Bridges
of New Hampshire and John j.
williams Of Delaware are
pumping up opposition to Mr..
Kennedy's money requests.
These teams will be supple
mented by others as the oc-
casion arises. But their effec-
tiveneSs will depend on how
many conservative Democrats
go along with them, despite
presidential Establishments and
other presSures.

living without undue hardships.
And on his behalf / present this
problem.
It has been a pleasure for me
to be on this program to break
ground for this housing project
which will bear the name Of
Ralph de chabert. We can never
repay him, but on this occasion
we can tell his family in this
manner that we appreciate every
thing he has done and honor him
for the many contributions he has
made to humanity.
He was a great man, because he
was a good man, and goodness is

Editorial
ANOTHER NATIVE SON HONORED

ANOTHER NATIVE son O -
THE RALPH DE CHABERT Place will bring two signi-
fcant facts to the fore. 1t will be the eighth such public hous-
ingproject undertaken, and it will, by the time it is completed,
have fully established the system of naming these develop
ments in honor Of distinguished citizens. Before the Housing
Authority came into being, three other projects had. been
completed.
HOUSING IS HIGHLY important to the development
and living standards Of any community. In fact, the future Of
the community is very often determined by the type Of hous-
ing it has, whether or not facilities are adequate, and the
members Of the family have the necessary convenience and
privacy which goes to make home. More than that, one of
the surest signs of degradation is poor housing, which breeds
crime and delinquency Of all sort. Clean, airy, well lighted,
and efficient homes can therefore do much to maintain a high
standard Of living.
IT'S GOOD that we have turned to naming our develop
ments for citizens of distinction. Ralph de Chabert was Just
such a citizen. Early he devoted himself to public life. He
worked with the press, and for many years was editor Of The
ST. Croix Tribune. Wherever the public good was involved
there was Ralph de Chabert, including long and self-sacri6c-
ing labors with the St. Croix labor movement. He worked with
the homesteading program, injecting his ideas and dreams
into what he felt could have turned the economic tide Of these
Islands.
RALPH DE CHABERT was more. He was an exemplary
father and husband, raising, with his charming wife, Annie,
FIVE children, all Of whom are Of credit to their community.
The first of these sons is a physician attached to the staff Of a
New York Hospital. It must have been a proud and satisfying
moment for Mrs. Chabert, as she participated in the ground
breaking ceremonies.
IT'S A PROPER and fitting thing that we seek to honor
our citizens vino made their contributions, and we have gone
even further, refusing to wait until they have passed on, but
while still with us. We are arriving and doing it in a dignifed
and satisfying way. The honor of the name Of Ralph de Cha
bert was fttngly one Of these ways.

ADDRESS
delivered by
DR.. AUBREY A. ANDUzE

Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and
Gentlemen.
We are witnessing another step
forward in our general perspec-
tive of progress here in st. Croix.
Being on this program for break
ing ground has been an opportu-
nifty to which / have looked for
ward with a great d al of
anticipated satisfaction; not only
because of my part in making
possible this project, but because
it is to be named after my friend,
Mr.. Ralph de Chabert.
He was a quiet soft-spoken gen
tleman, yet possessed of a power
full influence on his fellowmen.
And it was in this influential at
mosphere that his colleagues in
our Colonial Council and it poll
tics helped to shape the destiny of
our community. He extended a
hand to the working man, and his
leadership gave them inspiration
and purpose; his identification
with their cause brought to them
credit and prestige.
His lifetime of exemplary pub
lie service represents an outstand-
ing contribution Of personal
devotion and dedication to the
public trust and benefit.
There is hardly a time that I
speak with his wife that his name
is not mentioned. She told me
that shortly after they were mar
ried, one day as they YER having
an afternoon walk, she held his
arm-you know how possessive a
young bride can be. This, she said,
embarrassed him. He was the
bashful type.
This incident is characteristic of
the great man that he was. He
cared for no public recognition for
his devotion either to his family
or to the community, but his sin
cerity Of purpose, whether in pub
lie or private life, bore fruit, the
sweet benefits of which our com
munity enjoys even now.
Although he agreed that much
can be done by community in
spired youth centers and civic
groups toward the training of our
young citizens, yet he believed
that the home, which is the tradi-
tional source Of wisdom and
character, should continue to be
the center and inspiration Of
every Christian Community.
Here we are erecting apart
ments, but we are depending on
parental love and care, and reli-
gion and morality to transform
each Of these units into a good
home as g sure foundation for 9
good society.
Ralph de Chabert would not
have been contented with the
mere realization Of this fulillment
of necessary public housing, he
would 60 even further. He would
want tha n1lhlic housing officials

Most anglers remove the roe
and throw the rest into the

hooks.

we're using to catch all the

The rigs were small. single
gold hooks tied to monofila-
