Nearly 1000 personS-includ-

Some staged a sit-down in

bodily by policemen.
Twenty-three Of the demon

charged with disorderly con-

co-ordinated the protest, as
sisted by leaders of American

The picketing was marked
by performances by choral

I'M
gislature which in 1945 adopted
the Virgin Islands Full Employ
ment Act which declared full en-
ployment and full production as
public policy. The Virgin Islands
Employment Service has, now
ever. cautioned restraint since this
agency has found evidence of IN
unemployment manifested in the
holding of more than one job by
some of our people--no doubt to
help to make ends meet. And this
despite the existence of substan-
tial shortage of labor in many oc-
cupational categories.
q thn fqne of this truly fantas-
tic economic development, | ask
YOU whether our workers are re-
ceiving a fair share of this in
creased prosperity? Let me put it
another way: Figures recently re-
icased with respect to the value
of the things we import indicate
that we imported merchandise to
the tune of Sab million during
1860. How much of those imports,
in terms of value, were intended
for. and to improve the standard
of living of, the average worker
l put these questions in order
to suggest that | do not believe
our labor force is receiving a fair
share Of this increased prosperity.
In 1858, the Virgin Islands EN-
ployment Service published a Job
Opportunity Survey in which it
was said that although the cost
Of living in the Virgin Islands is
among the highest found any
where in the United States, its
territories and other possessions,
The average hourly wage rates for
many occupational categories are
among the lowest" Available data
contained in the Eighth Annual
Report of the Employment Service
for 1859 pointed to a rather clear
picture of sustained growth in en-
ployment and wages yet en-
ployees worked on the average
for one and one-third employers.
Wage rates, of course, have MOI
been static. For example, while
employees covered by the Fedora.

ware? Are the bulk of them &C
cupying adequate or substandard
housing?
All of these inquiries, of course,
relate to our economic policy and
its aims. l would therefore Sub
NIT that the basic aim of our eco
nome policy, as Governor Pale
Won5ky postulated in his appear
ance beSre the Senate Insular At
fairs Committee, is the develop
mant Of these Islands in the in
terest of all of our people, the
raising of the standard of living
by increasing individual real pur-
chasing power, that is to say, to
create the pre-conditions which
would allow our people to buy
more commodities out of the dol
lars they earn today, and to n
crease our total wealth SO as to
facilitate the attainment of a high
er standard of social services and
administration. Is this basic aim
the informing principle of our ex-
banding economy today? Let's
take a look.
Our economy is buoyant, our
Treasury Golfers r heavy with
increasing public revenue; Gov
ernor Paiewonsky by authorizing
an unprecedented number of pub
lie projects is putting employment
opportunities at the disposal OF
our people and giving impetus to
the circulation Of more dollars as
the wage bill increases; the build
ing industry continues to expand
in response to an expanding tour
list trade and an expanding popu-
lation.
A sample of our unprecedented
prosperity can be found in three
significant facts. First, the money
teing left in the islands by tourists
has jumped from $1.8 mil. IN l95o
to more than SAT million in 1860;
second, public revenue from all
sources, local and Federal. We're
approximately $50 million in 1854.
BY 1860, these revenues had reach
ed the amount of STA million;
and third, full employment is now
achieved or we r quite close to
its achievement. That IS to say,
everyone who is able to work and
who wants to work can get a job.
The modest pride that we should
take il this accomplishment is
grounded in the vision of our Lee

The trip actually took 80
days. Stole started from the
Colonial Yacht Club at CO.
lonial Beach June IL and re-
turned July IL.
Boat Built at Cambridge
Aptly = named Fancy Free,
Stolle's boat has a 10-foot
beam and draft of 4 feet. Built
by the Dickerson Boat Co. of
Cambridge, Md, she is like 35
others on the East Coast but
the only one to make a long
sea voyage.
Fancy Free carries 432 square
feet Of sail and with the addi-
ton of a jenny totes 500 square
feet. Stole has owned her since
she was launched early last
year.
Stole, who got his boating
experience from racing every
thing from hydroplanes to
class sailboats, varied her de-
sign by having the cabin ex-
tended and adding a naviga-
ton table. There are four
berths, plus galley and COM
partments for his ham radio
gear as well as ship-to-shore.

fuel and often provide added

Binoculars are of two types,
those fitted with prisms or
with a simple series of con-
cave and convex lenses. The
latter offers only low magni-
fication in large clumsy sizes.
Prism binoculars magnify by
sending light rays zigzag
through a series of prisms, pro-
viding greater magnifying pow
er and a larger field of view
with a relatively smaller, light
weight instrument.
Many binoculars on the
market today are imports,
most Of them from Japan, the
balance from Germany, France
and England. Whether you
plan to buy a domestically-
built product or imported BIZ
noculars and plan to spend
$25 or as much as $500, there
are important features to check
for, many of them having an
effect on the price.

Prism binoculars are recon-
mended for marine use. These
may be either CT or IF type.
CT indicates central focusing;
IF individual focusing. Gen.
tral focusing gives speedier
one-hand adjustment by focus
ing both eye pieces with a
single knob. With individual
focusing both eye pieces are
adjusted separately. Individual
focus binoculars are somewhat
sturdier and less subject to
moisture damage.
AS a general rule for marine
use, select binoculars tn a t
magnify six to eight times.
Higher powered binoculars are
hard to hold and have a
limited field Of view. Binocu-
lars will be identified by a
series of numbers such as 6x30,
7x35 or 7x50. These numbers
indicate the magnifying power
and the diameter of the larger
or objective lens. For example,
a 6x35 binoculars magnifies six
times and has a 30-millimeter
diameter objective lens.
A new development is found
in "zoom" lens models which
have added versatility. Their
lens can be focused for dis
tance at the indicated power
of, for example, six to eight
magnification. Then, without
refocusing it can be "zoomed"
to a higher power, usually
double that of the initial focus
to furnish a closeup Of a
distant object. With the
"zoom" lens in use. however,
a much smaller field remains
in view.

a brighter image but make the

Then, when he was 300 to

without lights had to depend
on a single lantern.

two at a time by wedging him
self in corners. His food came
from cans. He ate lots of candy
for quick energy.
When he was tired he noticed
that the waves seemed higher
and the seas rougher. When
he could nap a little or eat a
bite of food, they seemed
calmer. Often he had to con-
vince himself that other lone
voyagers must have encoun-
tered similar weather. He spent
part Of his time reading books
to see how they had Jared.
When the seas finally
calmed, he hove to and had a
good sleep. Although he hit
some adverse winds later, he
finally made Bermuda in 10
days and got a royal reception.
Commodore Fenton Trimming
ham welcomed him and the
club made him an honorary
member. Next day he helped
crew a 3S-foot boat owned by
a United States Air Force
major to victory in a race,
then sailed his own boat all
around the island.
The return took 81a days
and again he hit storms-this
time squalls with winds up to
so knots that blew the tops
off the waves. The gusts did
not last. however, and the seas
were not as high.
Once a friendly plane
dropped him three cans of cold
beer and some peanuts. On
another occasion he signaled
a submarine to stop and OBJ
tanned his position because the
squalls had kept him from
shooting the sun for several
days.
Aground in Chesapeake
At last he made Chesapeake
Bay again, only to have the
long voayage come to a rather
inglorious conclusion. Forced
to use his auxiliary, he ran
out of gas and ran aground
trying to get some at Smith
Point. 1t took a bay fisherman
to pull Fancy Free off.
Now Stole is thinking of a
possible voyage to California,
where his mother lives, or
maybe the Windward or Lee
ward Islands.
Will he go alone? A bachelor,
he says. "If l have to have a
crew, it's best to marry one.
