St. Thomas, Virgin Islands
My dear Mr.. President:
have the honor to return herewith, without my APP
|proval, Bill No. 1881, Third Legislature OF the Virgin IS
lands Of the United States, Regular Session, 1860, Act to
Provide for a Food Distribution Program for Needy Fami-
hes in ST. Thomas, ST. Croix, and ST. John, Virgin Islands
and for Other Purposes passed by the Legislature on
May 20 and presented to me for executive action on May
|23, 1860.
This bill purports to authorize participation by the
|Governaent of the Virgin Islands in a food distribution
program Of the United States Department Of Agriculture
whereby surplus food items are made available to the
states and territories which make formal requests for such
assistance.
III a matter Of public knowledge that, several years
|ago, such a food distribution program using. federal sur
plus foodstuffs was in effect throughout the Virgin Islands
and that the results we're far from satisfactory. Thereafter,
The Government of the Virgin Islands continued to partici-
oate in the federal distribution of surplus food items, but
only for public institutions and school lunch programs
throughout the islands. At this time, when it is known and
that the economic condition of the Virgin Is
lands is at its highest peak, and there is no unemployment
in the islands, Bill No. 1881, authorizing such a food distri-
button program, would seem to be based more on political
|overtones than on actual necessity.
Two years ago, in the month of May 1858, the Commits
sioner Of Social Welfare of the Government of the Virgin
Islands presented this matter to the Virgin Islands Board
of Social Welfare for consideration and recommendation
Because the findings and recommendations OF the Virgin
Islands Board of Social Welfare, at that time, apply with
equal force and effect to the situation at the present time,
and because ] am fully in accord with those findings and
recommendations, ] shall quote below the pertinent por-
tons Of the Boards letter to former Governor Walter A.
Gordon dated May 6, 1853;
The whole question was carefully studied
by the Board, and earnestly considered not only
on the basis of the information secured but also
in the light-of the knowledge by members Of the
benefits and problems in general involved in the
! distribution of surplus foods direct to families,
{ and their awareness in particular Of the expert
ence in the Virgin Islands in the operation of ST
milar programs in the past. After this study and
full consideration of the subject, the Board came
to the unanimous decision that it is not in the best
interest Of the Virgin Islands as whole to reacti-
vate a program Of direct distribution Of surplus
foods, because Of the following considerations:

s'The cost to the Virgin Islands involved in
operating a food distribution program would

LEGISLATIVE RECORD
Continued From Yesterday.


This provision, most certainly, fully protects those VIII
are unable to pay for medical care because OF fnancla
inability.
Last year L recommended that the Code be amends
to eliminate the provision for free medical care for infant
and school children. The Legislature did not agree wit
this proposal. Now the Legislature seeks to extend tn
provision for free medical care not only to infants an
school children and prisoners, but also to all persons i
the islands who are over IS years of age and to all person
having an income of less than 500 per month. This Woult
make bad legislation even worse. I shall not become
party to such an unWarranted public reflection on tn
people OF the islands.
For these reasons, I have disapproved Bill No. 1128.
Sincerely yours,

My dear Mr.. President:
/ have the honor to hand you herewith draft Of a bill
to appropriate $4,000 additional for the Alexander Ha
milton Airport for the purpose of providing necessar.
landscaping on. the east, west and south areas OF the neV
terminal building, estimated to cost $4,000; and installing
Of substantial screen walls above the canopies IN the nev
terminal building, estimated to cost $4,000; or a total 9
$4,000.
AS the Legislature knows, the new Alexander Hamil
ton Airport terminal building is rapidly reaching the stag
Of completion and should be ready for occupancy W1thn
the next go days. 1t is urgently necessary to landscape sur
rounding areas. Also, the c~oncourse area of the new termi
nal building, where the canopies are located, are on tn
south side Of the building and due to trade winds and driv
ing rains it is considered advisable to install substantial
screen walls to keep out the rains and further to protec
the airport counters.
Both these items are considered absolutely importan
and necessary. i recommend that this appropriation bill b
enacted.
