Indenture Service in
The US. Virgin Is.
New York Ashley L,
international Secre-
tary : Treasurer Of t h e
Brotherhood of Sleeping
Car, Train, Chair G a r,
Coach Porters and Attend
ants, AFL-CIO1CLC, has
filed a complaint with the
Labor Department at Wash
ington, D. G., concerning
Importation Of alien labor
for indenture service, ac-
cording to a press release.
Totten, who has just re
turned from a two month
vacation there, states as
follows: Continental and
native employers are i'm
porting foreign laborers,
skilled and unskilled in the
American Virgin Islands
under a contractual agree
ment supervised by the
United States immigration
and Naturalization Service
stationed there.
These workers, said he,
do not include some 400 to
600 who are already under
contract with the Virgin IS
lands Corporation to har-
vest the sugar cane crop at
St. Croix.
The least of these, states
Totten, are the women do
nestle workers who are
paid $4,000 a month and
provided with suitable liv-
ing quarters by the employ
er who must. also post a
bond and other provisions.
Continuing, Totten states
that skilled workers are
paid comparable to wages
on the mainland and the I'm
skilled receive a minimum
of seventy-fve cents an
hour. Tipping averages the
same as on the mainland.
