There are probably more
pictures taken during vaca-
lions than during any other
time of the year-and with
good reason. There are new
places, new faces and family
changes and activities that
people like to preserve on
film, both for fun and for
posterity. Hence special pains
should be taken to make
these snapshots really worth
keeping.
One chap we know went
to a lot of trouble to round
UP a big supply Of film,
flashbulbs, and all the other
accessories that count when
it comes to making good pic
tures-then when he arrived
at his vacation resort dis
covered he had left his cam
era at home, some 300 miles
away. Another didn't make
this mistake but found out
when he developed his films,
a few days after returning
home, that his shutter had
been way off in its timing so
that he had not only wasted
his efforts but his film as
we'll.
So we say this: To make
sure your vacation snapshots
turn out well, take along all
you will need to do the job,
and make equally sure your
camera and allied equipment
are in top working order.
The Little Used Camera
This bit of advice is aimed
especially at those who use
their cameras only on spe-
cial occasions-like a vaca-
ton. Just because your cam
era is little used this fact is
no guarantee that it should
function perfectly the few
times that you do use It.
AS a matter of fact the
camera that is put away for
long periods can gather dust
or can be adversely affected
by temperature and humidi-
ty changes. So give your
camera, flash gun batteries
in particularly and other
equipment a check-up before
taking off for your summer
outing.
The best way is to shoot
UP a roll of film, shooting
some pictures with natural
light and others with the
flash attachment. After
processing you will be able
to tell whether all is in order
or not. If you even suspect
that something is wrong take
your camera or other suspect
equipment to a qualified re-
pair man for a going over.
The cost will be slight COM
pared to the value you might
lose in snapshots that can
never be retaken.
Make Check List
After you are sure that you
are really ready to take pic
lures make up q check list
of all the items that you
want to take along. Take
our well-meant advice and
don't go overheard.
After all a vacation is
meant for relaxation for the
rest Of the family as well as
for yourself and you will not
want to turn a refreshingly
pleasant pastime into a
chore. And that can easily
happen if you take every
thing from camera to dark
room.
Stick to the simple things
that you really will need.
Your camera, Of course, as
well as a supply of the black

SWIMMING IN OUR PROGRAM

SWIMMING IN U PROGRAM
OVER THE past few years several persons have died by
drowning, which is alarming, to say the least. And what makes
it all the more tragic is that there is water all around US,
TO GET IN OR out Of St. Croix, one must cross water
AS an island, fishing has been one of our major occupations,
which means that a stable portion Of the population turns
to the sea for a living, and an even greater number depend
upon the sea for food, fish being an important item of our
diet.
WHY, THE many deaths by drowning and thefact that
so many people do not swim? We are sure that we do not
know the answer. but could venture a suggestion or two
that might help the situation.
IN GREAT portions Of the United States where neither
lake, nor river, nor ocean is near, the swimming pool is an
important part of both the physical education classes and
the creation centers. There are several young peoples organi
cations which have swimming pools in practically all their
buildings, as do hotels and other public places. But out this
way, everything is left to chance, and the folly of such a
system is catching up with us in the tragic loss of life.
WITHOUT belaboring the situation, immediate steps
should be taken to institute swimming in the physical educa.
Nion curriculum as Wellas the playground and recreation cen.
tiers, by the Department Of Education. Nor is this difficult to
include in the present program
THERE m beaches on the north, east, west and south
of this Island of ours, and many Of them are wonderful and
and safe. lust imagine how welcome such a program would
be to the boys and girls, men and women of the island. In
these Virgin Islands all it takes is a trip to the beaches closest
such as Little Bay, the area near the radio station or Cramef
Park in the ChristianSted area and Sandy Point and other
beaches in Frederiksted. IF it turns out that some of the beach
es closest are not up to standard, there is no reason in the
world why the proper work Of cleaning, installing the necess-
airy facilities, and the like to make them safe and acceptable
THE DEPARTMENT Of Education should include
swimming IN its program and, as a people we should resolve
that no one in these parts should die by drowning just be-
cause he cannot swim, and the time to begin is now.

INTERPRETIVE REPORT

Berlin or no war at all, the
experts say.
This is what Mr.. Mcnamara
did, deliberately, on his return
recently from an inspection
tour of nuclear fighting units
in West Germany. He told re-
porters-and the >world-that
the United States will use "any
means necessary" to defend its
rights in West Berlin. The
"any means" he made clear,
include nuclear weapons, bomb
ers, ICBMs, Polaris missiles

The Russians quickly matched
the threat.
"This showdown will be far
from local in character for the
United States and its partners, y
Izvestia said. "In the age of
global rockets the first to
perish in the flames will in
evitably be those who kindle
them"
This satisfied American Off
cials. 1t meant in the admin
stration's analysis that the
Kremlin fully realizes that a
showdown could bring alI-out
war between the United States
and Russia.
U. S. Believed Stronger
When the threats are on this
level, the experts argue, the
Russians can make only one
rational move-back down.

sure that if either side can win

American officials note with
some satisfaction that the
Kremlin now threatens to blow
us off the globe if we fight to
stay in West Berlin.
The Russian threat, printed
last week in the government
newspaper "Isvestia." is taken
here to be sign that Red
leaders thoroughly understand
the recent message of Secretary
of Defense Mcnamara who said
in effect: We are prepared to
devastate Russia if that is what
it takes to stay in Berlin.
The two great powers, then.
are threatening each other
with nuclear war and hoping
that the other side will take
heed and back down. Why are
the threats necessary? And who
will prevail?
Administration leaders an
swer this way:
First of all, the Communists
appear to be far more serious
this year than last about sign
ing a peace treaty" with the
East Germans and trying to
oust France. Britain and the
United States from West Ber-
lin.
War Seen Possible
An armed showdown this
winter is believed to be entirely
possible because we are pledged
to stay there.
We want to avoid a fight, of
course, so we want the Russians
to understand clearly what they
face if they persist in their
political aggression" in Ber-
lin.
They face various kinds of
>non-military punis h m n t,
ranging from possible economic
sanctions to an accelerated
arms race which Russia can
less afford than we can.
But also they face possible
war.
Unfortunately for the West,
however, Russia holds almost
all of the cards in a Berlin
war.
West Berlin is an island no
miles inside Communist ter
ritory, surrounded by 20 Rus
sian divisions. Gen. Maxwell
D. Taylor, new chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff, once
said that Berlin has always
been untenable as a military
position"
The Reds have more than
enough military power to cut
off Allied access to the city and
overwhelm the 1000 Allied
soldiers there.
Conventional Attack Futile
If the Reds took the, city,
NATO could try to rescue it
only by launching a broad Of
fensive from West Germany.
Put NATO forces are not geared
TO the offensive, and they are
far too few in numbers to pen
citrate Red defenses.
It would do us little good,
then, to threaten the Russians
with a conventional, limited
war over Berlin.
Only if we are prepared to
use nuclear weapons can We
hope to scare off the Russians.
In fact, we must threaten
all-out nuclear war against the
Russian heartland, the admin
istration believes, because we
might not win a limited" nu-
clear war. The Russians have
small nuclear weapons in Eu-
rope in profusion - perhaps
more than we have.
Also, it may not be possible
to limit a nuclear war even if
both sides try. No one has had
any experience in atomic wars,
so the experts can only argue
theory: but Mr.. McNamara's
deputy, Roswell Gilpatric, once
told a press conference that he
doubts if nuclear wars can be
limited, and other administra-
ton leaders certainly have sim
liar doubts.
Mcnamara Brought Showdown
Therefore, the United States
must threaten total war over

Discrepancy Noted
In Canada Census

MONTREAL (JTA)-The Canadi-
an Jewish Congress considers 254,-
S68 the correct figure for the num-
Der of Jews in Canada, DR.. Louis
Rosenberg, director of the Con-
gress Bureau of Social and Eco
nomic Research, said. The census
figures on nationalities, released by
the Dominion Bureau of Statistics
earlier, gives two figures on Jews
254, 1868 as those reporting Jewish
religion and 1884 as those re-
porting Jewish ethnic origin.
DR.. Rosenberg said the discrep-
ancy arises from misunderstand-
ing, either by the census enumer-
ator or the person interviewed, of
the questions regarding religion
and ethnic origin. Many who de-
scribe themselves as of the Jewish
religion list themselves as of the
ethnic origin of the country from
which they or their parents came
to Canada. DR.. Rosenberg said
that in fact those of the Jewish
religion are also of Jewish origin
except for a few converts to Juda-
ism.
