Discussed Ways to
Increase Pr. Visitors

The st. Croix Chamber of Com
merce at its Executive Committee
Meeting last Monday night dis
cussed ways and means to increase
the flow of visitors from Puerto
Rico in the face of a fare differ
entail between Puerto Rico and
ST. Croix and Puerto Rico and St.
Thomas. Mr.. j. Rasmussen sug-
gested that perhaps the local or
g~anization and businesses dealing
with tourists would be willing to
work out a type of discount to
Puerto Ricans coming hereto buy
so that the fare differental would
be absorbed and they would then
travel as readily to st. Croix as
they do to st. Thomas. With this in
mind, the Chamber has arranged
for a meeting of the executives &
the members of the various organ
izations to be held in the Ballroom
of the Government House at 4:30
pm. on Monday, October 22nd.
Everyone who is looking for Tour
list Business is cordially invited to

tremely sound idea.

showed that Senators Gomez,
Maduro and Ottley voted yea"
for the turning over Buck Island
to the Federal Government and
that Senator Millin of the Demo

AS for his vote, he said, Il had
been Administrator from July of
that year, and was not even in
the Legislature.
He told the people that sugar
cane has been in ST. Croix for
more than three hundred years
and the Democratic Party will not
see it 60. Quite different to Sena-
tor Reese, who demand that the
people march on Government
House. The Democrats do not
take this type of irresponsible ac-
ton, Mr.. de Lugo said. Only one
Senator, went to Washington and
saved 5000 acres of st. John, be-
cause the Democratic Party is
nationally affiliated and has its
strength in Congress and the
White House.
The Democrats, he said, will
match the highest bid for the land
and the people of these islands
shall not lose it.
He praised Commissioner Felix
and the Police for the fine man
ner in which they protected the
democratic right of free speech.

affect their life, liberty and pur-
suit of happiness.
He went on to point out that
the platform of the Democratic

he feels that many of the planks

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

d u d E: Heavyweight
Champion John l.. Sullivan
heartily disliked James j.
Corbett, the principal con-
tender, and referred to him
contemptuously as that Cal
ifornia dude"
I'm 1891, he agreed to enter
the ring with Corbett in a
sparring exhibition. To hu-
initiate his opponent, he con-
ceived the monstrouS joke Of
sparring in full dress, reports
Nat Fleischer in 1.-THE Heavy
weight Championship"
HE and Corbett actually
boxed in starched linen and
white ties, with only their
coats removed. But Jim was
unperturbed. He discovered
that Sullivan was made to
order for him.
when the two met for the
championship a year later, he
applied the knowledge he had
acquired and ground his
beefy opponent into ham
burger.

DEAR ABBY
Don't Be Silly, Too, Dear!
By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

DEAR ABBY: We are not
young folks. We have mar
ried children. Three years ago
my husband learned that a
school, time sweetheart, whom
he never ceased to love, was
living in an Eastern city.
While on a business trip, he
drove some distance to spend
the week end at her home.
He told me all about it.
They have correspondent
ever since. Now her husband
recently passed on and she
wrote that she would like to
move to our city because she
has mo one" My husband
thinks we should ask her to
live with us for a while. To
me, this is ridiculous. What
shall I say?

she wants to move to your

4. For best results, each
child must have confidence in
his ability to improve and be
interested in his own physi-
cal development. If you can
show him and encourage him
effectively. the problem will
be solved.
But let me sound one eau
tionary note. Parents and
teachers should watch closely
for such things as defective
vision or a serious lack of
muscular coordination. In
such cases you may need to
consult an optician or physi-
cal therapist. Also an over
weight child has a serious
problem to overcome.
Some examples of success

A teacher I know tested her
incoming first graders on
their ability to climb the
school jungle gym and stand
on it, to go around the rings
and across the ladder. She
found that about one-third
OF her pupils were unable to
do these three things success
fully. They lacked the
strength or the coordination,
or were just afraid to try.
Many of these were the same
children left out of games on
the playground.
To correct the situation the
teacher had each child try to
climb the jungle gym. She
also had them practice other
things like catching and bat
ting balls. By the end of the
school year every child could
do the exercises and every
child was chosen for the
games. There was not a sin
gle isolated one left in the
group.

aged man with whom I have
fallen in love. He has been
married twice, and has four
children. He is presently free
and has asked me to be his
third wife. I am 20 and two
of his children are older than
I. The other two are very

He has custody of all his

weight just doesn't take an
anesthetic 1ocal or generaD
well. Why take unnecessary
chances?
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I am
a healthy person but am
handicapped by foul breath.
My doctor and close friends
tell me that do not have
this trouble, but I am con-
WINGED that I have.-Mr. N.
IN THESE DAYS of high
pressure advertising of prod
ucts that are guaranteed to
overcome halitosis, too many
of us have become obsessed
with the belief that we suf-
fer from bad breath. It is
true that many who think
they have this trouble do not
have it-but, as in your case,
they are hard to convince.
But suppose a person really
has halitosis? The important
thing to do is have a phys
ical checkup to rule out
remedial causes.
For example, some people
have bad breath because they
are mouth breathers. Some
thing obstructs nasal breath
ing and various micro-organ-
isms get into the oral cavity
AS in diseased adenoids, or
an allergic condition that af-
fects the nasal mucous mem
brane, polps or swollen tur-
binates. When these condi-
tions are treated and the
patient breathes normally,
bad breath is overcome. OF
course, when the cause is
something chronic like bron-
chiectasis, chronic bronchi-
tbs. lung abscess, the cure
isn't so easy.
Unhealthy gums and bad
teeth are often the cause.
So are infected tonsils which
may be the source of the
odor. Also, chronic rhinitis
and chronic sinuSitis.
You can see how important
it is to find the cause be-
fore you can correct the con-
dition. It is true that some
times we can't discover it.
All we can ask the patient
to do is use a mouth wash
Of a solution made by mix
ing one teaspoonful of salt
in a glass of warm water.
Candy minis and mild, medi-
Gated mouth washes at least
give the patient a feeling for
cleanliness and acceptability.
Your best friends may not
tell you, but your doctor will.
Follow his suggestions and
you may save yourself much
unnecessary discomfort.

tired couple going to sun
country without enough to
live on, while expecting to
pick up a Job here and there,
is headed for trouble.
5. You're not going to be
completely satisfied with the
climate, no matter where you
go. No climate is perfect.
Rain, intense heat. hurri-
canes, earthquakes, wind and,
fog can come in season IN
retirement country as surely
as snow comes in Duluth.
But you'd be bored If it were
otherwise. Just don't put all
your chips on the weather.
6. Housing in retirement.
land comes in all flavors.
The purchase of a house and
lot is all right If it can be
done for cash, If 1t can be
resold if the husband or wife
dies, or If the husband or
wife will want to live on
there alone If one of them
dies. Otherwise, rental hous-,
ing, at about one-fourth the.
retirement income, is better.
7. There are such essentials,
as bus service when you no
longer can drive or can own
a car; nearness to stores
where you can get competi-
tive prices; closeness to doc
tors who will make calls at.
home and at night; and hos
pitfalls where your medical
insurance is accepted. ss
8. The retirement couple
choosing a retirement home
is wise to look for a plot,
of ground where some beans.
and potatoes will grow. Food
is the largest drain on a.
pension.
9. Finally, a couple should
consider this before moving
anywhere in retirement: You
can have your cake and eat
it, too. Rent, furnished, the
home you have where you
are now, move to the area
you find best, rent furnished
quarters there, and test. II

don't like it, you know what
you can do. If you do like

Professor Of Education, University
Of Southern California
To attain the physical fit
ness goal set for youth by
President Kennedy, it's going
to be necessary for parents
and teachers as well as young
people to take action.
You don't have to be a
tower Of strength to win sue
cess in modern society but
health certainly is an advan-
tage. And health depends to
q considerable extent, of
course, on overall fitness.
Physical fitness can't be
attained by passing a law.
We already have compulsory
physical education classes,
but our children are still too
soft. Nor Is 1t easy to achieve
in the modern city.
So other ways must be
sought. Here are some guild
ing principles discovered by
physical therapists and phys
ical education teachers:
/. Strength is developed by
working against resistance.
Repetition alone will not nee
essarily develop muscles
otherwise a typist's hands
would be as large as a truck
mans. But running hard, do
ing standard exercises until
you are tired, or pushing or
pulling objects that don't
push or pull easily will make
o difference.
2. Coordination Is achieved
by striving consciously for it
during a repeated activity. To
gain coordination in SWIM
ming, diving, golf or throwing
a ball you must concentrate
on the proper form.
8. Speed and endurance
will be developed more easily
after muscles have been es-
tablished and trained.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: You
hear that people who are
much overweight are a men
ace to themselves. Not only
are we supposed to look hor-
rible. but we are liable to
get the most awful diseases
like diabetes. high blood
pressure and coronary di-
sease.
Personally, I think that's
being overdone, but who am
I to say? Here is my prob
lem. I am a 46-year-old
woman who needs a gall
bladder operation. There's no
hurry. but I need it. Now
my doctor tells me that I
should take off at least IS
pounds before the operation.
He says that fat people don't
take an anesthetic we'll. Is
this true, or just some more
Of the same?-Mrs. H.
MOST ANESTHESIOLO-
GISTS agree that admins
tering an anesthetic to the
obese patient Is not as salts
factory as managing the nor
mal-weighted person.
My advice. Mrs. H., is to
follow your doctors SUCCESS
ton and, take off those extra
pounds before surgery.
There's no question you'll
make the job easier for the
surgeon and thereby get a
better job done on yourself.
If you are actually fat
there's difficulty in getting
into your veins (you may
need a TRANSMISSION or other
intravenous medication la
teri; the doctor may have
a hard time inserting the
endotracheal tube down your
throat; and If he decides to
do a spinal anesthesia, ex-
ira layers of fat may inter-
fere with easily getting the
needle into the spinal canal.

MY husband and I both
are SO. We want very much
to retire South when the
pension arrives for my hus-
band in two years, but we
are afraid.
I'VE don't know whether
we can afford it. We are
apprehensive about leaving a
city that has been home for
80 years. We don't really
know what retired life in a
warm climate will be like.
Gould you give us a check
list of things a couple like
us should know before daring
to plan a sunshine retire
ment?"
Many people ask these
questions. Many people at IS
deny themselves the sunshine
retirement because they can't
get answers.
/. A couple with 5000 a
month assured income can
live and die in modest COM
fort in many places in Florida
and Arizona and in some
places in Southern Califor-
mia. Couples by the thou
sands are doing it, often by
living in trailers.
2. Moving from q home
town in snow country to a
strange town in sun country
is a wrench-no matter who
you are. The unfamiliar street
signs are no lasting prob
lem; people are. A switch
from old acquaintance to
people who don't recognize
you will mean that you must
aggressively seek new friends,
or resign yourself to lone
illness. But people are more
receptive to your advances
in a retirement paradise than
in. say. Hartford or Pitts
burgh.
3. Living costs are about
the same all over. One thing
in this area will cost more,
another in that. But the
monthly costs will abou t
balance out. The reason you
can live more cheaply than
where you are now is that
you change standards and
require less when you move
away in retirement.

expect any. On occasion a
