icy tod him that perhaps someone had taken the last
lyne. However, We raised enough cain and all of a sud
den they orougnC out a Duncn OF them and put them on
the counter.
We tried to get a plane to come back to st. Croix
and were told that the flights were all filled up, and
there were several people on the waiting list trying to
get to st. Croix, burt they could not get any flights to
take them there. Mr.. President, / belleve. that Caribair
has a franchise to fly into the Virgin Islands-not just to
st. Thomas, and am surprised that they can put an ad
in the paper advertising ST. Thomas alone, and having
four tngnUs to every one that goes to ST. Croix.
Iwould therefore like to have the Commissioner of
Commerce come before us ana explain 10 US just now
the money that we are approprlatlng 10 advertlse these
are beng spent. IVY DroUner visited several
travel agents ana asked them why they dont SEND peo-
pie to 81. Crolx. Ana they told nm InaI SOnneCmeS 1t

wrong with that situation. And 1 Would like to nave a
thorough investigation to find out why Car1Dalr land
this seems to me to be a continuous thlngl does not do

THE PRESIDENT: Senator, the thought occurred
to me that we should find out whether the ad IN that
newspapers PAID for byehe Government or by Caribair.
Mr.. LAWAETZ: That's what / would like to find
out myself, but even if it was paid tor by Carlbair
H PRESIDENT: If it is paid for by caribair, l
hardly think 1T would be a legislative matter. Ii 1t is
paidfor through contributions by the local government,
then 1 think Cnat you are standing on good grounds. But,
| think that we should find out Wnetner that ad is paid
for by the Government.
MR.. LAWAETZ. Mr.. President, / still question
whether an airline that has a franchise to fly to the
Virgin Islands can take an advertisement advertising
one Island to the exclusion of the others.
H PRESIDENT: | agree with you there, Sena-
tor, but the question as to how the money IS spent tor
advertising snould be gone into.
MR.. LAWAETZ: | know that my brother spent
several thousand dollars to nave this IN the CarIDalr

A CHRONOLOGY
l8o8-l934

The United States came to the
aid of Cuban independence fight
ers who had been waging a bitter
three-year war against Spanish
rulers. After the swift Spanish
American War, the United States
was ceded Cuba and Puerto Rico.
After three years of United States
military rule, Cuba was turned
back to an elected Cuban Presi-
dent and Congress. Through the
Platt Amendment we maintained
the right to intervene in Cuban
affairs "for the preservation of
Cuban independence" We also OBJ
tained the right to establish our
naval base at Guantanamo.
The Platt Amendment was re-
Sented deeply by Cubans, even
though United States intervention
in some cases saved the country
from anarchy resulting from bit
ter political divisions. Cubans
charged that tie interventions
tended to keep governments in
power that favored our foreign
investments in Cuba.
Our right to intervene was
ended by mutual agreement in
1884, but we retained by lease the
naval base at Guantanamo.

Uganda does have many Of the
assets to become one of the lead
ers of the newly emerging African
nations. For the last few years it
has been searching for a leader
strong enough to guide it towards
this goal, and now appears to have
found such a man in the new
Prime Minister - Milton Obote.
But it is not Mr.. Obote alone, who
will carry the brunt of political
responsibility. 1t is also the many
able and intelligent members Of
his own party, the Uganda Peo-
pies Congress UPC), and of the
party in coalition with the UPC,
the Kebaka Yekka, as well as
many equally able members of the
opposition party, the Democratic
Party ID. PD who will all con-
tribute towards the eventual sue
cess of their country. One cannot
help but feel that with the lead

The former British protectorate
Of Uganda became the 10th
member of the United Nations
Thursday. When I was there
last summer, one of Uganda'S
leading citizens told me, that he
had just finished a tour of the
world and was dismayed to find
that most people, particularly in
America, looked puzzlingly at him
when he said he was from Ugan-
da. "They thought they had
heard of it, but spoke of 1t as
Wuganda, or Buganda (actually
this was a pretty close unsus-
pecting guess, as there is king
dom in Uganda called Buganda)
or Raganda."
Why has Uganda, which gained
her independence on october 9
and Is certainly much more
stable politically and economi-
cally than many other African
countries, including her neigh
bors Kenya and Tanganyika,
received little or no atten-
ton in the world, and particu-
larly in America? The answer lies,
basically, in the fact that Uganda
has maintained an unusually slow
but steady-pace in her quest
for independence. AS one scholar
of Uganda political history told
me: "The trouble with Uganda
was that everyone knew she was
going to get her independence and
thus there was nothing for the
politicians to yell about" She has
had no white settler problem, or
Mau Mau problem, both of which
have kept her neighbor Kenya in
the news. Some people feel that
she has no one outstanding tour
ist attraction as does Tanganyika
which can proudly claim the now
famous SHOWS of Kilimanjaro. But,
while Uganda perhaps has no
equal to Kilimanjaro, she has, in
her own right, many other attrac-
tions which the world traveller
would do well to investigate.

Democracy is still upon its

from degeneration if the inner

recognizes that whereas Tangan-
yika and Kenya have huge areas
of barren land, Uganda, from one
end to another is enveloped in
lush, green vegetation. Nearly ev-
cry African family in Uganda owns
land on which is grown quanti-
ties of bananas, which make up
the staple diet for the Uganda
African. Another significant and
impressive aspect of Uganda is the
very real friendlineSs and happi-
