Prune Conifers

The conifers should be pruned
now. It is important that they
be given an annual pruning to
keep them compact and within
bounds. While they may be
pruned at any time it is good
practice to do this just before
the new growth starts so that
the pruning cuts are quickly
covered. The spring pruning
will normally keep them COM
pact and attractive, but should
new shoots stand out during
the summer it is we'll to snip.

RIGHT WAINWRIGHT JOE
EVERYONE IN these Islands, and fellc

EVERYONE IN these Islands, and fellow Virgin Island
ers on the mainland are unanimous in their feeling OF SatlSfac-
ton at the appointment Of Attorney Ahmeric L. Christian as
United States Attorney for the Virgin Islands. He is the first
native to hold the position since the Hon. Cyril Michael now a
Judge Of the Municipal Court in St Thomas.
IT is ALWAYS matter Of personal pride and satiSfac-
ton when a qualified native is named to a position of respon-
sibi]ity. for regardless of what may be said, honor in a mans
own country is undoubtedly the most gratifying. This brings
further, unquestioned proof that the Virgin Islands have come
of age. We now have qualified natives in practically every
field who are ready, willing, and very able to represent then
home.
ATTORNEY CHRISTIAN is certainly no stranger. He
has practiced law in these islands for many years, and is highly
respected in his profession. After graduating from Columbia
COLLEGE. he served a tour in the Armed Forces, and then grad
uated from Columbia University Law School 1t is the opinion
of this paper that no more qualified person could have been
selected for the position.
THERE WAS a time long ago when the position OF Y. ;.
Attorney had to be filled by a continental. Then came a break
through by the Hon. James s. Bough, who occupied the posi-
ton for many years before going to the United Nations Then
politics entered the picture, and naturally with each party
change came a change in many positions.
THE GOVERNOR, and the Interior Department who
must have spearheaded the move are to be commended on
their choice, and this paper wants to go on record as endorsing
the action in the fullest.
TO ATTORNEY CHRISTIAN must go wishes for many
wears of success and satisfaction in his new position.

and 1848; and at least $1O0 for each coin dated from 1859
to 1913. These are the lowest prices we pay, most coins
will beWorth more. Highest prices paid for Gold 20 Francs
and so Francs pieces.
Because of the many different coins and the importance
of their condition, we cannot tell you exact prices without
seeing the coins first.

Housing Seen as q Social Aim

some of our critics that the
low rent housing program
has created rather than elm
iinated slums. 1t is sim.
ply not true that public
housing, per Sc, creates ju-
venile delinquency and other
social traits. These are the
ills of society no matter what
kind of financial assistance
the housing enjoys.
We must recognize the fact,
however, that public housing
feels the impact Of great pop
ulation centers In our mo-
bile society. many newcom-
ers from rural areas or areas
outside the continental
United States seeking en-
ployment or improved oppor-
tunities. 1t serves many
families under stress, perma-
nent or temporary; in short,
its doors are open to needy
people, whether the need is
economic or social or health.
We are now working in
close association with the De-
partment Of Health, Educa-
ton and Welfare to co-ordi-
nate our facilities to better
serve these new urban fami-
lies facing the seemingly sim
pie, but actually basic prob

they have never before
known. At the same time, this
housing is provided for the
majority, those who need

ings for themselves and their
children.

public housing has, we be-
lieve, demonstrated that 1t is
not only a desirable. but an
essential feature Of our Gov
ernment's basic program Of
creating "safe, decent, and
sanitary" housing for all Of

to make our resources more

Administration regularly in
forms the Public Housing
Administration of defaulted
housing properties, many OF
them multiple dwelling units.
The PHA is urging local au-
thorities to investigate the
suitability of such housing

A considerable amount OF
public housing has been ere
ated through this method.
The above mentioned are
only q few of the numerous
new programs and ideas
which have been planned and
undertaken by our agency.
However. our principal pur-
pose and function continues
to be the creation Of new
housing for those who need
it most and can afford it the
least.
To carry out this program,
we have established two ma
jor goals:
First, to improve overall
design of our developments
This does not mean simply
better architecture in build
ing construction, but better
site selection and landscape
planning; in effect. to create
homes that are "livable" and
not institutional"
Second, to give wider re-
cognition to the fact that
some living in public housing
need guidance in the field of
social welfare to create bet

bors. I do not accept for one

By MARIE c. MCGUIRE
Commissioner. Public Housing Administration

25th anniversary Of the public
housing program in the
United States, It was on
that date in 1897 that Presi-
dent Roosevelt signed into
law legislation establishing
the fact that housing Of low
income people was q concern
Of the Federal Government.
This legislation. known as
the Housing Act of 1887, in
corporated the principle that
shelter for our citizens was
no longer exclusively q sample
contractual relationship be-
tween buyer and seller; be-
tween landlord and tenant.
In effect, housing became a
social aim of the Govern
ment.
So. during this month of
September, we in public
housing are observing our
silver anniversary. Twenty
five years is q healthy age
for g program, just as 1t is
for an individual. 1t marks
the attainment Of full ma
turity, 1t covers a period of
full experience. 1t consti-
tutes an historical landmark,
permitting objective scrutiny
of the past - its successes,
its failures. its errors. 1t is,
furthermore, q vantage point
from which to take q good
hard look into the future.
What. In q word, can the
low-rent housing program Of
fer the United States in its
seemingly never-ending ef-
fort to provide the American
standard Of dwelling for all
Of our people2
Accomplishment
At the end of the first
quarter century, where does
public housing stand? What
has 1t accomplished?
During these Is years, the
low-rent program has pro-
vided housing g to approxi-
mately z million persons. To-
day, about 2 million persons
are living in the $4,000 plus
homes produced under the
program. More than half of
them are minors. The ten
ant population is expected to
be increased by roughly 430,-
900 persons when the pres
entity programmed 10000 new
dwellings are occupied. Near
ly half Of the scheduled
homes are planned to be de-
signed especially for use by
elderly persons.
This local-Federal program
has done much to improve
the quality Of our national
housing inventory. but there
is still q tremendous existing
need which must be met.
AS President Kennedy point
ed out in his housing mes
sage to Congress early in
1861: Is. Fourteen million
American families cur
rently live In substandard or
deteriorating homes"
The Stcndord
Obviously, we cannot be
satisfied while so many fam
lilies still live in housing
which does not meet the
American standard.
I have spoken Of Federal
goals In the field Of housing.
Let me here emphasize the
local character Of our pro-
gram. Low rent public
housing projects are con-
ceived, planned and devel-
oped by local communities
through their established To-
cal housing authorities.
Homes produced in Coop
Grafton with PHA are locally
owned by public-corporate
agencies established under
State housing law. PHA fl
nancial assistance consists of
planning and construction
loans, which are later repaid
with interest at the time the
local housing authority per-
manently finances its project
Evening star., 1962-09-15

through the sale Of its bonds
in the private money mar
kets. After the homes are
completed and occupied, Fed
eral financial assistance Is
limited to an annual subsidy
to enable low rents to be
charged.
Local Affairs
Public housing is In no
sense Government" housing.
While the PHA provides fl
nancial and technical help,
and is required to audit local
practices. the program does
not constitute Intervention
by Washington" into local af-
fairs. All but three Of the
so States-Utah, Oklahoma,
and Wyoming r have recog-
nized the need for the low
rent program and have
adopted the necessary ena-
bling legislation.
PHA is working with local
authorities throughout tn e
country on the planning and
development Of some 10000
additional dwelling units. Al
though we are far from be-
ing ashamed Of what this
agency has produced in the
past, we confidently expected
these new homes to be bet
ter. We are planning to make
them better. When using the
word better" I do not mean
structurally sounder as pro-
lection against the elements.
I mean better designed for
better living, better located to
fit into the overall commu-
nifty they are created to serve.
In the past all too much
public housing has been built
along the barracks concept,
purely utilitarian shelter. We
propose to build homes to
create an environment Of full
living for people, not simply
the warehousing Of people.

Cline in Hospital
With Hip Wound,
Out Several Duys

NEW YORK, June 7 (AP) -
Ty Cline. Cleveland outfielder
was resting in Lenox Hill
Hospital today with an aggra-
waited hip wound but expects to
rejoin the Indians in Boston
Saturday.
Cline was hospitalized last
night after reopening the old
wound when he fell backward
making a catch of a long fly
by Elston Howard Of the YAM
KEGS in the first inning. The
would began bleeding freely.
They finally stopped the
bleeding about two hours or so
after I got to the hospital, "
Cline said. But the doctor says
I'll have to stay here at least
until tomorrow night or maybe
Saturday. I figure on being able
to rejoin the team in Boston
Saturday and it'll probably be a
day or so before I can get back
to playing"
Gene Green, Indians catch
er-outfielder, also was taken to
Lenox Hill for X-rayS after he
was hit on the left leg by his
own foul while taking batting
practice. but his injury was not
believed serious.
