has Ildu a pIOlOullO dllO uAl-
planned effect on the women
of the world, the Twentieth
Century Club was told yes
terday.
The emergency program
promoted by former Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover, the late
Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia of
New York and a Polish dip
lomat to help desperately
situated European children
in the wake of World War
II-became the basis for the
u. Ms International Chill
dren's Fund, the group was
told by Mrs. Grace Barley.
UNICEF, in turn, has
served as a bridge of un-
derstanding b etween the
women of the world1 to an
extent never envisaged by its
founders, said Mrs. Barley,
who is UNICEF's liaison Of
ficer to non-governmental
organizations.
The speaker cited expert
ences of her own, in several
UNICEF missions abroad, to
prove her point.
Most memorable to her,
she said, was an occasion
when she met with a delega-
ton of women from a re-
mote and primitive province
in the Asiatic part of the
Soviet Union.
Common Ground Found
"It seemed at first that we
had absolutely nothing in
com mon about which we
could talk" she said. These
were women from such a
backward area that cir
mothers had been beheaded
in 1920 because the women
thought the Bolshevik revo-
luton meant their release
from purdah."
The BolSheviks had said
that purdah must go. Mrs.
Barley continued, "but the
women's husbands beheaded
them rather than allow it,"
To her surprise, the speak
er related, she found the
Russian women in forme e d
about a UNICEF effort to
achieve a u. N. Declaration
on the rights of children.
This declaration, whic h
took from 1946 to 1859 to
hammer out in a fashion ac-
ceptable to the many nations
and cultures represented in
the U. N. has itself had pro-
found effect, although it had
no binding force, the speaker
said.
New and Better Life
In Bolivia, for instance,
she said, where it previously
had been the practice to start
children working in the tin
mines after they reached the
age of 8, the minimum age
jumped to 16 after the dec
laration was passed.
Women in many countries,
banding together to help
their children, have found a
new and better life for them
selves, she added.
Herbert Hoover also de-
serves the credit for suggest
ing, after the m m e diate
European need was met, that
the temporary children'S
agency be transformed into
TJNICEF, to help children in
developing nations, said Mrs.
Barley. She has been with
the agency since shortly after
it was created.
Now, she said, UNICEF
does relatively little work in
Europe, whose recovery has
been so remarkable, especial
ly today with the Common
Market, that they are now
helping u.s."
UNICEF now has 459 prof.
ects operating on all five
continents, she saddle of
them in Africa, 116 in Asia,
65 in the Mediterranean area,
141 in the Americas and only
81 in Europe.

PRIMA DONNA

G-GIRL

From Government Girl
to Prima Donna-that is
the story Of Joanna Neal,
starring tonight, Sunday
and Monday in the Opera
Society's "Ariadne auf
Naxos," in Lisner Auditor
ium.
Several years ago, short
ly after graduating. from
North Texas State College.
Joanna decided to continue
her music studies in the
east. But to finance this, the
Greenville, Tex. girl needed
a job. So she learned typ
ing well enough to pass a
Civil Service examination
and came to Washington
to work for the Treasury
Department.
While here, Joanna re-
calls. she didn't do much
except work and save my
money so that I could go
on to New York to study"
She soon saved enough to
realize her ambition and,
armed with a scholarship
for vocal study, headed for
New York.
Since then, her blossom
ing career has led to per-
formanceS in such widely
scattered places as Ger
many, Italy and Canada.
where she sang "Salome"
a few weeks ago.
Now, returning to Wash
ington as a full-fledged
prima donna, the young
soprano hopes to find time,
in between rehearSalS and
performances, to browse in
Georgetown's antique shops
and to see the friends she
knew during her Govern
ment Girl days.

sion in the crash program this year, the remainder, hope
fully, to be included in the capital budget for the fiscal
year 1863.
i am also including an appropriation of 500, 1000 for

LEGISLATIVE RECORD

The o-vercrowded classroom condition In our pub
lie schools has been a subject of general discussion The
studyrecently conducted by the Commissioner OF Educa-
ton revealed that the schools today are short OF 40 class
rooms-21i in 81. Croix and "a IN St. Thomas. ~ Septem
nar. 1862 It is estimated on the basis Of enrolment pro-
lection that in addition to the 30 classrooms now under
construction at Nisky and Sugar Estate, AZ new class
rooms are needed to house adequately allo our students
without overeroWding. OF this total, % new classrooms
areneeded for st. Croix, and 18 new classrooms are need.
ed for ST. Thomas. The cost estimated Tor the 81 pro
posed classrooms is $1,175,O 900. Dr.. Sanchez, however,
indicated that we can build AZ suitable pre-fab class
rooms, for about a third of the cost for conventional
classrooms, or roughly $404,0 600. Experience with the pre-
fab materials throughout the United States and in Puer-
to Rico has been on the whole, very satisfactory.
At the recommendation of the Commissioner of Ed
ucation, therefore, / am requesting an appropriation OF
$4,000 for the construction of 10 pre-fab classrooms
and the equipment for these 10 classrooms to relieve, as
possible. our o~vertaxed classrooms facilities.
Speaking of classrooms, there are as you know, two
schools now under construction IN st. Thomas q 81
classroom unit in Sugar Estate and an 8 classroom unit
st Nisky. 1t is absolutely necessary to purchase furni-
ture and equipment for these schools during this fiscal
year in order to have the schools ready for occupancy by
next year. The sum Of $105,000 is requested for this
purpose.
Ihave been advised that there are over 200 seventh
grade boys at Charlotte Amaie High School who are
idle for two periods each day for lack OF industrial arts
classrooms and teachers. To relieve this situation ! am
submitting to you for consideration, a budget request
for the amount Of $4,000 for the construction OF indus
trial arts shops and, under the supplemental %appropria-
ton for operations, $4,000 for the salaries OF three indus
trial arts teachers.
We have been advised many times in the past that
our presentfood warehouse facilities for our SCHOOL, lunch
program are totally inadequate, as they afford no pro
lection from rats and insects and from the weather. In
times of emergency, and in the event Of food shortages,
due to emergency. food from our school lunch program
will serve the population until other forms OF relief are
available. The sum Of $38. 900 is therefore being request
ed for the construction Of warehouses for the storage
of food under our school lunch program.
At the advice of the Commissioner Of Education, |
have proposed, within the limit Of our funds, the above
projects and items as the most urgent ones for the De-
partment Of Education. While the sum OF S385.OO0 IS a
modest one in comparison with the amount actually
aeeded. I am pleased. nevertheless, that we are at last

vince my wife that it is her
duty to get up in the morning
and prepare breakfast for me.
She doesn't have to go to
work, so If she went back to
bed afterwards it would be all
right with me. She tells me
that 1 am behind-the-times
and that SO per cent of the
wives sleep in the morning
and their husbands either
get their own breakfast or
go out and buy it some
where. Can you tell me If
this is correct? I would like
to know approximately how
many wives in our Nation
still get up in the morning
to prepare a decent break
fast for their families?
NO BREAKFAST.
Your wife must have
dreamed" those statistics. /

least IS per cent of our wives
have the coffee perking at

"At one time, she had to
send 81 million in securities
to Philadelphia to close q
deal. She asked the Adams
Express Co. what they would

this would be slightly more
than the round-trip train
fare to the Quaker City.
"She tucked this fortune in

herself, to save less than one
dollar"

made the floor look fine, but
it wouldn't dry. The only
way from the back Of the
house to the front was
through the toolshed, onto
the porch, climb the furni-
ture, and in the bedroom
window to the bathroom.
Somehow, Rocky got into the
dining room and his paws
got stuck on the walnut.
This wasn't so bad but,
when we got him out Of It,
he decided to lick his paws
clean and, when the tur-
pentine got on his tongue,
he became the hottest dog
east of the Alleghenies. Mo-
body could wait for the floor
to dry, so we went barefoot
and decided to flick the an
tique gold on the walls.
I was up on a kitchen
stool working on the walls.
BY some error, they began to
look mustard. My wife
thought that the pail Of gold
paint looked precarious on
the ladder SO, unknown to
me, she removed it. I backed
down the ladder to examine
my artistry and put my
right foot in the bucket. 50
The bucket tilted and
spilled onto the walnut floor.
Our housekeeper, Mrs. Kath-
arina Rook, became hysteri-
cal and went to bed. I quit
the job angry, and found
that the free foot was now
embedded in the tacky wal
nut. The gold foot was all
right, except that it was
dripping.
THE NEXT DAY the rug
man phoned to say that the
ochre rugs would not arrive
for a month. i figured 1t
would take that long for the
floor to dry, so I said;
Don't worry, my friend. You

This morning I came out
of the bedroom to the dining
poom. The floor was still q
little tacky. The dog got up,
and left a big circle Of gray
fur on the floor. Just then,
Flo Walter, my secretary,
walked in. Look at what

smiled. "Oh," she said. II
