look at what we may reasonably expect from the con-
and operation of this plant.
It's operation would provide more than 4OO JOBS,
manv Of which would require considerable skill and
command pay appropriate to those skills. Seventy-hve
per cent Of these employees must be residents OF the I
Virgin Islands. The company proposes TO eStaDhsh
training schools through which the residents OF ST. Crolx
can qualify for the most skilled jobs. In addition, on-the-
lob training will give every employee a constant oppor-
Etunity to qualify for jobs with increased pay.
These Jobs will last the year round-52 weeks a
year. Ninety-fve per cent of them will be filled by men.
This is in contract to most of the industries that have
o to the Virgin Islands in the past and the fact that
the majority Of their employees have been women.
Steady employment will enable a man to buy a
home for his family, for with a steady job a man can
qualify for FILA financing. He will be able to establish
and purchase some Of the more expensive things families
need, such as refrigerators and automobiles.
Now one of the most important aspects of a situation
like this is that new jobs provide still more new jobs.
Authorities have figured out that 400 new jobs in indus
try, for instance, result in another 400 or more new jobs
in other businesses in the community.
In other words, it takes another 400 people to pro-
vide all the services the expanded economy now requires
more BARRIERS and butchers and clerks and repair men
and mechanics and policemen and taxi drivers and
plumbers and automobile agencies and real estate sales
men.

LEGISLATIVE RECORD

on February IA. 1867
tContinued)
The legislature only a few months ago passed a
new minimum wage law for the Virgin Islands. lnere
are many employers still crying about what tney TERM
an Injustice in that act. They say we set the wage 1r
the ordinary working man too high at gu cents per nour'
Some of these employers are unhappy with the ~
hour week. They say its manageable. Some OF tner
complaints have merit, I'm sure, for no blanket ruling
can be completely fair to everyone and every SITUATION.
But progress by itself sets its own terms.
These are terms to which no complaint can be made
That is the sort Of progress that the alunaina plant
coming to st. Croix will bring. 3.
Think, in terms Of dollars and cents the Harvey
Aluminium Corporation is United States Corporatlon
enoaged in interstate commerce. That means II is sup]ectI
+o Federal law on wages and working standards. 1t IS,
of course, subject to general supervision by the virgin
Islands Law.
The minimum wage for the ordinary working man
EMPLOYED by Harvey will not be sixty cents a hour. II
will be in 1862 $1.15 per hour. In 1868 the rate Will be
a minimum Of $125 per hour.
- This is for a forty hour week with provision Tor time
and one half for overtime. That is the provision OF the
Federal Fair Labor Standards Act to which Harvey
Aluminium is subject.
That in terms of dollars and cents is what this pro-
posal means to the working man OF St. Crolx. 1t means
more LIldl uOuDl1llS IuC E0y VI viz 'ONo
ordinary working man. In addition we have won an
agreement from Harvey to train and develop our young
people SO they can qualify for the better paying jobs.
This then is what the agreement means to our peo-I
pie. the working people, double your present mini
mum wage, a shorter work week and a provision 1or
overtime all enforced by federal law. In addition an OPP
portunity to qualify for better paying jobs in the future
This was what caught my attention in the negotla-
lions. This is what I wanted made clear. This is what
Governor Paiewonsky and myself along with the other
negotiators were working for. This is why we wanted a
basic industry to start the industrial revolution gong
right here in our own back yard OF St. Crolx.
There are no hidden disadvantages in the agree
ment. There are no menaces to your health and comfort.
You can take my word for that.
You heard Governor Paiewonsky say Monday night
that this plant would be ideal for this island. You heard
him say that bringing new industries to these islands to
provide round employment, to enable people to work at
trades if they want to and upgrade our standard OF living

mands:
The presidency Is the most
important job in the world, the
most burdensome, and, at the
same time. gives the greatest
opportunity, I suppose, to any
living individual. 1t is very
important to have an indivi-
dual who Is well-rounded,
sound, has a lot of common
sense. does not get disturbed

important events and keeps his
head.

administer is of prime impor-
tance-although we have had
