Brothers and Sisters:
Three weeks ago the whole ma
ton gathered to mourn the passing
of a young man who was known by
the entire world, and-we discov-
ered-loved by the world. AS we
laid President Kennedy to rest,
most of US were stirred to think
about our own personal losses, and
about our families and friends
stirred to cherish our wives and
husbands and children, our parents
and sisters and brothers, those who
live with us and those who work
with us.
Today, we here gathered in St
Stephens Church have come to
mourn and to pay our last respects
to one who Is not known by the
whole world-but nevertheless was
loved by all who knew her.
Mary Graham, wife Of Thomas
Graham and mother Of eleven
fine children, has left behind her
with her family and her friends
the memory of a good woman, a
kind woman, a woman who gave
help and comfort In need. Mary
Graham gave life and knowledge
and strength to her husband and
their children.
did not know Mary Graham as
we'll as would like to have known
her. I have known her husband
well-ThonIas Graham "a good
man, a fine man, and one who was
deeply happy in his marriage. The
reflection Of Mary Graham - in
her husbands and ohildren's hap
piness - Is a reflection of o
woman who was strong and warm
and wise. She was a woman who
worked hard and cheerfully - too
hard for her frail health. She liter
ally spent herself in the service
of her children.
But who could ask for a fuller
life-for a life more rewarding
than the deep love and respect
that Mary Graham enjoyed from
her friends and family? Who-of
all the great figures of history
princes and presidents and kings
achieved more in their Life than
this simple and courageous wom-
an?
We shall all come to the end
Of our days. Let us hope that
when our time has como we
shall be as ready as Mary Gra-
ham.
And let US hope that when that
day comes, men and women can
say of us-as they might say Of
Mary Graham, "She never caused
a tear to fan, except upon her
passing away"

unreliable for income because OF
grazing conditions, lack of depend
able abattoir facilities or other
substantial markets.
10. Part of this present cattle
forage is provided by grazing on
green cane tops which crop is har-
vested. This forage will be lost
if sugar cane is abandoned.
II. Approximately $7,OO0,OOO of
the $18,000,O 900 budget Of the Vir-
gin Islands Government, | under
stand, comes from excise taxes of
which a large percent is yielded
from the US. excise tax on Vir-
gin Islands rum which is depend
emf on molasses from sugar cane
as it; base.
IL. Money now added to the st.
Croix income from molasses will
have to go to buy molasses In
other islands, thus increasing costs
(hauling, shipping, etc.) and re-
ducing ST. Croix's income
13. Wages have increased 60%
in ST. Croix for farm labcr since
the Virgin Islands Corporation be-
gan growing sugar cane. This huge
increased income to st. Croix
spreads now over all wages & adds
many hundreds O.: thousands of
dollars to the total taxable income
of st. Croix besides that produced
by sugar cane. 1t adds to the tax
income of the Virgin Islands Gov
eminent.
IA. St. Croix essentially is an
agricultural island Gust as st. Tho
mas is a dommercial port). st.
Croix under Danish management
once was the most prosperous IS
land in the Caribbean. 1t would be
an unthinkable reflection on the
integrity of this Corporation to
wipe out this crop of such import
ance to the Island of ST. Croix I'M
til and unless the most careful
planning first insures the protec-
ton of growers who have acted
in good faith over two generations.
Any decision should have the full
and free endorsement of the citi-
zans and sugar growers of st.
Croix.
Is. To drop sugar cane without
an assured replacement of its i'm
portant income to the Island of
st. Croix will result in destroying
a large part of the 5000 acres of
the best agricultural land which

has cost great sums of money to
develop, in addition to taking mil
lions of cash income out of indi-
dividual ST. croix pockets and re-
ducing the tax income of the local
Government.
is. The United States pays a
premium on sugar production in
Puerto Rico and all U. S. main
land acreage to offset high wages.
Why should this Board twist this
into a penalty to impose as SEN
tence on this helpless tiny Island
of st. Croix?
II. Because land values are quo
ted at speculative figures surely
is no reason for leaving the land
uncultivated.
Is. st. Croix has $4,000 acres of
land which more that 10000 once
were i'll sugar cane. 1t seems I'M
~hinkable to destroy such a valu-
able crop and the continuing use
of its planted acres on the assump-
ton that other disable land is not
available for other crops.
10. The proposal to sell and de-
liver by barge the st Croix sugar
cane crop to Puerto Rico involves
excessive cost and in any event
cannot work if the Virgin Islands
Corporation production is not IN
GUIDED, as the total tonnage will
be insufficient to cover costs of
shipping which will be excessive.
In any event, this proposal will
greatly reduce total ST. Croix in
come now derived from sugar
Money received for the finished
sugar crc.o will not come to ST.
Croix. This will be a total loss to
the Islands of the bigger part of
the sugar income. Analysis shows
that shipping cane to Puerto Rico
for processing would greatly in
crease costs.

High on the list of necessary
essentials for working with other
people Schertler listed compre-
hension and understanding of the
people.
He said in most countries we
are already ten years too late
and that the United States is
opposed by a country which is
state controlled and who has been
going into undeveloped countries
and stirring things up for a long
time. He said the reason the pre-
sent world pr oblems are so critical
is that news now travels so fast
it is around the world in a day.
When the poorer people hear of the
others who have more possessions
they demand their share. Some,
like Cuba, have mmunist
controlled dictator state and that
is bad. Others are in a state of
evolution and could emerge in any
form. 1t is the United States job
to keep these countries free to
work out their own destiny.
MANY of these countries will
not be patterned after the United
States but somewhere there is
middle line to provide people what
they want and should have"
SChertler told the Navajo young
people to think about the Peace
Corps. The qualifications are 18
years and above, husband and wife
accepted but no children depen-
dents.

Top Peace Corps
Official Talks To
Navajo Youth

Speaking at the Friday night
banquet of the Third Annual Navajo
Youth Conference at Chinle, Leon
Schertler, Senior Training Officer
of the Peace Corps. stated that the
Conference theme was very ap-
propriate for the peace corps as
we'll as the youth organization.
The theme was "Today We Follow
Tomorrow We Lead"
Schertler stated that the young
people who work in the peace
corps today will be the leaders
of tomorrow. The average age for
males is "a 1/2 years and for
females % IL years of age.
While there is no rigid yard
stick for applicant S the peace corps
volunteers are thoroughly screen
ed as they must represent the
United States wherever they are
sent. There have been 44,OOO
applic ants and 1000 accepted
Schertler said.
There are many peace corps
volunteers who have been training
amongst the Indians. This training
and experience has been very val
liable and in fact many of the young
people who trained last summer
among the Navajos want TO come
back and work with them, They
found this a rich and rewarding
experience, he said.
Schertler also posed the
question that if the American
people haven't really understood
the Indians for the past 16O years
wasn't it presumptious TO send
people to other countries to try
to solve their problems. Answering
his own que stion he said he
believed the real problem has
been the problem Of commnica cation
which he felt is now being recog-
nized by government and tribal
leaders alike. "Our volunteers
need to have the ability of ap-
preciation of the other man. Just
to Sit and learn the other persons
thinking, his personal values, his
family culture and his religious
convictions before you try to work
with him in things you feel will
benefit him is a necessary first
step.
You must have the other fellows
respect and confidence and be able
to understand each other" he said.
Schertler drew heavy applause
from the Navajo young people when
he said the Peace Corps is en-
tirely integrated and will not
look at a man by the color of
his skim.
The changing world economy
was described as an agricultural
society which has changed to an
urban industrial society. About
8O9d of the people of the world
now live on bare subsistence diet
while the United States has huge
surpluses.
"The difference is education.
You must be educated to 60 ahead
in todays world".
In the Peace Corps 6O9o of the
volunteers are engagedinteaching.
A large number are working on
specialized agricultural and COM
munity development programs.
Schertler said the peace corps
training is condensation maximum
learning. In ten weeks we are
giving training equivalent to oaYear

Tricks To Brighten the
Lunch Box Menu"

Today and every weekday,
approximately 33,OO0,000 lunch
es are carried from home to
school or to a job. No wonder
homemakers are lunch box
conscious. There are many tips,
tricks and variations to lunch
box fare to add interest and
sparkle to these carried-from-
home meals.
Sandwich Tips:
Breads: Keep a supply of
different kinds of breads in the
freezer. Packed in plastic wrap
they will hold for several
months. Spread the bread with
filling without thawing and the
bread will help keep the sand
wich cold until lunch time.
Wax paper and wax sandwich
bags are economical wraps for
sandwiches.
Non-Bread Sandwiches: Cra-
ckers with a favorite filling
add interesting variety to the
lunch box. Apples and pears
may be sliced and spread with
a peanut butter, ham or date
filling for a change. Breadless
sandwiches of a filling between
meat or cheese slices are ap-
pealing. Try slices of cold meat
loaf with a potato salad fill
ling or bologna, ham or other
cold meats filled with cream
cheese or cheese spread.
Dessert Sandwiches: Cookies
sliced date nut and other fruit

Last week l had the dubious
pleasure Of witnessing some of
the demonstrations staged
few doors down the hall from
my office by the So-called Am
erican students who had been
Castro's guests in Cuba.
These young delinquentS were
called here before the House
Un-American Activities Com
mittee after they had defied a
Presidential executive order
banning travel to and from
Cuba to determine if new laws
are needed to prevent Ameri-
cans from travelling to Cuba.
After seeing these long-hair-
ed, bearded beatnikS in their
best gutter-rolling garb and
their lady companions in san
dals and similarity diSheveled-
most apparently longtime fugi-
tives from a ShoWer-I thought
the reference to this group as
American students" was real
ly an insult to American stu
dents. They were true beat
niks and it made me wonder
little about our country and
all of the things we are try
ing to do to better the country
and the world and our way
of life and freedom. And
wondered what some of you
who served in the last two
world wars or the Korean con-
flict or who lost loved ones in
those wars were thinking as
you saw this on TV or in your
newspaper or heard the re-
ports on radio.
There have been many good
books written about Commun-
ism and one of these, what
We Must Know About Com
munism" by Harry and Bonaro
OverStreet described the "tar-
gets of Communism. Their de-
Scription of the youth" tar
get seemed to fit this group
rather well-''TTe has a con-
suming fear of war and is thus
highly susceptible to any peace
offensive TIe knows and thinks
too little about the history and
institutions Of his own country
to feel that he has any personal
stake in the present world
struggle. He blameS the older
generation for having mangled
the world and left to his gen
Grafton a pretty complete mess.

ed breads, gingerbread brown
les and even whole walnut
halves can be filled for dessert
Sandwiches" when bread
sandwiches have not been in
cluded in the rest of the menu.
Fill with Softened cream
cheese or frosting and seal in
see-through plastic wrap.
Menu Variations
Protein foods make good out
of-hand eating: KabobS Of cook
ed meats or cheese cubes may
be threaded on skewerS or col
ord food picks for interesting
variety in the menu. Or, in
clude dried beef rolls filled
with seasoned cream cheese
or lettuce rolls filled with po-
tato salad. Ham or bologna
slices also with cheese filling
make satisfying finger foods.
Daily Surprise: In each days
lunch plan surprise element,
a little toy, a piece of candy,
or a favorite food prepared in
a different way. This can be
as simple as an apple cut IN
thirds horizontally and spread
with peanut butter. A surprise
face on a sandwich will add
interest or "tuck-in" of pret-
zels or potato chips or of stuff
fed dates, prunes, or nuts will
keep anticipation high.
Lunch Box Decor
Color: Quick way to add
sparkle to any lunch box is
with colorful paper towels and
napkins. Each day line the
lunch box with a different
color of soft, absorbent paper
towel and mix or match the
colors with gay scott napkins.
For example, line a lunch box
with bright new turquoise
color towels and tuck in a
bright yellow or soft sandal
wood napkin. The paper tow
els come in handy also in the
cleanup, throw-away job af-
ter lunch.
Theme: Occasionally, build
the lunch menu around a theme
such as outer space, pirates
or cowboys, depending on the
youngsters interests. For
these, write out the menu with
each item approximately named
such as Satellite Sandwiches"
or pirates Chest Cake. Tuck
In gold foil wrapped coins,
Western neckerchief or space
gun appropriate to the theme.
