    \nChairperson: Gene Chaikin
    \nSecretary: Tish Leroy<\/p>\n

      \n

    5. Banana Cultivation \u2013 Demosthenes Kutulas<\/li>\n
    6. Farm Manager Report \u2013 Jack Beam<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Follow-up:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. A request by dad was made to know how people spend their time so they can be released from tests: those who have projects and extra work nights should turn in their time on this. Who is coordinating collection of this information for Dad \u2013 he addressed it to those handling the testing\u2026 It sounded like\u2026<\/li>\n
      2. What has been set up for the Russian classes \u2013 Professor [Edith] Roller and Dick Tropp?<\/li>\n
      3. Has a demonstration performance by the Karate Team been scheduled for public rally as requested? When will this be shown in reference to those that want to send to Georgetown for competition or performance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Johnny \u2013 I added the following to Dad’s agenda, did not want it on the one down front\u2026<\/p>\n

        The items from Rob Gieg’s letter were covered in analysts meeting \u2013 quite satisfactorily. There was merit for some of it and against. Harold [Cordell, also known as Bogue] was distinctly cleared and it was determined Rob owes Harold a public apology. We are dealing with the paper work, although it came out that Rob had not been doing this, even the notational work on the test the programs at the chickenry\u2026 And he agreed to start with this. However, there is too much paperwork \u2013 not all of which was asked for by either accounting or the CAO\u2019s \u2013 and we are meeting to pare down what we can on this. The analysts and farm inspectors are spending 6 hours a day with their crews in addition to their other functions and work. Rob brought the memo and all points were covered. Johnny gave agriculture 3 days from Sunday to pull it all into line. The ADMINISTRATORS HAD ALREADY PINPOINTED THESE PROBLEMS \u2013 both on the paperwork and the inspectors spending too much time in the office and in the last ACAO meeting analyst were instructed to deal with it. This was prior to Rob’s letter to you. The administrators are functioning well for [the] time they have been in.<\/p>\n

        Many departments in Jonestown used the back side of paper due to shortage. The notes on this page seem to be random notations from a resident listening to the news, and were not transcribed.<\/p>\n

They were there to murder Unica [Unita] Wright and us. Had a large satchel.<\/li>\n
            2. WATER FOR DAD \u2013 Shonda [Shanda James] should assign a white person to carry his water on the tour and around him. Cannot have it appear using blacks in servitude and might be thusly interpreted. Dad sent two messengers up to stop the music and they didn’t do it.<\/li>\n
            3. Band pay attention to those around Dad \u2013 take messages he sends up. Play softly in between lead performers.<\/li>\n

Comment [on] things made out of scraps, stress the trades blacks are learning here that they were not permitted to learn in the states because of racism, such as tool and die.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              That our seniors have usefulness \u2013 training are used in providing goods for country that will be much needed. Etta Thompson was in the movement in the states and picketed.

                          4. See the people quit calling the FRONT ENTRANCE by its former name.<\/li>\n

The songs of slavery are our roots\u2026 Even through their biblical connotations, they were sung from the hearts of our people.

                          17. Still need more to write up their stateside experiences; there will be special reward for those who do. Turn in to Jan [Jann] Gurvich.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                            ANTEATER Cage \u2013 The anteater is digging down a foot a day where he is presently caged. Gene wants to donate him to a zoo in Gtn. We are not finally in any position to build a zoo at this time, and we have a lot of problems because of this \u2013 nor do we anticipate the financial costs of a zoo being practical until we have a balance between income and expense in Guyana. Our move should be to cut all extra projects to cut expense.<\/p>\n

                                            Location for the cage was referred to the JONESTOWN PLANNING COMMITTEE.<\/p>\n

                                            Garden Planting: James Morrell stated that the garden is in a disastrous situation \u2013 worse than he has ever seen it. Must be some planting done, and must be done now. Shirley Smith has recently taken over charge and care of the garden, but this has been in the rainy time when she has had little time to get it straightened out \u2013 she inherited a lot of problems.<\/p>\n

                                            Gene originally came up with a plan and we had one of our best producing gardens when we first started out said Jan. Thinks he should help plan another. Gene committed to help Shirley with the paper work. However, we have major problems with the present soil said Gene. It is ridden with disease and bugs.<\/p>\n

                                            The new garden plan is for 1\/2 acre parcels and we cannot get on that until weather allows plowing. Morrell feels that we can get some things planted in West Garden in the bottom area, and even something in is better than nothing. Must use more natural fertilizer \u2013 need transportation and the rotary plow to turn it under. Shirley<\/p>\n

                                            requesting chicken manure. All to be put on the new garden area and turned under. Can go down trails and turn it under later as we get it.<\/p>\n

                                            James Morrell charged that at this point in time we don’t have a garden and asked, “are we going to wait 2-3 weeks more to start this?” Russell said that the only thing holding it is the tractor that is down\u2026 THERE WAS A LEAK IN AN OIL LINE AND WE LOST AN ENGINE ON THE TRACTOR. IT BURNED OUT FROM NO OIL. It wasn’t said if there were gauges that should have been watched, checked, etc.? This happened Friday, today, the 11th.<\/p>\n

                                            Simpson wanted to know why not planted in greens? Could not get it plowed. Russell wants to spread the compost on the new area and get it turned under.<\/p>\n

                                            James Morrell feels we should spread it on a specific size plot of land, so that enough is used \u2013 and then plow like it should be done rather than half-assed\u2026 Morrell feels must get something in to keep land producing. All generally agreed with him. Gene commented that the plan must be done before the fertilizer \u2013 that you fertilize differently for eggplant than you do for greens than you do for beans. Gene to do a quickie plan with Shirley on this by Monday.<\/p>\n

                                            SHIRLEY SMITH HAD BEEN ABSENT FROM THE MEETING AND WAS PAGED BY JOHNNY TO COME IN\u2026 She arrived at this point in the discussion\u2026<\/p>\n

                                            Gene feels we should go down to the new acreage and start fresh. He says that he has never seen such disease since he has been here. CHARLIE AGREES and added that the farmers down river only planted fields 5-7 years\u2026 At 3 years they began moving to another site; the old area is “used up” in 7 years. MORRELL POINTED OUT THIS WILL NO LONGER BE THE CASE WHEN WE DO THE INTENSIVE AGRICULTURE\u2026 But it is a condition we are facing now on the present grounds. It is too much accumulated disease.<\/p>\n

                                            Gene wants to start with some fresh seed from Georgetown.<\/p>\n

                                            [Handwritten marginal note for section: “What kind of new seeds, how many, when? Can Russell check the existing seeds for disease”]<\/p>\n

                                            Coffee too much for Shirley \u2013 In the transition, Shirley was handed the coffee trees. It was decided this should go back to the orchard crew. They are trained and equipped to deal with it and the garden crew has too much on their hands getting our fields back in shape<\/u>. Will start the new garden fresh on acre or 1\/2 acre plots.<\/p>\n

                                            Shirley expressed she felt they were blaming her for what she inherited. IT WAS EXPRESSED TO HER THIS IS NOT THE CASE. WE REALIZE SHE JUST TOOK IT OVER\u2026<\/p>\n

                                            Jan says she wants to put in 6-month cassava in the old garden area until we are ready to put in the rest of the housing.<\/p>\n

                                            2 1\/2 to 3 months ago when the Mon Rapos people were out here, we were talking about the disease. Nothing was done by Russell on this\u2026 [Marginal note: “GuySuCo [Guyana Sugar Company]\u201d]<\/p>\n

                                            NOW \u2013 WE HAVE NEED TO GET IN RADISHES AND GREENS NOW\u2026 Morrell suggested we immediately put some manure on the 1\/2 acre plot and put some people to be in charge of it and get some really good garden growing on that land. Agreed it should be done.<\/p>\n

                                            Russell\u2019s Problems \u2013 Jan pointed out that again we are having real trouble resulting from Russell’s failure to follow through. In a meeting some time ago, Gene, Russell, Becky and Jan set up procedures to be done to stop the transmission of disease from field to field; this was originated in an analysts meeting and carried out in subcommittee. It was Russell’sresponsibility to see that the procedures then outlined were carried out. He has done NOTHING AT THIS POINT\u2026 It has been quite a few weeks probably going on two months since this was set out.<\/p>\n

                                            Russell felt he had problems that blocked him, but he did not report back to the committee on this. The Mon Rapos pathologist told us how the garden was going and it was down and down\u2026 He made specific suggestions to be done. It was Russell’s responsibility to see this was carried out.<\/p>\n

                                            He failed to get the crew supervisors to show the insects; he didn’t do the disinfecting of machinery and tools; he did not do the seeds\u2026 He has not treated one seed, in fact. It was decided we should be selective in the seeds we get from our own planting material. [Marginal note: “so the seeds can be disinfected”]<\/p>\n

                                            Further, he has not given the proper instructions to Earnestine. Greens are being sprayed in the heat of the day and Russelldid not get through to them that this kills the plants. It burned them up. The citrus at Dad’s house now looks bad. The underbrush needs to be cut back on citrus behind Dad’s house. Russell sprayed it. The field people said they were told to leave the grass and brush around Dad’s place because the security was going to take care of this. Gene mentioned that the path of citrus is just for a hedge; we use rough lemon which is very thorny deliberately as security planting\u2026 Is to be a hedge. Yesterday, they sprayed all of the cottage area and the way they did it was VERY HARD ON THE BANANA TREES were supposed to have used a mister and did the spraying with a full stream. Was hard on the trees. BECKY HAD TOLD THEM SPRAY ONLY IN MORNING AND EVENING and this was not done. EARNESTINE IS TO GET HER INSTRUCTIONS FROM RUSSELL AND SHE SAID THAT SHE HAD TAKEN HER INSTRUCTIONS FROM DEMOSTHENES\u2026 Demo said that he had told her to use mist\u2026 Ernestine is not to fill out the schedule. This is Russell’s job. CAROLINE KIRKENDALL IS INSTRUCTED TO TELL<\/p>\n

                                            The young beans are just coming out of the ground and 1 1\/2 weeks ago told Russell spray needed and it did not take care of the problem\u2026 And THEY ARE GETTING RIDDLED WITH BUGS AND BEETLES. Russell’s response was “I know it.”<\/p>\n

                                            Gene said the way they are spraying in the cottages, they are shooting about 70% of the spray on the cottages. They spray them with a stream instead of with a mist.<\/p>\n

                                            RUSSELL IS TO TEACH THEM HOW TO USE THE MISTER\u2026 He has not been with them to check on their work\u2026 This just has to be done \u2013 immediately. He should have gotten BACK TO JOCELYN, and she should have been complaining loudly to Jack that he had not\u2026<\/p>\n

                                            ALL SUPERVISORS ARE TO HAVE A REPORT IN TO CAROLINE ON WHAT NEEDS TO GO INTO THAT FIELD!<\/p>\n

                                            ACAO ITEM \u2013 charges and inventory \u2013 RUSSELL IS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHEMICAL REPORT. Ernestine writes down exactly how much is used \u2013 she should continue doing this in her INVENTORY RECORDS\u2026 This is chargeable to each job and should be turned in such.<\/p>\n

                                            TASK INSTRUCTION \u2013 Caroline feels that there is need to have a list of instructions for every plant you spray written down. There was general agreement. Write down the tasks and how to do it. Should be done through agriculture. This was agreed. Caroline L. [Carolyn Layton], Harold [Cordell, also known as Bogue] and Tish [Leroy] can help on the listing of tasks. Did this in livestock and need it in agriculture. Classes are to be set out also, in specific subject areas. Caroline Layton suggested A TRAINING IN-SERVICE PROGRAM ON TEACHING PEOPLE HOW TO DO JOBS. Agreed this should be done<\/u>. You must stay with people to see that they are doing it right \u2013 it is not enough just to tell them or show them once\u2026<\/p>\n

                                            MOTION PASSED: TO DO THIS IN PROBLEM AREAS. Have the classes and the in-service training program.<\/p>\n

                                            Demos said cannot teach a new person every day. True but that key people CAN BE TAUGHT, then they can instruct the new workers as they come into the crew.<\/p>\n

                                            GARDEN TOUR \u2013 When guests come through, we have been taking them on a tour through the garden. THIS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED UNTIL OUR GARDENS ARE AGAIN PRESENTABLE. THEY ARE NOT PRESENTLY IN CONDITION TO TOUR. All agreed. Shonda [Shanda James] and others should be notified.<\/p>\n

                                            ALSO there is a lot of scrubby stuff the seniors are into. Recommend yank it up and plow and let it lay fallow for a while. Couple rows here and there.<\/p>\n

                                            Senior Gardens \u2013 JOHNNY JONES said he “has mixed emotions about this.” He would hate to have this happen with all of this rain if we don’t plan on panting back there immediately. “Can also see the part about taking it out and doing it right. It would leave a big gap, and then there is the PR thing we use about planting every square inch possible to food\u2026”<\/p>\n

                                            NOTHING WAS RESOLVED ON THIS ISSUE\u2026<\/p>\n

                                            CASSAVA PRESS, SAFETY COMMITTEE & CT \u2013 from CAO\u2019s memo\u2026<\/u><\/p>\n

                                            Demosthenes saw the jack fly off and hit one of our people in the arm and hurt him badly. “We were told that it was not being operating correctly,” Demos advised, but he said he still felt it was unsafe. He said the committee felt that it could be fixed better.<\/p>\n

                                            CT said that Demos wants a plate welded on top of it. CT doesn’t feel that the place is dangerous. In the first accident, the person was holding onto the jack and even bending back the handle \u2013 he applied so much pressure. It has only been since we operated with PT people that we have ever had any trouble. When the nationals operated it, there was never a problem. It was our people that broke it. CT doesn’t think it is dangerous. Anything can be dangerous if it is not operated properly. It should be pulled every 2 or 3 minutes, but our people think they can walk away for 15 minutes at a time. This is improper. They have been told how to use it properly!<\/p>\n

                                            STOVE\u2026 Teena said the dangerous part of the mill is the stove\u2026 She feels it is very dangerous\u2026 Can easily get clothing caught\u2026 CT said he would see this gets fixed\u2026 Is first he has been notified of it.<\/p>\n

                                            Tractors \u2013 Wesley came to the meeting to PROTEST THE FAULTY SCHEDULING OF THE TRACTORS \u2013 misuse of time and equipment. He said he feels we are [not] properly coordinating the tractors and the work, not running often enough and not considerate in the handling. He said he knew there were suckers to be picked up but Becky did not want him doing them\u2026 He had only the one day for the farm and he was not used properly\u2026 Claims the supervisors do not realize the COST AND TIME VALUE OF THE TRACTORS. The firm supervisors ask the tractor to wait up 2 minutes for one person, leaving 20 people sitting in the trailer, resulting in 20 or 40 minutes wasted time. Wesley gets the trailer up there 10 minutes early so they can long as they finish eating\u2026 He checks it out and has it together well before 7 so he can be on time \u2013 then they are standing around with tea, etc. after 7. Nobody gets anybody to check on things he claimed. Nobody out there to send the crew down the road if the tractor has a breakdown. He knew there were lot of things to be done; he could have done everything on the farm list in one day \u2013 but Becky would not authorize it. He used the tractor for garbage, etc., when could have been used for the farm.<\/p>\n

                                             <\/p>\n

                                            Wesley feels Demos should have the crews bring the bananas to piles, every so many feet apart, all down the road. This will greatly reduct [reduce] the tractor time required to stop and start, save on fuel and equipment costs. GENERALLY AGREED THIS IS GOOD IDEA.<\/p>\n

                                            CT says their system is wrong. If you have suckers on the road, you must get 2 or 3 people to go with the tractor and get them picked up, and there are suckers out there on the road now that Demo had said did not need to be picked up \u2013 and it looks bad! The cassava needs to be weeded and there are other things they need to be doing better.<\/p>\n

                                            60 people waiting for 10 minutes represents 10 hours. CT is mad because the supervisors were not on the job. Supervisors should set the example and be the first ones to get their people out of the area in the morning. The other day work did not start till 10:30 but the supervisors let the people stand around until 11:15 AM before they got started out to work. They are not getting in line early and are not getting their crews out early. The two mornings a week after the rally they should get themselves in gear and mobilize their forces to get on time and get the jobs done.<\/p>\n

                                            They should assist the servers to see they don’t serve past the 20 till 7 on firsts or 10 till 7 on seconds.<\/p>\n

                                            Becky said she went to Demos and he wanted to cancel the tractor for that day. It was to have been done Tuesday. Jacksaid he doesn’t want it to happen again.<\/p>\n

                                            CT said the bananas are beginning to look terrible and one week before the guest will be here. Becky giving Demos 40-50 people to get them cleaned up tomorrow. Will take several days. It takes all the crews just to maintain the road \u2013 is 3 days work. The trees are down and left there if they have bananas until they ripen, then taken out. Some can be propped.<\/p>\n

                                            CT SAYS THE FRONT ENTRANCE DOES NOT LOOK TOO BAD, AND IF THE BANANAS ARE CLEANED UP WILL BE PRESENTABLE. It should be kept spotless. Any trees falling over should be kept up and ALL SHOULD BE ALERT TO NOTIFY THE CREW OF FALLEN TREES.<\/p>\n

                                            Cutlass Training \u2013 A program is needed and Tom Grubbs has an idea for this. Tom not here tonight \u2013 Darrell is to have Tom set this up for us.<\/p>\n

                                            CASSAVA IN ROAD \u2013 Jan thinks it should be turned under. James Morrell says should pull the sticks out first and then leave them to be plowed under \u2013 that way will not leave stubble.<\/p>\n

                                            GARLIC VINE \u2013 Caroline K. asked about this vine. Jan reported we have looked for the planting material. The leaves smell and taste like garlic. Have not been able to get any.<\/p>\n

                                            CHICKERY FENCE \u2013 Rob wants to move the fence back at the chickery to give them another 50 feet of ground. Wants to use some of the barbed wire fencing from here. It won’t hold in the chickens, but Rob said they never wander anywhere anyway. (DOES IT DETER ANY OF THE SMALL WILD ANIMALS THAT WOULD ATTACK CHICKENS?) They stay near their pens.<\/p>\n

                                            EGGS \u2013 We are getting only 130 eggs a day and the kitchen needs at least 200 day just for the babies and children. We got about 50 hatched out. Every time we seem to lose a whole bunch of them \u2013 this last time it was the generator that went out.<\/p>\n

                                            BUY PULLETS \u2013 Rob asked permission two by about 500 pullet chicks day olds \u2013 last time priced they were costing $1.85 each. Then combine these with what we have. Put them in one building \u2013 then when we get the new building up, after aluminum comes in, put the pullets in the new building. At our present rate, we will not get our layers up by hatching.<\/p>\n

                                            Plan to use the 1\u201d chicken wire to divide. Will have to buy more. We need what we have at the piggery to protect against the bats. Will probably have to get the chicken wire out of Georgetown.<\/p>\n

                                            A BACKUP GENERATOR DOWN THERE IS NEEDED. Recommend we get the wire, the baby chicks and the generator.<\/p>\n

                                            After we get the chicks, will take about 6 months before they become layers. ASKED ABOUT BUYING A LARGER PULLETS. GET IN TOUCH WITH RICHARD [Janaro] and ask if he got any information on pullets. Talk with CT about the generator.<\/p>\n

                                            13) The way we get the wonderful behavior is to reward people for good behavior. We give special meals they can select for themselves, trips, records or something they want very much.<\/p>\n

Really, money doesn\u2019t mean much here because you don\u2019t need money. I can travel where I want to\u2026 I go into Georgetown occasionally, and other towns on the coast.<\/p>\n

                                            17) I hated the pollution and the crime in the states. We had several robberies in our neighborhood and there was so much crime. But it is like that in big cities all over the world.<\/p>\n

                                            The air is so beautiful here. The trade winds blow all the time and cool our days and nights. We have no earthquakes, cyclones or tidal waves here.<\/p>\n

                                            18) Snakes? We have none around here. We have never seen snakes, tigers or mosquitoes. We had a fly problem but we got on them without flyswatters. Now, they are greatly reduced. Right now there are more flies than we usually have.<\/p>\n

All needs are met.<\/p>\n

                                            23) Recreation \u2013 well, we have TV, cards, checkers, dominoes \u2013 we have performances and entertainment, vaudeville type of things. We have special treats on Sundays: popcorn, candy, special cookies.<\/p>\n

                                            25) Do you have weapons? No \u2013 we are a peaceful, nonviolent people. We have always been peaceful. We don\u2019t beat or hit people \u2013 we have no brutality.<\/p>\n

                                            28) Do not refer to Guyana as the \u201cpromised\u201d land \u2013 or freedom land. Say, if asked why you came here and did anyone make you\u2026 Say, \u201cI made up my own mind.\u201d<\/p>\n

                                            I had heard about it from people who had been over there and returned to the States. It was far more than they had described it to be.<\/p>\n

                                            32) Do you have security here? Why? There are no fences here \u2013 all of us know the free train, we know the engineer \u2013 we helped him and saved his baby\u2019s life, the medical staff did\u2026 Anyone can get on the boats going out of here. We have no security against our own people \u2013 and are not bothered by\u00a0 intruders out here. So why would we need security?<\/p>\n

                                            33) No children to go in grassy areas \u2013 there is great danger of snakes.

                                            36) What kind of schools? \u2013 We have only the very best. We have an exceptional student teacher ratio, also. Only 8-9 students per teacher here \u2013 but back in the states they have 40-50 in a class. Our teachers are trained in school guidance, counseling, remedial problems, fantastic audiovisual section and we have a library of 20,000 plus books when we get all of them that are en route.

We have all kinds of music, too \u2013 from albums and tapes we brought over.<\/p>\n

                                            Our teachers teach people\u2019s minds and stress creative learning: they create logical thought and not just chance thinking. Our children are taught to reason and analyze for themselves.<\/p>\n

                                            In the day care nursery, our children are there with good nurses, etc. They have games that teach perceptual motor activities. For instance, if you don\u2019t learn to crawl properly they don\u2019t develop good motor reactions<\/p>\n
