H. M. Queen Juliana Commemorates 25th Anniversary as Netherlands' Monarch

Aruba Celebrates Silver Jubilee

O-EM & On National Holiday, September 5


On September 6, 1948 25
years ago H.M. Queen Juli-
ana officially assumed respon-
sibility of a nation's reign when
she was sworn in as Nether-
lands' monarch in the "Nieuwe
Kerk" in Amsterdam.
In one passage of her inaugu-
ral address, characterized by
her simplicity, she said: "Since
the day before last I have been
called to a task which is so ar-
duous that none who but for one
moment could imagine himself


in this would desire it, yet so
beautiful as well that I can me-
rely say: Who am I, that this I
may do?"
Since that memorable day
when she succeeded her mother
H.M. Queen Wilhelmina as reign-
ing queen of the Netherlands,
Queen Juliana has earned the
love and respect of the people
through her innate simplicity,
humane ways and her democra-
tic convictions.

Lago Police Move to Headquarters


In the Industrial


The personnel of the Lago
Police are now comfortably set-
tled in their modern headquar-
ters in the new Industrial Serv-
ices Building located at Gate
No. 2. The police personnel
moved from their former offices
in the southeast end of the
General Office Building on Au-
gust 13 and 14.
Along with this move, the La-
go Police Section has been re-
named Security Section. This
change is to keep up with the
worldwide trend to bring the
description of a security offi-
cer's function more in line with
his actual duties which call for
control, safety and protection in
industry.
The Industrial Services Build-
ing is situated a few hundred
feet from the former Gate No. 1,
previously the company's main
entrance to the refinery. It was
constructed near the building
which presently houses the pay
booths and other facilities at
Gate No 2.
A new guard house in the
center of the road and traffic
islands at the entrance, which
has been widened on both sides
for better incoming and outgo-
ing traffic distribution, will en-
sure improved traffic control
and shorter delays at the gate.
The Industrial Services Build-
ing is the Lago Police's second
"own" building. Their first buil-
ding was constructed at the
company's Main Entrance in
1940 and occupied in 1941. It
was dismantled in 1963 and the
police personnel moved to new


Services Building
quarters in a section of the for-
mer Employee Medical Center
near Gate 2. At that time the
gate controls were moved in-
ward to a control point adjacent
to the present Gate No. 2.
In August 1964, the Safety
Section, the Police and Fire
Fighting functions were consoli-
dated into a Plant Protection
Division in the former Employee
Medical Center Building.
The Lago Police Department
was re-established in 1966 with
central offices in the eastern
section of the General Office
Building, with the paybooths and
other related facilities at the
present building at Gate No. 2.
Since November 1969, the La-
go Police Section (now Secur-
ity Section) and the Fire Section
form the Industrial Services Div-
ision.
The modern air-conditioned
Industrial Services Building
houses the offices of Industrial
Services Administrator Wi m
Brinkman, Security Captain Ro-
man Croes, and all security of-
ficers and administrative per-
sonnel and the facilities related
to their activities.

II. M. Queen Juliana Commemorates 25th Anniversary as Netherlands' Monarch

Aruba Celebrates Silver Jubilee "V a


(Continued from page 1)
One of the most significant
events during her reign was the
signing of the Statute for the
New-Style Kingdom with Suri-
name and the Netherlands An-
tilles as equal partners.

To celebrate the 25th anni-
versary of her ascension to the
throne, a series of festive acti-
vities were held in the Antilles
on September 5, which was pro-
claimed a national holiday in
honor of the Queen.

The Postal Services of the
Netherlands Antilles has also
given special recognition to this
occasion by issuing a comme-
morative 15 cent postage stamp,
depicting the Queen and the
Antillean flag. In addition, the
Legislative Council has approv-
ed the issuance of a new silver
coin valued at FIs. 25, the first


time that such a coin will be
circulated in the Netherlands
Antilles. A special piece of 925
sterling silver coin (45 mm, 650
grains in weight) will be minted
for coin collectors at a cost of
about Fls. 40.

As a national gift to the Queen
on her jubilee, a special collec-
tion was made in the community.
The proceeds will go towards
"The Child in Need."
The Queen Juliana Silver Ju-
bilee Committee has published
42,000 copies of a special com-
memorative picture album, titled
"Juliana, Queen of Our Antilles"
for distribution to the Antillean
school children.

Illustrated on these pages are
the highlights of H.M. Queen
Juliana's quarter century reign,
with special emphasis on her
visits to Aruba and Lago.


H.M. Queen Juliana takes the oath to the Constitution
and is formally invested in a ceremony on Sept 6.

had to be removed by cutting
open the top of the furnace.
The twenty-five tubes damaged
by the fire were removed by a
crane in groups of four.
The new 35-ft. long, 6-inch in
diameter tubes were installed
in groups of three and four and
were specially rigged to move
within the furnace to their final
position. Because the tubes
contained chrome alloy, all welds
required a special treatment.
This treatment involved heating
the tubes and gradually cooling
them to eliminate stresses in the
tube welds. Skilled welders were
assigned to this job and the
tedious task of fitting back the
tubes into the furnace.
Another important job was the
recharging of fresh catalyst into
the reactor. The catalyst was
dumped for the inspection of
the reactor's shell and internals

by the California Catalyst Com-
pany.
As the KHAR unit is not prov-
ided with decoking facilities, it
was necessary at this time to
install piping from this unit to
the adjacent Gasoil Hydrofiner
(GHAR). This connection will
now make it possible to decoke
the KHAR's furnace as well.
While the KHAR unit was out
of service, ten exchangers were
removed and cleaned, and towers
and diums were opened for a
thorough inspection to deter-
mine where cleaning and/or re-
pair work was needed.

tion of HDS-I Coordinator Ed-

assigned to the unit's turn-

Another hotel to rise soon
along Aruba's Palm Beach is
the second Holiday Inn for
which Lt. Governor F. J. Tromp
laid the cornerstone on Satur-
day afternoon, August 18.
The new 200-room Holiday
Inn is being built next to the
present Holiday Inn of similar
room capacity which was inau-
gurated on October 25, 1969 on
the former POVA grounds at
Palm Beach on the L. G. Smith
Boulevard. The construction of
a "sister" hotel was deemed ne-
cessary because of the ever-
growing stream of tourists vis-
iting the island and consequent-
ly a constant demand for more
hotel accommodations.
Adding prominence to the oc-
casion of the corner-stone lay-
ing ceremonies were such per-
sonalities as Kemmons Wilson,


the magnate of Holiday Inn chain
hotels worldwide, Frank King of
King International Casinos, and
official authorities from Aruba
and Curacao.

The privately-financed luxury
resort hotel is scheduled for
completion by September 1974
and is owned by the Aruba Real
Estate No. 2 N.V., a subsidiary
of King International Corpora-
tion of California. The general
contractor is D. C. Savage Ltd.,
while the hotel will be operated
by Holiday Inns, Inc.
During a dinner the same
night in the Holiday Inn Hotel
to celebrate this important event
in the island's tourist industry,
Lt. Governor Tromp presented a
certificate to Mr. Wilson pro-
claiming him "Goodwill Ambas-
sador of Aruba."


Lt. Governor F. J. Tromp uses trowel to secure cornerstone he laid
for 2nd Holiday Inn, witnessed in the center by Holiday Inn's top
man Kemmons Wilson.
