This is crime of desperation and survival, they thief ANYTHING.I remember in the early 70's Wales used to have a high crime rate compare to other areas, also they had large number of mix marriages or living together. There was a special building built specific for dances, known as Dance Hall.every Saturday night the villagers would show up at the dance hall to party, Blacks, Indians, Douglas etc., Whenever I visited Wales it still surprises me to see all races living in harmony, even when other areas had problems.

I forget to mention after asking about employment,the workers said Uitvlugt too far for work,mind you they are getting free transportation.

The jobs offered at Uitvlugt are low paying ,hard labour work, it also takes the workers an extra three hours a day for the travelling. They have to assemble by Wales factory bridge and when the trailer is full then it leaves along West Bank to Vreed-en-Hoop then along West Coast to Uitvlugt.there they have to assemble along with locals then being transported to the Back Dam. That process repeats at the end of the work day.It may sound easy, only if it was still Slavery Days.
