Colonial Council Sends
Protest to Congress.

The c. Ionial Council for St. Thomas
and St. John, Virgin Islands of the United
States, has with great surprise received
Information hat the Government &C
cotiing to which the Congress of the
United States has imposed the Federal
Income Tax Laws and other measures
on us community without giving the
Coz, -laI Council hearing.
The Colonial Council had all reason to
believe that the provision of Sec. 2
OF the Colonial Law, IN view of the gener-
al American Ideals and Principles re-
presented by Congress would have been
upheld and respected by Congress, and
fails to understand the reason for the
departure from such natural procedure
and the ignoring Of the Legislative Body
in matters so directly under its sphere
and of so vital and imminent interest to
this community.
The Council feels that its rights and
dignity have been impaired by such &C
ton of Congress, for which the Council
fails to see the reason or necessity and
hereby soIemniy and forcefully protest
against sucn uncalled for action which
is contrar.7 10 all principles of democracy
and also to what has been faithfully
observed.
The Colonial Council vas inaugurated
November 81, 1853, and the present
action Of the United States Congress
is unprecedented in the annals of the
Council
fhe Colonial Cou 1ciI being the lawful
ly elected and appointed representative
Of the people of this Municipality, feels
, 1921-08-02

that no measure of importance to the
community should be passed without
giving the Council a hearing, and in ac-
cordanca with Section 43 Of the Colonial
Law hereby request the Governor to
forward this protest to Congress and
to the President with quickest des.

IN driving and in approaching dead on
the green.
London, July 10Th. The controversy
between the British and French Govts.
over SllesIa has reached an acute stage.
The latest British note drafted by Earl
Curzon, the Foreign Minister, endors
ed by the Imperial Cabinet and hand
ed the French Govt. this morning,
IS officially described as a vigorously
worded document" The note ascribes
the present situation TO the presentation
OF the French note to Germany on July
10th, calling the attention Of the German
defence troops in Upper SiIeeia, with
out previous consultation with frances
Allies, the first departure from the policy
or cooperation hitherto followed. The
Ffench Govt. is reminded of the firm
ness with which Great Britain has al
ways adhered to the principle of close
cooperation and mutual consultations be-
tween the Allies, and the note expresses
surprise at the sudden change in attitude
on the pant OF the French Govt. especial
ly as early this week the principle of CO.
operation was emphasized and agreed to
DetWeen Lord CurzOn and the French
Ambassador, while, following the Incl
dent of the occupation of Frankfort by
the French in April 1920, the Premier
had given definite assurance that France
would not in future take isolated action
on matters of common concern tC the
Allies. The note likewise expressed sur
Prise at the uni sual and apparently an
friendly tone Of the French communique
on Wednesday last, which Great Britain
the note states, is lo9th to believe was
meant 10 convey an unfriendly intention
on the part Of the French Govt. Great
Britain asked that the alliance cemented
by appalling sacrifices be continued on
the same lines Of mutual trust and conf
dence, for the promotion of which Great
Britain will make any concession TO the
French Govt. and isLready 10 do so should
the latter keep Great Britain fully
cognizant ri Frances wishes. On the
principle Of joint >lIied responsibility for
Silesia and other matters under the peace
treaty, however, it is clearly impossi-
BILE, the note continues, for Great Brit
ain to agree to acts as would inevitably
undermine the basis of the Allies. In
view OF the per plexity raised by the
tone of the last French note The British
Govt, the note states, feels bound to
enquire what explanation Of itsgntentions
the French Govt. can offer, as until tie
matter is cleared up it will BE- difficult
to see on what basis the Allied coopera-
ton can continue.

London July 29th Hearty approval
is expressed by London papers this
morning over the japanese Govt's. Geci-

to disc1Ss limitation of ornaments and

a lengthy editorial says. 'Japan's best
friends know that she would accept the
invitation, but the fact that ner accept
ance is actually on record, is a relief to
all who realize the magnitude Of the
issue with which the conference will be
c%onfronted'. Speaking Of the constant
temptation, politicians with narrow
motives" will find to drag subsidiary
questions befo e the conference in or

Times" says every precaution must be
taken to guard against such proceedings
in Washingto} J.. From this viewpoint,
Japan's desire to limit the scope of the
agenda is to be approved', the news
paper declares. The writer also is
concerned hat Japan, in making re-
servations as to what shall b. discussed
at the conference, is not acting merely
from a desire TO safeguard her present
interests in the Paci C, bat also under
: strong impulse to reduce the burden
of naval ornaments.

FROM THE PEOPLE

Editor the News:
 I read in the News of the 9th that a bill is now pending in the leglsia- ture to tax all wagons and horse- power vehicles for the maintenance or the highways. I wonder, MT. Editor, what the world is coming to-. Ihe farmer, whether he is a land owner or tenant farmer, is the one that is building the highway and grooming under the load of excess taxes, and will by the one-man rule made pos sible by the Alexander road law be compelled to carry this load of taxes for another generation and perhaps longer. Now, when it is absolutely impossible for hundreds of men to pay their taxes for body of men elected by the people to represent and legis- late for the rest of the people to con- slider for one minute such a vicious and senseless bill as this seems to me, the limit of absurdity. I for one and in fact most all the people want good roads and would willingly bear heavy burden to get good roads, but the methods that were resorled to and the deception that has been pro- duced to get the roads, have so incens- ed the people that they are now on the eve of revolt, and while I am perfect ly aware of the fact that some men are very unreasonable about all public improvements, but in this case all the people are united, and they have been driven to this by few men vested with special legislative power.
 have two bales of cotton that I have kept to pay my taxes and it represents practically all that made last year; these two bales of cotton will pay less than one-half of my taxes and they are absolutely all that I have that can turn into money and have other debts to meet besides current expenses and yet they want to make the burden more grevious to bear. Every tiller of the soil and every man that believes in common justice ought to condemn this bill in the most emphatic manner and do it now. Farmer"

thirty-three, the largest of which

never seen its equal. They will return
home this afternoon and promise a
