The Civil Liberties Union, acting on
cable advices from its representatives in
the Virgin Islands. announced that it
was seeking an official ruling on the
action of the Governor in disSolving the
Council.
How Council is Constituted
The Navy Department pointed out
that the Council, under the Colonial law
for the Danish West Indies, consisted of
thirteen members chosen by the people
and of five nominated by the King, that
each Colonial Counc decides the validi-
ty of the election of its members; that
when the popular elections are end
ed the King will determine whom he
will nominate as crown members OF the
respective Colonial Council, that should
the King think proper to do so, he may
authorize the Governor 10 nominate the
crown membe rs, and that dismissal of
u member appointed by the King can be
decided only by a royal rosoIu ion Con-
gress it was pointed out, continued the
colonial law in force,
Upon the meeting of the Council,
May IL, after new elections for half its
members, the council ques Toned the
eligibility of two members appointed by
the Governor and voted to postpone act
ion in their cases. The Council then pro
ceeded to organic and elect officers.
Again Refused Seats.
When infor med of this action the
Governor dissolved the Council declar-
ing that the new appointees had been
deprived of their Just rights md wiliful
ly subjected to shameful iujus ice
ION June 25 new elections for the en-
tire Colonial Council were held, and the
Council again refused to seat the Gov
errors appointees The Governor then
declared the Council Illegally constituted
by reason of its refusal to allow the two
appointed members to take their seats.
Pending legal constitution Of the
Council, the Navy Department said, it
had been necessary for President Cool
idge, in accordance with an act of Con
gress and provisions Of the colonial law,
to authorize the Governor to put into
effect such measures concerning the
economic affairs Of the Municipality of
Saint Croix, and to authorize such dis
bursements from tha colonial treasury as
he may deem necessary until the Colo
NAL Council became legally constituted.
