WASHINGTON. A while ago the Secretary
to the Council read a letter from the
Progressive Citizens of Frederiksted
against the useless expenditure of public
money and today we have bill before Us
providing for 81 500 for the purpose of

mission to Washington is useless, be.
cause the authorities in Washington
know a good deal more about our busl-
dess than many persons here think they
know. | should like to ask the honorable
LIST member for Christiansted Town
through the Chair few question::
1. Has the President or the Secretary
of the Interior invited conference
or have those people shown such
gross ignorance of the economic
and social situation that confer
6uCS Is uSCSSSdIy HI AllC OPIulOu VI

2. If ignorance is shown please give
US few examples of those ia
stances in which Ignorance was
eXuIbted.t
3. Is the Commission going up with
mandate from the people of the
Virgin Islands or is it going TO ex-
press its own opinion no matter
how much in conflicts with the
feelings and desires of the people,
according to Paragraph DC Of the
Colonial Laws?
a. It is well known fact that views
differ greatly concerning econ0-
mics as we'll as society. Which
side Of the questions is the CONS
sion going 10 represent!
| think these questions are pertinent
and | wish the proponent of the resolu-
ton would answer them; and if he /.
able to convince me might see my way
to vote for sthe Commission to go tC
Washington. The last commission thai
went TO the United States was project
less useless and waste Of money.
