EDITORIAL

Under the caption "A Tribute to DR..
D. C. Canegata, Municipal Physician, Ma
tive of st. Croix, v. l." The Emancipa
tor" has written an article. blaming Ha-
ruld lckes, Secretary of the Interior for
what the paper terms 'spitefuI, hateful
thing"
x,Ihe WEST End News and the Enamel
pator have exhibited the right spirit in
their editorial comments on Doctor Cane
gata's removal from public service as
municipal physician in st. Croix. Because
Virgin Islanders do not manifest that
spirit of brotherly love for their fellow
islanders they are not respected; because
they do not come together and assert
themselves as they ought to do they are
even losing their identity.
What The Emancipator says is what
the people of all degrees Of intelligence
are saying. Many of them fear under
existing circumstances &c give open ex
pression to their thoughts. They fear that
no government business Will be given
them, that they would never be In line
for government job: they fear reprisala
of every imaginary nature. and SO their
souls are shackled.
Natives should extend to other natives
their moral support if that is all that they
can offer.
EIp it's article The Emancipator puts this
question: Governor Cramer came to US
requesting cooperation. Would the Gov
ernor consider the best step towards CO.
operation with Virgin Islanders that of
puDishiug some and rewarding others!
OF course if thus is the policy of the
Department of Interior the Governor
mustbow to it Lionel Robertswas thrown
from the Board of Directors of the Vir
gin islands Company since his testimony
ar,Washington. D. c.. The office carried
no compensation.
In taking a stand in defense of DR..

BALTIMORE, September 4-Good
fortune and adversely conflicted today
in the manner of a story book romance
for two once penniless youths who
unearthed a golden treasure from q
musty cellar.
The theft of $4,000 in gold and
e3.100 in currency from the home of
one led to the revelation the boys had
found second treasure trove, valued
at $4,000.
Theodore Jones and Henry Groh
had their first taste of wealth about
year ago, when they unearthed sew
eral thousand gold coins from the dank
cellar floor beneath Jones residence.
1t was only after extended litiga-
ton that they won the right to keep
the gold. The coins were sold at auc-
ton for $4,000.
The boys did not reveal their sec
ond find of $4,000 until yesterday
when police began investigating the
robbery at the apartment where Theo-
dore Jones lived with his mother and
step-father. Philip A. Rummel.
The $4,000 of gold and the s3,100 in
currency that constituted his life saw
1ngs were stolen from a trunk in the
second floor rear apartment last night,
Rummel told police.
When officers began inquiring into
the presence of the gold in the house,
Theodore and Henry told Lieut.. E.
zekiel Williams they decided a month
ago to dig in the cellar floor again.
Il was holding the pick when it
hit q can." Theodore said. I'VE
opened it and there was gold money
in 1t. We took it upstairs and divided
It,"
Asked how the division was made,
Theodore said:
We'll, we just took one $40 gold
piece for him and then one for me-
and then one for him and then one
for me until all the $40 pieces were
gone. Then we did the same with
the $40 gold pieces"
Gave Share to Mother.
Theodore said he gave his share to
his mother, Mrs. Rummel, who put it
in the trunk with her husbands sav-
tngs.
But Henry Grob's mother took his
share downtown and sold it for 50, 400.
She took a beating" Henry said.
1T was worth $1,000. I'm sure"
