The Municipal Committee made an in
spection in Frederiksted yesterday. The
fire engine was found clean and other
wise Gin good condition. However more

The building used by the Public Ii
brary is in a state of neglect and so is
the old police station. Money must be
squeezed from SOMEWHERE to effect the ne
cessary repairs to these places.
The wharf in Frederiksted is soon to be
given some sattention The neglected con
dition of these building is due to lack of
public funds The fault does not lie with
the representatives from Erederikted who
never sleep when an opportunity opens

l. The most frequently mentioned point this
week, however, has been the working of mar
ried women or girls Of course, the idea is
that if such people did not work outside their
homes, there would be more work for others.
Unquestionably more women are working
than formerly, and good many of these
women are married. Many girls go to work
who do not need to do so.
Unquestionably, too, during the time in
which the change in this direction has been
going on, it has tended to increase unemploy-
ment somewhat
