ISSUE
IN CRISIS AT
RICHMOND

RICHMOND, Va, March 2.
Only six days remain in which
members Of the Virginia general
assembly are to redeem campaign
pledges upon which they relied
to be elected. Most Of the prom
ises were to vote for backing
President Roosevelt as to old-age
pensions and other phases Of the
social security acC, especially as
to unemployment insurance, which
almost met defeat in the Vir-
ginia senate few days ago and
which seems destined to be ap-
proved in the house without the
Weaver amendment. This con-
tanned the proviso to put the
State act into effect in the event
the United States Supreme Court
declares such legislation valid.
Both senate and house con-
vened this morning The SEN
ate has been somewhat obdurate
both a. to old-age pensions and
jobleSs insurance. Senator Benja-
min Muse, of Petersburg, thus
far has won a fight in behalf Of
his proposal for the creation Of
a commission to study old-age
assistance.
Senator John B. Battle, of
Charlottesville, who has been
characterized as King Agrippa, Of
the Virginia legislature, the old
est law-making body in America,
was almost entirely defeated in
the senate in the fight lie made
in behalf o. his bill for unem-
ployment insurance.
The tobacco control act. de-
signed to bring about better prices
for tobacco, is expected to be ap-
proved in the senate today. The
bill has been passed in the house.
Governor Peery seemed to be
winning out today in behalf Of
the State budget. He is opposed
to additional appropriations be-
ing tackled on in either senate
or house. The appropriation bill,
which has been set for special
order in the senate tomorrow,
exceeds the governors recommen-
dations by $262.305, the total ap-
preparations being $37,000,000.

End Bad Cough
Quickly, at One
Fourth the Cost
Homs-Mizedl No cOokingl Easyl

Millions of housewives have found
that, by mixing their own cough medi-
cine, they get a much more effective
remedy. They use a recipe which costs
only one-fourth as much as ready-made
medicine, but which really has no equal
for breaking up distressing coughs.
From any druggist, get 21a ounces
Of Pinex. Pour this into a pint bottle.
and add granulated sugar syrup to ELL
up the pint. The syrup is easily made
with 2 cups sugar and one cup water,
stirred a few moments until dissolved.
No cooking needed. It's no trouble at
all, and makes the most effective rem.
edy that money could buy. Keeps per-
fectly, and children love its taste.
Its quick action in loosening the
phlegm, helping clear the air passages,
and soothing away the irritation, has
caused it to be used in more homes
than any other cough remedy.
Pinex is a concentrated compound
Of Norway Pine, famous for its sooth-
ing effect on throat membranes. Money

every way.

RELIEF IS HELD
PERMANENT

Predicting that "relief is here
to stay" Mayor Fiorello H. La
Guardia told the Town Hall discus
sion assembly last night that stead
lily increasing burdens of taxation
must be anticipated in the United
States during the next decade.
New funds will be needed, he
explained, to finance old-age pen
sion, unemployment insurance,
municipal ownership of electric
utilities, Slum-clearance projects
and other Socialistic programs.
TO administer the ever-growing
functions of municipal govern
ment efficiently, he told his audi
ence, city machinery must be
purged of patronage politics and
spoils appointments. He won an
ovation by his account of how he
had driven gangsters, grafters. and
racketeers out of New York.
"The Government certainly
cannot step out Of the relief pic
lures at the moment"
La Guardia said this is in dis.
cuSsing New York'S relief load.
Hardly any major city could take
over its own burden of relief, he
added.
Every large city. should operate
its own public utilities, he urged.
He advocated enlarged spending
by the Federal Government for
low-cost housing, and suggested
his audience work on Capitol Hill
for an expanded spending pro-
gram under the Wagner housing
bill. He said:
"TIe thing to do is to tear
down slums and tenemensS and
put up cheerful dwellings in
their place. If private capital
can't do it, then the Govern
ment must"
After his talk, Mayor La Guardia
hurried to Union Station to board
a train for New York, where he
had arranged a conference early
today with leaders in the build,
ing service strike. Several thou.
sand elevator operators, doormen,
janitorS, firemen and domestic
servants left their posts Sunday
morning in a walkout, which
strike leaders claimed would be
extended today to every impor.

of it,"

referred to had not brought satisfactory or
adequate results, the islander replied:

BY COnStance d. II. DameI
The Interior Department is skilfully
opposing the granting of larger measure
of self government to the Virgin Islands by
having William H. HASTE appear before
the Senate Committee on InSular Affairs.
Thus the parties on both sides are color
ed and the color issue is avoided at the
hearings before the Senate Committee.
The issue is drawn between two bills,
one drawn by the Virgin Islanders and the
Interior Departments own bill, fathered by
Governor Cramer, DIR. Ernest Gruening
white, director of the Division of Island
Possessions, and Mr.. Hastie.

EDITORIAL

From an article which we reprint today
our readers will see kthat several persons
on the mainland have attended the hear
ings on the organic act held by Committees
of Congress.
The tendency seems to be . broadening
of the base of suffrage In the islands, but
a corresponding narrowing of the already
slender political powers now enjoyed by
the legislative bodies.
Conditions In the Virgin Islands where
the people have no voice in the selection of
the executive officials call for a slight de
parture from what is understood to be the
American system of Government. An
American official in the Virgin Islands owes
no obligation to the people for his office nor
for the salary he draws.
By the very virtue of his office he con
troll the institutions of the people and ex
ponds the public revenues raised in the
municipality.
Since he is responsible only to those to
whom he owes his appointment the govern
ment of Denmark set up the Municipal
Committee through which the people could
partake in the management of the public
institutions.
The Department of Interior is now try
ing to take away that right, and the argu
ment advanced is that it is un-American
to have committee of the legislature TAX
ing part in the administration of the public
business.
The people of St. Croix do not show
united front. If we did our progress would
be more rapid, our gains secured, and we
would command the respect of those sent
to govern the islands
A mass meeting, under the auspices of
the Women's Suffragstte League and al
lied organizations was held In st. Thomas.
The crowd was large and representative
and pledged its unalloyed support to the
delegates by vote of confidence and says
3'The Emaneipator," cable was immedi
ately despatched to Washington.

SELF SUPPORT

Had the islands received these sums as
direct gifts ito be supervised and partic
pated in under Section So of the Colonial
Law Act of March 3, 1919, we would at
this time have long been self-supporting,
declared Mr.. Roberts.
Continuing, he asserted that before the
transfer Of the islands, their economic STA
tus was normal"
A resolution introduced by Carl H.
Madsen and Ashley Totten, of New
York, representing continental island
groups, called for support of the is
land bill and for protection of native
born islanders from a continual inva
sion by a rapidly increasing stream of
Continental Americans who seek to
gob . up all Government jobs.

Never Silent Club

Mrs. VIM. LighthiZer was hostess
to the Never Silent club last Thurs
day afternoon. Mrs VIM. Heron
presided over the business meeting,
and as the lecturer was not present
Mrs. Harry Ham had charge of the
program. In the roll call many in
teresting historical events were
brought to mind, one of importance
to farm women being the triennial
conference of the associated coun-
try women of the world. The meet
ing at Washington, May 81 to June
6, will be the first in America. Be
tween 1000 and 1900 rural women
from 40 different nations are ex-
pected to attend the conference.
Their aim is to promote more satis-
factory rural life throughout the
world. Mrs. Roy Ganshimer in her
talk on How to look trim though
a farmers wife," brought out the
point that to be we'll dressed we
should not copy other peoples
clothing, but dress to suit our own
individuality. The subject, "Rural
electrification. was opened by Mrs.
John Rutledge, and lively discus
sion followed. Also compressed
gas for cooking and refrigeration
was discussed. Nice refreshments
