Concluding this discussion of the
traffic survey and report, let me
congratulate Mayor Sweeney on at
last giving out an advance notice
that an executive meeting is to be
held (and certainly feel that the
Mayor and Council are entitled to
hold executive meetings from time
to time), instead of denying that
such meetings are to be held, as he
has been doing in the past.

Open Letter To The People
Of The Virgin Islands

vi IIfC Y
The editorial of May IA, in
the Photo News Of St. Thomas
entitled Elected Governor
initiates the discussion of a
public matter of vital mpor-
lance.
In order to be certain that
various other considerations
are brought to public atten-
ton, the following points are
offered for discussion in the
public debates on this issue,
which we hope will take place
in the press and on various
platforms.
|. Many years usually elapse
between the demand for a
political right an dts fulfill
ment. It took Is years to get
citizenship, 20 years to get
the Organic Act, and after 20
years the internal revenue
taxes have not yet been grant
ed by Congress. Our demand
for an elective governor should
bemade NOV to get Congress
to start thinking about it."
2. The policy of gradual
ness" has always been advo-
Gated by those who seek to de-
lay, obstruct, or finally sabot-
age a political reform pro
gram.
3. No change in the Organ
ic Act is necessary to author
ize the appointment of a Ma
tive Governor. The President
could do this tomorrow if he
SO desired.
4. The issue is whether more
self-government should be ex-
tended to the people Of the
Virgin Islands; not whether
, 1948-06-01

to increase or decrease the
appointing power of the Pres
ident.
5. 1t is doubtful whether the
Congress could legally res
trict the power Of the Presi-
dent by requiring him to APP
point a Native Governor.
6. Virgin Islanders have
been electing members to the
Legislature for over so years.
What the Organic Act did was
to extend this right to people
without property. It brought
no increase in self-government
in the executive branch of our
Government.
7. The same Native who is
said to be mot ready" to vote
for an elective governor Of
the Virgin Islands goes to
New York and votes for a
Mayor, Congressman, Senator,
Governor, and President of the
United States.
8. For those who are afraid
of the type of person who
would be elected Governor Of
the Virgin Islands, the remedy
is not to deny the right to vote
for a Governor, but to fix rea-
sonable qualifications for the
candidate for Governor.
! 9. The real and final test Of
full self-government is Wheth-
er the people decide who shall
govern them.

The Characters

THE characters at first are three:
God, Satan and a man named
Job. Job is a good man, in fact God
calls him. perfect. He is also pros.
porous. and thereby hangs the tale
For one fateful day God and Satan
have conversation about this man.
The Lord inquiries if Satan has seen
him, and how good he is. Oh yes,
Satan says airily, he has seen him,
but he does not think highly of his
goodness" He is too we'll paid
for it. He has large and happy
family, and has immense wealth;
why shouldn't he be good? Take
away his prosperity and he will
curse you to your face, Satan
sneers.
So God lets Satan work his
malice on the man. In a ter
ribia series of disasters, one
hing on anOther's heels,
everything Job has owned van
ishes. His children are killed
ny SUI anu mt anu Jul -
left childless, penniless man.
But Job will not complain: k2s
faith in God still does not waver.
So when next Satan reports to
God, the Almighty asks again: Did
you see my servant Job? He holds
fast to his integrity. All, yes. sneers
the unbelieving fiend. Yes, but he
still has his health. He can have
another family, another fortune.
Make life itself so miserable that
he will long to die, and then you
will see his goodness vanish, then
he surely will curse you to your
face.
So God let Satan do his worst
Do all you can to him, God says.
only leave him alive. And then job
is made horribly and painfully ill.,
he cannot sleep for the torture of
boils covering him from head to
foot. Three of his friends come to
visit him. For seven days they sit
in silence, and then begins great
debate, with Job on one side and
his friends on the other: Why must
such things be? Why must good
people suffer?

Was Job Real?

MONT ask: Was Job a real char
- acter, or made-up one like
Hamlet and Macbeth? 1t is very
likely there was once upon time
some man by that name who sui.
fered in that way, and that he had
friends, not too sympathetic, who
talked it over with him.
AS Hamlet and Macbeth we're his
torical chara cters, whom Shakes
peare used with high art to express
profound ideas, so the author OF
Job may well have used the trials
of some man he knew, or knew of,
to express truths about a problem
as profound and widespread as the
human race.
For Job most surely is real:
his local name may be Smith
or Jones, and he may be living
just around the corner from
you. Indeed, sooner or later
every mans name is Job.
Sooner or later, every thought
full person has TO face the
tragedy of human suffering:
Why must such things be?
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1948-11-04
Suffering Is Test

THERE is. however, one solution
which comes out in the course
of the drama. 1t is not theoretical
solution; that is, it does not alto.
gether answer the question, WHY
must men suffer? 1t does tell US
WHAT we can do about it.
Suffering is a test: A test Of
mans faith and real goodness.
"When he hath tried me-, l shall
come forth as gold" Job says.
(23:1O.) The test Of a ship is
not the quiet waters of the har-
Dor but the roaring open sea;
the test Of a man is not comfort
but stress and pain.
To have faith in God only when
we are well-fed and softly cushioned
is not faith at its best. Faith and
goodness prove their reality only
when they hold together even whcn
torn by the nails of cross.
