SLOW VOTE
 IN SPECIAL
 ELE(TI0N N
Polls Will Remain Open Until p. M. on City
 Bond Issue

Poor weather kept many voters away from the polls today who might have cast ballots in the Special City Election being held to approve a S5O,0o0 revenue bond is- sue for an Airport Administration Building. Only 87 persons had cast ballots at pm. today.
 Another fact which contributed to the slow vote was yesterdays holiday which took most persons minds away for the important vote.
 Polls will remain open until ' pm. and any registered voter may cast a ballot. It is not necessary to be a taxpayer. All votes are being cast at the City Hall only and voters from Precincts 3 and 3 must vote there
 The ballet has only two choices, "Yes" CT No on the proposition which will permit the City to sell s59.CoO in revenue bearing bonds which have already been promised to airline companies. The bonds will not obligate taxpayers and they will he amortized out of income from rentals and concessions in the building.

Quick Action Averts
Dangerous Fire

Quick action by August Bis
Serup assisted by Fernando
Mimic and Alex Williams, pre-
vented what might have easily
turned out to be a disastrous
fire at the southeast corner Of
King and Market Streets in
ChriStiansted, the home of the
former.
Mr.. Bisserup was attempting
to light a kerosene stove when
it suddenly blazed up. He
quickly began throwing water
on the stove. The attention Of
the other two men were at
tracted and they rushed up
stairs while one pumped fur
iously the other threw water
on the flames and quickly put
it out
The fire engine responded
to the summons but every
thing was under control when
it arrived. Fortunately, too,
was the fact that the blaze
took place in a kitchen built
of stone and concrete.

CANADAY WRITES
MEMBER or WAYS,
MEANS CONN.

Ward Canaday, who has all
ways battled for st. Croix and
the Virgin Islands, several
days ago wrote a letter to the
Honorable Wilbur D. Mills of
the House Ways and Means
Committee in connection with
the recent tabling of the In
ternal Revenue Bill. Mr.. Can
aday wrote as a private citizen
and taxpayer.
In this letter Mr.. Canaday
appealed to Mr.. Mills to bring
out for prompt consideration
by Congress the simple and
barely fair request provided
for in Bill 1896, to see that
these Islands are given the
means with which to take care
of and plan for their daily af-
fairs" and concluded by say
ing that if this was done it
would bring permanent pros
.perity which will be a credit to
your foresight"
The full text of the letter
will be published in another
issue of the Avis.
