What is this referendum
which we are asked to take
part in on November End? No
doubt there are many Virgin
Islanders who are asking this
question at this time. This Re
ferendum is simply using the
ballot to determine the collect
i've opinion of voters. It's first
use in the Virgin Islands will
be to determine the sentiment
of the voters on certain pro-
posed changes in the Organic
Act.
Ever since the Virgin Islands
became a part of the United
States of America in 1917, we
have been progressing grad
ually in the technic and prac-
tice of democratic government
Simple a it may seem, it is an
important step in our political
history. From now on the de-
vice known as the Referen-
dunn will be used in the Vir-
gin Islands. In the future we
may be called upon to record
our opinion on other impor-
tant questions pertaining to
our Government.
The fundamental element of
American Democracy is the
theory that government is de-
rived from the consent of the
governed. This theory has
been made popular as gov
eminent of the people, by the
people, and for the people" In
determining the structure of
their government, the people
of the several states of the
Union use. the device known
as the Referendum. In some
states the Referendum is ever

We should alos remember that
there are those who would
readily replace the democratic
process with the defunct and
inhuman theology of govern
ment by force and violence.
When we think of all these
things, we realize how fortu-
nate we are to be affiliated
with a world power which be-
lieves that government should
be derived from the consent of
the people. When we think of
all these things, we will real
Fize the great opportunity we
have in being allowed to re-
cord our opinions in the Re
ferendum on November End
In these uncertain times.
peace-loving people who be
lieve in the principles of de
mocracy must cherish and
keep alive each and every de-
vice of the democratic pro-
cess. We can only do so by
practicing and applying the
technics of democracy. Here
in the Virgin Islands we are
being given a chance to keep
alive the democratic process
by participating in a referen-
dunn on proposed changes in
our territorial constitution. We
must not fail to use this op-
portunity, which millions OF
people all over the world
would sacrifice anything to
have.
When the Organic Act was
first being considered several
years ago, the people did not
show much interest in the pub
lie hearings which were held
by our local legislators. The
Organic Act was drafted and
passed by Congress without
the collective sentiment Of the
people of the Virgin Islands
first being determined. This
must not happen again. Now
that basic changes to that Inn
portant law are being propos-
ed, we must be sure to record
our opinions Of these changes.
Let us remember that we are
the ones who will have to live
under the new provisions, if

In Orgunic Act

Organic Act Reform Committee
used for the making of laws by
direct vote of the people. All
this is based on the fundamen-
tai theory that the powers and
authority Of government stem
from the people, who may
exercise these powers directly
and collectively, if they SO de-
sire.
AS a part of the great de-
mocracy known as the United
States of America, we, the
people of the Virgin Islands,
must hold as our ideal the ba-
sic theory that government is
derived from the consent of
the governed. Instituting the
device known as the Referen-
dunn into practice Of the de-
mocratic process lis a step to
wards the realization of our
ideal. 1t was with this point
in view that Governor HASTE
recommended to the LegisIa-
tive Assembly that this device
be instituted for securing the
sentiments of the people of the
Virgin Islands on the proposed
basic changes in the Organic
Act.
In considering the value of
the Referendum, it is well to
remember that today there are
millions of people all over the
world who have no say what
soever in the structure Of the
government. It is well to re-
member that there are those
in the world who would with
a sweep of the sword slash
away all the progress made in
the United States since 1776 in
establishing government by
the consent Of the governed.
