Check The Score Again Mr.. Taylor

Nneck Inc score Again. M. Taylor
EVERI4NOW and agannthere is an attack, directly or
otherwise, on the office of the Administrator for St. Croix.
This has been done ever since the office was created, and
there has been but one Administrator. In all these times the
Avis has made a very serious effort to see clearly the issues,
and to ask for moderation, for indeed, many of the attacks
were nfounded, and others were directed only because it
was thoughtthat such attacks found favorwith groups at mass
meetings and elsewhere. However, we are of the opinion that
in true democratic fashionit is the publics right to speak its
mind on any issue, for only in so doing can any public official
know where he stands. But it must not be misunderstood that
we favor opinion, just for the sake of sheer opinion. Unless
there is something to saypeople should not disrupt the normal
functioning Of government to say what might best be left I'M
said.
. DURING The plans for the visit of President Truman
to these islands, the Administrator flew to St. Thomas and
there, we believe, received his instructions. However, had it
not been for the quick, and insiStent work of Chairman Alex
ander Moorhead of the Council, many little kinks, SO far as
ST Croix was concerned, would not have been. ironed out
The St. Crox Council which we understand was orr
ginaIIy omitted from many activities of the program, finally
came into its own. In the parade, which was to have bypass
ed Government House, last minute plans were brought about
through the inquiry of this Editor, and the President saw the
historic structure and the store where Alexander Hamilton
worked as a boy There was nothing unsafe or dangerous about
the President continuing down King Street past that point.
CRITICISM has often been made that the Admin
istrator skirts around the Council in many matters which that
body has a perfect right to know about and engage in. In So
doing there is a measure Of injustice, for il is natural that when
influential visitors and officials come here and are given only
one point Of view, they go away undoubtedly without a round
ed picture. The Administrator is primarily a coordinatng Of
ficer. He is the titular head Of the Island, and while his duties
