Past experiences have de-
monstrated that the importa-
ton of personnel from the
mainland to fill this position
has not provided the answer
to the problem of keeping a
Director on the job for more
than approximately one year.
To appoint another individual
Virgin Islander or Continen
tal-to the position of Director
OF Police over the present Act
ing Director, George A. Mat
thias, who has been heading
the Department for the past
three years would be an act of
gross miscarriage of justice
and fairplay.
Governor de Castro dis
played craftsmanship and evil
denced his determination to ad
ministrate the affairs of the
Government without regard
for the whims of petty politi-
clans when he issued an adm
term appointment to Lieuten-
ant Matthias. For the Munich
pal Council to act other than
favorably on this action of the
Governor would be most dis
heartening not only to Lieuten
ant Matthias who by virtue of
his long years of jealous and
loyal service to the Police De-
partment and the Municipality
of st. Croix is justly deserv-
ing of the appointment to the
Position of Director but also
to a host of other public Off
Gals who might some day find
themselves in a similar posi-
ton.

Mr.. Paul E. Joseph, Editor
The West End News
Frederiksted, St. Croix, vi.
Dear Mr.. Joseph:
Recently the West End
News has carried an editorial
and numerous articles relative
to the appointment of Lieuten
ant George A. Matthias as Di-
rector Of Police. Such evidence
of the growing interest on the
part of the electorate in the at
fairs of their government and
the conduct of the legislature
is most encouraging.
From July /, 1928, Lieuten-
ant Matthias served the NUM-
cipality as a Patrolman zeal
ously and to the satisfaction of
the Police Department. In due
recognition Of his loyal and sa
tisfactory service, he was pro-
noted in 1910 to Sergeant and
later to Lieutenant. Lieuten-
ant Matthias in the absence of
the Director of police has act
ed on many occasions as Direc-
tor and since the resignation
in l947 Of former Director. Ro-
binson he has been the Acting
Director of Police.
After serving for three years
as Acting Director of Police,
the Municipal Council still is
somewhat reluctant to favor
ably consider the appointment
of Lieutenant Matthias to the
position of Director. A recent
copy of the Proceedings of the
Municipal Council of st. Croix
reveals that the opposition to
his appointment stems from
petty political and personal
reasons and is led by a very
small but vociferous minority
which is determined to thwart
the will of the majority of the
members Of the Municipal
Council and a large segment

Iatures are not familiar enough
with the problems of labor
management relations to recog-
nize such deceptions as these,
those interests which would
work through the States law
making bodies to undermine La
Dor will eventually be success
full.
AS YOU know great effort is
being made to repeal the Taft
Hartley Labor Law and those
who favor it are trying to be
one jun pahead of Labor when
that day comes by having more
restrictive laws on the books in
the individual States of these
United States.
The United States Supreme
Court has held that where State
Labor Laws are more restrictive
than the Federal Law, the State
Law prevails and this means
tht in States where the closed
shop or Union shop has been
banned it will still be banned
when the Taft Hartley Law is
repealed.

to outline for you the increases
which have been granted in pay
ments for injury on the job and
for benefits when out of work,
however, / do consider it very
necessary to tell you that unless
friends of Labor, who also know
that such increases are good for
the econmoy as a whole, are
elected or reelected as the case
may be, many of the great gains
made in liberal legislation dur
ing the 98th General Session OF
the Ohio Legislature will be
lost.

Having served as a member
of Ohio Legislature, as a Repre-
sentative to the General AS
sembly from Lucas County IN
the, 98th General Session, | am
more convinced than ever that
it is vitally important to work
ing people to support and elect
to the Legislature, people who
are familiar and sympathetic
with the workers problems.
During the last General Ses-
sion of the General Assembly,
many bills were introduced
which had very serious effect
on the way workers could pur-
sue their various pursuits to
earn living
There were, just to mention a
few, S. B. 142 which amended
the Unemployment Insurance
Law, H. B. 531 which amended
the Workmen's Compensation
Law, H. B. 382 which set up
classifications for all Public
Employees and H. B. $50 which
would have banned the closed
shop in Ohio.
l would like to have you
know the methods by certain
people and certain interests to
try and confuse the issues and
catch Labor mapping. H. B. 500
gives me good opportunity to
bring this point home to you.
This bill was introduced by
Rep. Hughes of Harrison Coun-
ty, Ohio and was referred to the
Industry Labor Committee of
the House, of which | was vice
chairman, for consideration. Mr..
Hughes presented his Bill and
gave his arguments in support
of it.
He presented it as bill to
guarantee the right to work"
when in reality what would
have been accomplished If we
he'd agreed to its passage would
have been ban on the closed
shop and union security in the
great State of Ohio, an indus
trial state.

peal all the actions we took
along liberal lines in the last
Session if you do not elect the
right kind of legislators.
Unless you do your share, by
voting in the Primaries and in
the General Elections, you will
make it harder and harder for
your leaders and business repre-
sentatives in your Labor Unions
tosecure the kind of working
agreements you want and are
entitled to.
1t must be remembered that
the Laws of our State and Ma
ton must be respected and COM
piled with so it is up to you to
elect people who will make laws
whic hare fair and just so they
will be respected an dobserved
In my opinion the time is
ripe to urge the Ohio LegislP IRE
to pass law to provide COM
pensation to workmen who are
i'll and unable to work, from a
state insurance fund, because
the high cost of living today
makes it almost impossible for
the average family to provide
against the hazards of ill health.

fits should take up where Un-

More Humane Deaths
For Stray Dogs At
County Animal Shelter

A water connection to the cham
Der in which dogs are put to sleep
at the County Animal Shelter was
made last week, according to Irving
G. McNayr, County Manager. This
action was taken following the re-
quest of Stanford Chester, presi-
gdent of the Animal Rescue League
of Montgomery County, who criti-
cized the use of a new chamber
without the water connection.
The new chamber, Mr.. McNayr
said, was made according to one of
three sets of specifications handed
to him by Mr.. Chester. The set
used, he said, did not call for a
water connection. After installa-
ton, it was criticized by shelter
workers as not being properly con-
structed because of the lack of a
water connection. Dogs suffered
needless pain under the old system
of eradication, critics complained,
though Mr.. McNayr said this had
not been proven.

January To Be
Big Month For
Town BaSketeers

January, 1850 should be a big
month for the Rockville Stars and
Starlets. In this month they will
meet the strongest amateur teams
in the state.
This coming Saturday night the
girls will play St. Mary's girls of
Baltimore with the boys meeting
the Lithuanian-American Club Of
the same city. The Baltimore boys
made an excellent showing for
themselves last season when they
topped the Stars after a hard
fought game by only one point. The
St. Mary's team was the runner-up
team in the State Championship
playoffs.
Sunday afternoon will see the
Garvin's girls and the boys of
Waynesboro, Pa. in the Rockville
gym.
Next Wednesday night both the
Stars and Starlets will journey to
the Bethesda Naval Hospital to
play the Waves and Sailors of that
base.
The game that was to have been
played with Toms Auto of Silver
Spring several weeks ago failed
to materialize when the Champs of
the lower county league backed out
of the game the day before it was
to have been played.
1t would be nice to see all of
the local basketball fans out for
the remainder of the schedule.
