possess today. On one side was
the song, II Want to be Loved"
with a familiar phrase through

Dear Mr.. Editor:
Please allow me space in
your valuable paper to pub
lish the following:
Virgin Islanders in all walks
of life should note with keen
interest the trends that. are
coming to light, particularly
those that are innocently la
bled. Lets take for example
the Land Development or
Land Use" scheme. In the 1st
place the haste which attends
this new brain storm, and the.
race to have it made effective
without careful and compe-
tent investigation and study,
IS to say the least, alarming.
What is back of this entire
idea is important. Could it be
subtle and carefully planned
trick to upset the wonderful
progress which has been made
. - . =
IN the development of Saint
Croix within the last three
years? Is it that St. Thomas
knows us as an agricultural is
land and see in this move the
opportunity to ruin our rural
development, and to discour-
age those continentals and
others who are helping us
with this development? Who
is going to determine what is
eultivatable land and what is
not, that which is suitable for
pasture only and that which is
useless? The valuation applied
to pasture land is paid on
many hundreds Of acres of
bush which are absolutely not
accessible and entirely too
steep and rocky to do anything
with. Apart from this the val
uation applied to cultivatable
land is also paid on thousands
OF acres used Wor pasture for
the simple reason that a crop
on which money can be made
is not known to anyone here,
and the Government has mi
gerably failed to show what
better use land could be put to
IN the, Virgin Islands through
its Agricultural Stations.
Now that a few schemers
are anxious to get hold of a
building sites, the entire
Virgin Islands are to be upset,
, 1950-06-03

0SNoA1 OAAC III IlC dQ-
vocates of thisSnew tax system
come forward and show us
what crop can be grown at a
profit on land not now Guilt
waited? Certainly land not in
cultivation and even not in
use is not peculiar to the Vir-
gin Islands for there are many
thousands of acres of unused
land in the very United States.
The problem is to encourage
people to stay with the land &
not to tax it away from them.
Apart from this all land con-
sidered suitable for cultivation
IS taxed on exactly the same
basis whether it is used as pas
ture or cultivated. After re-
viewing the Homesteading
idea that was so completely
put into practice in this island.
and what has happened to the
land involved in that scheme,
then to note what the labor
Union has had to do with its
land, to the extent of even hav
ing to dispose of some of it
plus the land that the Munich
pality controls, the wicked in
tent, carefully covered in this
new imported thought, shows
its ugly head.
Why does the new Administra-
ton not spend some of its time
thinking how to help those who
today fight to do something pro-
ductive with their land, by ar
ranging some financial assistance,
advise them of new methods, sup
ply them with good seeds, assist
them with marketing, help them
to get the abbattoir started, in
stead of thinking out ways and
means to deprive them of their
heritage which they have shaved
to own. Since when are we in the
Virgin Islands setting up new
ideals opposed to freedom of
ownership and enterprise? With
the population leaving our shores
all the time who is going to take
over the land that is confiscated
from people by a group who have
only been on the receiving end
from the time they were born?
People who have never produced,
who have never had to worry
about a payroll, a market to sell
their gods, or where the next dol
lar would come from to pay their
drafts and other obligations Incl
dent to earning a living against
competition foreign and other
wise.
Who has ever heard of having
to tax a man to get him to take a
piece of land and make some
money with it? For three wears :

A DIRECTIVE WHICH is NOT

"A D1nEC11VE Which ID MOI
THE BUSINESS of the Wage Commissions directive to
the effect that employers shall file transcript of payrons or
wage records with the Wage Commissioner is likely to reach
the point where somebody's face will be red and flushed with
embarrassment, and the sooner that the Commission and the
local Government straighten the matter the better it will be.
The editorial Of the Daily News which we carry today ex-
presses the opinion of the sister island, an opinion in which
we whole heartedly concur.
BOILED DOWN to its simplest terms, the Wage Com
missioner does not have the authority to issue the directive,
and it follows naturally that absent such authority, this direc-
tive 81 in effect a nudity. That would seem simple enough, but
complications arise when, in the face Of this nulity, the Saint
Croix Chamber of Commerce advised its members to ignore
the directive. If things follow ~itlogical order, as they should,
then refusal to follow that which is not an order can amount
to no. violation of law. This point is brought out in the com
munication Of Robert Holland, who contends, and logically
SO, that the opinion coming from the District Attorneys Of
flee presents a paradox. And Mr.. Holland is SO right that there
is no room for argument.
IT MUST BE borne in mind that there are competent
legal minds in the communities, and that they can be called
upon to give opinions, and though there will be nothing Of
ficial about them, in SO far as the Government is concerned
yet they form good g~uideposts. Backing this up is the Gov
ernmentS own official legal mouthpiece, so all hands are
agreed that the directive is entirely without authority. It fol-
lows that the Chamber Of Commerce is not obstructing due
administration of law"
BECAUSE LITTLE time should be spent M throwing
words back and forth, the real solution to what looms at the
moment, is the withdrawal of this directive at once. This done
the matter will have ended with no further damage.
N WHILE ON the subject, it might be well to remind
our readers that Attorney William Moorhead is doing an ex-
ceptionally commendable job as vice president of the Saint.
Croix Chamber, and his continued efforts are bound to bring
the results for which he works 50 conscientiously This matter,
which should come to a quick end, can serve no purpose
