gin Islands, we might as well pre-
pare now to have a, tough struggle
ahead and forget all of this pre-
tence of Democracy in action and
great self-government for the
suffering poverty-stricken masses
of the Virgin Islands.
History has recorded for our
benefit that where representation
in legislative bodies is chosen
solely from among the more fl
nancially secured elements of Soc
iety the day laborer and middle
class invariably suffer hardship
and oppression. We also find that
this type of representation usual
ly have selfish interest to be
served and cannot be said to do
the greatest good for the greatest
number.
The Governor stated, in his
radio talk on Tuesday, & I quote:
Il am in favor of an adequate
per-diem for legislators during
sessions. This is the method of
compensation provided in the
new Organic Act for Guam, just
passed by the Congress. And we
will be decieving Ourselves if we
think that we r going TO get diff
ferent treatment. The salaries we
pay to our legislators far exceed
what is paid in many States"
The Governor contends that the
salary now paid to your represen-
tatives in the Virgin Islands are
excessive and should be on a per
diem basis during the time the
legislature is in session. My
friends, the method of compensat-
ing legislators has been one of the
subjects which has received the
strict attention of political ex-
perts.. Quite recently the Council
of State Governments studied this
matter, and this is what it found,
and | quote from the Councils re-
port:
"The belief has been wide
spread that the compensation of
legislators is inadequate for the
public service they are called up
On to render. Many states have
considered salary or per diem in
creases for legislators since 1912
and more than twenty increases
have been granted. An adequate
annual salary should permit the
legislator to devote himself to his
legislative duties, during and be-
tween sessions. PER DIEM PAY
MENTS DO NOT ENCOURAGE
THIS OBJECTIVE. Moreover,
their use NOT INFREQUENTLY
