The collection in this coun-
ty has been held up for.
several weeks by the State
Board of Tax Appeals, since
they would not approve the
local rates of taxation. They
have since ordered another re-
appraisement of property in
Noble County, claiming that the
tax valuation is not high enough
for this county.
Treasurer Pryor estimated that
approximately $4,000 will be
collected in taxes during the
next month and possibly more.
He based this claim on the
fact that delinquent tax lands in
Noble County will be advertised
for the first time in ten years,
March &c., and there are many
who will pay up their delinquent
taxes.
Auditor Jack Wilson said to-
day that the delinquent land list
was completed and now ready
for publication. 1t will be carried
in the March 29th., issue of The
Journal and Noble County Lead
er.
The tax books in Noble County
are normally opened in January
but due to the delay by the state
department, local officials are
several weeks behind.
According to a check, at the
office of Auditor Wilson, $38, ,099.-
88 has been collected in personal

woman in this county a
chance to come to Caldwell
and register.
Conducted by the Noble Coun-
ty Chamber of Commerce, the
survey is being held because a
large Ohio manufacturing con-
cern, making small metal pro-
ducts, is interested and its i'm
portance to the future industrial
development of this county can
not be overestimated.
Volunteer workers have been
secured to aid in the registering
of the hundreds who are expect
ed to take part. The patriotic
rooms are located on the first
floor of the courthouse near the
south entrance.
Clarence J. Estadt, president
of the c. of c., said today that
many former residents of this
county, who are now employed
In Canton and other neighbor-
ing cities, have indicated they
will be in Caldwell on Saturday
and register.
They have expressed the de-
sire in letters to the organization
that they would much rather
work in plant at Caldwell than
in the cities. where living ex-
penses are so high.
Young men and women, who
will have reached their 18th,
birthday by September Of this
year are also urged 90 reg Ter.
They will be eligible for a Job
at this time and it is important
that you get your application in
early.
In conjunction with this labor
survey, the Noble County Cham
Der of Commerce, has taken an
option on the Wiley Stringer
farm south of Caldwell. 1t is this
site on U. S. Route 81, one mile
south of Caldwell, that the
manufacturing concern is most
interested.
Members of the Chamber of
Commerce have been busy this
week, contracting key men in all
the communities of the county,
and they in turn will assist in
getting the people out to regist-
er.
Young and old, men and wom-
en-, and those who are already
working but would prefer a
change of jobs are urged to parti-
cipate in the survey and regist-
er at the courthouse Friday and
Saturday.
1t will be noted that the sur
vey hours were changed to 900
o'clock Friday, and Saturday
evenings to permit many who
work during the day to come in
and register.
Every possible angle has been
investigated by the Chamber of
Commerce and every effort is
being made this week to make
the labor survey an outstanding
one.
Importance of the survey de-
pends on the number of men and
women who register and each
working individual should make
it a point to come to Caldwell
March 16 and II and cooperate
with the Chamber of Commerce
in this, their most sustained in

Editorial


CONVENTION OF RGI ISLANDERS
THE TIME HAS come for Virgin Islands organizations
in New York to put their forces together on a more effective
and productive basis. There is nothing that quite equals the
power of organized groups, especially when these groups
have some definite purpose an dobjective, and what greater
objective could there be than, to work for an improved home
land?
SO FAR AS WE know there are at least a dozen Virgin
Islands groups in New York. These include the American
Virgin Islands Civic Association of which Ashley L. Totten
is president, The Coordnating Committee Of Virgin Islands
Societies of which Joseph Ritzberg is head,' the West Indian
Benevolent Society," the Ladies Aid of which Mrs. Redala
Mathews is the president, Sthe Congressional Council, and
many, many others, These organizations boast memberships
into the thousands and their treasures, if taken collectively
would represent a respectable account in anybodys bank.
This is pointed out merely to show that there is the potential,
which if used effectively could turn the tide-in such impor-
tant matters as the new Organic Act and the return of the
Internal Revenue taxes.
THESE ORGANIZATION should plan, & very soon,
to hold a full Pledged convention, preferably in New York
City. This convention could undoubtedly be the biggest and
most colorful affair of the year affecting Virgin Islanders.
Members of the several groups could meet, representatives
from the islands should be invited and other organizations
and groups sympathetic to the aims and ideals and problems
of the Virgin Islands should be invited to take part. And in
addition, certain key politicians should be invited to address
the group, and thus be present to see and hear for themselves
that there is a combined group of natives on the mainland
which could become a factor with which to reckon political
l.
DETAILS OF SUCH a convention are not for us to
work out here. There is the talent and know-how right with
in the organizations themselves, and the several committees
could be appointed, and a most satisfactory job could be as
sured. What is important is that the thought take rect. The

thing. The word morals" is
far too elastic to be of value in
limiting restrictive legislation:
Professor Chafee's group recon-
mended a specific prohibition
against previous censorship of
written and printed matter. The
Supreme Court has reid that
prior censorship of news is forbid
den by the Constitution.
In the final draft of the proposed
Covenant, however, this guaran-
tee is conspicuously absent. We
cannot assume thatif the Covenant
were ratified the Supreme Court
would not attribute some signif-
icance to this commission.
Professor Chafee's group re-
cognized that penalties might be
imposed with respect to express
ions about other persons which
defame their regulations: d.
without benefiting the public"
This is fairly satisfactory defin-
ition of the law of libel. The
Covenant as finally drafted by
the full commission permits pen
alties to be imposed merely to
protect the regulations of others.
No doubt Nehru and Juan Peron
are pleased to learn that suppress
ion af EhaF.fxr Of fha rarncc fp,- The
purpose of protecting their polit-
ical regulations is to be sanction
ed by a United Nations treaty
Since the trial of John Peter
Zenger in New York in tire year
1735 American newspapers have
not been required to deal gingerly
with the regulations of govern
ment officials. I will not be a
party to turning back the clock
216 years to protect my own
political reputation or that of any
other public official.
Perhaps the most shocking
feature of article IA 81 of the
proposed Covenant is that it
WOULD AUTHORIZE PENAL
TIES TO BE PLACED ON THE

TECT THE RIGHTS AND THE
FREEDOMS OF OTHERS. On
its face. this provision does not
appear to be unduly alarming.
However. Part III of the Coven-
ant is devoted TO listing the So
called economic rights of every
human being in the world Bear
in mind, Mr.. President, that
American newspapers could be

rights of others, and that the
following is only a partial listing.
