legislatures for time for the local
legislative committee to submit
its report, and that a reasonable
time would be given before the
Committee would take up the Or

for hearings on the Organic Act
to be held in the Virgin Islands
at the proper time. l also discussed
our proposed legislative program,
and particularly the bill to trans
fer our agricultural station to the
Department of Agriculture, with
officers of the Department Of the
Interior and the Department of
Agriculture. This bill is being ac-
lively worked upon and may be
introduced in the near future.
l am happy to announce the ap-
pointment by the Office of Price
Sterilization in Washington of Mr..
Darwin Creque as Territorial Di-
rector of the Virgin Islands Office
of Price Sterilization. MI. Creque,
the present Tax Assessor of the
Municipality of st. Thomas and

sure that his administration of

successful. The appointment of an
assistant price director for Saint
