issue, but if we understand the
struggle in the world today by the
Democracies against those dicta-
torial powers, which are seeking
ito rule the world by force of arms,
and control mans thinking, we
can never conceive of the United
States-the most democratic and
liberal country of the world-im-
posing on the People of the Vir-
gin Islands anything which the
people do not want.
My dear friends, you heard the
Governor compared the compensa
ton received by your legislators
with those received by various
state legislators. The first state
which our governor selected as ex
Ihibit "a" was Alabama. The Com
mittee feels that a better COMPARE
son could have been given if our
Chief Executive had also pointed
out the salary the Governor of
Alabama receives.
Now, they say comparisons are
|odious, and we hate very much to
have to go into this business of
comparing the salary of our Gov
ernor with that paid by other
places; nevertheless, in order to
present a vivid picture of facts,
without bias, the committee has
no alternative but to give you the
