LET'S MAKE GOO SELECTION
NOW THAT thoughts are beginning to turn to the retire
ment OF Administrator Taylor, there seems to be a mad rush to
have the position filled by favorites from every quarter. with
little or no thought to what it requires either in terms of ability
or attitude. 1t seems only natural that since the Administrator
tor st. Croix is the ttular head of the Island, and the official
representative of official Washington, some consideration
should be given to qualified natives. In addition to all this,
further thought should be given to men whose service is a fac
tor.
Y SINCE it became an established policy to place
qualified natives in responsible positions, it also evolved that
the people OF these Islands also should have a voice. If that
were not the case then the placing of native sons in positions
would De but a mere pawn in the hands Of those who made
the appointments. In that connection, and carrying this demo-
cratic policy further, it would seem as if St. Croix should be
consulted more fully on the matter.
THERE IS YET considerable time to 60, at least eight
months, and much can happen in that time. However, in po-
lidcal matters, and this is certainly one, leaders like to have
time in which to align their forces and bring pressure to bear.
1t is hoped that in all this scramble, careful thought will be
given to what the position entails, and that mere whim and
fantacy will not get the better Of certain elements in the com
munity. Such an attitude would quickly ruin the effective
usefulness of the position, and make it nothing but a political
football.
THEN, TOO, there is the danger of becoming SO emo
tional that all sorts of factions bring their would-be power to
bear in such fashion that no attention whatever is given to
the main factor-service to the people Of this Island. Expert
ence has shown that this type Of thing gives official Washing
ton a deep sense of disgust, and in order to offend no one, an
appointment is made from a totally unheard of quarter.
Should the time come when the people are decided that there
is some candidate who has the backing Of the great majority,
then proper representation may be made, and such will have
its effect.
IN ALL THIS, let there be sound action following care

The first snowiakes Of the sea-
son usually hits the householder

him that little or nothing has been
done about getting his house ready
for winter.
For instance, right now I have
to interrupt this. 60 down to the
basement and shut off the water
supply to the outdoor garden hose
taps. then go out and open the
taps for drainage and leave them
open for the winter. We're due
for q freeze.
Now that little jobs done, but
some more important jobs proba-
bly, won't be done. because we all
| get started too late on these
lchange-of-s season chores.
No season puts as much strain
on q house as winter. AS soon as
the leaves are gone, much of the
Withdrawing quality of the trees
is gone too. and unless you live in
the shelter Of tall pines. your
house is exposed to buffeting and
lshakedowns in every gale.
Start with the roof. Modern
asphalt shingles have been an eco
nomic godsend in most sections Of
the country. But II they haven't
been applied properly. you can
often see them duttering In ex-
lposed locations.
Secure Shingle Tabs.
OF course, a windstorm clause
in your fire insurance policy will
cover actual damage, but who
wants to chance a wet ceiling
while waiting for repairs after
shingles have blown off? A dab
Iof asphalt cement about as big
las a half dollar. under the tab Of
each shingle Of this type, will give
you a real wind-tight roof.
A late fall inspection is a good
idea in connection with any roof.
Curled or split wooden shingles
ought to be flattened or replaced
before another winters ordeal.
Rains and thaws can let water get
into joints and crevices in any
structure. A freeze follows and

"I'd just have to throw in the
sponge"
Then / began thinking: "Just
why is the washing machine so
necessary"
The most important reason is to
keep our families and homes clean.
Cleanliness is the foundation of
health, and good health is a prime
requisite for high morale, a vital
ingredient for personal and ma
tional success either in peace or
Wa/.
! At least seven out of every 10
American housewives do the family
washing at home, where they have
no choice but to use washing
machine. That is, unless you can
possibly consider a return to great
grandmother's scrubboard as an
alternative.
The fact that I have a new wash
ing machine doesn't serve one bit
to cool my indignation over state
ments that production of the "lux-
ury" washing machine may have to
be discontinued.

useless and are being junked.

that these machines be replaced.
for the health and cleanliness OF
the people with whom we associate
is as important to US as the health
and cleanliness of our own families:
It's my own opinion that it's OF

the surest ways to weaken a nation
is to first weaken the unity ana

Council anticipates the formation
of the future International House

tional Baha'i Assemblies as the
legislative body for Baha'iS in all
parts of the world. To the nine
national Bahai Assemblies exist
ing at present, the announcement
continues, will be added in April
two new national Assemblies
representing the Bahais OF Cen
trail and South America. The ex
perience acquired by these ma

emergence of the independen

U. S. Supreme Court To Decide On
Question Of Selecting Juries

WASHINGTON, u. Z. (NNPA)-
The United States Supreme Court
has under advisement the question
Of the constitutionality of juries
selected on a racially proportion
ate basis.
This question was presented IN
the so-called Groveland (Florida)
case. which was argued last Fri
day.
The Groveland case involves an
appeal from the decision of the
Florida Supreme Court upholding
the conviction and death sentences
of Samuel Shepherd and Walter
Irwin, 22-year old youths, for the
alleged rape of white woman in
Lake County, Florida, July 16, 1949.
Attorneys for the condemned
youth argue in the Supreme Court
that Shepherd and Irwin were de-
MED the guarantees of the Four
teenth Amendment in that the jury
was chosen under an admitted
policy of selecting jurors accord
ing to a system of ''purposeful
racial proportionate representation,
which limited the number OF, col
ored persons on juries because of
their color"
