CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ON THE ORGANIC ACT

LAST FRIDAY night the St. Croix Chamber Of Com
merce conducted a meeting of its general membership, in Or
der to pay special attention to the matter of the proposed
new Organic Act. The meeting was well attended, and many
members offered suggestions and recommendation which the
Legislature might well view seriously. Among these sug-
gestons were opposition to u a single Legislature, () a sin
gle treasury 81 an elected Governor. They expressed them
selves as faroving u a Rsident Commissioner ~ return Of
the Internal Revenue Tax and ~ an Administrator for Saint
Croix, who would be appointed.
WHEN A civic organization such as the Chamber of
Commerce takes time out to discuss at length new legislation
it is a good sign that the future of this place will evoke inter
est. The type OF government we have can be no better than
demands placed upon it by private citizens who take a real,
live interest in all phases of life.
EVERYONE KNOWS that Congress reflects the think
ing OF the nation. People on the continent do not hesitate to
write their Congressman as to their views, and the same
should be the pattern here. But more, when civic groups 90
on record as taking a given stand, even in these Islands, such
"a stand should be relayed to Congress, and the effect can be
most positive.
H LEGISLATIVE Assembly meets therefore with a
wealth of information before it from MANY sources for their
final recommendations to Congress. At least the Assembly is
in a position to say that what is being recommended repre-
SCENTS the tull will and expression of the people of the Islands.

EO1IOr1alS
Mr.. BOUGHS RECOMMENDATIONS VALUABLE
THE RECOMMENDATIONS on the proposed Organic
Act by Attorney James A. Bouugh printed in the AVIS recent
" and other papers deserve mStncted gratitude from every
one in these Islands. Although Mr.. Bough himself admits that
only limited research had been done, yet the Information sup
porting the recommendations was most enlightening. In fact
further research does not even seem necessary. The recommen
dations are comprehensive and very much to the point. There
tons are comprehensive and very much to the point. There
is nothing complicated about them, and they should be easily
understood.
SINCE THE release on the Organic Act the people of
these Islands have shown considerable concern. The Organic
Act is our constitution. It is the one document which will in
sure rights, individual and property, within the framework of
the local government. Of course, the basic freedoms of the
Constitution are undoubtedly guaranteed to the people of
the Virgin Islands since we are also citizens Of the United
States. However, Just as each state and territory has its con
stitution or organic act, so should we. 1t is the document
which gives details of rights and guarantees.
WAS significant about the proposal for a new
organic act was that the very people for whose benefit the
act was being passed were neither consulted beforehand nor
had an opportunity to sit and work on it. This is the reason
why there was so much effort to register sentiments relative
to the Act.
ATTORNEY BOUCH who spent many years as District
Attorney for the Islands, and whose frst-hand knowledge Of
the local government is most extensive, has given, in his re-
concentrations an excellent picture of the situation as it
should be under the new act. Such recommendations should
not go unheeded. The Legislative Assembly should not over
look MI. Boughs recommendations. The legislature may not
see fit to adopt them as a whole, but their value is neverthe-
less significant.
AWORD Of appreciation from our people go out to Mr.
Bough for his most timely recommendations on the proposed
new Organic Act.

Should q Person Be Judged
By What He Says
Or By How He Says 1t?

A cabbie was hurt in a collision,
and sued the other driver for dam
ages. When the motorist was held
liable, his lawyer appealed the
case to higher court. The lawyer
pointed out that his client had told
smooth. logical story-while the
cabbie had used awkward, hating
phrases. But the court was not inn
pressed and turned down the ap-
peal. The judges said that even
more important than the words
themselves are ''the furtive glance,
the blush of shame, the hesitation,
the sneering tone, the yawn, the
sigh, the brazen face Of the liar,
the honest face of the truthful one.
A witness may give testimony that
reads, in print, as If falling from
the lips Of an angel, and yet not
soul who heard it believed word.
Another may testify so that 1t reads
brokenly in print, and yet some
thing about him carried the convic-
ton Of truth to everyone who heard
him speak"

RABIES CLINICS TO START

Because of the increasing mum

serious menace. Vaccination of
animals is the only means of pre-

A similar countrywide program

fortunate aspects of rabies is that
it strikes principally at children.
According to census bureau fig

from rabies occur among children

deaths occur among children un-

A wealthy broker decided to give
his wife a custom-built car, tall

the order, at price of $500, but
shortly before the gift was deliv-
cred the broker was killed in a
plane crash. The executors of his
estate fatty refused to pay for the
car, arguing that the mans death
made it impossible" to carry out
the contract. However, the court
disagreed and ordered the auto
maker paid in full. The judge
pointed out that all the broker had
contracted to do was to pay $500
and his executors could do that just

anybody who takes someone else's
