@SUPPERTIME CHATS"

@SUPPERTIME CHATS"
WITH THE initiation Of ~suppertime chats. Governor
de Castro has an excellent opportunity to keep the public in
formed Of what is taking place, what steps are being taken to-
meet delicate and difficult situations, and what the govern
ment proposes to do in the future. 1t has always been one Of
our contentious that a sore spot with the entire political pic
tue is that the public is not sufficiently informed on things
governmental. When, therefore, the government makes a
move the reaction which follows is either favorable or bitter
(mostly the latter because those directly affected either are
totally unaware of the significant implications, or totally ig-
norant Of the entire matter. And it is this vacuum which makes
possible a type Of attack which sounds creditable even if
entirely without foundation. The reason is that in the absence
Of a positive awareness and understanding Of what is really
happening any statement whatever, especially if it takes the
form of attack, meets approval.
ONE OF THE certain and most effective methods of get
ting the record straight is for the Governor to make frequent
appearances in these suppertime chats. The Virgin Islands are
the smallest political unit under the American flag Because OF
heritage and background there are most excellent opportuni-
ties here for the most effective practice OF real democracy.
Here is fertile soil for the truest equality in government and
everything else. Here is good opportunity tor politicians to put
into practice those things which other peoples only hear or
read about. All in all, therefore, the Virgin Islands should be
the most perfect example Of democracy in action, and indeed
political scientists should hasten to these parts to see in action
those ideals which they preach about in their classrooms and
from the public platform.
IT is OFTEN necessary when an approach such as we
take here is made to remind our readers that sound, construc-
tive leadership does not require the loudest, most scathing and
sVicious attacks on everyone. That is always the easiest method
and the one adopted by those who neither see the point nor
~kYowwhat to do about it when they see It. Sound leadership
requires more serious thought, and above all a pointing Of the
way out. Anyone can criticize. II takes something more to ven
lure forth with a solution good, bad o. Indifferent.

him. 1t was odd, this amicable con.

like the other occasions on which he
had been pseudo-friendly, she told
herself. He would grow cool and dis
tant when the emergency was over.
Tomorrow, she thought bleakly, he
would greet her with that icy polite
ness he was such a master of.
AS if he had read her thoughts,
the man suddenly asked, us 1t true

Virginia jerked away from Phil
Harvey's restraining hand and
lunged toward Dudley Page as the
latter walked into the waiting room
of the hospital with Elizabeth Moore
by his side. Virginia had been
pacing up and down the room,
pausing now and then to peer with
anguished eyes out of the window.

1t was odd, she thought, that he
should stay in here. He wasn't
obliged to. He could have gone in
and witnessed the operation or
waited outside in the corridor.
How did you know where to
look for Leonardo" he asked.
They were III the surgeons dress
ing room. 1t was a small space,
brightly lighted. He feels that he
must talk, she thought, and fixing
her eyes on row of white lockers,
she said, That abandoned boat
house is one of Leonard's faVorite
spots. He told me he sometimes went
there when he needed to escape
from the world" A faint, ironic
smile touched her lips. you doubt

in my room one evening? That was
Leonard. He wasn't in my room,
though. He was outside. He was up
set and he came to me seeking ad-
vice" She went on to recount what
Leonard had told her concerning
Dudley Page. He was up in arms
about the insult to his sister," Kate
said. HE wanted Virginia to know
but induced him to wait until she
was sure Of her cap. Poor boy, he
was in torment! He didn't reckon
the cost to himself when he took
this way of preventing Dudley Page
from achieving his ambition" Kate
paused, then sighed unhappily. II
can't help but feel that it's largely
my fault that he's in there on the
operating table"
''You shouldn't blame yourself"
Scott said.
''But I do" She pressed her hands
together. II do"
He brought another chair and sat
down beside her.

His eyes were on her face again
and all at once it became unbear-
