PRESS RELEASE:
CYRIL KING, NATIVE 3 ST. CROIX. WRITES
RECOMMENDATION OF G. OF G.

Washington. DC, June %, 1852. Cyril T. King a native
Of the Virgin Islands and student in the field Of Public Admin
istration at the American University, Washington, DC, today
released the text Of a letter which he sent to the Municipal
Council for St. Croix on the subject Of the recommendation Of
the St. Croix Chamber Of Commerce that a tax be placed on
food.
The full text Of Kings letter follows:

payers, taxes fall under two
general categories: Cd Progress
sive, such as the income tax
and (2) regressive, such as ex-
else and sales taxes. There
exists, of course, varying de-
grees of progressiveness and
responsiveness. But. there
could be no more regressive
form Of taxation than that on
food.
The term "regressive tax"
applies to any form of tax
which takes a. proportionately
greater share Of disposable in
come from those persons in a
community who are least able
to pay. It disproportionately
increases the financial burden
Of the poorer people.
If the Chamber Of Com
merce's recommendation were
adopted, consumers will not
be able to take home as much
food for $500 as they used to
before adoption Of the recon-
mendation. This means that
those persons who used to put
aside a few dollars for rainy
days will be faced with the
problem Of either putting
aside less each pay day, and in
some cases none at all, or of
eating less. As for the poor UNI
fortunate persons who are, at
best, barely trying to make
ends meet-you gentlemen of
the Municipal Council who
are their representatives know
better than I do what such an
act as that proposed by the
Chamber of Commerce would
mean to them.
For the select few whose
cause 50 moved the proponent
of this monstrous proposal
that it felt duty bound to come
to their aid, the effects might
not be as beneficial as it APP
pears. They too will get less
at the grocery counter for
what they used to spend.
Therefore, they too will have
to spend a greater portion of

Der Of Commerce regrettably
chose to recommend.
It might well be that by the
time this letter reaches the at
tention of the Municipal Coun
Gil, this recommendation Of
the Chamber of Commerce
would have been disposed of
one way or another. But,
whether or not this is 50, it is
reasonably certain that, just
as this is not the first time, it
will not be the last we hear Of
this recommendation.
This proposal, if accepted,
will be a threat to the very
survival Of a majority Of the
people of st. Croix. 1t would
be a fraud on the vast number
Of poor people who are at best
merely eking out a living. It
would place the Municipality
Of ST. Croix in the position Of
providing for the welfare Of
only a select few who are,
relatively speaking, reason
ably secure financially at the
expense Of making life more
miserable for those who al
ready have far less with which
to make ends meet than is
considered adequate under
present day recognized and ac-
cepted standards Of living-far
less than is needed to provide
for themselves the bare neces-
sites Of life.

they want to continue to take

which otherwise would have

increased cost of groceries
may exceed the S salary

The West End News proper
" labeled this recommends

indicate a total disregard for
and indifference on the part
of the Chamber of Commerce
toward the plight of the large
segment Of the people. in st.
Croix who are struggling
from day TO day to exist on
mere pittance. The Municipal
Council cannot permit itself to
be a party to this deceptive
scheme.
That the Chamber of Conn
merce would stoop so very low
in search of means to make
possible the payment Of high
er salaries to the supposedly
grossly underpaid Choice
government officials" at the
expense of the lesser FORUM
ate people of st. Croix is
nothing short Of ruthlessness
on the part Of what should be
a responsible organization, an
organization to which the com
munity should be able to turn
for aid in its efforts to intelli-
gently a n d constructively
meet its economic problem. It
should be borne in mind that
the test of a democracy is not
whether it adds to the wealth
Of the rich-but whether it
provides enough for those who
have too little"
do hope that the Municipal
Council will see this recon-
mendation for what it really
is a n d resoundingly dis
approve it.

The recommendation referred

The continued support of the com.

Countries which no longer hear the
songs of birds have learned to their
sorrow that crops cannot survive
the ravages of insects, and the land
can no longer produce either grain

plays its part in the balance Of
nature by eating its share of the in

Mrs. Frances Hames Vice Presi-
dent of the local Society, reports
that more than so species of birds
may be seen on the island of Key
West this week, which is a record
in the history of the Audubon Socie-
ty. This unsual fall migration may
be due to number of reasons, but
Audubon members believe it is due
to the cooperation of the Key West
public. the chools. and the children
in protecting birds during the past
few years.
All migratory song birds are pro-
tected by Federal law in accor-
dance with an agreement made
many years ago with Great Britain,
the United States and Mexico. Key
West is located on the Eastern or
Atlantic Flyway, a great bird mi
grafton path, taking birds from Ca
NADIA and the Northeastern United
States to Cuba, Central and South
America where they escape death
from severe Northern winters. They
again return to the North in the
spring, by way of Key West, to
nest and rear their young. This sea-
son many immature birds, in plum
age not ordinarily seen. are in this
fall migration. II is difficult to de-
termine their species even by close
observation.
Among the unusual birds for the
Key West area seen recently are

sci and the Iceland Gull. The Ice

much it has remained here since.

Bursting 24-Inch Pipeline Blasts WOrkmen

MARIETTA, Pa, (P)-A tenn porary section of the big 24-inch pipeline ripped open Saturday, apparently from internal pressure. Six workmen were injured as gas pouring from the line under 500 pounds pressure spread danger ously explosive fumes across the flat Lancaster County country side.
 There was no fire. Police and volunteer firemen spread quickly through the countryside warning people of the danger and extin- gushing all open flames.
 The break occurred in a flat field where the 24-inch pipeline had been placed on the surface during construction of a new con- pressor station.
 All of the men hurt were work ing at the station. They suffered extensive brush burns and bruises as the speeding wave of gas whipped up stones and earth and pelted them with it as though it had been fired from a giant shotgun.
