the Legislature is trying to do
by indirection that which Con
gress has ordered shall not be
done, for Congress has order
ed nothing. On the contrary,
ranking members and consul
tant and advisor to the Insular
Committee which held hear
ings here, indicated on more
than one occasion that they
felt that the same type of re-
preservation which Guam has
in Washington, "a Contact Of
fee filled by a capable person
who has been closely associat-
ed with Congress for years. is
the best answer for the time
being to the Virgin Islands
problem. This view was also
shared by Interior Depart
ment officials who had been
connected with the setting up
Of the Office for Guam. How
now there could be opposition
to this move.
Instead Of trying to kill the
idea of liason representation
in Washington it would be
more in accordance with the
policy of the Interior Depart
ment to shape the bill so that
it could serve fully a need

The perpetuation of the ty-
ranical policy Of imposing on
the people brand Of represen-
tation over which they have
no control is responsible for
much Of the suspicion that
exists between the branches of
the government. The attitude
of the Governor should not be
to destroy any attempt to have
proper representation, but to
guide the legislators into Sc
curing the best type Of repre-
sentation possible that will
coordinate efforts both here
and in Washington and CO.
operate fully with the Interior
Department.

REPRESENTATIVE IN
WASHINGTON

The bill passed recently by
by the Legislative Assembly
and vetoed by the Governor
purporting to create an office
of Legislative Contact Repre-
sentative in Washington adj
mittedly has some weak and
conflicting spots, but the ba-
sic idea is a good one and
should not be discarded by
any means.
The bill is weak in that the
Assembly seeks to appoint the
Contact Representative, thus
usurping tn right of the
Executive. Even the assistants
to the municipal councils must
be appointed by the Governor
and confirmed by the respec-
tive council. This post is no
different as long as the Con-
tact Representative is not
elected by the people. There is
a fear in Washington that the
Assembly is particularly IN
terested in creating this posi-
ton and filling it without
observing proper procedure
because it plans to name one
gifts members to the post. We
do not know how much truth
there is in this although in Ger
tain quarters, especially out
side of the legislature it had
been urged that the service of
Congressman Crawford be EN-
ployed as soon as he is avail
able.
The other reasons given by
the Governor for vetoing the
bill IS clearly indicative Of an
attitude that opposes any
presentation which Guam has
Washington that does not
carry the brand and continue
the policy Of the Interior De
partment. Since Congress
has not taken any kind Of ac-
ton on the request for q resi-
dent commissioner for these
islands it is not true then that

lthe Nurses Practice Act
Il have referred this bill to
the President Of the Board of
Nurses Examiners for COM
ments. The President, Miss
Laura L. Moorhead, of the
Board Of Nurses Examiners,
has advised me as follows:
To a great extent the main
substance of the bill is main
tanned, however, the Governor
and the Council and the Com
missioner Of Health seem de-
termined to ignore the views
and detectives set forth by the
Board for improving nursing
standards in the Virgin Islands.
The original drafting was to the
greater advantage Of nursing in
these parts. There seem no alter
native at this point but to yield
to individuals who feel they know
the problems better and have a
solution to them.
The majority of the Board
members desire to go on record
as objecting to the changes made
in the original draft by the Gov
ernor and Tor the Council
while I do not concur in the
comments of the Board of Nurses
Examiners as to the action either
of the Council or of.the Governor
in connection with the original
proposal of the Board of Nurses
Examiners, it seems clear that
the Board of Nurses Examiners
which will be charged with the
enforcement Of the law, if APP
proved, is not in sympathy Wi<h
the bill as it stands.
Nevertheless, as in the case of
the Medical Practice Act, / feel
that we should retain the gains
which we have made by the en-
actment of this new Nurses Prac-
tice Act with the hope that
amendments may be made from
time to time as may be needed,

which was first issued by me in

ance with these rules. Let me read
just one or two sections Of this

they have a solemn and positive

/ Set Up by DiSolle
The Consumer Advisory Com
mittee was set up by Michael v
Disable, then Director of Price
Sterilization, to balance the in
dusrty advisory committees which
were established under the Defense
Mobilization Act. The act, which
set up OPS along with other
emergency agencies after the
Korean war began, requires that
before a regulation can be issued
towering an industry, a committee
from the industry has to be con-
suited.
'Mr. Disable felt it was only
fair to give consumers the same
opportunity to be heard" Mrs
IWoodhouse explained.
i. It was a project dear to hel
heart, she added. II had been much
impressed during my two terms ir
Congress with the fact that the
consumer as such had no spOkes-
men before Congress or the eXecu-
tive agencies" she said. Every
other organized group did. The
consumer has such a broad range
of interests that it is very hare
for any one consumer to be very
we'll informed on all issues that
concern him.
"Of course some women's, civi'
land educational organizations d'
deal with consumer problems" TIN
former Congresswoman went on
But the majority of them are no
organized the way some of tn
other lobbies are. They aren't a
successful at getting their view
points across"
This isn't true only in the fielt
of prices. in Mrs. Woodhouse'
opinion. MANY of the regula
executive agencies need to know
what the consumer is thinking
about" she said, II think it's ;
tow-way street. The consume
wants to present his point of view
and the agency needs to know it.
She hopes to see the idea o
consumer advisory committees ex
: pand to many other department
of Government.
The idea of looking at thing
from the consumers view poin
! is q very old one with Mrs. Wood
house, long pre-dating her servic
in Congress.

omist who has taught the sub
