Review And
Suggest Action

Delegates to the State ADJ Ad-
visory Committee from Phoenix
and Tucson met in Coolidge last
Sunday. An election of new Off
GERS is planned for November.
Sam r. Kaufman'S resignation as
state chairman was accepted with
regret. He remains member of
the committee.
Subjects discussed included re-
affirmation of the principle that
ADJ work in close cooperation
with other Jewish community re-
lationS committees; that local
groups join with non-Jewish ones
to mobilize sentiment for the
Watkins refugee bill and to sup
port revision of the McCarran
Act. The committee will offer a
scholarship to an inter-cultural
workshop during the summer of
1854 to some teacher in the state.
In this connection, Phoenix
Bnai Birth Women recommend
ed a human relations teachers
institute on a Saturday during the
school year, referring to its sue
cess in Phoenix. Tucson reported
on it's newly developed interfaith
radio and TV program, express
ing the hope that similar pro-
grams would be developed on a
statewide basis.
An award was made to Joe
Stocker of Phoenix for his work
during the last session of the
state legislature, to secure pas
sage of the two pieces of civil
rights legislation, having to do
with public accommodation and
public employment.
The Advisory Committee will
work for a change in the absentee
voting law to enable persons pre-
vented from voting on a given day
because of religious scruples, to
vote in advance by means of an
absentee ballot.
Burton LeWkoWitz of Phoenix,
vice-chrm., conducted the meeting
and William Gordon served as
secretary.

SOLID NOTES
by: Hap johnson

What has happened to the big
name dance bands like those of
the Dorsey's, Harry James, the
late, great Glenn Miller an d
Woody Herman? Outside of
very few name bands that stay
alive as recording units or in
feature spot with some big TV
show they seem to have gone the
way of the nickel stogie and the
dodo bird. The truth is that in
flation, a heavy accent on the vo-
cal side of the musical picture
and a penchant for worshipping
the "gimmick" instead of the
danceable qualities of music, has
taken its toll.
It's true that Les Brown holds
on in good style and there is a
faint rumble to the effect that
the Dorsey brothers are making
motions in the direction of reor-
ganizing a dance band, but the
hopes aren't too bright for the
one night standerS.
However, you lovers of music,
have nothing to worry about be-
cause music has been an integral
part of our lives ever since early
man discovered that his vocal
chords were good for something
besides clearing his throat. You
will love listening to our new al
buns just received. And we do
have a very fine special on table
model radios.
NOW is the time to drop in at
the BROADWAY MUSIC SHOP,
5040 E. Broadway and pick up a
bargain in good listening.-Adv.

negligence on the part of MI.
Boreham, the Fire Chief, or of any
of his subordinates in connection
with the handling of this fire.
Furthermore, I personally OBJ
serve d how strenuously MI.
Boreham and his subordinates
worked under difficult and trying
conditions. Furthermore, ! think
it was a near miracle that the fire
was confined to the Castle prem
ises and did not spread to other
nearby buildings. Furthermore,
the performance of any unit cam
not be measured by its results at
one incident-no matter how
serious-when the record shows
that we have had few disastrous
fires here over a perior of many
years. In practically all cases we
have been able to confne them to
a very limited area. Furthermore,
even in the United States there
are disastrous fires which some
times destroy blocks of buildings
in the largest cities in spite of
adequate fre-fighting personnel,
the latest in equipment, and gen
erous water supplies.
Furthermore, there was no loss
of life at this fire. My conclusion
then, for which / am responsible
to me conscience and to my God,
was that / would not be warrant
ed in disciplining Mr.. Boreham
for the loss Of Blackboard Castle
in a terrible fire on an unusually
windy night and at an hour when
full salt water pressure is not
normally available at an eleva-
ton of 205 feet above sea level.
Having come to this conclusion,
I must now ask myself this ques-
ton. Just what is it that Mr.. Jack
son would have wished me to do
other than what / had already
done in connection with our Fire
Department? Certainly, Mr.. Jack
son would not have wanted me
to dismiss Mr.. Boreham, who is
his personal friend and to whom
Mr.. Jackson has said on more
than ore occasion since the fire
that his criticisms addressed 70 me
were in no way intended to hurt

Action to improve our fire service
In August 1851, I had recon-
mended to the local Municipal
Council the draft of a bill to pro-
vide for the efficient organization
of a paid and volunteer fire force.
I had written to the Council sew
eral times during the past months
urging the enactment of such a
law. I am not blaming the Legis-
lature. / am passing no blame on
anyone. Disastrous fires In these
Islands have been SO few and far
between that one can understand
the hesitation about putting a
considerable amount from our
meagre municipal finances into
development of a full-time fire.
fighting force. Records indicate
that fire insurance rates here are
reasonable and that the fire loss
ratio is low. Here are some
figures: During the calendar year
1850 total insurance losses paid IN
st. Thomas were less than $4,000,
in 1851 they were less than $1,000.
Immediately after the Black
beard Castle fire, 1. again called
the Councils attention to the
need for adopting this legislation.
Failing such immediate action, /
personally organized a temporary
volunteer fire service, with three
fire teams of ten men each, under
competent leaders, and I assigned
to each team the exclusive re-
sponsibility of manning one fire
engine as well as the responsible
iity of continuous examination of
the hydrants and other public
water supplies. Thus, / have
moved to remedy as quickly as is
humanity possible some of the per-
sonnet and organizational Difficult
ties which we encountered at the
Blackboard fire. Can Mr.. Jackson
or anyone else %truthfully say that
I have taken no action to improve
the fre-fighting situation?
My conclusion as TO
disciplinary action
AS a result of all my extensive
investigations, l came to the con
clusion that there was no gross

clothing similar to the clothing
that the suspect was reported to
be wearing was found at the
home of the suspect"
Near midnight that night Ode
cember 6th), Mr.. Jackson called
me on the telephone and engaged
me in conversation for about half
an hour, pointing out that the Po-
lice Department had released the
individual at seven o'clock that
night and had therefore dropped
the case. ! tried to explain to MI.
Jackson that presumably t h e
questioning had been completed
for that day and that it might
have been unwarranted to hold
the person longer. Long after mid
night Mr. Jackson again called me
over the telephone, this time with
mounting fury, demanding an ex-
PLANTATION from me as to why the
person had been released by the
Police. From the background
noises / judged there were many
persons present. / was in bed at
the time, of course. He again kept
me in heated conversation for at
least another half hour not-let
me make it c1ear-in any manner
of complaint regarding the con-
trolling Of the fire, but only
AGAINST the alleged failure of the
Police Department to hold the
person whom he believed was re-
sponsible for the alleged burglary
and arson. He even threatened to
bring in a crew of private detec-
tives and to take over law
enforcement.
On Sunday morning, December
7th, at 8 o'clock, I called in the
District Attorney, the Assistant
District Attorney, and the Direc-
tor of Police; and I requested the
District Attorney to take over the
investigation as to the cause Of
the fire, and to use every possible
effort and means to determine
whether burglary andIor arson
had been committed and, if so, to
bring the perpetrator of perpetra-
tors to justice.
The District Attorneys investi-
cation, conducted by Assistant
District Attorney Croxton Will
liams, has been in progress since
that time, and Mr.. Jackson has
been kent informed from time to
time of the progress of the inves-
tigation. | have before me the first
report of the Assistant District
Attorney and the Director of Po-
lice, together with a record of
hearing conducted in the Office of
the Director Of Police.
