GOD SAVE THE QUEEN

@ COL SAVE LIE QUEEN s
TOMORROW ENGLAND will crown her second
Elizabeth. Not only the British Commonwealth, but all the
world viii be watching, and many representatives from the
free world will be taking part in the ancient and %colorful cee-
monies. For weeks the island Kingdom has been in a festive
mood. The streets are aglow with color and decorations, and
the people, ordinarily noted for their steady, solid character,
cannot restrain their excitement.
THE MAJOR broadcasting systems Of America have
sent reporters to cover the entire coronation, and the world
press is well represented For example, the Columbia Broad
casting system sent three commentators, including Lowell
Thomas and Edward R. Morrow. Of course, the British Broad
casting Company will have exclusive coverage Of the cere-
monies within Westminster Abbey.
THE CEREMONIES, the pageant, the color, tradition,
leading back many centuries, grand and spectacular as they
may be, are but a part Of what this coronation means. Il is
the way Of the British to hold on to what they believe is
now a part of their very being, as a nation.Yet to the free
domloying men everywhere, the coronation of a slight, little
woman, not vet so, has much more significance than outward
display could tell.
BEYOND THE ceremony and croVning is the spirit Of
atype Of freedom which has caught hold Of men everywhere.
Here IS a monarchy where the Royal Family is symbolic OF
unity throughout the nation. And its people, big and little,
know and appreciate, this fact. Here is a tradition that has
come to mean something difficult of expression, yet very real
and close to every Englshman.
I'll BRITISH form Of government with its Queen com
prises a combination Of what we in America know as Presi-
dent and Congress. The British people speak through their
elected representatives in Commons, while the Crown not
only serves to unite commonwealth, but is constantly stepping
forward as the official representative Of al the people IN the
constant stream Of matters which go beyond and above par
lamentary affairs. IN this respect there is q cOnstancy and
continuity which is not known il most other governments

Dear Nj. President:
At a meeting Of members

lands Congressional Council
on May 3, we took note Of an
item in the column by Leon
ard Lyons in the New York
Post Of April Is which stated
that you will probably appoint
a retired admiral as Governor
of the Virgin Islands.
It is our view that to APP
point anyone other than a ma
tive Virgin Islander would be
to take a step backwards halt
ing the march Of progress, and
setting the people Of the Vir-
gin Islands back at least Is
years.
1t is our further opinion that
such an appointment would

not be in accord with the
United Nations policy on
aon-self-governing Territories
which is to encourage even
tual self-government. Self
government is the goal Of the
people Of the Virgin Islands.
To deny them the opportunity
to develop in this direction is
to stif1e the yearnings and as

 Out popped his head. Out pop ped her tongue in childish deri- sion. That was a final indignity. The turtle aimed for her mouth and latched on with a vice-like tongue hold.
 Screaming, Mary Alice ran to her home, turtle dangling from her tongue. Her mother, Mrs. Martha Miller, and neighbors probed the terrapin's jaws with bobby pins until he turned loose.
 Heavens, what an experience" the mother told reporters. "When I saw her running towards us, thought she had tried to swallow his head"
