~~O1 you" e'8a-
These letters, myfriends, give me great personal satisfaction.
For have worked as loyalty and as steadfastly, Ibelieve,
for the United Stateseand for the Virgin Islands, during the
past year of Republican office as / have during the previous
twenty years ofSDemocratic administrations.
Asa matter of fact, have never joined any political party.
President Truman appointed me as the first native governor
of the Virgin Islands because Of my career service here in
the Islands, and with full knowledge Of the fact that ] was
not a registered Democrat During all my years Of govern
ment service, | have studiously avoided both local as well
as national political affiliations because government service
has been for me. a dedication OF my life, rather than some
thing to be achieved by political means.
My Government Service
This is how it all started: / entered the service of the
Government of the Virgin Islands in September 1913 as a
clerk in the Sanitation Service. Since that time have served
successfully as Chief Clerk to all naval governors of the Vir-
gin Islands as; Assistant Government Secretary, as Assistant
Commissioner of Finance, as Commissioner Of Finance, as
Government Secretary, and as Governor-which office I en-
tered on March "a, 1850. During World War II. I served as
Coordinator Of Civil Defense. T have been Deputy Director
and later Director of Selective Service for the Virgin Islands.
Prior to becoming Governor, / had served as Acting Cover
nor Of the Virgin Islands for a considerable period of time
during the repeated absences of the governors and govern
ment secretaries.

On January %, 1853, just two days after the Inauguration
of the new President Of the United States, | addressed the
following letter to His Excellency, President Dwight D.
Eisenhower:
Il take this opportunity, Sir, to congratulate the peo-
pie of the United States on your Inauguration as our
President. I extend to you our very best wishes for
the greatest possible success. May God guard and
guide you, Mr.. President, in the difficult task OF
world leadership which you have assumed.
IN order to give you a free hand in the administra-
ton of the Government Of the Virgin Islands, | am
placing in your hands my resignation as Governor,
to become effective at your pleasure"
On February Is, 1854, over a year later, the President
replied to me as follows:
IN your Letter Of January %, 1858, sent to me by
Secretary Of the Interior Nc Kay, you refer to your
many years Of government service during your APP
pointment as Governor of the Virgin Islands, and
indicated that you would be agreeable to ~relinquish-
ing your office whenever ] found a suitable replace
ment.
"You have had an outstanding career in the service of
of the United States Government and have served
with distinction. In expressing my appreciation of
your excellent cooperation with this Administration,
l wish also to convey to you my very best wishes
for the future"
And Secretary Of the Interior Douglas Nc Kay wrote me
the following letter:
"The Presidents recent letter advising you of his APP
pointment of a new Governor of the Virgin Islands
commended you for the outstanding service you
have given your country. / wanted you to know that
I heartily subscribe to that expression of his senti-
ment.

Report on Africa
BY Oden Meeker. (Charles Scrtbner's Sons; S5J
Pev;ewed NV Miriam OffenbeYd

Nobody can be completely
objective about Africa but Mr..
Meeker makes a stab at it in
this melange of travel talks,
political observations and ra-
cial analysis.
In his year in Africa. Mr..
Meeker started at Dakar, Wis
tied the self-governing Gold
Coast. observed the Belgian
policy of paternalism in the
Congo, called on the pygmies,
talked to q lot of people in
South Africa and even enlisted
in the Home Guard against
the Mau Maus in F.enya. .
In other words, he made the
circuit, keeping a pen ready
to report the customs of the
countries and buttressing his
own observations with great
deal of reading. His overall
conclusion: That fear and ma
tionalism are common denomi-
nations but that the hopeful
portents for Africa are nu-
merouS.
In all, the book fills the bill
neither as a travel yarn alone
nor as q serious political study.
But 1t has the advantage -
through its sweep across the

Some artists and many pri-

the Penobscot and French

spent a third of our time in
Brooklin, and had a number
of interesting excursions with
Washington artist Ruth Per-
kins Stafford, who, with her
husband, Captain Laurance
Stafford, built a house in Blue
Hill four years ago. (Illus-
trated.) Mrs. Stafford has
spent summers in Blue, Hill
since her childhood, and has
painted many of it's facets.
She will have an exhibition in

Mrs. Stafford is interested
in the arts of rural America,
as exemplif1ed for example,
in the Rowantrees pottery,
handmade by local craftsmen
from clay and minerals found
in the vicinity of the village.
Visitors are welcome to watch
the potters shape the clay on
the wheel, to see the applica-
ton of glazes after the first
baking, and other steps in the
production of the simple, clas-
sic forms.

Art Book Review
Fletcher Martin


Foreword by William Saroyan.
Commentary by Barbara
Ebersole.
UNIVERSITY OF Florida Press;
So
If a foreigner unacquainted
with American art were to ask
me to name a few truly Ameri-
can contemporary artists.
Fletcher Martin would be high
on my list. Hence. it Is q
pleasure to commend this
admirable monograph.
Saroyan's reputation makes
his foreword the glittering
passementerie on the book. I
found it circumlocutory and
vague, with a sort of breath
less eagerness typical of his
writing, that enchants some
readers and irritateS others.
He makes such remarks as "A
work of art is the simplest
thing of all. 1t is simple be-
cause it exists"
There Were Hard Times
But Barbara Ebersole, her.
self a distinguished author
and teacher, gives the real pres
entation of Fletcher Martin.
She has an admirable style.
lucid, concrete and readable.
She provides something of
his background, something Of
his mental environment, some
thing of his personality and
philosophy" Martins youth
and early manhood were hard,
because of economic insecurity
and the depression. His
present eminence is the reward
of his own determination to
become an artist.
Mrs. Ehersole completes the
monograph with a particularly
good critique of Martins
creative work, which orients
the reader to a personal
evaluation Of his future paint
ing. What she says about a
group of artists now applies
to Martin: Their subject
matter continued American
while their scope of inter-
probation became aesthetically
universal" Fifty-one repro
auctions covering more than
20 years of Martins career,
illustrate her comments.
incidentally, Fletcher Martin
is an effective teacher as well
as a strong painter, and is
currently conducting a summer
workshop in painting, at the
University Of Minnesota.

And we in the United States
will have to learn to expect
such exploitation of natural
forces to which slogans like
massive retaliation are no
answer and nuclear intimida-
ton no solution"
The Solution
What is the solution then?
Mr.. Stevenson does not pre-
tend to have found any quick
or easy one. What he thinks we
should cultivate as reluctant
leader of the free world are
the qualities of "fortitude.
sobriety and PATIENCE and
this last comes particularly
hard. he knows. to q nation
which yesterday tanned a con-
tinent and tipped the scales
decisively in two world wars"
But we must, he insists, learn
to live with our problems and
we must not fall into a fatal
posture of rightly in dealing
with other nations.
In Europe, for instance, we
should not threaten the
French with dire punishment
if they don't stop acting like
Frenchmen forthwith" We
should rather encourage the
self reliance of individual
Western nations while at the
same time fostering their tor
toise-like progress to European
union. In Asia also, bulldozers
and bullying are not the an
swer. I'm an area that has
known SO much of colonialism
and condescension, compass
sion and humility will be our
greatest asset"
Three Worlds
Mr.. Stevenson's enlighten-
ing trip was not through one
world-but three: The mono
lithic and menacing Commu-
mist world; the allied world,
where people who have lived
for centuries in perpetual in
security don't understand
how there can be insecurity
and fear in America which has
never been bombed, let alone
occupied by an enemy; and
thirdly the uncemmitted world,
where Operation Bootstrap is
in full swing, with the end
rather than the means the
prime consideration.
In all three worlds, he says,
we need fortitude, sobriety and
patience. An excellent and SAL
utary report.
