HEYWOOD, HILL
GIVE REPORT ON
WASH. ACTIVITIES

Hon. Herbert Haywood and
and Valdemar Hill told an at
tentive audience on the Chris
tiansted Wharf last night of
their efforts in Washington to
secure some amendments to
the Revised Organic Act.
Mr.. Hill, the first speaker,
gave a detailed report of the
movements Of the delegation
which consisted of Haywood,
Roy P. Gordon and himself.
He told how they tried to
get a hearing but were turned
down and finally they ma
naged to get a few individual
Senators to listen to them per
sonally.
One of these, Congressman
Aspinall, proved to be very
helpful. When the matter of
amending the Bill to permit
voting for four instead Of 2
came up, Congressman Miller
The chairman, said, simply,
Those in favor say Aye;
lose against Nay" And
called out, The Nays have it"
It was then Senator Aspinall
called for a show of hands
which reversed DR.. Miller by
che vote ,7-6.
On two occasions, Congress
man Aspinall demanded a
show of hands.
Ii was revealed that Con
gresham Saylor in whom the.
people placed great faith be-
cause Of his friendliness when
he visited here, proved to be
antagonistic towards the Vir-
gin Islanders.
Hill paid great tribute to
the assistance given by Cyril
King, a young Crueian, who
works in the office Of Senator
