select a chief executive of their own choosing. People do not
want to be governed by outsiders. We appreciate well what
the Government of the United States has done and is doing
to help the welfare of the islands. But economic assistance
Lis not enough. We have reached political maturity and we
we should have the right, as citizens of the United States do,
to select the persons by whom we are to be governed The
Government Secretary should also be elected. He would oc-
jcupy a position largely in the nature of a lieutenant governor,
These are the more important provisions of concern to
all Of us. We are going to have to live with thezbil that you
will report out for many years to come. The last bill was
passed in 1886, II years ago. Since we are going to live with
the new bin as long, if not longer than the law now in effect,
we urge that you and your committee give serious considera-
ton to the proposals as outlined to you. These, in our opinion
could make the organic act, our constitution, a better one,
a more livable one. one that would be politically, economical
ly and socially sound, and one which would be highly pleas
ing to the people Of the Virgin Islands.
With such an act, tremendous progress is going to be
made in the islands-progress that / am sure the Congress
an dyou, personally, would take a great deal of pride in, be-
cause with a sound organic act the foundation for a sound
economy would have been soldily laid.
Thank you. God bless youmay he keep you well.
Senator, I would ike for you to know that the Legisla-
tive Assembly Of the Virgin Islands has engaged the services
of the firm of Crawford & Silverman who are to represent
the legislative assembly before the appropriate legislative
committees Of the Congress in connection with such work as
there might be for them to dosin helping to~get this bill
enacted into law. Thank you.

How can we, how can any one with certainty, determine
that the legislative business can be completed in 30, 60, or
more days with the tremendous economic activity that will
prevail as a result of the passage Of this act? The legislative
business will increase greatly with it goes the responsibility
for wise and wellconsidered legislation. All of this takes
time. 1t cannot be rushed, except at the expense of proper
and well-considered laws. We must therefore have the great
est flexibility and we recommend that the Congress impose
no limitation on the duration of the legislative sessions O. to
the per diem to be paid the legislators. The Constitution
of the United States imposes no such restriction on the Con-
gress. Why should the Congress impose it upon US?
We recommend that the will Of the legislative be final
We want and need representation in the Congress. Tax
alton without representation has long been condemned. We
believe it imperative to extend the privilege of representa-
ton to the citizens of the United States, residing in the Vir-
ginIslands.
In keeping with the policy Of this Government to extend
the greatest degree Of local autonomy possible to the people,
residing in our offshore territories, the Congress should this
year grant to the people Of the Virgin Islands the right to

STATEM E N 7
by Walter !. 4. Hodge. Chairman. Legislative Assembly
Of the Virgin Islands
concluded from yesterdays issue

Mr.. Chairman, the experiment in Nebraska has proven to
be successful. We should like to emulate and follow this pre-
cedent, and we therefore commend that the legislative
power of the government of the Virgin Islands be vested in
a single House to consist Of II menbers-6 from St. Crox,
5 from St. Thomas and / from st. John. In this manner we
feel that the people Of the Islands will be truly represented
and each segment of the population on each of the three is
lands would have proper and adequate representation. The
representatives should be elected at large on each of the Is
lands. We recommend that no limitation be placed on the
number Of days that the legislature remain in session. No
limitation has been placed on the duration of the legisltve
session in a majority Of the ST ates of the Union. We believe
this to be the better policy. The legislators are to be elected
blythe people and they are responsible to them each 2 years.
In our opinion the wiser course is to permit the legislature
to impose its own limitations. This applies as well to the per
diem to be paid to the legislators for the time they are in

and in poultry, stewing chickens
and fryers will be featured.
In addition to Potomac shad,
sea bass, porgieS. blues, mulletS
and white perch, frozen shrimp
is good buy. Stocks of this
popular seafood are high and
prices are geared accordingly.
Produce-wiSe, the headliners
for the week are potatoes, onions,
cabbage and celery. The spring
crop of celery has been unusually
high. Both Florida and Cali
fornia boosted their acreage this
past year and then the yield

The pie can be garnished with
whipped cream if you like. Di-

at least two days. We doubt

so good to eat.
Spoon Breed Mix
Every one we know loves spoon
bread but not every one will
take the time to make it. Now
with the new prepared mix on
the market, old-fashioned spoon
bread is child's play. The de-
velopment of this mix goes back
to the 18th century when Vir-
ginia colonists made corn pone
and corn meal muSh from IN
dian corn. The mush, forerun-
ner of spoon bread, was prima-
rily a dish for the field hands
who worked the plantations.
However. it was the mistress of
the kitchen, more than any one
elseG who was responsible for the
evolution of corn mush to rich
spoon bread that became the
pride of the manor house. She
played by ear" She would
have no part of measures and
timers. She poured on milk,
cream, butter and eggs with a
lavish hand and then added a
dash of her own magic. The
bread she turned out became the
favorite and fashionable fare IN
all the "gentlemen's houses"
Now with all the labor taken out
of the preparation. you can carry
on this Southern tradition and
have hot spoon bread at a drop
of the hat.
