GOVERNORS RESOLUTION

GOVERNORS RESOLUTION
"A Bit Of Wishtd Thinkink)
GIVEN H opportunity, and if, for a brief nome
le world Of fantasy could come true, we would have
overnor make the following New Years resolution:
i To awaken to a realization that Virgin Islanders,
though few in number as compared with the rest
Of the world, still cherish the thought Of enjoying
4 place il the civic and political sun;
2 To give expression to this realization BY recog-
nizing their desire to have their sons and daughters
fill positions Of responsibility, thus creating an
atmosphere conducive to inspiration and ambition
for future generations.
8 To keep an open mind with respect to certain
knotty problems the solutions of which may not
fall within customary, well defined, and establish
ed patterns, but which, BY their very nature call
for resolutions in terms Of local conditions and atti-
tudes.
4 To resist The temptation Of the type Of appoint
ments which seem to give credence to the criticism
that faithful friendship was the prime factor in
considering the appointment, especially when it
may not at all be true.
s ! TO watch out for off-the-clff statements which
have the awful and most ingraiating habit Of com
ing home to roost (mendicants).
s ! To do justice to those truly kindly basic quail
ties of warmth and understanding, 50 that they may
not be misunderstood but accepted as really posi-
tive attitudes in leading the people Of the Virgin
Islands to even greater heights.
4 And finally, to work even harder to make 1855
an even better year than 1854
NOT ONLY IS this resolution made freely and witho
ercion, but in the true spirit Of the Season, and a ferve
% fulfil these desires.
