GIVE US "A BREAK
TO MANY IN st. Thomas, including the &

TO MANY IN St. Thomas, including the Governor and
his administration, the seemingly constant reference to the
totally secondary role played BY st. Croix may seem monoto-
nous. We assure one and all that such reference is equally
monotonous to those Of us on this side of the lake who not
only are forced to make such references, but must live with
the conditions and circumstances which give rise to o~utspoken
protests Of it
THROUGH THE years there have been 50 many in
stances and examples that a repetition here seems useless.
However, reference to one situation has to be made.
H ADMINISTRATION, for some unexplained rea-
son seems to bypass ST. Croix with respect to news relating
to the entire group Of Islands. Usually, by the time the press
releases reach this side, they have already been fully covered,
and in many instances even the follow-up has been published
and commented upon, q, as the situation demands, correc-
lions and explanations made.
WITH PLANE making many trips a day, and with
such trips being made in the very short time Of Is minutes,
not to mention Coverment-operated radio-telephone and al
So direct telephone connection, there is no excuse whatever
why readers in ST. Croix should not have full advantage Of
public information relating to the actions and functions of
our government. But when, through inadvertence OF negh-
gence Of some clerk releases are dropped in regular mail in
stead Of air mail, then the situation can no longer be over
looked as trivial
IN THE NAME Of all St. Croix we wonder if the Ad-
ministration would not 60 along with the idea Of seeing that
press releases reach us all by air, or some special arrange
ment for transmitta1 by radiostelephone or by ~telephoneP e
is easy. It is advisable. It would show one more desire on the
part Of the Administration to do one more little thing that
would help endear it to its already cooperative and hospitablea
populace.

Argentina

il you happen to be q dictator. The
new Argentine government OF Pro-
yisional President Eduardo Lonardi
was still finding out. two weeks
after the hasty departure Of Gen.
Juan Peron, just how many ways
there we're.
One way Is TO rig an election to
keep you in power after you get
in. This, the Argentine police SIS
serted, was what the Peronistas did
to insure victory ct the polls last
year. Another way Is to accept
gifts from reluctant donors. The
wealthy Dpdero family Of Buenos
Aires said It had been forced to give
Peron . million dollars worth Of real
estate which ended up in the late
Eva Peron's bulging portfolio Of
stocks. bonds. mortgages and deeds.
The new government, though
firmly enough ensconced TO make
public the former dictator's mortal
and venial sins. still had It's qualms
about his continued presence in
nearby Paraguay. The Lonardi
regime asked Paraguay to deport
Pefon, preferably to some place OUT
side the Western Hemisphere.

When Mr.. Eisenhower suffered
his heart attack, most Of the Nation
assumed he would not run for re-
election. the public started to size
up anew the possible Democratic
candidates. who had been conceded
no chance against Mr.. Eisenhower,
and the Republicans. who hitherto
had been completely oyershadowed
by the President.
Last week politics was operating
about as usual In the Democratic
camp and cropping out here and
there among Republicans. most Of
whom offcially stu hope Ike viii

The spotlight was on Adlai STE
yenson and New York's Gov.
\ Averell Hartman. A week ago Mr..
Hartman In effect announced Q
