FAULTY GOVERNMENT
MANY WHO HAD bids and other bus

MANY WHO HAD bids and other business with the
local government, who find themselves in the unenviable
position of facing long delays in collecting wonder, and jus
tifably so, how the Government could find itself in such a
position. At least a government should be able to meet its
Obligations regardless of whether or not the head Of that gov
eminent is on the way out.
. BUT THE ALEXANDER administration seemed to
have been noted for getting itself in these unusual positions.
For some unexplained reason former Governor Alexander
seemed to have taken pride in violating all the rules N the
book, simple as well as complex. And on occasion ne even
spurned common courtesy
HOWEVER, THAT is all gone, except for the fact that
the people Of these Islands are getting to the point where
to be governors. That would be tragic for then the whole
process would seem to crumble.
WE LOO ORWARD to the Strengthening out Of all
these matters quickly. Public servants who must 60 without
salaries because of Shoddy methods in administration will
become digruntled and of necessity cease to give their best,
and that may be perfectly natural. Lkwise, others who give
services will also become skeptical and shy away from deal
ing with the government.
IS NEITHER the time nor the place to recount
the numerous instances, big and small, over which there is
so much dissatisfaction. Comment however, is deserving, It
for no other purpose than to point up the necessity to avoid
repetition.
THESE AND HAVE just been through IS months
Of seeming confusion and Illustration. 1t is as if the steps
taken in the name of progress had all turned around, and
now the new Governor must set himseslf to the task Of pick
ing up the pieces and making Of them some sort of coherent
pattern. One step in the right direction would be to SO dele
gate and work out plans that the orderly processes of govern
ment would continue without interruption even though the
