today Of Puerto Rico.

Is there any good reason
why we should not be given
that opportunity? # given
that opportunity and we fail,
Congress can always take that
authority away from US. We
know that as well as you do
and we know, therefore, that
we have to succeed; we must.
succeed, and we will.
Along with an elected Gov
ernor we also want represen-
tation at the Seat Of Govern
ment. It Is said that the
Department Of the Interior
represents our best interests.
Gentlemen, they are not, and
even II they did, 1t Is the De-
mocratic process Of people to
elect their own representa-

sitting here be happy to have
some bureau In Washington

to represent US, the people Of
the Virgin Islands In the Halls
Of Congress. There Is no rea-
son why Puerto Rico, Alaska,
and Hawaii should have that
right and that we should be
denied It. That we are fully
able to elect our own repre-
sentative Is evidenced by the
fact that q Virgin islander,
moving to the Mainland has
by that very move the right
to vote, not only for his repre-
sentative In Congress, but for

Stute1nent Of Senator
Hodge TO the Cong.
Sub Committee
Concluded from Wed.l

I remember well the argu-
ments in the Congress before
the passage Of the elected
Governor bill. We heard
through the halls Of Congress
and through departments IN
Washington that the people Of
Puerto Rico are lazy; that
they are incompetent; that
they are a Latin People; and
a dictatorship would take
over if given the right to elect
their own Governor; that. they
are an irresponsible people;
that most Of them are cotnrnu-
nists or nationalists or inde-
pentistas. / was in Washington
then and those were the argu-
ments that | hear all about.
Even worse was said Of Muncz
Marin. But, Gentlemen, what
has happened? The moment
that the bill was passed by
the Congress and the moment
that the responsibility was
theirs, the Puerto Ricans rose
to the occasion. they accepted
the responsibility, and we are
all very proud Of what Is taxi
ing place In Puerto Rico to-
day. They have performed adj
nirably well and ell Of the
fears expressed prior to the
passage Of the bill fell by the
wayside.
Now, as to the Virgin Is
lands. We hear almost all Of
the same fears expressed.
Whenever /. am in Washing.
ton / hear and | am tired O
hearing that Virgin Islanders
, 1956-12-14

are lazy; that they are men
|dicants; that they are incom-
petent; and that they are ir-
responsible. Gentlemen, these
are epitaths which ! hear from
Government Officials a n d
they are as false as they were
in Puerto Rico. Responsibility
% r responsibility, compe-
tence or incompetence cannot
be proven or disproyen until
one IS given the opportunity
of doing SO. Gentlemen. a
child Is irresponsible until he
is given some responsibility.
He can become a responsible
individual only when he Is
given some responsibility to
exercise. The child who Is CIV
en- no responsibility continues
to remain irresponsible. You
know that as well as / do, and
it is 50 with a people as well.
We are not an irresponsible
people but the only way we
can prove 1t, Is If you Would
give us some responsibility to
exercise. # given to us we will
prove ourselves as response
Bile as Puerto Ricans has done.
Gentlemen, If you would give
US the opportunity Of electing
our own Governor and give to
us the opportunity Of handling
Jour own affairs we have no
fear Of demonstrating to you
as members Of Congress that
we will handle II well. The
onus will be on Us. We will BE
on trial to prove ourselves, to

world who will be watching
US closely, that we can handle
our own affairs and / know
that Il you will give Us thai
