Il. APPEAL TO THE GOVERNOR
THE SITUATION in which these Islands find them
selves is.due to many factors, not all Of which can be laid at
the door-of the Senate. In addition, both the Governor and
the Department Of Interior have their duties and response
bilities, neither Of which can shed them BY pointing to either
the natives or the Senate.
THE GOVERNORSHP Of the Virgin Islands is a pc
cuHar one. The Governor is more like the mayor Of a city
of 10000, vet with the ceremonial duties of the head of a
a state. He must see that numerous details are attended to,
and must therefore delegate duties and responsibilities in a
manner that assures the fullest measure Of good government.
But THE GOVERNOR must do more. He must pro
vide the inspiration and the leadership, the foresight and
vision which awakens the desire on the part Of the populace
to. move forward. Moreover, he must furnish executive lead
ership to the entire governmental process, especially to legs-
lative-executive relations.
GOVERNOR GORDON, upon his arrival was given one
Of the most enthusiastic and tumultous receptions ever ac-
corded a Governor. But what after thatP There was a brief
honeymoon period, then a relapse into inaction and indeci-
sion which are bearing bitter fruits, and which will continue
to produce unsatisfactory results unless, and until, there is
recognition Of the fact that inspired leadership is one Of the

There must aso.b be an understanding which prevents paying
attention only to the letter, and not the spirit Of the law and
there must must also be evidence of stature in high places.

IT IS NEARLY a year now since the Governor took Of
flee, and yet he has no cabinet. When one party1s newsletter
accused Governor Gordon Of being a a~do-nothing governor"
the AVIS promptly went to the defense of the Governor. Yet,
there are still many positions untitled. To the contrary, the
Governor has insisted in nominating the very people whom
he knows will not be approyedby the Senate; yet when the
Senate acts, he appears disappointed and hurt. Here, then,
is a vexing situation which is largely Of the Governors own
making. It is certainly very democratic and very American,

Bobby Martin Fails
To Get Injunction
Against Monmouth

TRENTON, N. j.. June rs (P.-
Federal Judge Phillip Forman
yesterday refused to grant Bobby
Martin, Baltimore jockey, a tenn
porary injunction against deci-
sion by Monmouth Park race
track which barred him from
riding during its 5O-day meeting.
Martins attorney, Albert G.
Besser, refused to say whether
the ruling would be appealed.
Martin also has filed suit for a
permanent injunction, but no
date has been set for that case.
Martin was suspended by the
Maryland Racing Commission
for 10 years in 1851 on charges
that he bet on a different horse
than the one he was riding. The
suspension was lifted by Mary
land last year and Martin was
granted a license by the New
Jersey Racing Commission after
a public hearing this year.
Forman ruled that the mere
fact that Martin had Jockeys
license did not require the Mon
mouth track to let him ride.
