but eliminated.
And you can still switch the pitch for about
acceleration when the need demands.
But our Buick engineers didn't stop with putting
brand-new thrills in DynaAow. Not by jugful.
They came up with long list of sparkling
advances to make driving delight for travelling

Accordingly, President Truman,

Editorial
REPRESENTATION FOR ST. CROIX

THERE WAS a rumor to the effect that the New Or
ganic Act was to provide that the Government Secretary
reside in St. Croix, thus giving an official Of cabinet rank
vision was changed because it was thought that whoever
might become secretary may not like living in ST. Croix. Of
course, rumors have no place in things official, but this one
certainly brings to mind the plight in which St. Croix finds
itself.
H CAPITAL of any political subdivision is its center
of activity. II is from this center that orders, influence, pro-
grams, and the like, 90 out. But in order that the entity
function properly there must be proper representation. It
was no accident, for example, that both Rhode Island, the
smallest state, and New York, among the most heavily
populated states, have the same number of Senators.
WHAT ST. CROX wants, and demands, is its share Of
representation SO that it may make the most of its opportuni
ties. The greatest misunderstanding lies in the fact that too
many people think in terms of competition, and therefore
the strong desire to remain in front in the running. Nothing
could be more unrealistic. St. Croix has its own peculiar pro-
blems to solve, and they must be solved in terms OF both
the possibilities and the needs of this place. Competition is
therefore completely out of the picture. But there must be
proper and adequate representation or ST. Croix suffers UNI
necessarily.
SOME TIME G Mrs. Thayer Of Buffers Bay put it
neatly. She was more dramatic, and therefore pointed up the
need more strongly, but the matter is one about which much
has been written, and about which there is a strong aware
ness on the part of all Crucans.
WOULD BE weIf the Citizens Committee on Re
vision of the Organic Actlkeep its word and indeed include
provisions for resident lieutenant governor on ST. Croix.

Hungary Error

NEW YORK, Nov. 20 (P.-
The National Committee of the
American Communist Party says
I'VE do not seek to justify the
use of Soviet troops in Hungary's
internal crisis on November f."
A letter to party members from
the committee adds. however:
Neither do we join in the
condemnation of this action.
Were there no alternatives? Was
it a grim necessity? There are
no ready answers and we are
in no position to give final judy
lment ON the Soviet action"
The committees 2,50O-word
letter to members was made pub
lie here last night.
In a long discussion of events
in Hungary, the letter said:
1.-THE October "a decision OF
the Geroe government to call
upon Soviet troops stationed in
Hungary to put down the initial
popular demonstrations inflamed
the situation to a grave crisis.
This was a tragic error for
which the Soviet Union must
also take responsibility. It dis
closed the failure of a policy
which was not based securely
upon the national needs and sem
timents of the working class
and popular masses in Hungary.
THE great prestige that the
Soviet Union had won amongst
the Hungarian working class by
its role in decorating the coun-
try from the Nazis and the hated
Horthy regime was thereby Sc
riously damaged.
