more than Is million years.
Amino acids are basic building

Life molecules, DR.. Abelson
said, usually disintegrate quickly
after the death of an organism
and are returned to the great
pool from which new life comes.
This disintegration does not

any increase for Vicorp work
ers. He said that some Sena-
tors in st. Croix had told him
that the So cents an hour
paid to V. /. government labor
ers was only a temporary
measure, and that it would
soon be reduced. He did not
say who those Senators were,
but we know them.
On February "a, DR.. Bart
lett wrote me as follows:
Dear MI. Ottley:
when / was in st. Thomas
about two weeks ago Mr.. Elliott
Gray, manager of the Develop
ment, Department, showed me a
copy of your letter to Governor
Gordon dated February |, 1856,
which YOU raised certain queS-
tons regarding Vicorp personnel
employed by the Power and De
ve1opment Departments.
Il was considerably disturbed
over a statement in your letter
to Governor Gordon which was
quoted from my letter to Mr.. Ell
lott Gray. / questioned Mr.. Gray
as to under what authority he
had turned over official federal
government correspondence to
you, inasmuch as I consider my
letter to be an official communi-
cation between myself and one of
my managers, and under no cir
cumstances should it have been
used otherwise. Naturally, Mr.
Gray was upset over my criticism
of his action and advised me, and
/ believe truthfully, that he never
did turn over such a letter to
you. He states that the letter must
have been removed from the bull
letin board in his office.
Il would appreciate a full ex-
PLANTATION from you as to how you
came into possession of a copy OF
this letter, and as to whether or
not you removed it from the bull
letin board at the Development

RADIO ADDRESS
Continued from Thursday

/ was disappointed that bust
ness in connection with the
legislature prevented me
from being on hand to hear
the testimony Of DR.. Bartlett,
president Of the Virgin Is
lands Corporation, which, !
understand, was a vicious and
shocking attack on the people
of st. Croix and the Virgin
Islands. In his attempt to JUS
tify low wages, he described
workers here as absolutely in
efficient, unproductive, unre-
liable and hopeless. He said
fatty that even if the commit
tee sets higher wages the Vir-
gin Islands Corporation will
will not follow them.
/ was not surprised at DR..
Bart1ett's attitude. I had a
long, interesting exchange Of
letters with him, only a few
weeks ago. First, ! wrote to
Governor Gordon urging that
when the Board of Directors
Of the Virgin Islands Islands
Corporation met that he at
tempt to obtain an increase
in salaries for VICORP work
ers. In my Letter to the Cover

pin Islands government en-
ployees were receiving higher
salaries than vicorp workers

office, or if you did not remove
it / would like to know how you
obtained a copy of the letter"
That is the end Of DR.. Bart
let's letter. l replied to him as
follows:
Dear DR.. Bartlett:
I take exception to your let
ter Of February "a in which
you inquire as to whether or
not I had removed a letter
written by you to Mr.. Gray
from the bulletin board of
his office at the Development
Dept. Certainly, you should
not judge the conduct of 9TH
er persons by that of your
own.
The important issue raised
by my letter is that employees
of the Virgin Islands Corpora
ton are being m
against by being paid far less
in salaries than other federal
or insular employees doing
the same work. l would be
glad if you would address your
self to this matter and see to
that the inequities are elimi-
mated, instead of trying to
question the honesty and in
tegrity Of persons whose re-
putations are much higher
than yours.
Mr.. Bartlett then reeplied

Watchfulness Urged
The Japanese American Citizens
League has been alert and active in
this field of civic equality. This
group had much to do with the
Supreme Courts outlawing of the
Alien Land Law, which for a gen.
Grafton prevented Orientals from
even occupying farm land in Cali
fornia.
The need for close watchfulness
over the city's non discrimination
policy was stressed in the recent
report of Eugene Riordan, agency
director, concerning two apartment
house operators in the first west
ern addition redevelopment project
area. They refused to sign an
agreement with the agency because
they wished to be free to discrimi-
nate racially in their rentals.
A suggestion to gerrymander
these two apartment buildings out
of the agency area was reported
under construction. This in effect
would give the landlords the bene-

who number approximately 2,100,-

In November, 1852, some $685.
900 civilians were of voting age.
Thus the increase in the past four
years was about 100000.
Women Of voting age, estimated
at 53,652,OOO for 1856, will outnum-

The Bureau pointed out that

confused on the school aid issue"
The Washington Post referred to
Mr.. Eisenhower's statement at
Lexington, Kentucky, in which he
said Governor Adlai Stevenson was
confused" on the issue.
"The Presidents formula for aid
to education embraced a require
ment that grants be made to states
on basis of need and on the
condition of state as we'll as Fed
eral grants to local groups" the
Post said. This formula was Of
fered by Republican, Representa-
tive Mcconnell as an amendment
to the Kelley (Democratic) bill
which had been approved by the
Committee on Education and Labor.
1.-THE Republican record in re-
gard to the Kelley Bill was Ger
tainly the decisive test of the party
on aid to education-and it was
shameful record" The Washington
Post said.
The Post editorial says that it
was to the Kelley bill that the
Powell amendment was attached,
"a rider which doomed the bill in
the Seante".
when the bill itself came to
vote with the Powell rider tackled
on to it, however, only Is Repub-
licans as compared with 119 Demo-
Gratis supported it, while 119 Re-
publicans along with 1O5 Demo-
Gratis opposed it. The Presidents
failure to take any note of this
record was far from candid" The

Coincidence Seen
Mayor Christopher's announce
ment was something of a coinci-
dence in that between the time Of
Mr.. Beavers selection and formal
appointment, the Council for Civic
Unity here in San Francisco made
public a letter to Major Christie
pher expressing concern that he
had not appointed Negro to the
local Redevelopment Agency.
The council recognizes that no
one should be appointed to a public
agency because he is a member of
any particular racial group, and
that in any event it would be i'm
possible to afford representation
on the Redevelopment Agency to
each of the groups living, in the
city's Western Addition.
The Council for Civic Unity has
never advocated appointing a Ne
gro resident, or any other person,

nual international jazz critics poll.
Letters to the editor from all
over the nation denounced Kenton
with charges that "Jim Grow sits
on his bandstand."
Kenton didn't do too well in the
poll. He got one vote. From his
point Of view, too many Negro
musicians won first places.
Downbeat said Kenton wired it
the following program on Sept. 5:
"Just saw your fourth jazz crit
les poll. It's obvious that there is
a new majority group "White Jazz
Musicians: The only thing | gained
from studying the opinions OF your
literary geniuses of jazz is COM
plete and total disgust"
In an open letter to Kenton,
Feather said the telegram raised
doubt on your racial views"
Feather said his own doubts were
strengthened by recollections on
Kenton's failure to hire Negro side
men over the years, his failure to
use Negro musicians in special jazz
series and Kenton's statement on
returning from Europe.
At that time Kenton said: "We
roved to Europeans that white
,,.,sicians can play jazz, too"
Clearly this wire," Feather said,
expressed long-bothered feelings,
now uncorked and spilled in a
moment of rare candor."
"Say it isn't SO, Stan," Feather
concluded.

because of his race or ancestry. At
the same time, the council be-
lieves that the work of the Re-
development Agency. has a power
full bearing on the housing and
business opportunities of many
thousands Of nonwhite San Fran
ciscans.
"It is we'll known that Negro,
Oriental, and other non-white citi-
zens face special difficulties in the
housing Market" Edward Howden
pointed out to Mayor Christopher,
difficulties over and above those
which confront white families who
are to be displaced by redevelop-
ment or who will seek housing in
G. future development"
'NOnwhite Clearance
The executive director of San
Franchises Council for Civic Unity
points out that, across the nation,
redevelopment programs have been
regarded with "grave apprehen-
sion" by nonwhite minority groups
and those who are promoting
equality of opportunity.
In short, they have felt that slum
clearance might tend to become
nonwhite clearance, with "little or
no prospect" that nonwhite fami-
lies would ever be able to enjoy the
benefits of the new housing.
In San Francisco, people admit,
such fears have been at a mini
mum, thanks largely to such effec-
tive and well-liked spokesman for
minority groups as Edward How
denis Council, the Urban League
and the N ACP's Jefferson
Beaver.

has had lot to do with this be-
ginning when it unanimously
