Filter-Tip on
Cigarettes Found
Useless by Experts

A consumer-research organiza-

of the filter-tip cigarettes it has
tested eliminated in any sense
any health hazard that might be

Irving Nicholson, head of the
special products division of Con-
sumers Union said average sized
filter-tip cigarettes give smokers
the same amount of nicotine and

cigarettes the same size. But he

Area: Causes HedvY
Dumoge in An Hour

The storm that was reported
yesterday struck New York's
metropolitan area between 2 and

Electrical wires were broken

cutting off over ten thousand
homes and business places.
In some counties winds up to

Subcommittee Tdkes
Favorable Action on
Conf. Powers Of Leg.

Governor Walter A. Gordon has
received word that as a result OF
his recommendation coupled with
the recommendation of the Office
of Territories, Department of the
Interior, the House Territories
Subcommittee has taken favor
able action on HR 1926. This bill
provides for legislative confirma-
ton of the Governors appointees
to "quasi-judiciaI" boards, autho-
rites and commissions.
1t was pointed out that the
meeting at which this action was
taken would probably be the last
meeting of the House Territories
Subcommittee before Congress
adjourns but that the favorable
action represented considerable
achievement"
Amendments to the original
bill, H. R. 1926, were adopted by
the Subcommittee which called
for more exact definition of the
term "quasi-judicial," and for
giving the Legislature the right
to determine by Legislative enact
ment specifically which boards,
authorities a n d commissions
would come under the quasi
judicial" definition. 1t was indi-

according to the Associated Negro
Press,
Following hearings in the Is
lands last December into the
operation of the local govern
ment, the Public Works and Re-
sources Subcommittee of t h e
House Committee on Government
Operations charged that the "con-
tinuing deficiencies in the Gov
eminent of the Virgin Islands"
were to be charged to Interior
Secretary Seaton and Governor
Gordon,
Subcommittee Report Approved
BY Full Committee
The subcommittee report was
approved by the full committee
of which Representative William
Dawson (Democrat) Of Illinois is
chairman. Not only were Secre-
tary Seaton and Governor Cor
don charged with deficient opera
ton of the government, but with
"delay, indecision and waste"
The full report of the subcom-
mittee went into considerable de-
tail on these charges. Represen-
tative Earl Chudoff (Democrat)
of Pennsylvania is chairman Of
the subcommittee.
Concluding it's report the sub
committee pointed out that it was
the duty of officials appointed by
the Federal Government to pro-
vide Leadership and the neces-
sary training to develop respon-
sible self-government in the
islands"
During the s~ubcommittee's Wis
it to the Islands many public
officials testified, including form
er Administrator Canegata, whose
dismissal followed closely his ap-
pearance before the committee.
