UBLIc NOTICE

~ LIN F@ASAAS 49, N~SJ'
st. Croix, is about to launch a vigorous campaign dealing
violators of Section 81. of the Motor Vehcular Traffic Ordi-
nance, pertaining ito dimming of lights which reads as fol-
lows:
Every motor vehicle using the public highways shall,
from half hour after sunset to one half hour before sunrise,
display two lighted lamps on the front, and one on the rear
of the vehicle, which shall display a red light visible from
the rear. The rays Of the red lamp shall shine upon the IL
.cense plate carried on the rear of the vehicle, in such a man.
ner as to render numerals thereon visible for at least fifty
feet in the direction from which the vehicle is proceeding.
The lights Of the front lamps shall be visible at least two
hundred feet in the direction in which the vehicle is proceed
ing. When two motor vehicles, with their lights on, meet one
another, the drivers shall dim their lights or focus the light
to low beam until the vehicles have passed one another. Spot
lights shall not be used on moving vehicles for any other
purpose than locating the left side of the road not more than
locating the left side of the road not more than 30 feet immed-
lately ahead Of the motor vehicle 0 which attached.

to have the entire group suffer, rather than compromise.
Cases in point are indeed too numerous to recount.
YET WHEN all this is boiled down, it seems to us that
the Administration is the more culpable of the two because
it has the duty and responsibility Of leading, of setting the
pace, Of giving a sense Of direction, and of tying ends togeth-
er. 1t has official Washington behind, and its recommends
tons certainly receive more attention than those of the legis-
latue.
PERHAPS H trip to Ghana, with its new, fresh ap-
proach to national life, and the fact that from the Prime
Minister down is native, and has all the ambitious ideas for
progress, might leave an impression on the Governor the
result Of which would be a new approach to the job Of Gov
er.
PERHAPS H time is coming, and may not be too far
off, when an indictment such as the public read in the Wash
ington Post, that neither" side Governor nor legislature is
trying "oery hard to find a way, will be challenged and met
head-on, with a view to correcting things. Then, too, perhaps
the time will come when such a statement could not be made
because it would not be true.

TWO-WAY LEADERSHIP


ONE MORE observation from Chalmers Roberts article
on Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico Sets the
Pace for our Island Cousins " deserves comment. He writes,
under a section subthded Internal. S~quabbEng as follows:
"The current governor of the Virgns:is Walter
A.. Gordon, a California Negro attorney, former
assistant football coach at the University of Cali
fornia and a friend of Chief Justice Earl Warren.
He is currently in Africa with Vice President
Nixon. He is an intelligent but frustrated man,
locked in constant dispute with the legislature.
One has the impression that neither tries very
hard to find some sort of accommodation in the
islands interest. Emphasis added)
AGAIN THERE can be no denying that the reporter
put his finger on the spot when he said that neither tries oery
hard to find some sort of accommodation in the islands inter
est" Case after case points to the soundness of this impress
sion. Many Of our readers will recall that this paper last year
made a number of observations, with suggestions in an effort
to set things in their proper perspective, and we came to the
same conclusion.
THAT THE Governor is an intelligent man there is no
DENYING. but he allows himself to be drawn into too many
detailed and minute s~quabbles. Note, for example, the Presi-
dental veto on comfort stations, which, by the way, has re-
ceived more national comment than anything else in the
Gordon administration. Note also, the court battle which
could have been avoided; the endless delay in filling out his
cabinet and other positions; the recent unsavory and sum-
mary dismissals of Commissioner GaHber and Administrative
Assistant Canegata, and many, many others.
ASFOR THE legislature, it somehow succeeds in getting
itself wound up in a web of s~quabbles, most of which are
neither worth the time nor the energy, and indeed are a sorry
reflection on the dignity and importance OF the democratic
process. To carry out some pet spite the Senate would prefer
