SOMEBODY IN THE Government ought

SOMEBODY IN H Government ought to take time
out to tell the people what is being done. If these questions
seem foolish, then it is because the answers have never been
given. Certainly, the Governor and his staff, faced squarely
with it, would not dismiss the idea.
WHAT is SOUGHT is information, and what is being
done about a problem which is SO great, and to which the
people are entitled to share in both information and under

Section II. The Regulations prescribed by the
President of the United States for the levy, assessment,

Real Property Tax at the rate Of 1A% in the Munich
patty of ST. Thomas and st. John, Virgin Islands of the

Editorial -
LET THE PUBLIC KNO
THERE ARE CERTAIN steps that will have to be taken
if any economic relief is to become a reality in these Islands.
Postponing these painful steps is only prolonging and max
ing more acute the problem and its consequences.
TAKE H WATE situation. This is nothing new. It
has been with us for some time, yet the cure, if a cure it can
be called, is superficial Former Governor Alexander, before
he set foot on local soil, scoffed at the idea of importing water
Before he knew it, he, too, was busy importing water.
PERHAPS H TIME has come to take a many
pronged approach to the problem. The immediate steps will
certainly be the quick, stop-gap measures of importing water
But that will have to be done in enough quantity to make
the venture worthwhile For instance, it would seem like false
economy to import just one days needs at a time, SO that by
the time the round trip is made the situation is worse than
when it all began.
PERHAPS SIZE of catchment areas could be in
creased. Perhaps the cisterns and dams need to be bigger
50 as to store a greater volume. Perhaps there should be lett
cation to provide that property owners build bigger and bet
ter cisterns. Perhaps hotel owners in their initial building or
r~emodeing plans should be required to provide an adequate
water supply.
WHILE WE ARE on this matter of perhaps it might
be well to go a step further. What about local wells? what
about sea water for sewage disposal purposesP 1t is known
that sea water because Of its extremely corrosive properties
poses quite a problem for sanitary engineers. Nevertheless,
has anthing been done in this connecticut If it has, should
not everybody know about it?
FINALLY, LOOKING towards the future, what has the
soil conservation service done with respect to soil and water
conservation? On the basis of a years total rainfall, would our
position be better if the water that fell was conserved to a
greater degree? What about trees and the role they could
play for the futreP
