PROPERTY OWNERS URGED TO FOLLOW NEW TAX LEGISLATION

All owners, buyers and lien holders of property are urged by William Wakeland, local tax as- sesor, to take advantage of re cent Territorial legislation re garding taxes.
 According to Wakeland the law now states that taxes will be assessed to the owner of record, which is the party holding the last recorded deed. It further de clares that the owner of record may direct the assessor to send the tax bill to another person. In other words, Wakeland said, the buyer under contract can re- ceive the tax bills, but the real owners name must appear on the tax roll also. A mortgage holder may receive the tax bills If the owner so specifics.
 In connection with this the as sessor would like to remind own CTS that an unrecorded deed can be rendered worthless simply by the recording of another deed to the same property. Many people apparently do not realize this, he said. A deed must be record

Here is another strange attitude:
You watch a child grow up, and sometimes even aid in their
education. They go away to college and get some degrees On their
return they call you, who in many instances, could be their grand
parents, by your first names. Strange, isn't it?

Fiaf.erY brings friends truth enemies

The Virgin Islands are probably getting up into 2 lu-dO

some things For example: Not long ago we had a "nold-ups IN 81
Thomas. OF course, the way it was carried out would make the
average mainland kid laugh; it was almost q joke. To US, OF course
history was made-we had a hold-up-for the first time.
Tben. lust a few days ago there was an attempt to rob the bank
Il Frederksted, along with three other establishments. Thanks to
ri alert Policeman with a good memory, the culprits were caught,
without difficulty.
Words came over the anwaves yesterday that Fred Wallet had
handed in his resignation. It will probably be accepted, The reason
IS obvious.
Several persons are very anxious to sell the telephone system
to private interests suggested by the Department of the Interior.
MI. Valet, one of the most efficient department head in the Islands
TODAY. is evidently in the way. So the first move is to get rid Of him.
Mr.. Wallet claims that if the System is set up as an Authority
it can pay for Itself. The very fact that private interests want it, is
an indication that IT CAN BE MADE TO PAY IT'S WAY.
If an Authority is set up, then business methods can be used
without government red tape. In other words: Under the present sys-
TEN although the monthly fees have been increased, the department
head can only hire persons recommended by the Government, and
nav what the government says. Thus, as we understand it. if you get
100 dollars in increased fees and the system is forced to pay 500
more in salaries; there will always be a deficit
Many years ago when members of the Municipal Council en-
gaged in a selling spree of Government-owned lands. Many, includ-
ing the Avis Editor, warned against selling out all the beaches. The
warnings were ignored. Today almost every beach on the island
is owned by private persons except, of course, Cramers Park, the
Lagoon and Buck Islands.
incidentally, to prevent the sale of Buck Island it was declared
a Public Park. But word is being passed around that it might be
sold!
