Notice to T~ux-Exempt Individudls and
Businesses in the Virgin islands

The "tax exemption" laws of the Virgin Islands provide
that the Commissioner of Finance shall compute and deter
mine the specific amount of subsidy to which each person,
firm or corporation GRANTED a subsidy under the laws) may
be entitled, and he is authorized to make payment of said
subsidy to the individuals, firms or corporations entitled to
receive such payments, Except in the case. of taxpayers who
file an income tax return reporting the operation of a tax
exempt business, the Commissioner does not have sufficient
information to determine the amount Of subsidy that may
be due to a particular "tax-exempt" entity, however, unless
a claim is filed to report in detail the transaction or transac-
tons that qualify for the exemption.
1t is the opinion of this office that many people who may
be entitled to subsidies provided by the transcription laws
have not filed claims for payment. 1t is desirable, forseveral
reasons, that such claims be filed as soon as possible after
the end of the period covered by the claim.
Accordingly, it is requested that all unified claims for
subsidies provided by the tax-exemption laws be submitted
to this office no later than August 16, 1857.

Of Southern Democrats and conservative northern Republi-

was the combination which in the past killed alLattempts to
PASS a civil rights measure. Now it is different, and the
Southern Senator'S find themselves o~utnumbered.
ONLY TIME WILL tell. In the meantime everybody is
anxiously awaiting the outcome.

Editorial
CIVIL RIGHTS-NO. / ISSUE

II CIVIL RIGHTS bill before the Senate is 50 impor-
tant that it is the Number One news item throughout the
United States. And the reason is clear. 1t is the first time
since the Civil War that any civil rights measure ever got
this tar. Usually these measures are killed in committee, and
it they get out of committee then they die quickly before the
Senate in some p~rocedural technically.
LAST WEEK., AFTER many days of what Senator Rus
sci Of Georgia called educating" the public, the Senate final
~ voted to take up the measure. All the talk that went before
was merely in preparation for that. Now the measure is be-
fore the Senate and when and if a vote is taken it will be to
pass, amend or defeat the bill.
BUT MUCH WATER will flow under the bridge be-
tween this initial stage and the final vote. Most certainly a
fibuster will be put in full force. The Southern Senators,
led by Senator Russell. contend that the bill is discriminatory;
that it gives the President the power to call out Federal troops
to enforce the law, and that it enforceS in a subtle way the
school segregation ruling Of the Supreme Court,
ALREADY H PRESIDENT has agreed to one meas
ire of watering down, which is that the bill con6ne itself ex-
-clusively to civil rights with respect to voting. No doubt other
amendments will come and before it is all over the nation may
see such a watered down bill that it will bear Scant resem-
bEance to either the original idea or the original bill itself.
THIS WHOLE MATTER of civil rights is attracting at
tention because it puts the United States in a most vulnerable
position. AS the leader of the free world the United States
cannot afford to close its eyes, or give tacit sanction to the
type of injustice and wrong which Systematically keeps citi-
zens of this great nation from exercising their basic consti-
tutional rights. Unless it does something it will be unable to
point the finger at anyone else, or make any claim. in the
name of freedom or democracy.
IT IS FELT BY many that this is the time. The coalition

MILITARY ROAD WAS CHANGED

School ofhcals and board members yesterday settled
. somewhat complex problem by saying mo"

The groups point that the military Road

Delays were caused chiefly
by difficulties in completing

destinations, faulty formulas
applied to projecting these
traffic flows into future years
and the fact that traffic flow
computations turned out to be
more complicated than ex-
pected.
The executive committee Of

ing the transportation study,
reported delays of this kind
were not unusual.
