FOR TOWN COUNCILS
THE PROPOSAL THAT there be tow

Fl PROPOSAL THAT there be town councils to
take over the local functions of the principal towns IN
these Islands is an excellent one. While it IS true that
our towns are small, there is nevertheless no question as
to the necessity and ~propriety Of appropriate governing
bodies for these towns. In fact, the proposal, according
to DR.. Aubrey Anduze, has received the blessing OF the
Interior Department.
IT IS DIFFICULT to visualize a town without a
governing body. And while it is true that the govern
ment is centered in one spot, and in no case more than
40 miles from that central spot, there is nevertheless a
considerable void in this sort of remote control.
EACH TOWN, REGARDLESS of size, has its own
peculiar ~problems-problems which are not exactly like
those of the neighboring towns. Each town has its own
personality, and should handle these problems as it sees
and knows them best, and finally, each town has the
right, even at this primary step in the democratic pro-
cess to have a close and direct voice in the management
of it's own affairs.
NOR SHOULD SUCH a system be expensive or diff
fcult. To the contrary it will case the situation and
make for more efficient government. Each town has its
businesses, is streets, its schools, and the like, and who
could know better about these than the people who live
close to them daily?
FOR THE TOWN councils, elections could be held
at the same time as other elections, with a slate for that
particular purpose. Nor should finances be a problem.
Any town should be able to carry its own government,
and by the very nature Of its business should be able to
meet, for example, once a month, and have no more than
the few necessary additions to its working staff.
THE IDEA IS AN excellent one and everyone is
hoping that when the New Organic Act is changed the
addition Of town councils will be among those changes.

believed it was heading for fiat.
The main artery leading to our
house from downtown is closed.
We don't mind the inconvenience,
just pleased to have the dirt road
covered with cement. For the past
three weeks we have had to travel
by a back, dirt road. The c0ndi-
tion of this road is indescribable.
Saturday and Sunday we had tor
rents of rain, which really made it
next to impossible, but since it's
the only way we can use to go
north, east, south or west, we all
in this neighborhood, must sink
up to our hub caps if necessary,
but we must use this lousy road.
Saturday evening we were half
way between our house and no
where on this road when Hayes
said he believed his gas tank was
near empty. AT the next breath
the car this carl coughed and |
yelled, ''It can't stop here. We're
no where" That ratter car, just
to prove its point, stop instantly.
There we were in the rain, deep
in clay ruts, it was black at pitch,
no house in sight and the only
living creatures near by were
thousands of bull frogs cayorting
in the wet.

stop to pick up someone on that
lonely back road, but some kind
man and his wife did for us. They
had their car doors locked though

Babson Park, Mass, May 8. 1t is
not my custom to discuss strikes
Now, however, Mr. Reuther's ask
ing that the negotiations be post
poned until the tooling time comes
truly arouses ones anger. This is
"a Soviet-type threat. Everyone
should rise up against it.
What Labor Seeks
In this year of poor sales and
profits in the auto industry, the
UAW is boldly asking for general
wage increase equivalent to about
lie an hour. 1t. also seeks con-
siderable broadening of the present
pension plan, expanded hospitali-
zation and insurance benefits, as
wei as more money for skilled work.
ers.
In addition to all these requests,
the Union is demanding that the
Big Three-General Motors, Ford,
and Chrysler-adopt new type of
proft-sharing plan. This seems to
me a very poor time to make such
an expensive and far-reaching de-
mand, and 1 predict that the, auto
makers will refuse to go along with
it.
Likelihood OF A Strike
Many observers believe that the
current negotiations will result in
a stalemate and finally in a strike.
They contend that automobile in
dustry managenIents are in bet
ter position to stand firm against
the more unreasonable demands of
labor than they have been in re-
cent years. I do not share this
view about strike of any length,
and here is why:

been hard hit because so many
members are working only part
time or are not working at all be-
