The Honorable
The President of the Legislature

St. Thomas, Virgin Islands
NV dear Mr.. President:
, 1958-06-19

Brugal & Company, Inc. has requested an extension
of a Lease Agreement entered into on May 81, 1855 be-
tween the Government of the Virgin Islands, acting
through former Governor A. a. Alexander, and Brugal &
Company, Inc, copy of which is enclosed.
believe that the proper procedure to be followed in
effecting this extension should be for the Legislature to
authorize the Governor to negotiate the terms of the
Lease Extension Agreement, and I enclose draft of law
which, if approved, would provide the necessary authori-
zation.
hope that it will be possible for the Legislature to
consider this recommendation in the short time remaining
in this Session so that the work already started by the
Lessee may be continued without delay.
n Sincerely yours,

My dear Mr.. President:

ivy dear NT. GTeSlQent:
Enclosed is Executive Order No. % 1857 transfer
ring the management and control Of the Alexander Hamii-
ton Airport, St. Croix, from the Department OF lnsular
Affairs to the Department of Public Works, effective July
/, 1857.
So that better administration of the airport facility
may be obtained, due to the fact that the Department Of
Public Works is better equipped from the standpoint OF ex-
perience and equipment to manage, control, operate and
maintain the Alexander Hamilton Airport, | urge the ap-
proval of this Executive Order.
Incidentally, the new Virgin Islands Code, which be-
comes effective September ], 1857, provides that airports
shall be under the jurisdiction of the Department of Pub
lie Works. The effect OF this Executive Order is therefore
to place the Alexander Hamilton Airport under the juris-
diction of the Department of Public Works from the
beginning Of the fiscal year, rather than to have to change
the jurisdiction in compliance with the Virgin Islands
Code on September /, 1857.
Sincerely yours,

marched and presented the petition should be COM

IT IS NOT TOO late to make some changes. Sena-
ter Ottley and Valdemar A. Hill, president Of the Unity
Partg who undoubtedly are the leaders and prime NOV
ers, should seek to change the petition to stand only on
sef-government They can always ask for a removal Of
the Governor, and they can do it either through a formal
petition directly to Interior, or to the President. But GER
tainly keep the two things separate and very much

Editorial
KEEP THE PETITION SEPARATE

WHEN UNITY Party led march'st Gov
eminent House to present a petition for self-government
for the Virgin Islands, two errors were committed
First, it failed to secure Island-wide support for the petit
ton. A move Of such far-reaching Importance should
have been given the widest possible publicity, and all
factions in the Islands should have taken part in the
preparation, formulation, and presentation of such a
plan.
WHENEVER N such a step as self-government
tor these Islands is to become a reality, it is most unlike
ly that any one political party or faction will be effective
enough to bring it about. But over and above all that, it
should have been in the contemplation of the prime
movers to seek the kind of support which would at once
remove such an effort from all faint of partisan politics.
Ehis is not to say that the move is note fine. one; that all
do not desire and would work for it.
THE SECOND ERROR which we think the Unity
Party and those closely allied with it made was to in
clude in the petition for selEgoVernment a request for
the removal of the Governor. The Unity Party has been
enc of the most o%utspoken critics of the Governor. Sena-
tor Earle Ottley and the Unity Party have gone on
record as wanting the removal of the Governor, and it
is by now common knowledge that whatever the Cover
nor does would very likely meet with opposition from
that quarter.
PEOPLE IN WASHINGTON and elsewhere on the
mainland know what the Unity Party thinks of Cover
nor Gordon. A request by this group that the Governor
be removed from office is therefore taken for granted.
With all this fully known, official Washington is likely
to view such a request as just one more political move
with little or no more meaning than the seeking of pub
Lefty and the making of political hay.
H PETITION FOR elf-government is one of the
finest steps that any group could have taken. Any effort
