Editorial

E IN. THE RIGHT DIRECTION
TOMORROW AFTERNOON at the field office Of
the Department of Agriculture and Labor, a most i'm
portant meeting is to be held. At that meeting the farm
ers of st. Croix will attempt to form a cooperative. The
word important is used here because few steps could
reach further into the future and assure for ST. Croix
and the Islands as a whole a better opportunity for eco
nomic development.
THE COOPERATIVE idea is not new. Throughout
the United States thousands of farmers have formed CO
operatives fol-. their mutual protection and benefit. But
it is a recognized fact that the ultimate in effective CO.
operative action among rural folks is reached in the
Scandinavian countries. Many Americans have gone
there to study and take a frst-hand look.
BUT WHAT OF us here in st. Croix? Plagued by a
constant shift in agricultural personnel and programs
we have had little opportunity to examine and come
face to face with a practical, effective and workable CO.
operative program. In years gone by the Farm Security
Administration attempted it, but that did not go very
far. Yet, with the impetus provided, and some leader
ship. that cooperative did build a plant and equipped it.
PERHAPS THE REAL reasons for failure of this
type of venture would provide a background against
which to work. Perhaps enough time by a trained per-
son, with active support and cooperation OF many agen-
cies and individuals could be OF immense help. Perhaps
a program of public enlightenment designednot only to
inform the public, but to win its support, would go Tar.
q BE unnecessary to go into the details Of
a farmers cooperative. The facts are well known, and Il
not then At least many have a good idea of what it is all
about. The real problem is getting the thing off on such
. sound footing that it will at least have a good chance
of succeeding,

Amendments TO the Compul.
sorry Automobile Liability
Insurance Act:
AS is well within the know
ledge of all members of the
Legislature, Act No. 478 Chill
No. 1861 Regular Session, 1859,
which became effective Janu-
airy /, 1860, known as the
Compulsory Automobile Lii
ability Insurance Act, has not
yet been enforced by the
Executive arm of the Govern
ment.
The law, as passed, con-
tanned many defects. Many
definitions were inadequate,
loopholes in the re-
quired coverage. Above all,
the Assigned Risk Plan was
found by the Administration
and the representatives Of all
insurance companies doing
business in the Virgin Islands
to be too rigid and unwork-
able. None of the interested
insurance companies would
write policies under it's pro-
visions.
The proposed new Act, Item
4 of your Agenda, was work
ed out during a three-day
convention of insurance repre-
sentatives, members of this
Government, and an insur-
ance consultant, brought in
by our Government to advise
in the matter. If enacted,
it would meet all the objec-
tons of the insurance COM
panies, the majority of which
are now prepared to write in
surance under it.
/ should point out that this
new bill, if enacted, would re-
peal Act No. 473 as Of Janu-

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Administration Price Record
BY SYLVIA PORTER

When President Eisenhower
came into Office at the start OF
1853 it cost you a little over
$1.13 to buy the goods and
services that 81 would have
bought in the "yardstick" base
period of 1947-49.
When Mr.. Eisenhower goes
out of Office at the end of 1860
it probably will cost you over
$1.27 to buy the same market
basket. The buying power OF
the dollar will be down about
IA cents.
In every year except one
since Mr.. EiSenhower's election
the level of consumer prices has
climbed. The one exception
was 1855, when the price index
recorded a retreat of a fraction
of a per cent.
Otherwise, throughout this
administration, the consumer
price index has gone up. This
index (which figures 1947-49 as
100, was at l13.5 at the end OF
1852 at 114.4 at the end OF
1858 at 114.8 in 1854

it won't be more.
Pleas by Government to in
duStry not to raise prices, and
to organized labor not to ask
for inf1ationary wage increases
haven't stopped the trend.
"Exhortation" has been an out

If ever a President tried to

crease it was Eisenhower be-
fore, during and at the end
of the steel strike. The result?
A fat wage package for the
steelworkers and a slippery
pledge by the steel companies
not to raise prices in "the i'm
mediate future" The timing of
the price increases appears the
only uncertainty; the increases
are on the horizon.
Two short but sharp recess

in Office haven't stopped the

After the recession of 1853

temporarily. In the recession
of 1957-58 they kept right on
going up.
The tight squeeze on credit
aimed at restraining borrowing
for speculative activities that
might spur price initiation
hasn't stopped the trend.
Increasing efficiency of pro-
duction - which theoretically
should give industry leeway to
make ample profits while still
raising wages and cutting
prices too-hasn't stopped the
