STATION WIVI MOVES FORWARD
RADIO STATION WIVI has made a significant
move in increasing its power output to 1000 watts, and
therefore provide for its listeners wider and better trans
mission and reception. This is something for which the
entire Islands, and the group might well be proud and
appreciative.
THE INCIDENTAL difficulties aside, the very idea
Of improving that which already exists is a good sign,
and one which speaks we'll for the future. The times call
for the best. Once the problems are overcome then this
station will be in a position to serve, and serve in a man
ner comparable to other stations everywhere.
THIS IS THE day Of communication, rapid, tighten
ing communication, when almost within the hour any
event, anywhere, is broadcast to the rest Of the world.
People everywhere knew the very latest that was TAX
ing place in Paris, and could follow step by step the va
rious s~trategies and movements of the principals Even
the showing of films and tapes on television are but~a
few short hours away, as witnessed by the television
coverage of Princess Margaret's wedding in London.
The pictures were taken, flown to Canada by jet, and
from there telecast to the rest of the American con-
tinent.
0 US HERE, radio has become as much a part
OF our daily life as with people ~nywhere. We want to
know what is h happening, when, where, and how, and we
want to know it right away. Nothing, therefore, could
meet that thirst more completely than a radio station,
well run, and alert to the needs of the community. Such
Il station is our local station, WIN, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Raymond Higdon are due full credit.
THEN E IS the matter of keeping all the Is
lands in close touch on happenings. The elections will
be upon us before we know it, and here, again, radio can
play significant role. While it is true that people need
to see and hear candidates in person, yet the easiest way
is to present points of view via this mass media. And
when television comes the results will be even more fas-
cinating.
FINALLY, THERE IS the opportunity for business
, 1960-05-28

and the government to reach the people. Business must
sell, and to do so, it must tell people what it has to sell.
No medium has yet been devised by man which seems
more effective than radio. In reaching the people the
Government has a golden opportunity to present its
case, and thus ~enlighten the ~populace as to what is be
ing done, any programs that are being advanced, the
problems entailed, and most important of all, the CO.
operation and understanding which only an enlightened
citizenry can give.
OUR RADIO station needs our support, and every
one is willing to give it.

Horses and cattle roam the highways during daytime and al
most every night As many as four or five horses can be seen around
Orange Grove Hill in Christiansted. In some instances the animals
are tied to headbanks.
, 1960-05-28

Ill "a
go
most every night AS many as four or five horses can be seen around
Orange Grove Hill in Christansted. In some instances the animals
are tied to headbanks.
Owners of horsedrawn carts should be compelled to place refec-
tors on the back of the vehicle. Pedestrians on the highways should
lie urged by the Department of Public Safety to walk facing traffic,
specially at nights.
P. S. The antiquated Lefthand drive forces drivers to keep as
near to drains as possible, and thus persons on foot are hardly seen
until the car is but a few feet away from them
Sometime ago in St Thomas a young Policeman, in the perfor-
I ance of his duty, accidentally shot a Marine officer, who was said
to have been drunk and, among other things, attacked several wo-
rlen who were at the time il. a bathroom.
The officers appeal for assistance fell on deaf ears; he followed
the instructions given him in Police classes, after he was mauled by
the powerfully built officer and finally tossed outside, and used his
gun. It is said that even the first bullet failed to stop the Marines
advance. Unfortunately, the second shot proved fatal; the Policeman
placed under arrest.
Some years ago, another young officer, this time in Frederiksted,
was cornered by a Misunderstanding man; as a last resort and IN
desperation, he used his gun This officer was arrested and, ironi-
cally, was vigorously prosecuted by the government prosecutor.
In both instances the officers were reputable young men.
1t is noted too, that in both ST. Thomas and st. Croix, when
Police officers act against certain" individuals they run the risk of
not only being disciplined but are placed on the defensive by attor-
news for the defense.
One question uppermost in the minds Of the men is: what must
they do whenever they get into a tight spot, and their own lives are
endangered-depending upon whom the adversary is, of course.
Must they leave well enough alone or act and be arrested and pro-
secuted as criminals?
-
Not many weeks ago Stephen Bostc, youthful brilliant pianist
and talented musician of 81, Croix was presented, in concert in St.
Thomas. The audience consisted of but TEN persons, which includ-
ed his mother and sister. @
1t was heartwarming when a large audience made up of an ex-
celent croSSSecton, turned out to hear him just a few nights ago.
They cheered him with such enthusiasm; he had to beg the patrons
to desist SO that he could get on with the over thrty-fve odd num-
bers. Then he had to give three encoreA and was too exhausted for
a fourth.

Personal Income
Sets New Mark
BY the Associated Press

The wages and salaries of
Americans rose at a rate of
more than So billion a year
last month. But the Govern
ment took half that amount
away in higher social security
taxes.
The result, the Commerce
Department announced, was a
S1.2 billion increase in total
personal income, to a record
annual rate of $393.3 billion.
The gain reflected rising en-
ployment and longer working
hours in Steel-using industries
chiefly autos, machinery and
fabricated metals-whicb were
recovering from the 116-day
steel strike.
The increase in social Sc
curity taxes on January l from
2.5 to 3 per cent took a $50
million bite out of employees
pay checks. This is equivalent
to more than 81 billion a year.

Symphony Big Enterprise
Perhaps the biggest of such
nonproflt musical enterprises in
Washington is the National
Symphony itself. With a pay
roll of more than 100 persons,
it has a budget this season of
$829.000.
An organization Of this kind
poses problems of which few
businessmen have ever dreamed
except in nightmares. For it
is an enterprise in which earned
income covers only 81 per cent
of expenses.
1T takes a lot of work to get
the rest of that money to-
gether," Mr.. Dougherty ad-
mitted. But it's there"
Expenses, he says, arise from
salaries, rentals, travel and ar

orchestra's 88 contract musi-
clans earn an average of more
than S125 a week during the
season. october through April.

Needs Outside Help
But any similarity to most
other businesses ends there.
Like most symphony orches-

their earnings. the National
Symphony must rely on other
sources. too, for its revenue.
