VALUE OF CRITICISM

Almost everybody agrees, in principle.
with the notion that constructive criticism
is wholesome thing. Almost everybody
agrees, that is, until the criticism points at
something close to home.
This was illustrated not long ago when
Theodore c. Sorenson, special counsel to
President Kennedy, took a few potshotS at
his home state of Nebraska. Representing
the President at memorial services honor
ing the late Senator George w. Norris, Sor-
enson took occasion to remark that Nebras-
ka had slipped since Norris day. 1t has be-
come, in his words, IAN educationaily de-
pressed area /. left behind, outmoded,
place to leave or a place to die
Strong stuff. 1t is easy to see why many
Nebraskans did not like it. But it does not
follow that Sorenson's remarks were i'm
proper. No person can ever be expected to
improve of he never hears criticisms. The
same goes for city or state.
An outsiders candid assertion that the
litter on towns main street suggests city
slum will probably arouse Indignation. If it
also produces reform of Objectionable
practices, it has done good.
Conceivaby Nebraska is stodgy, not in
terested in new ideas. If so, it will not be
apt to change until few more Sorensons
have had their say on the matter.

IN TUNE WITH THE TIMES
The medical profession has launched a
new project 1t is the development of a po-
litical action committee for physicians to aid
them in organizing for more effective par
'ticipation in political and government af-
fairs.
The new committee, known as the Am
ercan Political Action Committee, will be
headed by former president of the Amer
lean Medical Association. Its primary job
will be of an educational nature-the assist
ance and encouragement of physicians at
the state and local levels in developing year
round political action programs. Member
ship will be open to all doctors of medicine
licensed to practice in this country, their
spouses and adult members of their famil-
les.
This project is definitely in tune with an
important need of these times. Business and
professional leaders have for several years
urged citizens to take a far greater active
interest in political affairs, particularly at
the grass-roots level. One big reason for this
is to establish a balance, or counter force,
against the we'll organized and effective eff
forts of such organizations as the ALL
CLOS Political Action Committee.
If business and professional people don't
work, and work hard, on behalf of what they
believe in, they'll have only themselves to
blame if the other side wins the political
battles

Milford chronicle., 1961-10-06

The annual report of J. Edgar Hoover,
sent to the country's editors every year,
shows that crime in the United States is
continuing to increase at a disturbing rate.
In 1860, FOR example, serious crime
was committed every fifteen seconds in the
United States, A murder, forcible rape or
assault to kill was committed every three
minutes.
This has become national disgrace and
the crime rate in the United States no long
er compares favorable with that of the lead
ing countries of the world. We must look
into our own conscience to see what is the
trouble.
The fact is that the problem is one for
all Americans and all Americans should
turn their attention to it. The parents Of
America must face the fact that the juve-
nile delinquency of recent years is the re-
sponsibility of lack of discipline and train
ing in the home. American fathers are
more to blame in this regard than mothers
for it is the father, in the last analysis,
who should exert final and firm authority
with the children
In that field, American fathers are the
worlds worst. They too often abdicate their
authority to the already-busy wife, who
must run the house, supervise the meals and
watch over everyones well being. AS re-
suit, we have too many deinquents who
might have been well-traned and wel-be-
haved youngsters.
The latest FBI annual report shows that
the trend in this country to more and more
crime is continuing and that things are get
ting worSe-not better. 1t may be cOnven-
lent to blame the churches and schools but
the major responsibility is to be found in
the home.

YOU CAN PASS A LAW-BUT,

On September 3-the new and expanded
federal Wage Hour Law went into effect.
Many millions of workers, mainly in retail
then be included
Without going into the pros and cons of
the advisablity of this, the new law pro-
vides and demonstrates the costly, time
consuming and confusing complications
which arise when the hand of government
goes deeper and deeper into the peoples
affairs.
For instance, spokesman for retail in
dustry have been urging in testimony before
a Labor Department hearing examiner that
pay rates under the 81 an hour minimum
be established for students and learners.
This would keep the labor market open for
them But labor representatives have been
objecting, and keeping the problems up in
the air
Another problem lies in definitions. The
laws provisions vary for Executives, "ad-
illustrators" and professional employ
ees". But there are great many border
line cases and no one yet knows precisely
who falls or doesn't fall into these classified
tions.
1t is comparatively easy to pass law
giving the government more authority over
the affairs of enterprise and individuals.
But more often than not in these cases, try
ing to pin down just what the law demands
is far more difficult matter
The new Wage-IIour Law is a spectacular
addition to the jungle of regulatory red tape
that is slowly choking progress in every field
from railroads to rockets.

Kimelmdn Predicts
$50 Million Income
From Tourism

A tourism income of $50,0OO,0 900
a year from $50, 900 visitors by
1865 is the goal of the Virgin
Islands, Commissioner of Com
merce Henry L. Kimelman told
200 travel agents, tour operators,
air and ship line officials and
travel writers who met him in
New York recently.
I'VE have concrete plans for
this, "the Commissioners told them
"Harbor Improvements in st.
Croix, including a new dock at
Fr~ederiksted, will enable any
cruise ship afloat to dock in town.
This also will be possible in ST.
Thomas, with the dredging of
Charlotte Amalie Harbor."
Stressing the Importance of
convenient air travel to tonrism,
he said that measures are being
taken to bring the jet age to the
Virgin Islands. The strip at st.
Croix's Alexander Hamilton air
port will be heightened and
strengthened under plans pro-
posed by Governor Paiewonsky
and will be able to handle jet
flights from continental United
States by the end of 1862. Pan
American has committed itself to
commence jet service when our
facilities are ready. The FAA has
approved the governors plan to
extend the runway at Truman
Airport in st. Thomas to accom-
modate turbo-pro planes by the
end of 1861"
The overall tourism plan will
include a public relations and
educational program at home,
Commissioners Kimelman said, ex-
planning, 'This will be combined
with a vocational training pro-
gram to be aimed at improved
service for our visitors and proper
training of new workers entering
fields related to the tourist indus
try.
A large segment of our economy
our hotels, restaurants, taxi dri-
vers, gift shops-are vitality con
cerned with providing the type
of atmosphere in these islands
which will make visitors want to
return again and again. We must
let them know that we appreciate
having them with US.

created positions made by
Governor PaieWonsky before
his departure for Hawaii last
week have just been issued.

For several days there was
a question whether or not the

prevail Of the Governor, would

tration officials were said. to

ming to pigeon-hole them. But
the Governor is planning to

during the week Of July 2,
and the appointments are to
go into effect July /,
Only three Of the appoint
ments were finally held up,
for reasons which were not

bricks, as Price and Rent Con
troll Agent, Department, in
Of Property and Procurement,
in St. Croix; Ernesto Carrero
as Tax Review Agent, Saint
Croix, and Mrs. Carmen ST.
billy, as Assistant to the
Budget Director. These APP
Pointments wPre approved

departure last week.
Instead Of issuing the ap-
p%ointments or an unstated

wrote on the face Of the ap-

limited to the l96O-6l fiscal
year, and that the holders are
