Residents of the towns are delighted with the new look" as a
result of the paving Of streets and other improvements which make
driving and walking much easier.
No one can deny that the Public Works Department had always
claimed that if they had the tools they would do the job. They are
right! And what makes it interesting is that its the same men that
are turning in such splendid jobs.
1t is suggested that the Virgin Islands Corporation every once in
a while, during the harvesting season, or even after, attach one of
clear up the pieces of sugarcane and trash that litter the highways.
That should not be too expensive an operation.
Also, with SO many cane fires on vicorp fields, how about mount
ing a few water tanks on old truck chassis and have them available
in cases of emergencies? One wonders what will happen. should a fire
break out in the towns while the fire engines are in the country fight
ing cane and grass fires.
Then, too it is costly.
No one questions the right of gift shops to open on Sundays but
at least wait until after the church services are over-say l o'clock.
We are now growing accustomed to hammering and saving going
on next door to a church during the services. One would think that
such persons would stop just for the hour and a half o two that
people worship. But, maybe, that is progress.
There is an article by DR.. Theodore R. Van Delen headed:
Speeding Ambulances Create Needless Perils" in which he writes
in the Daily News:
For several years / have voiced my objections to ambulances|
that blast their way through traffic with siren shrieking: The drivers
assume that everyone hears the racket and is going to stop or pull
over to the curb. But this is not always done and ambulances have
crashed into moving cars, buses and trucks at intersections and on
the wrong side of the street.
Most people seem to think that every accident or heart attack is
an emergency and that the life of the individual depends upon split
second medical decisions and care. There are only a few real emer-
gencies, such as controlling a massive hemorrhage, opening up an OBJ
structed windpipe, and restarting a heart beat
1t is questionable whether a person who dies shortly after reach
ing the hospital would have lived had he arrived two minutes sooner.
This group includes victims of a massive heart attack II stroke and
the MORALLY wounded. They have received emergency treatment at
home or in the office and the ambulances are equipped with oxygen
DR.. George. ]. Curry Of Flint, Mich, recently reported on $500
consecutive ambulance runs. He found the. outcome was no different
when the driver averaged more than 80 miles an hour from What II
wa when he travelled at a slower rate. In DR.. Currys opinion, the
danger of excessive speed to the patient the ambulance operator,
drivers and pedestrians outweighed the good accomplished"

Communist Party Will NOt Cooperate With Ruling
 To Register Membership

NEW YORK R - The head of the Communist party in this country said yesterday the party will not comply in any way with the U. s. Supreme Court ruling that the party must register as an arm of a foreign power.
 Gus Hall, the party's general secretary, said the ruling Mon day tasks the Communist party to commit suicide. We are not going to cooperate"
 He said officers of the party would prefer to spend the rest of their lives in jail rather than be- tray the trust of the membership by making their names public.
 The high court ruled that the party must register under the Internal Security Act of 1850 as representative of foreign power, and list it's members, of ficers and financial records.
