TIME TO CHANGE OUR THINKING

TINE TO CHANGE OUR THINKING
A. WOULD-BE three-way tiff in which the Mainland
Voice, assumes a role brings to mind the serious conditions
facing Virgin Islanders at home and on the mainland. Through
the years we have developed certain characteristics which are
most unfortunate, and which should be taken into conSidera-
ton and corrected quickly. We in these Islands have been ac-
cused of having a very low boiling point, and Of being SEN
stive beyond reason, or logic.
HEAVILY burdened with these traits, we spend much
time fighting the facts Of life, and therefore throw away many
excellent opportunities. Any review Of the past few years will
bring to light a number Of She most discouraging incidents
imaginable.
IN OUR ~sensitivty we cannot tolerate the mere thought
Of dissent. The slightest disagreement with what is said can
Immediately bring down the full wrath Of all hell itself. That
would be bad enough, but we forget the issue, facts, reason
ing and what have you, and promptly 60 after the one who
has dared to object, dealing in personalities.
TIME WAS when Ashley l. Totten, for example, was
feuding with Harry E. Taylor, Administrator for ST. Croix. The
AVIS during that period had occasion to differ with Mr.. Tot
ten. Out came Totten with his newspaper, depicting in carl
cature that the editor Of the AVIS was on Taylors knee, as a
Charlie Nc Carthy. ThaS was unwise because at that very mo-
mens, the AVIS and Nh. Taylor were at sharp odds over many
policies. But that did not matter. What mattered was that the
AVIS differed with Totten, and the war was on.
NOW M the Voice, repeating the caricature, and
going to the attack Why? Because there was a difference ex-
pressed. Instead of addressing itself to the issue, the Voice goes
into silly remarks about warped mind"
ARE approximately $4,000 Virgin Islanders in

stopped to realize that with unified ~oordnated leadership
Virgin Islanders on the mainland could exercise considerable
power, and win for themselves many advantages, not only
there but for the Islands. Instead, there are countless little
~squabbles, endless pickering, time, energy, money, and every
thing else lost.

of questionnaires sent to con-

The two members are not
particularly enthusiastic about

UNDUE INFLUENCE Yes
terday's column discussed the
employe unions resentment at
the way they feel the CSC and
Labor Department are inter-
preting President Kennedy'sI
executive order to make it as
harsh as possible on them.
They are particularly incensed
over the virtual ban of super
visors as union officers.
A. E. Casgrain, president of
the American Federation of
Government Employees Council
of Defense Lodges, provides an
other illustration of the incon-
sistency of csc guidelines.
The csc has ruled that in
ira office messenger service
cannot be used by employe
union locals in delivering mes
sages and communications to
management. In other words,
the union groups would have
to mail a letter to management
to deliver the message.
The unions contend that csc
Chairman John Macy, who had
a long personnel background in
Government before becoming
commission chairman, Is in
fluenced too much by the
various personnel officers in
Government.
AS a result, they feel, agencies
are being given a more or less
free hand to operate the new
labor-management program as
they see fit and will use this
authority to limit union rights
as much as possible.
Consequently, the Federal
white-collar employe unions
feel they are fighting for their
lives. Ironically, they had looked
forward for many years to q
presidential executive order
such as the one President Ken
nedy issued in January.
But they find that instead OF
helping them, it is posing
