ON OUR WAY UP

AS IS SAID in baseball parlance, the Governor Of these
Islands has his work cut outfor him" Within memory, Gov
ernor Paiewonsky is the first Governor who has been honored
after only the first year in office. That he has done a very good
lob is without question, and this can be said affrmatively, and
without any fear of contradiction.
EVERY MAN wants to live up to his best, and maintain
the highest possible level Of performance An incidental, occa-
sional, or spotty performance is certainly a sign OF great
ness. The Governor has shown that he has the local situation
in full command. He knows the problems, and he has ideas as
important asset Of any chief executive.
BUT THE GOVERNOR has shown more. He has shown
that he can get along with the legislature. They have conf
dence that he has the welfare of the people at heart, and
therefore will seek only those programs which run to that I'll
innate good. He also knows that withouta good legislature,
fully aware Of the problems and a way to solve them, no ad-
ministration could possibly succeed.
H E. ahead will tell whether the first year was
Just the beginning. Great things are in store for these Islands,
but much work is necessary. Water, electrical power, housing
industry, the wise, effective and efficient use Of manpowef
must all be met. And these are Just a few.
WITH THIS excellent beginning the people Of these Is
lands can now look forward to the day when we shall be a
thriving and prosperous people, governing ourselves, and going
about our business in such a manner that indeed we can be
pointed to as the showcase. of democracy.

Label to Stoy
Pending Appeal
BY the Associated Pres

An Agriculture Department
regulation requiring a special
label Of Imitation ham" on
smoked hams that have been
watered will remain effective
pending Supreme Court action.
Chief Justice Warren signed
an order late yesterday con-
tinuing the regulation pending
action on a departmental ap-
peal to be filed next month.
The department will appeal
from a February decision by
the United States Court of
Appeals here that the regula-
ton was "capricious and ar
bitrary." The regulation has
been attacked by Armour &
Co. and other meat packers.
The Court of Appeals was
about to issue an order per-
mitting Armour and others to
market watered hams without
labelling them as imitation
when Justice Warren acted at
the request of the Agriculture
Department.
The regulation requires the
label on smoked hams with an
added moisture content up to
10 per cent of original weight
of uncured hams.

President Kennedy's new dis
armament plan brought con-
flicting reactions today from
Senators Goldwater, Republican
of Arizona, and Humphrey,
Democrat of Minnesota.
Senator Goldwater called it a
dangerous exercise in utter
futility," while the Democratic
whip said it has put the United
States into first place in the
race for peace.
I'VE have kept our pledge
to the United Nations and to
all of humanity that peace with
honor has the highest priority

ator Humphrey.

demonstrated that We shall
never be afraid to negotiate
but we do not negotiate from
fear"
Senator Humphrey said the
plans is presented at a time

unequaled strength. He said it
also came at a time when the
world hungers for peace and
fears the possibility Of war by
accident or miscalculation."

Senator Humphrey continued.
1T also removes any grounds
for justifiable criticism here at
home that the United States
disarmament proposals may
weaken our security"
Senator Goldwater said the
plan could trap the United
States in a web of our own
weaving" and give the Commu-
nists a tremendous advantage
in their drive for world domi-
nation.
The conservative Republican
said the administration has
"overreached" itself in trying
to make the plan palatable to
the Russians. He said a two
thirds reduction in world mill
tary forces in six years is an
absurd goal which the United
States cannot affort to con-
slider seriously in the face OF
Communist aggression.

people would rise up in idignant
