THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD ACQUIRE LAND

THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD ACQUIRE LAND
VIEWED RON any angle whatever, this paper is OPP
posed to disposal of any OF the lands now owned by the Virgin
Islands Corporation. There is simply no justification tor it,
for once the land is disposed of it will certainly never be re-
gained, and before we know it even the government will be
a mere f~igurehead.
THE YER best in this situation is that the Government
of the Virgin Islands acquire the land. That done, the people
OF these islands, and especially. St. Croix will be assured that
I,7UO acres OF some OF the best land, will not fall into the
hanus OF spectators whose only purpose will be to manipulate
it tor their private gains. But there IS also the greater danger
that prsonal manpulauon will deprive. the Island OF the IN
productive use Of this land.
E US ASSUME, for example, that the land is split up
into large estates. On each OF these may be built a tine house.
Ae uat point this island Will have lost one OF It's most i'm
porcant means OF meeting its economic needs. This would
spell disaster in that the income from this type OF use would
not only be limited, but extremely static. Land OF this type
must DE put in production, and nothing else.
WE BEG TO disagree with Senator Anderson, who
would prevent this land from going to the Government OF the
Virgin Islands. If he is successful, then what? If the Virgin
lslaln,uss; Corporation is beng dissolved, then what Of the
assetsp We can think of no better disposition of the land than
by purchase by the local government. Ibis would az once IN
sure that the land would not be the subject of speculation.
This land should not be allowed to be acquired by a corpora
ton, tor once this is done then no one here would have any
control, and the next step of such a corporation would be its
own business. Such a possibility could be frightening,
AT LEAST if the local Government owned the land, then
it could write the terms for any lease, and those using the
land would have to use it in accordance with the terms of
such lease. rs@s~
THE SENATE of these Islands should work for the de-
feat Of the Anderson bill. -
