Virgin Islands Quiet
President Truman has twice come out for a referendum. When it is conducted the choice is expected to be between statehood, independence or a relationship simtiar to dominion status. Mr. Pinero said the views of the people are not known so it is impossible to predict the outcome. There ‘has been little or no demand in the Virgin Islands yet for either independenece or statehood. The local administration is now examining the question of future government structure. A logical next step in self-govern-ment is considered to be appointment of a representative in congress, possibly with voting rights. The islands now have no. representative. Navy Rules Two Samoa and Guam are now under naval rule and there is criticism
it is felt the navy has taken no| steps toward developing local .self-| government. Reps. Andrew B. Bie-| miller, (D. Wis.) ‘and Henry M.| Jackson (D. Wash.) have both in-| troduced bills to shift the civil] government of the islands to the department of interior, leaving control of the bases to the navy. | The Jackson and Biemiller bills would apply to any additional is-| lands this nation took over in the| Pacific for security purposes. How- | éver, there has been talk of man- | dating the islands to the United Nations as far as government of the people is concerned, leaving full cgntrol of the military assets in| the hands of the U, 8. This question waits future developments in connection with the United Nations trusteeship council.
