People Pleased With Work Of Leg. Delegates
We are happy to note the favorable impression made on the main land by the V. I. Legislative delegation headed by President Anduze of said body. This in turn has also gained very favorable reaction from our people at home who feel that the delegation is respected and therefore likely to accomplish more for these islands and their people than otherwise. Some are particularly pleased at the recognition accorded the men by President Eisenhower who saw them so soon despite the fact illness interrupted his schedule.
Knowing the situation as we do we are keeping our fingers crossed until we are assured no double crossing has been done by our fallen angels.
