LDear Mr. Editor: _ "Please allow me oaly a little space in your paper to say something about our beef story. Sometime ago I read in the S:. Thomas papers that they had hinder- ed all exportation of cattle from both the islands of St. Thomas and St. Johns. What .relation is St. Croix to those is- lands? [ would say sister, and yet St. Croix is shipping away all the eattle they can find : nd leaving the place in such a state that the buichers will soon have no beef to supply their customers. The peo- ple of St~ Croix is dead to that fact. I know a certain butcher that tried all he could to get a calf small or large for slaughter to supply "his customers and everywhere almost was told that - what they had was already sold to Porto Rico. _ What a thing?
