The Gospel Tabernacle ON Tuesday Evening (30th) we con- tinue our Y.eeture on l “The Description of Conscience” Come and bring Yyourfriend. C. S MAYHEW, Pastor. OF THE FOR ST. CROIX. (Continued from Saturday’s Avis.) 2nd Member for Christiansted Town (Canegata) remarked: Mr. ‘‘bairman. My understanding is the minhute the Committee send in its report it ccases to exist. It seems to me the only thing o do pow is to recommit the bill until we have some idea as to how mach it would cost to work the road rolier, then we can bring in a bill for the maintenance of it. 3rd Member for Christianstea Country Distriet (Robt. W. Skeoch) remarkec: Mr. Chairman. What the 2nd Member for Christiansted Town has said is very true, but how are we going to get our knowledge? Hadn’t we better get iLe proponent of the Bill to find out some- thing about what it would cost to main- tain the road roller? They have road rollers ip the English Islands and in Porto Rien, but they are muech richer than we are here. Barbados, 1 believe, is a very economic country, I propose that information be obtained from Barbadcs as to the probable cost of maintairing a road roller. 4th Appeinted Member {(Blackwood) re- marked: Mr. Chairman. As one of the Members of the Committee appointed to receive aud report on the Money Rill, I urnderstand we were to suspend all dis- cussions on Bill No. 14 until we get the road roller; and it was recommended that the road roller be put under the econtrol of the Public Works officer. I supppse then we should get an estimate from the Public Works Officer as to the probable cost of maintaining the roller. Itis al- most:impossible for us to compare notes vsgth the neighboring islands, considering that conditions here are different !to those existing in the neighkoring islands. Some of our roads only need receonstrue- tion and some need repairing: these mat- ters we can thrash out when we get the road roller. It was stater here that maintenanee for the roller will come ocut of next year’s budget, with that under- standing I do not think many members gave much thought as to how we should raise funds to maintain the roller. The Member then read a statement as to number of ears, trucks ete., operat- ing on the island and’the revenues de- rived from them and the revenuss de- rived from the boat, horse and earriage tax and said,—l believe that would be sufficient and ample to keep our roads in fine condition. 1 have an estimste for working rollers in Porto Rico which was published in the papers. but I do not know if any member has read it. They have excellent roads in Porto Rico. As regards Government taking over the
