With refer- | ence to the guns, while they are orpa- | menting the wharf, they are at the same time @n obstruction, particalarly when mzrchandise is being landed. Under the former Administration the Tnspector of Customs, Mr. Andersen, was very care- ful, he always gave a time himit for the | removal of lumber and other goods that ; ware landed on the wharf. The Honor- able 2nd Member for Christiansted Coun- | try District is justified in bringing this | matter before the Council, because some ! people are infringing a great deal on the | rights of this Municipality. | would have no objection to @ wan having some- thing oun the whaif fora morth or (wo, but when it comes to two or thive years | 1 cannot agree, | 20d Member for Christiansted Country Distriect (Berg) remarked: Mr. Viee- Cuairman.

({['he Speaker read a Paraizrapn {rom the Pouliee Ragulations) and continu- iy¢ said, —ls the guns were given to the Municipility they eouid be erected in sach & way as could ornameant the wharf and yet not form an obstruction, Despa.ening Secretary (Barrett) re- miarked: Mr. Viee-Chairman. The guns wiil be taken away both from Caristian- sted and Frederiksted this week. [ am sure the F:deral Givernment would b» very, very tnankiui tv this Municipaiity ifit would take the contract for moving these guns for the sum of $50.00. The primary visit of the U. S. S. Antares to this Muricipality is for the purpnse of making preliminary arrangements for the renioval of these guns. 2nd M mber for Cliristiansted Town (Canegata): Who hbhas charge of the wharf ? Degpatehing Secretary (Barrett): It is under the supervision of the Pubiic Works Officer. The Police eould be in- structed to ask the owner of the engine to remove it from the wharf. Ist Appointed Member (Coulter): The Police Denartment has nothing to do with the wharf, it ils under the control ot the Collec: or of Customs. 4th Member for Frederiksted Country Instriet (Andersen): This is an executive matter, nct a legisiativs ma‘ter. 2nd Me nber for Chris iansted Town (Canegata;: lam giad tbat this Reselu- tion has e.me up, b2cause no one seems to know wh) has charge of the whart, It is high timae aow that ap officer be put in charge of it, 4th Memoer for Fredariksted CHruntry District (Andersen): Accordi 1 o the old Danish Law the Custom Officer has charve of the wharf. [ understand that the Custern Officer has charge of the wharf in 'rederiksted. The Vice-Chairman: The matter wili go over until the vext meeting so as to give time (0 find out who has charge of the wharf. 4th Member for Frederiksted Country Distriet.. (Anders:n): In view of the fact that we will soon have a visit of the fleet 1 suugest that the Despaiching Secretary or the Chairman of the Coleni- al Counct! or the Chairman of the Muni- cipal Commitiee write to the responsible perty asking that the wharf be eleared. Despatehing Secretary (Barrett): 1 would be very glad to do that. Further discussion on the Resolution was postponed un'il the next meeitog The Vice Chairman remarked: JF'wo Incerpeliations address-d to the Chair- man of the Council by the Honcrabe 2nd Member for Chrisiia. s ed ,Country Dis- trict (Bery) have been reciived and read to the Council. In answer to the first I can gsay ihat as faras 1l am aware the Chairman of the Council has no official knowledge as to the dicposition of the Memorial. And to the second | wish to say that I do not feel myself competen: to interpre: the ordinance. We all have different iceas as to the interpretaiion of the law. 2nd Men ber for Christiansted Country District (Jerg) remarked: Mi. Vice- Chairman. [ don’t see how the Munici- pal Commi tee i 8 going to use the Ordin- ance it they cannot interpret it, I ask this cuesticon because some of my con:ti- tuents who are land-owners are asking me whethe: they are entitled tea loan or not. Personally I think the isiand would be helped it they are |granted Ihans the same as squatters and parcciists, 1
