Correspondence
Christiansted,
May 19,
1922,
The Editor 'St
Croiwx Avis,”’
Dear Sir:—
Mr.
Svendsen
writes
in
today’s
issue
of
the
Avis that
a
person
who
annonymously
attacks
him isa
coward
trying to hide
his real
motive,
We take
exception
to
this remark,
and
would beg
io
say
that
we have
not
attacked
nor
intended
to attack
Mr. Svendsen,
but
we
have assailed
his system,
ard whether
we
sign
ocur
real
name
or
write
under
a
pseudonym
would
not
alter
the
facts.
We
will
make
this
proposal:
If
Mr.
Svendsen
will show
publicly
and
satis-
factorily
that
our complaint
of the
17th
instant
was
unwarranted
or
false,
we
will openly assume
responsibility for this
discussion
under
our
own name.
If on
the other hand the
matter
was
as
repre-
sented,
and
the
timely
action
of
the
police
for
which
meny
are
thankful
weuld
make
us think it
was.
we see
no
reason
for Mr. Svendsen
to kick.
When
we
complained
of the
behaviour
at
the
theatre
did we lie or tell the truth?
TUntil
it
ean be brought
out
that
we
misrepre-
sented
the case,
it remains
one of fact
and
not
person.
We
consider
it in
the
same
light as if we
invited
somecne
to
spend
an evening at
our
house
and
also
had
some
roughnecks
there
whose
be-
haviour
was insulting
and
annoyirg
to
our
cuest,
but
we failed
to bring
these
ill-mannered
people
to order.
Wonldn't
there
be
just
cause
for complaint
and
blame
of us
for exposing
our
guest
to
such
an
experience?
How
much
more
then shall
we expect prctection
at
a place
of public entertainment
where
an admis-
sion
fee is paid,
not only for
the amuse-
ment,
but for
the opportunity
of enjoy-
ing
said
amusement.
No
one
has
any
more
right
o
make
it
unpleasant
for
others
in the theatre
than
on the
jublic
street,
and just
as
we desire
to preserve
cur
peace
and safety
on
the sireet,
just
so
likewise
in public
places
of
anuse-
ment.
We have
not attacked
Mr. Svend-
sen,
we
repeat,
but
we
are
unabje
1o
understand
his
position
in
this
matter
where
he
seems
to
resent
ocur
seeking
what
we are entitled
to and
need.

One
of
the
objectionable
fea-
tures
of

bad
behaviour
was

of suzgszstive

Who
could
be
satisfied
with
this?
