RESOLUTION.
Whereas
a resolution
adopted
by
.~
the
Colonial Council of Saint Croix,
'
Saint
Ihomas and Saint
John,
at a
!
joint session
held April 2,
1924,
ex-
|
preszed
the opinion that the present
.
form
of
government
should
con-
'
tinue
until
a
change
is requested
'
which emanates
from
the people
of
'
the Virgin
Islands,
and
whereas
it
.
is the consensus
of opinion that
the
5
people
of the Virgin Islands
are
de-
'
sirous
of
having
a
permanent
'
American form of civil government,
-
Now,
therefore,
it
is
resolved
.
that
the
Colonial
Council of
Saint
.
Croix appoint
a
select
committee
‘
to forthwith take
a plebiscite
of all
|
citizens of the Virgin
Islands
to
as-
.
certain
their wishes
in this
respect;
.
and it is further
resolved
that
said
|
committee
shall
draw
up the regu-
.
lations
for
the conducting
of such
'
plebiscite,
the result of which
shall
'
be
made public within twenty four
}
hours after it shall
have been
taken.
