\7EST INDIAN sugar delegates who arrived in Lon-

Please Say Please

PARIS.

Tourists coming to France
this summer should benefit
from an all-ouf French cam-
paign to increase “polite-
ness” and “gentleness.”

“Politeness Fortnight” is
the official Government
answer to what is labelled as
the “age of materialism and






















over-attention to worldly
things.”
Lovely French mademoi-

sell4s launched the drive by
parading through the streets
of Paris carrying placards
with such slogans as “Try to
be more polite,” “Say
‘please’, it makes things
easier,” and “Vulgarity
means failure in life.”
Andre de Fouquieres,
French author and director
of the two-week campaign,
says, “Good manners are
suffering . France 4iives
largely by tourism. It is up
to us to see that we are ex-
\eptionally polite to our for-
eign visitors.”—I.N.S.

Russia Protests
MacArthur Action

WASHINGTON, May 12.

Russia today protested to the
United States against the action of
General Douglas MacArthur,
Supreme Allied Commander in
Japan in allowing the release of
“war criminals” before their sen-
tences expired.

The note added: “Such actions
of the Supreme Commander di-
rected at the alteration or even

abrogation of the deci of the
International Court blished
under the agr the
U.S.A. United Ki S.R.,
and China who the
aforesaid Court to rmine the

punishment to be imposed upor
the major Japanese war criminals
guilty of committing the gravest
crimes against humanity, consti-
tutes a gross violation of the ele-
mentary standards and principles
of the international law.”

The Soviet Government, the
note said, insisted that the United
States Government should. im-
mediately undertake measures 40
abrogate the “illegal circular.”

22-Year-Old
Murderess Must

Serve Sentence

FRANKFURT, May 12.

The United States occupation
Court of Appeals today upheld the
15-year prison sentence imposed
on Mrs. Yvette Madsen, 22-year-
old mother for murdering her
United States Air Force Officer
husband near here last October,

The opinion of the Appeal Court
written by Chief Justice William
Clark said: “We think that the
defendant's diseased mind if it ex-
isted at all has been given ample
recognition by the Trial Court (in
Frankfurt).

“That court diminished the sen-
tence from life surely not an ex-
cessive punishment for shooting a
loving tolerant and defenceless
husband, to 15 years.”

During the trial the Lower Court
was told that Mrs. Madsen left a
Party after an argument with the
host, Air Force Lieutenant Claude
Shelveton whom she __ slapped
across the face.

She returned home alone where
she wrote a note while waiting for
Lieutenant Madsen.

In this note Mrs. Madsen had
written, “I know my husband will
come home and beat me up. My
only defence is to protect myself
which is to shoot him-—the hee),
the rat, the low creature.”

Thousands Flee
Raging Waters
In Winnipeg

WINNIPEG, May 12.

Flood-fighting army units strug-
gled desperately to bolster bridges
in Winnipeg and nearby St. Boni-
face today as thousands fled the
unchecked raging waters of the
Red River and its tefbutaries.

Only one of the eleven bridges
joining the two towns and their
suburbs was still fully open snd
four were open only to essential
traffic. Lorries with men and
sandbags to the leaking dykes had
to make long detours.

Refugees, crowding into still dry
suburbs, besieged rail stations and
bus stations for transport to carry
them outside the Red River Val-
ley, and the risk of further flood-
ing. Already at the highest level
since 1842, the water had risen six
inches in the past 24 hours.

Mr. Twtfton challenged the
Government to deny that it paid
£144 a ton for beef from the
Argentine in November.

He compared this with th
position in other Europea
countries where he said the price!
of imported meat had dropped 2 |
per cent since the changeover}
from state to private trading 14]
months ago. |

“So these other countries have
had a drop of 25 per cent in the}

Asking for information about
the trade negotiaons with Ar-,

Mr. Turton said that in state
buying and selling, diplomacy
tended to be mixed up with

business deals. In business there
was a remedy for a dishonoured
eontract, but there was none that
could easily be taken when th«
the matter was handled by dip-

Is Underground Flying

Practicable?
R. STRABISMUS (Whom God
Preserve) of Utrecht has

been applying his amazing brain
to the question of the practica-
bility of underground flying. The
advantages in secrecy and secur-
ity, he thinks, would be counter-
balanced by the fact that the
higher one wanted to fly below
the earth's surface, the deeper the
excavations that would have to be
made. As for undersea flying by
seaplanes, this may be ruled out,
because as fast as excavations on
the sea-bed were made the sea
would fill them, The sage points
out that to fly underground for
any. great distance would necessi-
tate excavation on a hitherto un-
dreamed-of scale.

NoSunday Bes!
For Father

HARTFIELD, Sussex.

The Reverend G C. Pepys, rece
tor of Hartfield, says that father
avoids Sunday church services be-
cause he dislikes dressing in his
“Sunday best.”

Rev. Pepys has been holding a
religious “brains trust” in a local
pub to find out why people stay
away from church.

“lL always have a few drirks
with the locals, but I learned a lot
from the brains trust which was
part of last week's mission in
Hartfield,” said the 35-year-old
ex-Navy chaplain.

“T know now that it is de«
finitely ‘father’ and not ‘mother?
who objects to dressing up to come
to church.

“He has probably got up early
to help with the chores and is
contemplating relaxing in his old
clothes for the rest of the day
when services begin.

“Now I have had a chance to
make it clear to the villager that
I am just as happy to see them
wearing their working clothes.”

THE GREAT

equ ipment.

REEZE

IS THAWING OUT

By David Temple Roberts

LONDON.

The. stringent period ‘of » post-war. austerities is com-

ing to an end.

e great freeze is thawing out.

Grad-

ually, but unmistakably, we are being allowed, in these

islands, to do mote of what
it.

I can quote you many examples

from this week’s news alone. The
“$/- meal limit” in restaurants
has been officially abolished. An
argument is going on about whiy
the prices of vegetables are reach-
ing diazy heights. For once there
is hardly a murmur to be heatd
that Government should control
prices, Instead, reasonably enough
it is the traders, the middlemen
at Covent Garden mafket, among
others, who are coming under
fire. For once the power of the
purse is starting to rule the mar-
ket. The price of fish tumbled
down when people gave up buy-
ing it in protest. The same is
happening to these vegetables.

As for the “5/- meal”: that nad
been sWept out of sight by the
tide of surcharges, cover charges,
wine charges, special charges,
oyster charges, etc, that cascaded
down the hill. Now the regula-
tion has gone and each restaurant
can charge, in competition with
the others, just what it thinks its
customers will pay. The first re-
sult was that the restaurants have
added some’ choice luxuries to
their menus and the fare looks
very tempting — at phenomenal
prices. But we expect some of
these prices will seale down as
the first fine flush of “non-_austeri-
ty” caters find their pockets can-
not manage what their appetites
would like.

The unfreezing of the great
Labour-sponsored post-war freeze
is also putting the price of many
things up. The nationalized Coal
Board hag decidéd to ask another
two shillings and sixpence a ton
for ¢oal for the Englishmafi’s
traditional open fire. That will
cause an uproar. But the facts are
that the great coal mines on whith
Britain's industrial wealth was
founded are now run at suth
high cost that there are only two
alternatives —. soak the overseas
consumer of coal, and overcharge
the home consumer, for poor
coal. The Coal Board is trying
both alternatives—still, it is alarm-
ing to learn that British coal
sells in Europe at prices only just
below United States coal shipped



We please when we can afford

across the Atlantic, and original-
ly mined, for high wages, by John
L. Lewis’s American miners.

The taxi drivers are again
threatening to strike. They have
found, as anyone could have pre-
dicted, that the extra threepence
put oh the cab face is being taken
out of the cabbies tip. We can
expect the fares to go up again
—but we hope they will not take
the fantastic upward spiral they
followed in Paris where new ad-
justed taxi-meters were no soon-
er installed than the fares went
up again.

The great unireezing nas its
benefits. Rising prices make it
easier to find theatre seats in
London, corner seats on the trains,
a bar stool in a pub. Soon we
will be able to buy a new car

Undignified Lords

Rarely has there been such a
display in Their Lordships’ House.
Usually the Lord Chancellor sits
on his black, armless “sofa,” call-
ed the woolsack, to preside over
a quiet and dignified gathering
of honoured and elderly states-
men in a rather too small, and
slightly stuffy, chamber in the
Palace of Westminster. But Lord
Vansittart spoke out — on Com-
munism. He spoke for two hours,
without a note, with dramatic
effectiveness, denouncing the in-
filtration of “communists” in pub-
lic life and public corporations—
the B.B.C, the British Council,
and the Festival of Britain. He
gave names. Lord Stansgate, the
Labour peer who hides under this
title the name of Mr. Wedgewood
Benn—long known for scathing
speeches in the Commons, took
issue with Lord Vansittart, not on
the day of his speech, but later.
The Labour Peer put down a
motion that Vansittart had acted
to injure the prestige of the Lords

by inaccurately denouncing vari-

ous citizens from a_ privileged

Report On Bevin

A few weeks ‘in bed allowed
our Foreign Secretary to lose 21
pounds of weight. He says he
will be in much better health for
it — but his old photographs will
have to be scraped by the news-
papers. He now has a lean anc
lined look. Recently his friends
advised him to drop his jeb and
npt drive himself to death. Ernest
Bevin then argued back — the
other way. He said he felt that
if he gave up work and relaxed
—perhaps to the rarely enlivened
air of the House of Lords — he
would die quickly. To preserve
his life he intends to keep up
the pressure of the Foreign See-
retaryship.

weeks there has been a recrudescence of
life in that Union and now various efforts
are being made to increase the salaries of
clerks and to secure for them conditions of
employment not generally obtaining.

One of the demands put forward by Mr.
C. D. Thomas, the President of the Clerks
Union, at a meeting with the Council of
the Chamber of Commerce recently was
for the institution of Pension Schemes cov-
ering all grades of clerks. Putting the case
for the clerks Mr. Thomas said, “The
modern trend is that a pension is earned

and not given as a gift.”

There can be no doubt that the absence
of Pension Schemes in many businesses is
mot conducive to efficiency, as many per-
sons who have reached the age when they
have earned a rest and whose age makes
them less able to perform their duties
efficiently are forced to carry on because of

fio pension rights.

In The Bubble...

On the .fourth side an excited
frieze of people on the terrace
of the building we had just left.
In the glass bubble of our hover-
plane cockpit we bobbed gently
up and down.

I took out my pocket handker-
chief. At once, from the terrace,
from the wide boulevard below,
from windows all round thousands
of white dots were agitated.
Hastily I put the handkerchief
away: just as well be a goldfish
in the parlour bowl.

“Shall we go up?” We soared
100 feet or so, and hung in the
sunshine over the Fair City with-
in the greater city of Milan.

In all directions skyscrapers,
offices, and flats seemed to hava
risen with us. There was the
Gothie fretwork of the cathedral,
there the massive bulk of the
Central Station, and look, the
Scala Opera House, where Margot
Fonteyn danced last night.

We circled slowly over the
metropolis of industrial Italy,
picking out the mighty Sforsesco
fortress, the church of Santa Maria,
which glories in Leonardo’s paint-
ing of the Last Supper, Na oleon’s
Are de Triomphe.

of dealing with irs, festivals,
and exhibitions is not to walk, not
to ride, but to hover. We float
down a main axis, the Avenue of
Industry, and pause beside a long
line of flags surmounting the
Palace of the Nations.

Gliding alongside the glass walls
we survey the displays of 42
nations within. Something will
have to be done about upper-floor
privacy as the hover age goes on.

No Soviet flag this year; Russia,
unable to buy a gpace of com-
manding importance, has refused
to come.

Now we are over the orangery.
Among the rainbow flower beds
and summer furniture a gigantic
Fiat marine engine lies like a
stranded whale.

Here is a tal] pavilion—going
up, furs, perfumes, plastics; and
another—going down—ceramics,
motor-cycles, sports goods. Says
the pilot: “Look, that is some-
thing like a motor-boat.”

Woosh! A pair of giant horses

They’re made of bronze. We are

trade shows of competing nations,
in search of Britain’s contribution,
only to discover it, as usual, tucked
into a top-floor-back.

This year we have run to a coat-
of-arms in white plaster, a row
of placards, and three potted
palms.

Much of the narrow space is
devoted to the B.B.C.; the only
leaflet tells how the B.B.C. is in-
dependent of *the British Govern-
ment, which lavishes millions on
overseas broadcasts.

Italians, already poster-blind,

thinking it over, I can well see
how the Czechs have come to hold
this view — some of them quite
consciously, but most of them un-

Europe after the war by exploit-

Yet the diffi-

to them. They are forced, by the nature of
their employment to maintain a certain
standard of dress and the impact of devalu

adversely the position of the clerks.

Mr. Thomas has made out a strong case

which are widely discussed and
have a large public, nobody
bothers much about the B.B.C,
Which is all the more remark-
able when you think of the large
number of Czechs with British
affiliations, either because they
fought in the-British forces during
the war, or because they worked
with British Commandos, in
Czechoslovakia, or because busi-
ness connected them with Britain.
Now why this change?

No Deterioration

I do not believe—and Mr.
agrees with me—that it is to any
considerable extent due to a de-
terioration in the quality of the
B.B.C.’s output since the war.”

The Americans naturally come
first, because the Czechs turn to
them as the leaders in the defence
of the West against the, Soviet
attack.

But that does not explain why
the British lag behind the French

gramme from the same sources as
the Communist Party in Moscow,

Like the Moscow Marxists, the
British Marxists have proclaimed
their ambition “to socialise the
means of distribution and produc-
tion.”

They, too, are at war with the
two fundamental concepts on
which resistance to Communism
must be based — and with it re-
sistance to Moscow’s political war.

Britain’s Socialists—

1. Are opposed to the inviola-

bility of private property;

2. They have no respect for

the Rule of Law.

Only last week the House of
Commons was asked to approve a
piece of legislation which strikes
at the roots of the Rule of Law.

Such, however, is the deteriora-
tion in our conception of public
morality that not even the Tories
have made a fighting issue of it
and challenged the Government to
a division.

But there is no mistake about
this. In introducing retrospective



Nazi occupiers was to be impris-
oned as a criminal, perhaps even
shot. 5

Vhe fact that there never had
been any kind of law in the past
defining “collaboration” or making
it a crime did not worry the Con-
servative an non-Communist
members of the various coalition
Governments that took power in
Eastern Europe after the libera-
tion.

Bienes’s Fear

Collaborators were unpopular—
just as Mr. Lord and Sir John
Black are unpopular with large
sections of the British public.

Benes did not dare stand up
for the principle their case in-
volved for fear of being called a
friend of collaborators.

The Tories, apparently, are
similarly afraid of challenging a
division on the principle involved
in the Black and Lord case for
fear of being accused of being the

There were a few more acts and one minor
crack-up before the disgruntled crowd, which
had come in stages, descended en masse on
the inadequate and poorly organized trans-

of the little nearby town of Bievres, hunting
down empty buses like hungry beasts looking

for prey.

The last stragglers didn’t get back to Paris
until close to midnight.

for all the local people who care
about the theatre. But—please
note—little of this would have
been possible if the Bradford Civic
Playhouse had not had its own
theatre. This together with some
sensible co-operation among local
groups, is the secret of successful
amateur organisation on a high
level.

The above is taken from the
“Theatre Outlook” by J. B. Priest-

is simple, the sidewalk has been
erected on the wrong side of the
Bridge.

If one will stand on the side-
walk and watch the scramble
that is made by people getting
from the eastern side of the road
to the bridge one will not be sur-
prised that only 50% of the public
use the bridge, the wharf to the
southern end of the bridge is gen-
erally crowded with lorries and
carts receiving goods or by the
landing of ‘umber at the very
entrance to the bridge.

The public coming from Probyn
Street are more or less compelled
to keep on the eastern side as a
result, of the congestion on..the
wharr side and are therefore
forced to pass between the mov-
ing traffic to get to the sidewalk,
hence the small number that use
it. Just another blunder.

which has been grafted on to Vic-
toria Bridge.

There are no Pedestrian lanes
with reassuring “Please Cross
Here” signs to allow Pedestrians
to achieve either end of this
footbridge.

To enjoy the novelty of walk-
ing aéréss the new structure one
must také courage in hand and
run the gauntlet through the no.
man’s-land of traffic to get there.

Pedestrian lanes are needed
badly from Manning’s Corner
Store to the Park Stand, from
A Barnes & Co., Ltd.; to the
Park Stand pavement, from the
Park Stand to the foot bridge,
from the Electric Company’s
transformer to the other end of
the footbridge.

As it is, it smacks of a safe
crossing in a torrent, the first

cal conclusion,

Jewish Cemetery

To the Editor, The Advocate—

_ SIR,—The Jewish community
in Barbados are as distressed as
your correspondent “Passer-by”
at the state of the Jewish burial
ground in Synagogue Lane, and
are ready and anxious to put it
in order.

The hesitation is that the
owner has agreed to give the
Burial Ground to the Jewish
Congregation in Barbados but no
transfer of ownership can take
place until the congregation has
been incorporated by the Legis-
lature. A Bill to do this was
before the Legislature during the
last session but was never given
a hearing because it is a Private
Member's Bill and I understand
it is difficult to get them heard.

It is now getting to be intro-

“Cyril E. Smith” started to work
on the salvaging of the ‘“Potick”
yesterday, but failed in their first
attempt to raise it.

When it seemed that the vessel
had eased itself out of the mud
to some extent, the straps on the
“Cyril E. Smith” snapped and the
vessel sank again.

In this attempt to raise the
vessel, the “Potick’s” hull was not
raised above the water. Althoug!
the workmen are speculating the
possibility of raising it with the
two schooners, some of them are
of the opinion that some other
method of salvaging will have to
be employed.

£ penalty kick about 10 minute

Empire was a 10-man team dur-
ing the first half of the game anc
Played nine in the second halt

a few minutes before half time

The game took a fast turn from
the start and was packed with
thrilis throughout as Empir<
fought hard to miintain their posi-
tion in the Second Division with
Spartan yielding no grounds.
Both teams had many chances,
but the goalkeepers saved tries
which seemed on many occasion
certain goals.

It was during a tense moment in
the Empire area when a melee
took place and St. John handled
the bal. C. O. Gittens took the
kick and kicked it wel! out of the
reach of the goalkeeper.

Empire then made an added
effort to cover lost ground, but
the Spartan defence proved equal
to the occasion,

The teams were:—

Empire;— Archer. Wickman, St.

encounted stiffer opposition from
J. L. St. Hill and D, I. Lawless,
whom they eventually defeated
6—~1, 6—4, 4-—6, 6—3.

The Ladies’ Double also went
to Tranquillity, Miss M. Trestrail
and Miss A. Reid winning from
Miss Ena Bowen and Mrs. A. A.
Gibbons of Savannah 6—4, 6--2

Lone Win

The Savannah seasoned doubles

pair, Dr. Charlie Manning and
Eric Taylor scored Savannah's
lone win in three straight sels

over T. Schjolseth and D. Sean-
della— 6—3, 6-—-2, 6.1.

Most of the spectators watched
the Gun-Munro and Nothnagel
vs Patterson and Barnes matcn.
At onee it was evident that the
Tranquillity pair had a consider-
able umount of advantage in
experience and courtcraft as coim-
pared with the Savannah pair.

Gun-Munro served off first and
won his service. Clever placing of

the ball with some expert volley- ,

ing often caught the Savannah
pair out of position and five games
had been chalked up before
Barnes won his service to make
the score 5—1 in favour of
Tranquillity. He brought off some
powerful overhead smashes that
earned him well deserved points
and the game as well.

Encouraged

Heartened by this the Savannah
pair broke through Nothnagel’s
service and made the score 5—2
still in favour of Tranquillity.

But the visitors made a dever-
mined bid and only allowed Pat-
terson 15 péints when he served
again to win the set 6—2.

The next set saw Patterson anc
Barnes more comfortable. Munro
won his service again but Barnes
also won his. The games were
level at 2—2, but then Munro
again won his service and Barnes
dropped his to give Tranquillity
a lead by four games to two.

Nothnagel in a_ fine rally
smashed his way into the’ fifth
siagme for Tranquiltity winning
his service and making the games

5—2.
Good Effort

A good effort by the Savannah
pair, characterised by some pow-
erful baseline drivers both by
Patterson and Barnes saw
Savannah add the next two games
to their total making the score
5-4

The Tranquillity pair however
broke through Barnes’ service to
win the set by six games te four.

The third and final set saw
most of the fight knocked out of
the Savannah pair and Gun-Munro
and Nothnage!l romped home by
six games to love to win tne set
and the match.

What turned out to be the most
interesting match of the afternoon
was the Men’s Doubles fixture in
which J. L. St. Hill and D, I. Law-
less of Savannah opposed A. De
Verteuil and P. Waddell of Tran-
qguillity.

Star Of The Game

St. Hill, a left hander was the
star of this game but his partner
Lawless was correspondingly
weak. The visitors were obvious-
ly better paired and won the first
two sets 61, 0—4.

A commendable effort chiefly oar
the part of St. Hill who scored
with several first timers in his
powerful service, saw the Savan-
nah pair take the third seat 6—4.

There was some very clever
duelling at the nets and the crowd
roared their appreciation time
and again as all four players
Stood at the nets and duelled for
almost a minute at a time for s

pt aee of Walcott.

This Game
Is A Rubber

WHEN the West Indies open
their first game in London today,
against Surrey at the Oval, it will
be in the nature of a rubber fix-
ture, for each side has scored two
wins in the series today.

Many names now but dim
shadows on the edge of the field,
will flit across the mind’s eye, and
some glorious moments will once
again be relived.

For Surrey John Beresford
Hobbs with his magnificen’
double century in 1933, Jardine,
England’s famous “body line”
Captain with his skipper’s knock
of 104 in 1923, and Sandham

1930 scored a defiant century in
1928 to enable his county to
draw the game, occupy special |

But there were many other
praiseworthy performances in
these and today’s encounter will
be fraught with much interest.

—Seventh Game—

This will be the seventh clash.
Results are—two wins each, and
two games drawn.

In 1900 the County was not at
full strength and the West Indie:
won by an innings and 34 runs,
in two days.

ae

The team is J. Goddard (Capt).
Rae, R. Marshall, F. Worrell,

(.. Gomez, C, Williams, H. John-
son, and C. Valentine.

For Goddard, Gomez, Weckes,
Worrell, Rae and Walcott it will
be the third successive match.

Tne team arrived back in Lon-
con this afternoon, jubilant after
their two day victory over York-
shire. Goddard described the
vieket as the worst he had ever
seen, but added that apart from
minor aches all members of the
‘eam were perfectly fit. Sixteen
thousand people watched the two
days’ play and the West Indies
hare of the gate is £500. This is
double the amount they received
at Worcestershire.

A Reuter message states that
Surrey Rave chosen nine “certhin-
ties,”

They are: M. R. Barton, 7. YE.
2 capt iin, W. S. Surrege, L. Fishlock,

A. Bedser, A. V. Bedser, P. R
Whiiteker, Laker, and Constable,
the remaining two places rest be-
tween. the two left arm slow bowl-
ers, Me Mahon and Lock, and the
wicketkeepers Mc Intyre and
Kirby. Me Intyre who has been
suffering from a septic toe went
to the Oval to-day and hopes to
be pronounced fit to play.

Carlton Beat C.O.B.

Cariton gained a _ three—one
victory over Combermere Old Boys
in a Third Division football game
yesterday to maintain their lead
in that division. Y.M.P.C, defeated
Everton 3—2 and Police, Pickwitk-
Rovers 2—1 in the same division.



Surrey replied with 215, Mar-
tindale 3, Bertie Clarke 4 and
Constantine 2, sharing the wickets
between them. Second time at

-—Different—

It was quite a different story in|
1923. The County was at full
strength, with the exception of |
Hobbs, but Francis and “Snuffie”
Browne took 4 wickets each to
dismiss them for 87. Challenor
then sparkled in scoring an un-
defeated 155, and with Francis
scoring 41 at No. 10, West Indies
made 305

At this point Jardine the cap-
tain, fought gamely making 104
out of his team’s 836, But this
could not save them. Francis took
§ for 45, and then the famous
firm of “George and Tim”, pro-
ceeded to collect the 121° runs
needed to win.

Hobbs, Sandham, Barling, Jar-

Hobbs 123, Sandham 108 defied
