Canadian officials have

a surplus of Canadian dol-

develop trade.
Canadian economists have
estimated that even if Brit-
ain spends as much money
in Canada during 1950
during 1949 on the staple
foods, there will be still a
surplus balance of $32,000,
000. (about £ 11,000,000)

This surplus, they said

Britain is believed to have

A cm. heed Raffle !
T is not impossible that some
home may be enriched in the
near future, at the cost of only
one cent, by the addition of 4
landscape in oils by an artist who
is known widely throughout the
British Empire.
Mrs. Dorothy McAvity,
F.RS.A., the distinguished Cana-
dian inter, who is holding an
exhibition of her work at the
Drill Hall next Saturday and
Sunday has given a landscape to
the local S.P.C.A. for raffling and
the method to be employed shou!d
appeal to the sporting instincts
of the public.
Tickets numbered from one to
one hundred are available and the
participant pays in cents equal to
the number drawn. While not
likely that number one would be
the winning number, there is an
even chance that possession of
the picture will be obtained for
less than fifty cents.
Mrs. McAvity, who has bee.
residing in Barbados for some
months, has painted and exhibited
in England, India, Canada, South
Africa and the Middle East, being
perhaps best known for her por-
traits of Queen Mary and the
Duke of Windsor, when the latter
was Prince of Wales.

Weather?
S$ this cold weather affecting
you? A lady told me yesterday
that for the past two nights she
has had to use two blankets and
a pair of her husband’s woollen
socks, before she could get warm
enough to go to sleep.
A visitor from up North how-
ever, who recently arrived here,
has a different story. The weather
is lovely, the nights are beautiful,
and the temperature just right.
“Don’t forget,†she said, “when I
left home it was four below zero!â€
Anyway, whatever way you like
it, this cool weather is definitely a
welcome change from the abnor-
mal hot spells we experienced un-
til late last year.

Why Not A Union
For Cricketers?
© India Tourists Share In Profits
BY BRUCE HARRIS
LONDON (By Mail).
Some day, perhaps, we shall have a Cricketer’s Union,
like that run by the soccer men. Then the meagre liveli-
hood some of our county pros scrape from the game will
be improved.
‘ I was talking with an England
player to-day about the rewards
ot efficiency, not great even for
cricketers at the top. He told me
- that even by comparison with the
MCC-sponsored side to Australia
the Commonwealth unofficial
team now touring India are doing
remarkably well. ,
They have a guarantee of about
£400 plus £4 a week spending
money out there, plus again a
share of the tour profits which
look like being very large.
On our last tour in Australia
our cricketers had a £550 guar-
antee, with 30s. a week personal
money and a bonus of not more
than half the £550,
The Top Men
In South Africa, where the
terms came under heavy criticism,
our professionals were guaranteed
£450, plus £50 for “being a good
boy.†It was only after a lot of
fuss that the bonus was raised
by £75.
These, mark you, are the cream
of cricketers, of whom England
has no more than about a score.

thirteen rounds Freddie Mills

Then came the never-to-be-
fcrgotten fourteenth round. Both
fighters, definitely the worse for
wear, came up from their corners

like every one else at the White

score a knock-out. He was too
far behind on points to hope to
outstrip «his opponent in the re-

like David tackling Goliath, Mil\;
went in with both hands flailing
One of those blows had only te

The word ‘Out’ was superflu

Internationally, too, 1949 was

Admittedly, for the first

JOYCE
By Jack
Arthur Joyce Cary is a nov-
elist who came weil prepared to
his craft. Born in 1888, he pub-
lished no novel till his forty-
second year; but he had not been
wasting his time. The contribution
he has made to the modern Eng-
lish novel is clearly dependent in
many ways on the life of action
he led as a young man.
The Carys, a family from Don-
egal in Iréiand, were of south-
west English descent. Joyce Cary
entered the Nigerian political
service in 1913. In the first World
War he fought in a Nigerian reg-
iment and was A
magistrate, he worked in a remote
area, Borgu, and came to know
the people of the country thor-
oughly. Then, when his health
broke down, he turned to novel-
writing.
His work falls into three groups.
The first deals with Nigeria, the
second with childhood, the third
with the contemporary British
scene. Though there is much
variety both of method /and of
material in all his books, a con-
necting link can be found in a
certain vividness of sensibility, a
mixture of irony and warmth,
which they all share.
The African books begin with
Aissa Saved, and include The
African Witch, The American
Visitor, and Mister Johnson. They
are informed throughout with a
deep love and respect for’ the
natives; and their unchanging
theme is that of the dilemma for
for all concerned, administrators
and natives, as the old tribal life
breaks down and no new centre
of social balance is yet achieved.
Few writers, if any, have describ-
ed with richer insight the pangs
of growth in a primitive people
who have been torn away from
their old bearings and yet have
not won through to a new basis
of social integration.
Cary is specially successful in
showing how the different : vel
of outlook become entanylea, how
the different forces interlock. He
shows the tenacious survival of
tribal ways, the need to find some
new adaptation, and the confused
tension arising out of this; the
varying attitudes and methods of
the administrators; the unpredict-
able effects of missionary work;
the pressures of the general eco-
nomic situation which none of his
characters can altogether grasp.
He depicts. with a certain hearty
good-fellowship of satire the
various types of administrators
and missionaries, business men
and soldiers— those who want to
make a clean sweep of old ways,
and these who hope somehow
to preserve the old clan-basis;
those who become closer to the
natives than to the other Euro-
peans and those who are only
interested in “efficient Govern-
ment.†But it is for the natives
that he reserves his main affec-
tion, his warmest insight.
In The American Visitor the
brew of disturbing factors is made
all the more complicated by the
addition of an American woman-
anthropologist, who beginning as
a somewhat sefitimental admirer
of the natives, ends with religious
delusions that precipitate the
very disaster she wants to avoid.
Aissa Saved treats with Vol-
tairean irony the results brought
about by an earnest missionary
and his wife, But deeper even
than the ruthless irony.is a note
of tragic sympathy which em-
braces both missionary and native,
The effect is to build up a highly-
complex and yet powerfully-mov-
ing narrative of pathos and
passion, where the irony becomes
only one component of a deep
pity and love. Cary avoids any
direct comment; but the total im-
pression is overwhelming. The
fusion .of tragic irony and deep
indignait sympathy jn this book
is chatacteristic of all his work,
His tragic note is far from being
a pessimistic acceptance of evil.
For it tis always merged with a
warm response to people, a
passiongte interest in people and
their struggles. It seems to say:
Yes, things have gone wrong in
a way that is extremely involved,
but there is an unconquerable
element in peogle which is never
broken’\down, and the struggle
begins anew on the very ground
of the setback,
This attitude finds its strongest

expression, as far as the African
novels are concerned, in Mister
Johnson, The main character is
a young African clerk, an irre-
pressibly amiable and good-
humoured thief and murderer.
Cary gives the effect of having
entered with deep understanding
into the type, and of realising it
in finely individualised form. The
result is the entangled balance of
sympathies which he likes to
evoke, a delicately devised piece
of dialectical analysis of the give-
and-take between personal and
sociat forces. There is tragic
irony in this book too, but there
is also love, understanding and
hope.
After Mister Johnson Cary left
the subject of Africa, and turned
back to his own early years,
though still using something of
the method developed in the
African books, The result was
Castle Corner and A HouSe ot
Children — with an addendum in
Charley is My Darling, a study
of juvenile delinquency. In Castle
Dorner he looked back at Irish
political events, trying to gain
freshness by seeing them through
a child’s eyes. But the child can-
not. really grasp the _ political
significance of the events. Cary
seems fumbling to find the point
of detached irony and implicated
love ‘which served him well in
his African novels, but which
eludes him now as he turns te
home — politics. His fear of a
direct judgment here works out
as a weakness.
A House of Children is more
successful as it sets out simply
to recapture the essence of child-
hood-experience the child’s
periods of absorption in the events
going on outside him, and the
moments of illumination when a
person, a word, a thing take on a
sudden significance and serve as
a new foothold in the discovery
of reality.
Only now did Cary make the
direct attack on the British con-
temporary scene, The result has
been a trilogy, Herself Surprised:
To be a Pilgrim, The Horse’s
Mouth, and a single novel, The
Moonlight.
The style of the early books was
direct, with steady progressions
and dramatic breaks in the narra-
tive. Thus he described the na-
tives travelling on a river-boat.
Old Umoke had shut both his
eyes. The loyd, regular beat
ot the stern wheel dashing upon
the water like a mill, the trickle
of the waves against the low
gunnels, the thud of the engine
the drowsy murmur of conver-
sation, which filled the stifling
*tween-decks with all those
noises as appropriate to a ship
as the smell of oil, rubber, tar
and wet planks, gave to these
people sensations of luxurious
peace in which they visibly
stretched their limbs. The
screaming anxious mothers of
the day before lolled among
their packages with half-closed
eyes and sleepy smiles. Their
babies sprawled between their
shining thighs like puppies. The
grandfathers blinked at the
children, the glittering water,
which slid past in endless
smooth undulations; at the far
bank of the river and its forests
marching past like armies of
ragged infantry, with occasion-
ally a flag or an elephant. Their
faces were like surprised,
smoothed-out faces of young
children at a play, and it was
only those who had dropped
off to sleep who showed the

compressed mouths, the mourn-
ful wrinkles, the agonised or
broken-hearted expressions of
the old.
The strong pictorial sense, mov-
ing lightly from bread landscape
effects to small points of observa-
tion which bring out the human
aspects of the scene, is typical of
Cary’s writing at all phases. But
in these early books sensibility is
kept under strict control. In the
later books he relaxes the con-,
-trol, and in The Horse’s Mouth
he uses his painter’s eye to the
fuli. But underneath there re-
mains the clearly-observed actual
world,
A more obvious originality thus
shows up in these works than in
the African novels; but the ele-
ment of serenity, the balancing
of irony and love in convincing
narrative, is not so apparent. To
compensate, Cary develops all
sorts of verbal fireworks, techni-
cal tricks. In the last resort they
throw a momentary glare of
brilliance on to ‘the ‘faces of the
tale; but this fitful and erratic fire
has taken the place of the steady
sympathy and complete compre-
hension of the relation between
individual and social groups shown
in the African books,
The character connecting the
books of the trilogy is Sara, who
begins as a lovely young cook,
marries her employer, comes
under the spell of an artist, lives
with him, is deserted, becomes
cook and mistress of an old gen-
tleman, is pushed out by his rela-
tives, and in the end is killed by
the artist, Jimson,
Into her Cary has put all his
love. of life; he makes her the
careless and indomitable enjoyer
of people and things, of every
moment of time, and manages to
convey the full current of her
being, with extreme subtlety, Her
warmth, her position as a repre-
sentative of the common people
and their strengvh, is built up
also by her contrast with the
artist Jimson, a restless visionary
and paranoic swindler. What in
Sara is a calm stability becomes
in him a_ tormented hunger, a
bitterness against self and society,
which is yet ceaselessly overcome
by his artist’s joy in colour and
form, in the essential life-element
under all the lies and pretences.
Cary thus manages to exter-
nalise in Sara and Jimson the con-
flict which we feel at work
throughout all his writing, an
opposition and mating of the love
of life and the fear of it, the de-
sire to experience and know all
things without moral judgment
and the inability to escape mak-
ing the moral judgment.
In The Moonlight Cary con-
trasts an old Victorian lady and
the young rootless girl, who turns
out to be the old lady’s illegiti-
mate daughter. He steadily
probes into the old lady and brings
to light her full experience of life
under the respectable exterior—
and in the process makes one of
the most searching attacks on
Victorian values that British
literature owns and one to be com-
pared with Samuel Butler’s Way
of All Flesh. Cary leaves the
daughter about to bear a child
but unable to accept the marriage
which would smooth things out
for her. She has to go deeper and
futher to find the experience which
she can accept, the person or
group with whom she can unite,
But we do not feel in her the
moral capacity to advance be-
yond the negative decision; and
so her point of unfulfilment seems
to express the final uncertainty
and incompletion of Cary himself.
One is brought up, then, in these
later books against the inability,
or refusal, of Cary to find out
exactly where he is or what he
is up against, socially and artisti-
cally. In the African books his
experience as administrator meant
that he dealt with situations of the
sort which he had handled as.a
responsible participant, and so the
conviction of a definite choice
remained in the story despite the
evading of any explicit ju'gments,
In the British scene he can draw
on his African books for technical
means, and he can exploit those
means in a much more extended
and complex way; but the central
compulsion is weakening.
But despite this «lack in the
later books, there is no doubt
that they stand high among con-
temporary British novels, because
of their pervasive passion, their
their resolve to
face up to social and individual
their refusal to take
easy ways out, and their persistent
love of man which reaches out
beyond the rages and the ironies.

Radio Plays
BEGINNING next Sunday there
will be broadcasts over the local
radio system of a number of out-
standing plays. These plays were
originally broadcast over the
B.B.C. and were recorded by the
B.B.C. Transcription Service
for use overseas. Barbados is in-
deed fortunate to have these plays
made available in this way as it
will enable listeners to hear well
known actors and actresses in
world famous plays.
Amongst the plays to be heard
will be:
Othello
The Merchant of Venice
‘The Tragedy of Coriolanus
Cherry Orchard by Chekhov
Family Reunion by T. S. Eliot
The first play to be broadcast
will be Oliver Goldsmith’s “She
Stoops to Conquer.†It will be
broadcast in two parts—the first
part on January 15th from 8.30
p.m,—9.30 p.m. and the second
part on the following Sunday,
January 22nd also from 8.30—
9.30 p.m. The cast in “She Stoops

Play Adapted
The play is adapted for pro-
ducing by Ronald Simpson and
produced by Wilfred Grantham.
In order that these plays may
be heard by as many people as
possible, the British Council have
made arrangements for ‘“Wake-
field†to be opened on Sunday
evenings. Through the courtesy
of the local Broadcast Servire
their engineers have arranged
for the progamme to be relayed
through the Deccola. This in-
strument—which will be familiar
to music lovers who attend con-
certs of recorded music at “Wake-
fieldâ€â€”gives exceptionally faith-
ful reproduction. A special fea~
ture of the instrument is iis
three loud speakers which carry
high, middle and low registers.
Reception at “Wakefield†both in
quality and volume should there-
fore make for good listening.
The second play to be broad-
cast will be “Hamletâ€. This will
be given in three parts on succes-
sive Sundays beginning on Jan-
uary 29th. John Gielgud plays
Hamlet and Celia Johnson
Ophelia. John Gielgud’s Hamlet
is considered by many critics to
be the finest of modern times.
It is hoped that as many peo-
ple as possible will avail them-
selves of the opportunity of hear-
ing these plays and the British
Council welcomes anyone who 1s
unable to listen at home and
wishes to join a listening group
at “Wakefieldâ€, They should be
there on Sunday 15th not later
than 8.15 p.m. Admission is of
course free and no tickets are
required.
A special booklet entitled
“World Theatre†issued by the
BBC may be seen either at the
offices of Radio Distribution or
in the British Council Reading
Room. It contains articles by
Sir Lewis Gasson on “The

Talking About Music « «
Not The Genius
Fashions Change-—but
|
|
By Neville Cardus
One of the more ironic illusions
of the world is that we are all
free to choose our pleasures.
The layman at a concert says:
“I know nothing about music
but I know what I like,†the im-
plication being that though he
may be ignorant he is at any rate
independent.
The chances are he is enjoy-
ing himself under the sway of
fashion, applauding one com-
poser rather than another, for
reasons beyond his awareness or
control, tossed about like a cork
on seas of taste which change
tecause of forces which have
nothing to do with musical or
entertainment valuas — forces
historical, social, economic,
gastronomic.
High And Dry
As Mr. Dooley once put it: “On
with the old love and on with the
new; and off with that!†Even the
trained critic who aims at detach-
ment, “objectivity,†and all the
rest of it, cannot hope to climb to
a place that stands always high
and dry above the winds ard
weather of varying fashion,
Like as the waves make towards
the pebbled shore, so do many of
our tastes and preferences in the
arts hasten to a charted shore of
brief custom. Soon the tide shail
sweep us another way.
A “period†immediately pre-
ceding the one we live in is
always disowned and_ reacted
against by the leaders of “con-
temporary†thought. They try tc
rationalise the reaction, but it
has been determined for them. It
is enough to make the gods tired
of laughing.
When I was very young, Verdi
was patronised, if not despised,
as a composer lacking philosophy,
“criticism of life’, depth of
thought or feeling, a composer of
Italian opera, adaptable to the
street-organs of the day and
tenors. “There’s a_barrel-organ
playing somewhere in a London
“Come on! Come on!
This is no time to go
slow!â€
London Express Service,
street, As the sun ‘sinks lovs.
though the music is only Verdi,
remember these lines (botched in
my quotation) of Alfred Noyes,
Wagner And Ibsen
In those days Wagner was the
rallying-point of the highbrow.
He was, with Ibsen, in the van of
“progress.†Bernard Shaw, in his
brilliant The Perfect Wagnerite,
discovered almost a whole set of
Fabian essays in The Ring,
The Tarhelm was the Capitalist’s
Tall Hat with which he disguises
himself vo some semblance of
respectability. And now, to-day
Wagner is either a_ bourgeois
romantic (with the advance-
guard), or he is the red comet
which burned over a night sky to
announce the advent and iniquity
of Hitler,
The audiences at present
attending performances of
Verdi's Falstaff at Sadler’s Wells
revel in the whole of it, the weak
closing scene as well as the
brilliant and .masterful earlier
acts,
This opera, not long ago for the
connoisseur is “popular’—and no
doubt its appeal is broadened by

OUR

De wep Pills are
manufactured under stri hygieni
conditions and the roma
| form to rigid standards of purity,
the fact that English opear-
singers seldom touch a comedy in
music with light fingers, but must
needs run to farce.
With English opera singers, in
fact the line dividing comedy
from farce is as thin as the one
dividing sanity from lunacy. I
doubt, though, if for the mass ci
ordinarily musical opera-goers
Falstaff can mean as much as
Rigoletto or Aida, or whether it
really meant as much for Verdi
himself in his heart.
Acquired Charm
Where will the next wave of
reaction take us? “Our dates are
brie. (if we are in contemporary
favour), “thezefore we admire.
What thou dost foist upon us that
is old.â€
The clothes of yesterday look
hideous, consider those of the
Resvardian women, But, Victorian
fashions thought equally hideous
or ridiculous when I was a boy,
are at the present time aquiring
the “charm†of the antique.
Tennyson, sentimental and
faded not long ago, is sponsored
by the latest and most sophisti-
cated and unmelodious of whe
“modern†poets.
The wise critic, you would
think, would be on his guard
against any tendency to “debunkâ€
tastes of an epoch immediately
preceding his own.
On the contrary, when criticism
tries to rehabilitate the day before
yesterday’s genius, neglected
yesterday, it imvariably begins
with an assault on yesterday’s
taste and the reaction which has
caused tnis temporary nestect.
The Pubiic Mind
For example, in he* superb
book on Pope, Edith Sitwell 1s
compeiied to say “This general
blighting and withering of the
poetic taste is the result of the
public mind having been over-
shadowed by such Aberdeen-
granite tombs and
as Matthew Arnold.â€
But it is the fashions that
change, not the genius. Once a
genius always a genius. An artist
doesn’t get a reputation for
nothing, and Arnela came by his
because he satisfied minds and
sensibilities quite as distinguished
as ours or Miss Sitwell’s,
It isn’t a case of Wagner v.
“Verdi or Pope v. Arnold, but of
j Wagner and Verdi, Pope and
Arnold.

enough mix, complete with
shortening and everything to
make the crust—after tne now
inevitable cup of water had been
added.
The fruit was dehydrated.
Which meant yet another cup of
water.
One more cup of water added
to a powder and put in the fridge
provided the ice cream. The
rolls, a fancy kind popular in
America called Parker House,
were made from a mixture which
was ready for the oven — yes,
after a cup of water had been
kneaded into it.
The coffee — perfect — came
from a teaspoonful of powder
poured into a cup of boiling
water. For a change the maca-
roon mixture came out of a tin,
but as soon as the tin had been
opened that needed water, too,
and the beaten whites of three
eggs.
From this then it will be seen
that the only precarious effort
which went into this meal was
the beating of three egg whites.
Further investigation of this
housekeeping revolution disclosed
that the cup of water technique
has been applied to almost
everything.

- Miss Right
And Miss Wrong
A recent BBC ielevision venture
is a fashion programme for wo-
men which is quite new in its ap-
proach to the evergreen subject
of clothes. Viewers have had ex-
pensive dress shows in plenty, but
“Your Wardrobe†assumes that
the average woman wants practi-
cal help with her clothes. It is
fascinating, of course, for them to
see the latest creations from Lon-
don and Paris, which are obtain-
able at an astronomical price, but
most women want to know what
they can do to make their own
few garments fashionable and how
they can lay out the few pounds
they have to spend to the best
advantage,
The new series, which is being
arranged and introduced by tele-t
vision announcer Mary Malcol
hopes to answer these and mang
other questions in time. It in
cludes talks and demonstrations on, ;
how to make clothes at home and
how to’ mend and maintain them
so that they still look good after
hard wear. Where to buy clothes
; also dealt with and, a_ point
of majer importance, how to wear
them when bought. This is
where the twins come in. Bettie
Spurling selects the clothes for
“Your Wardrobe†and required a
pair of identical twins to be tele-
vised in each programme as Miss
Right and Miss Wrong, one wear-
ing clothes correctly, the other
making every sartorial mistake
possible. Her search became
known and twins in plenty wrote
to the BBC. Audition day came
and thirteen pairs of twins invad-
ed the grounds of Alexandra Pal-
ace. BBC staff thought they must
be seeing double, for every time
they looked at a personable young
woman they saw two of her. The
choice finally fell on Irene and
Rita Day, of Westcliff-on-Sea.

complete job in capturing her

celebrated beaming smile. The

Caped And
Belted Suits
By Joan Erskine
“Doubles†Make Their
Appearance In London
In 1947 the “New Look†burst
upon In 1949, the “New
Look†as such, had left us. And
in 1950... .?
Our skirts will

been accustomed
to see lately, The general line,
which has been getting steadily
simpler, is staying that way. The
classic court shoe can still curl a
derisive lip (or should it ke
vamp?) at its bestrapped and be-
decked rivals
A little thought is going into
the design of our headgear—so we
may have a slight variavion on
the cloche and beret. Our heads
will not be so much hugged, as
caressed, by cleverly folded and
draped hats which in nearly ali
cases accentuate one side of the
face only. With some ingenuity,
vhose of us who are convinced we
present two quite different profiles
to the world, will be able to hide
one or the other completely.
Now vhat* hair siylists have
done their worst for us, they ad-
mit defeat, though not in so many
words, by producing odd tails of
hair in contrasting colours with
which we can try to replenish our
sadly, depleted locks. (By the
way, I notice that these days,
articles on a woman’s “crowning
glory†are becoming fewer)
Year For Suits
1950 is the year for suits—and
the line is a belted one with
slightly bloused back and tight
skirt. The stricily tailored suit
has lost none of its popularity, but
the belted suit has taken pre-
cedence ai’ the moment. Almost
without exception, makers have
returned to the inset sleeve with
very slight padding. Belts are
usually in self-maiverial, some-
times tying in front, sometimes
half belted at the back only.
Occasionally a fine narrow leather
belt is used.
The suit, with its winged cape
descending to a point at the centre
back, is one of the most elegant
we have seen yet, and is suivable
for cocktails or afternoon wear.
Most skirts are very plainly cut,
with a lap seam at the cenire
front or a wrap at the side. Side
pleats, when introduced, are al-
ways hidden.
Doubles
The most inveresting suit news
is from Brenner Sports—who
produced “Doubles†for the new
season. This is an idea which
will be greeted with enthusiasm
by all women—for it provides two

Commonwealth Foreign Ministers in Col-

relations between East and West will be
unfolded. It will be the first occasion on
which Asian and European countries of the
Commonwealth meet in Conference on
equal terms. The staging of the confer-
ence in the youngest of the Dorhinions and
the selection of Mr. Sannanayk, an Asian,
to preside are significant indications that
there is to be a real attempt to bring the
peoples of the Commonwealth closer to-
monwealth, and Burma, outside the fola

_ ‘Brothers Of The Star’
Hold Annual Dinner
THE Loyal Brothers of the Star staged another suc-
cessful dinner on New Year night at the building of Miller
Bros., in Baxters Road.
It was the eighteenth anniversary of the organisation
—or as Mr. H. W. Springer of the University College of
the West Indies so aptly described it, the “organismâ€â€”
and for jollity and entertainment the function was the
best they had ever held.
“Covers were laid for one hun-
dred and two and things got goin
about 11 o’clock. It was not unti
5 o'clock in the morning that an
obviously satisfied gathering sep-
arated for their homes.
The rapidly becoming famous
Milton Quartette with their caly;-
soes and other songs provided a
large measure of the entertain-i
ment and were described by Mr,
Springer as “very good.†“Cer-
tainly the best I have ever heard
in Barbados,†he commented.
Several members of the organ-
isation contributed to the enter-
tainment with songs and fun
making.
Guests
Mr. H. W. Springer and - Mr.
f£. D. Mottley, M.C.P., were the
guests of honour, while the popu+
lar humorist Mr. F. E, (Tony)/
Hinds was in the Chair.
Mr. G. O. Bell welcomed the
new members. Referring to Mr.
Springer, he called him one of
the greatést West Indians of the
present day, and said that Mr.
Mottley was one of the greatest
public spirited men in Barbados
to- .
Ne resume of the work of the
organisation during the past years
was given by Mr. M. Bowen. He
spoke of its steady growth and,
said that beginning, with eight
members, its membership was
now well over one hundred and
fifty. Only three of the founders
were alive including their ever
active President Mr _ .Charles
Morris. :
Successful Fair
During last year they had car-
ried off a successful Fair and
Carnival at Queen’s Park, and
on the motion of Mr. S. P. G.
Beckles £20 had been donated to
‘the University College of the
West Indies, as the beginning of a
fund for Barbadian students who
might need financial assistance.
He hoped to see this swell con-
siderably this year.
Their show at: the Park had
been been successful, but this
might have been even greater
had everyone pulled his weight.
He certainly hoped there would
be no room for criticism in this
respect next time.
He was sure they were all
appreciative of the untiring efforts
of their President who was chiefly
responsible for keeping the organ-
isation up to the standard it had
attained that day. He knew he
was speaking for all of them in
expressing the hope that Mr.
Morris. would be spared for many
more years to carry on,
Keep Together
Mr. Springer counselled mem-
bers to continue to keep together
and rally around their President,
He had heard them referred to
as an organisation, but he would
prefer to say “organismâ€, as one
automatically become a member
after he had the honour of attend-
ing one.of the functions.
Their donation to the University
College was a splendid effort and
was very much appreciated. They
were doing a good work in the
community and he hoped as the
years went by they would be in’
a position to contribute even more
to its life.
Mr. Mottley said that he was
greatly pleased with the work
that had keen done by the Asso-
ciation during last year. With
Such energy and determination,
he was sure that they would con-
tinue to make a very worthwhile
contribution to the community
life of the colony. They could te
assured that he was prepared to
= his Support in any way pos-
sible,
The function ended with the
Chairman advising: “As men be
strong, face the New Year with
a bright hope for the future.â€
Kerosene
Has Come
THE kerosene oil shortage that
has been experienced in the colony
for the last few days will be re-
lieved within a few hours.
The expected oil tanker the
“Rufina†which sailed from
Trinidad on Friday, arrived here
yesterday about 2.15 p.m. with
a supply for the colony,
It is understood that unloading
began soon after its arrival and
that deliveries will be made to-
morrow if not indeed to-day,
e e
Fowl Thief Fined
“YOU are a menace to the com-
munity and like lovevine on a
tree that has not root on the
ground.†:
Those words were spoken to St.
Clair Hope of Greens Lane when
he appeared before His Worship
Mr. A. J. H. Hanschell yesterday.
He was found guilty of stealing
one fowl the property of Ruth
Green and one cock belong-
ing to Edith Thorne, He was or-
dered to pay 20/- in 28 days or
in default undergo 28 days’ im-
prisonment in one case and con-
victed, reprimanded and dis-
charged in the other.
P.C, 274 Osear Devonish said
he identified Hope in Busby Alley
with a basket on the ground on
January 7 containing two fowls,
one a hen and the other a cock.
He questioned him and took him
to the Central Police Station.

LOCAL NEWS
| Jamaica
| Elections
| Went Well
The Jamaica elections were
very well conducted and with a re-
cord vote, there was no disorder,
Mr. Simon Bloomberg Collector
General of that colony told the
“Advocate†yesterday.
He said that the system intro-
duced that all voters should dip
their fingers in a special type of
ink to prevent impersonations
was very successful.
Mr. Bloomberg came in on Fri-
day. evening by B.W.I.A. from
Jamaica for the Customs Talks
which will begin at Hastings
House on Monday. He is staying
at the Ocean View Hotel.
He said that most people seem-
ed well satisfied that the new
House of Representatives was an
improvement on the old one and
everyone was looking forward
eagerly to see how the new House
was going to settle down.
Expanding Rice Crop
The new corn; crop was al-
ready coming in and promised to
be as big as last year’s and there
was ample evidence that rice
growing would be expanded be-
cause of the continuance of Gov-
ernment subsidies.
Exports for 1949 would probab-
ly be a record and it would be in-
teresting to see what the final
figures were.
The Araguinabo textile factory
near Spanish Town would very
likely come into operation in the
latter half of this year and would
provide employment for several
hundreds of people.
Mr. Bloomberg said that it was
too early to predict what sort of
tourist season Jamaica was likely
to have this year, but the big
hofels on the north coast appear-
ed to be fairly well booked up.
THE RAINS
CAME
St. Joseph with a return of one
inch, 20 points, recorded the
heaviest rainfall during Friday
and up to 6 a.m. yesterday.
The next heaviest rainfall was
in the Parish of St. Philip with
one inch, 18 parts while St.
Michael and St. Lucy had the
lowest.
The returns were: City 37
parts, Station Hill 50 parts, St.
George 69 parts, St. Philip one
inch, 18 parts, St. Thomas 72 parts,
St. Peter 70 parts, St. Joseph one
inch, 20 parts, St. James 88 parts,
St. John 84 parts, St. Lucy 35
parts.
Customs Union
Final Session
THE final session of the Cus-
toms Union Commission will begin
to-morrow (Monday) at Hastings
House under the Chairmanship of
Mr, J. McLagan, and will prob-
ably last for about 8 to 10 days.
At this Conference which will
be attended by representatives of
the Caribbean colonies, the draft
report will be considered by the
members together with proposals
for the Common Ordinance and
Regulations, and a _ new tariff
structure and an agreement. with
regard to common rates of duty
in respect to the items scheduled
in the tariff structure.

Association forming a new union was preposterous.
He said that it was an indica-
tion that the Barbados Workers’
Union was succeeding too well
from the employer’s angle.
Mr. T. O. Bryan, Chairman of
the meeting, gave an account of
his stewardship in the House for
the past year.
He spoke of the introduction of
such addresses as those urging
Life Insurance and Life-saving
devices for fishermen; a graduated
system of liquor licenses and
abolition of the system whereby
wholesale and retail sellers of
liquors paid the same license; and
loans to Government Employees
for getting their own homes as
well as vacational leave.
A Scheme
Where the address relative to
fishermen was concerned, Mr.
Bryan said he understood that the
Fisheries Department was consid-
ering it. He understood also that
the Whitley Council was working
on a scheme in relation to his ad-
dress relative to the government
employee loans.
He regretted that nothing covld
be done to get the graduated sys-
tem of liquor licenses working for
this year, and promised that he
would not rest until the scheme
was put ‘into operation.
Mr. Bryan referred to the new
Union, the Caribbean Workers’
Union, That union was going
under a false name. What it
should be called was the Employ-
ers’ Union. It was a challenge to
the Barbados Workers’ Union, It
put them on their mettle to make
sure that there was no necessity
for any other union.
Mr. Bryan called on members to
give the West Indies a lead worthy
of such past leaders as Dr. O’Neala
and of such a present leader as
Mr. Adams, They were to see to
it that they were registered. They
were to be prepared and so
strengthen the hands of the Bar-
bados Labour Party,
He would ask them as a last
word to support Mr. T, W. Miller’s
candidature at the Vestry Election
in St. Michael on Monday,
Attendance
Mr. F. L. Walcott also paid tri-
bute to the attendance, and re-
viewed the work of the Party in
the House. He said that this was
the first time that the Order Paper
had ever been cleared, and called
it an indication of regular and
consistent work.
Since the Party had taken office,
the wages and salaries of Govern-
ment employees had been increas-
ed and back pay had been given
from April 1948. Among the
numerous bills that had been
passed was one dealing with leg-
islation for Ca-operative Societies,
the Petroleum Bill, and an amend-
ing Bill increasing the amount of
workmen’s compensation,
The Bill to give holidays with
pay had been turned down by the
Council because it did not affect
the type of employees in whom
members of the Council were in-
terested.
They had got through the Town
and Country Planning Bill in the
House. There was a good sum of
money in the Labour Welfare
Fund, They were not going to
spend all in playing fields. Some
of it was to be used to assist the
people in repairing their houses.
Tourists
Referring to the Tourist Trade,
Mr. Walcott said that certain mer-
chants and hotel owners were ac-
cusing the Government of not
being interested because Govern-
ment would not allow them to
import certain, things duty free.
If the Tourist Trade was such big
business as was claimed the mer-
chants would not want the Gov-
ernment to have a thing to do
with it.
The House had authorised the
expenditure of $900,000 on Sea-
well. They would soon hear how
labour was to be recruited for that
work.
Mr. Walcott said that the new
Union was based on what was a
Slight dissenion among some
workers. He appealed to all to
stand fast behind the B.L.P. which
was a continuous organisation of
working people striving to better
their standard of living.
Mr. M. E. Cox made Govern-
ment aid to flood sufferers the
theme of his speech. Those suf-
ferers, he said, were blessed that
the present Government was in
power, He recalled similar
tragedies that had overtaken the
island, and asked what Conserva-
tive Government had ever aided
victims by as much as one half
cent.
In this connection Mr.
praised the Secretary of the Hous-
Cox

Mr.
G. H. ADAMS,
ing Board, Mr, T. O. Lashfey, for
his untiring work on behalf of the
flood sufferers,
The new Union, said Mr. Cox,
reminded him of the fable of the
cats who could not divide a piece
of cheese among themselves, and
who called in the monkey to
divide it. By the time the division
was finished, the monkey had
eaten all.
Be wise as serpents, Mr, Cox
advised, How could the Electors’
Association turn Labour minded
overnight? He knew that the
workers would not be so foolish
as to fall invo the trap.
Mr. T. W. Miller took oppor-
tunity at this stage to appeal for
support at the Vestry Election on
Monday. He told of his struggles
in the past before he had become
elected to the Vestry and of the
battles he had had to fight after
he had been elected. He declared
himself a staunch Labourite.
Forty Thousand
Mr, Adams speaking next said
the first thing he would say was a
“good word for Tommyâ€, whom he
described as one of the most cour-
ageous men that had ever entered
politics, Mr. Miller had fought the
cohorts of Babylon and had won
through.
Mr. Adams speaking of the new
Union recalled the demonstration
that the Party had made after Mr.
Lewis’ dismissal from Central
Agency. If he was*not so tired,
he said, he would walk through
Broad Street some day next week
and he knew that forty or fifty
need would come along with
him.
Were the employers so foolish
as to believe that after the advan-
tages that the workers had
achieved through the Barbados
Workers’ Union that they would
allow themselves to be side-
tracked by some new union? The
attempt was a regular thing in big
countries with employers who did
not believe in Trade Unionism.
They always started a Compan
Union so as to lead sheep into
their backyard.
Here Mr. Adams recalled a
Union that had been formed after
the riots. What had become of it?
he asked. The whole idea of the
new Union was_ preposterous,
The rich merchants in Bridgetown
could hold their own with any in
Chicago or London; but when it
came to politics they were just in-

‘BUSTAMANTE WANTS
DOMINION STATUS
JAMAICA,
Mr. Bustamante, leader of the
Jamaican Labour Party, in an in-
terview with B.U.P. in Kingston,
said;
“We are determined gradually
to go forward to Dominion status
within the British Gommon-
wealth of Nations.â€
Fresh from his election success,
Mr. Bustamante, discussing the
problem of the sugar contracts,
said:
“When in England with the last
Jamaican sugar deputation, I told
Mr. Creech Jones that the West
Indies is not prepared to be de-
stroyed by England.
“If we are to be destroyed, we
can destroy ourselves by cutting
away from England, leaving our-
selves op@n to foreign invasion.
“But we are determined not to
be destroyed. England, where |!
am going next year, will get the
reason why Jamaica was forced to
pay high prices for British manu-
factures when England buys our
produce at the rate she herself
fixes.
“Sugar is the basic commodity
of the West Indies but Britain is
paying Cuba more for sugar than
Jamaica and the Government is
now dishonouring the pledge in
respect of guaranteed prices and
quantities of West Indian sugar.â€
To Go Forward
Amplifying his statement on his
determination to go forward to-
wards dominion status, Mr,
Bustamante added:
“But for the time beirig we are
demanding full ministerial rights
equal to that of the Capinet in
Britaim and I think this should be
the policy in respect to all colunies
with u constitution like Jamaica’s.
“A Governor who comes and
goes should not be allowed to
foist his wiif — which seldom
interests the’ masses or the coun-
try — on elected ministers who
know what is best for the economy
of the island.
“We must have a majority in
the Executive Council the
policy-shaping body.
“A Governor is too far removed
from the lives of the common
people really to know their re-
quirements and often acts on
advice which is against the
interests of the people in general.
“I know this from five years
experience of the Executive Coun-
cil — where f shall be for the
next five years — elected ministers
gealeulated at the British Prefer-|â„¢USt have the power to shape the
sential Tariff Rate and the amount | P®°P!e’s destinies,
“The only reason why my party
does not want self-government
Claims for remission of duty | now is because I feel it is wise
have to be submitted within one) Still

the arrival of the shipment on ot because that Government has
shown

fled that stabilisation of the prices

tinued in 1950.

Girl To Wed |
LONDON, Jan. 7, |
The girl, who once annoyed the |

Brotherâ€, Miss Elizabeth Ger-

ter of Lord and Lady Leconfieid
of Petworth, Sussex, is to marry
Major P. E. Bethell-Fox eldest
son of late Captain W. H. Bethell-
Fox and Madame Jean Guine ot |
Paris. The engagement was an- |
nounced today. Miss Wyndham |
was adopted by Lord and Lady Le- |
confield when she was a baby and
teken to live in the beautiful
Petworth house. Baby Boy—now
Captain Peter Wyndham—was |
adopted at the same time. Miss
Wyndham was assistant to British
Chief of Staff in Berlin, and while
there, was a target for Russian
accusations of “uncultured con- |
duct†towards them,
The incident occurred in her
office when Russians handed her
some amendments to minutes for
translation, Miss Wyndham said
afterwards that she made “ob-
servation that anyone would make |
when very busy.†She did not
direct it to any particular person,
and certainly did not intend it
for the Russians. In fact the ob-

made was probably something

Further Fall
In Oil Shares
Likely
LONDON, (By Mail)
Oil shares #n the London mar-
ket may fall still further as a re~
vult of Britain’s decision to reduce
her dollar oil imports writes
Ernest Eve, City editor in the
Evening Standard’s City column
this week.
Since late last year, he says,
signs of American over-
|
|
ket have been falling. For instance,
| Anglo-Iranian have fallen fromâ€
| 184/4% to 137/6, and Trinidac
| Leaseholds from 33/3 to 22/-.
Britain’s decision to cut her ol:
imports from the dollar zone on
phasises the fact that world oil
| production now outstrips _con-
sumption. At present British-
}owned oil companies are in a
| strong position, as the dollar
| shortage gives their oil an advan-
tage over dollar oil. But, says)
Eve, this will not last for ever.
He draws attention to the ob-!
vious fact that the Americans |
are unlikely to accept the latest»
‘developments without a _ fight.
Competition is bound to increase;
that nearly always means lower
prices.
Ernest Eve concludes: “The fall
in share prices this year is a
| partial recognition of the uncer-~
B.G. News:.
Financial Secretary
Staff
Presents Budget
Barbados
GEORGETOWN, (By Mail).
Financial Secretary and
Treasurer Hon. EF, F. Me
David, C.M.G., C.B.E., in his
Budget Statement to the Legisla-
tive Council at the close of 1949
declared that despite the heavy
additional commitments involved
by the adoption of the revised
salary and wages rates for public
servants, and the increase in ad-
ministrative costs generally since
Sterling devaluation, British Gui-
ana commitments could be met
without recourse to any form of
new increased taxation.
He disclosed plans to ease taxa-
tion on cycle meetings and ihe
Demerara Turf Club but stressed
this would not affect the financial
position. The estimate of expendi-
ture to be met from revenue
(ignoring some items of Develop-
ment Services) totals $20,491,606
and the estimate of revenue on
the basis of existing taxation
totals $20,881,728, yielding an
estimated surplus of $390,122 sub-
ject to any variations in taxation
during 1950 as may be considered
desirable.
It is proposed, he said, to amend
the Tax Ordinance so as to exempt
payments for admission to cycle
and athletic sports meetings from
the entertainment tax; and to
provide for the refund to the
Demerara Turf Club Ltd., of
amounts paid as lottery tax on
the sale of tickets in connection
with any lottery or sweepstake
where and to the extent that the
Commissioner of Income Tax cer-
tifies that the Club has been
charged, and has paid ingome tax
on that portion of the proceeds of
such lottery or sweepstake as is
taken by the Club and brought
to account as income
Significant
Another significant disclosure in
the Budget Statement was where
it touched on the recommenda-
tions of the Venn Commission, It
points out that the Sugar Duty
at the rate of $1 per ton on manu-
factured sugar was first imposed
in that form in 1942 for one year,
and has since been revived an-
nually for each year in succession
by means of the Expiring Laws
Ordinance. Subject to what fol-
lowed, it is proposed to continue
the duty in 1950,
Heic the Statement recalls tia
recommendations of the Vern
Commission that all the remain-
ing specific taxes falling directly
on the sugar industry should be
removed and that no new charge,
with the possible exemption of a
Land Tax on abandoned or un-
used portions of estates, be im-
Advocate
Correspondent
posed on sugar producing com-
panies. ’
The Statement adds that it will
accordingly be necessary to give
early consideration to this partic-
ular proposal, having regard to
the action which the sugar in-
dustry proposes to take in the
light of the Commission’s Report
and recommendations.
The Statement also mentions
that a review of existing income
tax legislation has been made by
the Income Tax Administration,
and preliminary draft legislation
is now under consideration by the
Law Officers. The amendments
proposed will modernize the local
legislation with respect to the ad-
ministration of the tax and permit
the grant of depreciation allow-
ances to industrial undertakings
under a more generous procedure
than at present is in force.
Emergency
“Colonial Emergency Measuresâ€
again appears in the Budget, the
total provision being $994,488. An
allocation has been made under
this Head for the continuation
during the year (though in a re-
duced form) of the Commodity
Control Organisation. The largest
allocation under this Head
$629,500 for refunds of Customs
Duties as a relief measure under
the procedure adopted in 1949
An unallocated $100,000 to meet
any emergency has also been al-
lowed for in the total provision.
The programme of Public Works
undertaken in 1949 was exception-
ily heavy. The vote under the
Head: ‘Public Works-Extraordin-
ur y" included in the origical
estumate at $600,000, was increased
>! revote and supplementary
provision to $1,082,000. Provision
of $800,000 has been included
uider this Head for works in 1850

33 Die In Mercy
Hospital Fire
$200,000 DAMAGE
DAVENPORT, Jan. 7.
Weary firemen tonight carefully
laid 33 charred bodies in rubble
bags at a temporary morgue
here. They were all women.
Four other women patients
untraced. Their remains are
thought still to lie inside the
blackened ruins of the three-
storey hospital building.
When fire tore through the
building—“the inside burned like
paper’’—screaming women batter-
ed helplessly at the bars to estape
the flames.
Firemen and police broke
through with axes. ‘Iney tound
some patients, huddled silently
together amid the flames, their
faces lined with bewilderment and
horror.
Some were dumb with terror.
Many, infirm of body or muna,
made no attempt to escape.
One woman was found, two
hours after the blaze broke out,
sitting on her bed on the third
floor. Part of the roof had caved
in on her,
She was partly sheathed in ice
from streams of water placed n
the building from outside. Tonight
she sat with other survivors in
another building, staring mutely.
“It Was Pitifulâ€
At the height of the blaze fire-
men in one section lowered six
patients down ladders — then
learned that four of them were
already dead.
Firemen described the pathetic
scene as they battled to save
women trapped behind the bars.
One said; “It was pitiful. Women
were dashing at the iron bars
crying for help.†\e]
“I saw several faint away and
disappear in the smoke and
flames.â€
Damage to vhe building, part of
the Mercy Hospital two miles
from Davenport’s business district,
was estimated at $200,000.
Fire Lieutenant Al Korando,
described the blazing building as
“a flaming Hellâ€, The interior
burned like paper.
Fire Chief Schinck said the fire
apparently started near the centre
of the second floor near an open
stairway and automatic lift.

THE MADDEST OF OUR
MAD SQUIRES
THE STRANGE LIFE OF
CHARLES WATERTON. By Rich-
ard Aldington. Evans 12s. 6d. 200
Pages,
GOD bless the Squire and his
relations. And if the Squire is quite
a bit mad, like Charles Waterton,
well, bless him all the same. Are
not mad squires part of the glori-
ous tradition of England? And if
they arc, does not Charles sparkle
with peculiar vivacity in the firm-
ament of dottiness?
Charles was a very pious Roman
Catholic gentleman of the first
half of last century, whose ances-
tral home was on a lake island in
Yorkshire. At Stonyhurst the
Jesuit Fathers had the wit to see
that his wild passion for nature
had better be canalised somehow.
They appointed him school rat-
catcher, He showed his gratitude
for this honour by lifelong devo-
tion to the school and the Society
of Jesus.
For his chief detestation (apart
from Henry VIII, “our royal goat’’)
was the House of Hanover. And
the Brown rat was, as Charles
firmly believed, introduced into
England by George I. To war
against it was, therefore, a cru-
sade pursued with the vehement
temperament of one who had
seven or eight more or less au-
thentic saints in his family tree,
It was not the only outlet for
his genius. When he went to Rome
he and a companion named Jones
climbed the facade of St. Peter’s
vo the very top of the dome and
left their gloves on the lightning
conductor.
A Poor Jest
POPE PIUS VII vhought this a
jest in the poorest taste and com-
manded that the gloves be re-
moved. But nobody in Rome could
be found to carry out His Holi-
ness’s command. Nobody except
the Old Boy of Stenyhurst.
It was in expeditions to the
jungles of South America, how-
ever, that Charles fully realised
himself. He ‘ramped through
swamps and undergrowth bare-
foot.
He captured deadly poisonous
snakes singlehanded. He made one
snake bite itself and watched the
result. It was disappointing.
Reputed climax of his career as
a practical naturalist was when
he leapt on the back of an alli-
gator, having previously marked
the “fear and perturbation†on the
creature’s face. “Should it be asked
how I managed to keep my seat, I
world: answer, I hunted some
years with Lord Darlington’s fox-
houndsâ€,
Charles cut the alligavor’s throat
and set about the business of pre-
serving its skin,
He had his »wn methods as a
taxidermist. Soaking the skin in
corrosive sublimate, he was then
abie to model the frame exactly
as he wished, In one of the master-

Many Accidents
HE HAD many accidents during
his travels, of course, He cured
them himself. Poultices of boiled
cows’ dung for open wounds. Self-
administered bleedings for any
form of inflammation, Calomel or
quinine for the rest.
Waterton’s later life was de-
voied to building a high wall
round his Yorkshire estate at a
cost of £10,000, The family acres
became a bird sanctuary. Within
the walls, the squire passed the
days happily making war with
arsenic and a Demerara tiger cat
upon the supreme enemy of man-
kind, the brown rat. The Hano-
verian rat!
Richard Aldington makes an
affectionate, humorous book out of
this odd life.
@KICHARD ALDINGTON was
born on June 8, 1892. After a
period of service in the British
Army in the First World War,
he became a reviewer of French
literature. He lives in France,
His first novel was Death of a
Hero, which appeared in 1929.
Has travelled extensively, and
his books have been translated
into most European languages.
Sonnets
SHAKESPEARE’S SONNETS
DATED. By Leslie Hotson.
Rupert Bart-Davis. 21s. 244
pages. oo ee
THERE is no more fascinating
piece of literary detective work
than Leslie Hotson’s hunt for the
date at which Shakespeare wrote
his sonnets,
The story is told in the first part
of this book, which contains other
material of almost equal interest,
including a superb true story of a
wild night in Elizabethan London
when truculent young men fall
foul of the watch, The whole flav-
our of Shakespeare’s England is to
be found in that gaudy episode,
But to the sonnet’s: How does
Hotson's date them? By relating
some obscure lines to some for-
— news-items of the poet’s
ay.
In Sonnet 107 occurs the line,
“The mortal moon hath her
eclipse endur’d.†Many have sup-
posed that this referred to Queen
Elizabeth. But in fact no Eliza~
bethan writer would dare to hint
at the Queen’s mortality. She was
the sun, never the moon. And she
certainly would not be “mortalâ€
which, in the idiom of the time,
might mean “deadlyâ€.

Hungary
Replies
To U.S.
BUDAPEST, Jan. 7.
The Hungarian Government to-
night handed a note to the United
States Legation here in answer to
the Washington order closing
Hungarian consulates New
York and Cleveland.
The note said that this action
in reprisal for the arrest and
detention by the Hungarians of
Mr. Robert Vogeler, Assistant
Vice-President of the Interna-
tional Telephone and Telegraph
Company, cannot alter Hungary’s
“firm standpoint that it will not
tolerate any foreign interference
with its internal affairs.â€
The Hungarian Government
took the view that the American
Government was trying to “en-
force by means of threats, with
reprisals on the one hand and by
means of promises on the other,
the release of an American citi-
zen arrested on the well founded
charge of having committed acts
of espoinage and sabotage.â€
in
It was reliably reported tonight
that Mr. Vogeler and his local
representative, Mr. Edgar San-
ders, a British citizen, will tome
to trial before a Huggarian Court
before the end of this month and
that the trial will be public.
Hotson too modestly puts it, was
the true meaning. The mortal
moon was the Spanish Armada of
1588 which sailed up-Channel in
a moon-shaped line of battle. As
a famous Elizabethan pamphlet
calls it, “a horned Moone of huge
and mighty shippes.â€
The year 1588 had for long been
awaited with apprehension. The
sun was to be eclipsed once, and
the moon twice Shakespeare’s use
of the word “eclipse†is no acci-
dent.
The upshot of the investigation?
That the main body of the sonnets
was completed by 1589, when the
poet was 25—about 14 years earlier
than the date more commonly as-
signed to them.
It only shows what can be done
by intelligent reading. Will Hotson
now tell us who was the “onlie
begetter†to whom vhe sonnets are
dedicated? He will.

HERE are some very handsome

surely, has British farming been
celebrated in so stately a volume.
Not that this should be thought

but easy reading. There could be

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.
New proposals for the solution
of the Jerusalem question, re-
stricting the areas, which would
be administered by the United
Nations, was being drafted by M.
Roger Garreau, the French Presi-
dent of the Trusteeship Council,
can New York Times reported to-
ay.
The Times Lake Success cor-
respondent reported that, under
the proposal, the United Nations
would administer only the area
containing the Wailing Wall,
sacred to the Jewish Faith, and
those Holy Places that are sacred
to Christians,
The correspondent quoted “un-
impeachable sourcesâ€, as having
said that the working paper would
call for the cession of the re-
mainder of the Jerusalem Area to
Jordan and Israel, in accordance
with the existing armistice line.
M. Garreau was requested by
the Trusteeship Council last
month to draw up the working
paper for submission to it, when
it reconvenes at Geneva on Janu-
ary 19. Yesterday was the dead-
line fixed by the Council for sub-
mission on view by interested
Governments and organisations.
It is supposed that M. Garreau
will finish drafting the paper be-
fore he sails for Europe next
Wednesday.—Reuter.

WAR DAMAGE CLAIMS AGAINST ITALY, HUNGARY,
RUMANIA AND BULGARIA
For the information of British owners of property in Italy, Hun-
gary, Rumania or Bulgaria, who have in the past stated that they
wished to*make a claim under the Peace Treaties in respect of war
loss of or damage to their property in those territories but who have
not yet completed the relevant claim forms, it is announced that His
Majesty’s Government are unable to maintain indefinitely the facili-
ties at present provided for the channelling of such claims to the
foreign Government concerned. Accordingly, an owner wishing to
make a claim who has not yet sent a completed form to Administra-
‘tion of Enemy Property Department, 32 Warwick Street, London,
W.1., should do so before March 31st, 1950, if he wishes His Majesty’s
Government to present the claim officially on his behalf.
British property owners who have suffered war loss or damage
to their property in any of those, territories, and have as yet taken
no steps to claim compensation under the Peace Treaties, should, if
they wish to make use of the facilities described above, write im-
mediately to Administration of Enemy Property Department for the
appropriate claims forms and explanatory notes,
The right of claimants themselves to make a compensation claim
direct to the foreign Government concerned remains unaffected by
the withdrawal of the facilities hitherto provided.

Mr. G.H. Adams
Addresses Queens’
Park Meeting
@ From page 9.
employing firms as the Vice-pres!-
ach: Tt we obliged to fail, and
the more it failed, the more peo~
ple would come into the fold of
the Workers’ Union.
There were some seamen who
had been misled. He was sorry
for them. When they found out
their mistake the Barbados Work-
ers’ Union would be glad to take
them back. But he hoped they
would not fall too hard.
At the Trade Union Conference
in London he_ had approached
American and Canadian Seamen's
Union leaders, and they had told
him they regretted they could do
nothing to help West Indian sea-
men at the present time. Where
the new Union was concerned, it
was possible that one man on @
ship might be discharged so that
one of the misled seamen could be
given a job. Then the new Union
would claim the credit. f
To describe his conception of
the new union, Mr. Adams also
resorted to a fable—that of the
mice who wanted to organise.
They could not find a leader and
then one mouse who thought he
was bright suggested that they
make friends with the cat and ask
him to be their leader. He could
not tell them the end of the fable,
Mr. Adams said, because not a
mouse was left to tell the tale.
When such things happened as
the formation of the new union,
they only showed that the Bar-
bados Workers’ Union was grow-
ing stronger every day. It was
making the employers pay out
more money, and they were there-
fore using every means to weaken
it.
The Workers
It was for the workers them-
selves to assess what hau been
done in the past, what was being
done at present and whether the
B.W.U. had let them dow†in any
way. They should ask theinselves
what could be at the back of the
new movement, and a _ little
thought would tell them.
The Electors’ Association had
seen that about 180 houses had
been moved, and they knew that
more would be moved. That was
going to cost money, and the
money would come from taxation
of the rich. They were afraid be-
cause they realised that the
B.W.U. was the most stable and
progressive union in the West
Indies
Mr. Adams promised that the
Party would put on the Statute
Book this year a number of things
that they could not deal with last
year. He said that men and wo-
men should have an equal right
to vote for the Vestry. Adult Suf-
frage was the only fair way of
voting.
Mr. Adams put forward a new
proposal when he said that a man
who could not read and write
should have two votes instead of
having no vote at all. If he could
not read and write it was most
likely because his parents work-
ing for small wages under past
governments could not afford to
send him to school. So he should
have a weighty voice in saying
whai' form of Government should
be in power, so that his children
would not have to labour under
the same disadvantages
Oil Bill
Mr. Adams, referring to the Oil
Bill, said that the doctrine that a
man owned everything up to the
sky over his land and half down
the earth under it was stupid in
the light of modern .science. In
order that the benefits from oil
might be distributed as widely as
possible, the Bill as originally
drafted has used the parish as a
boundary line. The Council had
amended it to 100 acres.
Mr. Adams revealed that the
Bill had been assented to last
Thursday night after it had been
passed by the House. The Attor-
ney General had lost no time in
carrying it up to the Governor
The Bill would be brought back
again, however, in the form that
the Government wanted it
A Prediction
Mr. Adams leaving the field of
local politics made a_ prediction
that the Labour Party in Great
Britain would be returned to pow-
er next Election. It would be re-
turned because it had kept its
promises to the people. If for no
other reason they would be re-
turned becatse they had provided
people in England with free medi-
eal aid and health services.
The local Conservatives knew
that the Labour Party here was
going to give the same Health
Services to the people of Barba-
dos, If oil was found much of
the money accruing from that in-
dustry would be used to that end.
In any case it would mean more
taxation of the rich. They knew
also that as soon as the Barbados
Labour Party provided the people
with such services that they might
as well pack up and leave the
island.

fHE Annual Meeting of the

inke place at Headquarters on

p.m.
In Camp
Fourteen members of the 26th
tarbados (Welches) Group under
toeir A.S.M. Mr. T, T. A. Smith
are in camp at their Headquar-
rs over this weekend.
Th‘s is more or less a training
mp fer the boys who ar?
roost'y Tenderfoots.
‘Extract’
i om “Spirituas Aaventure†in ihe
November SCOUTER.
| expect most of the Scouter:
ivre Can recall the day wheu
«.@y Mave stood and waved tare-
weil to two of their Scouts sei-
lug out on their First Cuiass
use, confident and proud tha.
‘ue boys were equipped with the
uwcessary knowledge, able to set
uid read a map, trained in
coservation, self-reliant and well
ave to care for themselves, So
u.e Cub Scouter, the Scouter and
ite Rover Leader may stand
wgethcr to see “the man†set
o. into the adventure of life,
confident and proud that he is
quipped, ready and able to takc
pace in the community. to
rve God and his fellow-men—
fou will do well to set then
fcrward on their journey
worthily of God.â€
“True men.’ Man is a tripod
(That is not a schoolboy how’er.
huis
and it has nothing to do with
the number of his legs) A tri-
pod is a thing which has three
.egs, and if it is to stand ‘irm
ad be of some use. the legs
must be of equal length. Man,
too, is made up of body. mnd
and spirit. In our training these
three—the physical, the intellec-
tual, the spiritual — each must
have its place. We must not
neglect one or another of then.
The boy must be strong in body,
alert in mind, and alive in spirit.
The spiritual side of a boy's
life must be developed and
strengthened at the same time
and in much the same way as
the rest of him.
You've all watched a Tenderfoot
or a Cub learning his first knots
Theree he is, with his grubby
little bit of string held in equal y
grubby hands (hands which seem
w be made of ten thumbs in all),
with the book open before him.
Using hands, tongue and teeth
he struggles on till the knot
looks right. Then he is helped
and guided by his P.L. or
Scouter. Later he exchanges the
string for a useful piece of rope,
and the knots are put into prac-
tice. Simple basic knots develop
into more difficult ones, the reef
to the slip reef, the bowline to
the bowline-on-a-bight. Then
later still these knots are put io
a real test— camping, rock-
climbing, pioneering. What pride
is his when he has crossed his
first runway or bridge and his
knots have held him!
All the while, benind all this,
he is learning to tie other knots
-—knots of character, spiritual
knots which will hold him firm.
the word “religion†comes from
the Latin “religo,†which means
“to bind with a rope.†Religion
is that which enables us to bind
vur life to God’s that we may be
neid firm in union with Him. By
religion we help the boy to bind
his life into God’s.
It is significant that the badge
of the World Jamboree at
Moisson was a carrick bend, a
knot used to join two ropes that
they may take exceptional strain;
and to tie it you lay one rope along
the other. Is not this a symbol
of a Christian faith? God in Christ
coming ‘into the world layfiug
His life by the side of man’s life
so that man should know His
strength is always available for
him, through the Church, through
the Sacraments, the Bible, througn
worship. Man can be joined ‘>
Him—the weaker to the stronger
—and can endure the strain and
serve Him,
There are, too, other “knots’
—first the simple laws of the Cub
Pack. then the wider laws of the
Scout, put into practice and test~-
ed as he grows up. So the boy
learns to tie those simple “knotsâ€
of character which, like all Scout
knots, will not slip, but will ho!ld
him firm in time of strain.

“British Honduras, Brivish by her
own choice, in the past has proven
loyalty vo the Crown. Now we
are forced to appeal to your
loyalty to us.â€
It continues: (1) Conditions

A Message
Mr. Adams said that his message
to them that night was that if they
had not done everything they
promised in 1949 it was because
one year had been too short. If
they remained true to each other
more would be done in ever in-
creasing quantity in the future
No one could stop them except
they themselves.
When they met again at the
end of next year he would be able
to tell them of the further things
that they had accomplished and of
further things they intended to
accomplish. He predicted that
when they met next year Minis-
terial Status would be a reality.
“Let us continue as we have
gone on in the past,†Mr. Adams
sa'd, “as a happy band of brethren
goiry forth and conquering.â€

Cost Of Living
The British Honduras dollar de.
valuation brought: (1) forty-three
per cent rise in food, clothing
wad other essential commodities
Lut no rise in the starvation wages,
further reducing the low stand-
erd of living, making it harder
‘o resist Communistic overtures,
(2) British Honduras dollars on
speculation, U.S., Guatemalan and
cther foreign currengies which
were hoarded for months are now
redeemable at vhe higher rate and
value locally,
The memorial continues “In
the days of slavery vhe masters
took care of the slaves. The con-
dition here is worse than slavery
which was abolished by King
William IV in 1833.
Only immediate full employ-
ment and living wages can avert
a crisis. We request, tha’ the
dollar be restored with the U.S.
dollar, and vne dollar as well as
pound investment be allowed in
svitish Honduras development.â€
“Subsequent memorials†are
promised depending “on the re-
sults achieved.†The Governor

rial, The demonstrators dispersed
