Of The Year

By Joan Erskine

THE past few years have seen
a startling improvement in textiles
of every kind. During the war,
pure silk and fine linen disappear-
ed, but in their place rayon mIx-
tures appeared. Rayon has the
advantage of looking like almost
any fabric—it can be woven to
resemble corduroy, crepe, line and
so on.

But one fabric outstripped ail,

the others. Nylon, a man-made
yarn, is a_ revolution in fabric
manufacture. I unhesitatingly

choose it as the fabric of the year.

Nylon stockings are known sim-
ply as ‘nylons’. But apart from
gossamer stockings, do you know
how many kinds of nylon fabric
at present exist? There are voiles,
chiffons, marquisettes, nets, and
other lightweight materials, satins
and taffetas, piques and poults in
the slightly heavier cloths, and
nylon tricots, The latter are knit-
ted fabrics, made in open-stitch
patterns, particularly suitable for
underwear.

Sometimes nylon is combined
with silk, rayon and worsted, to
make special mixture fabrics.

The popular prejudice against
wearing nylon next to the skin—
because it felt cold—is now old-
fashioned. The new fabrics are
specially designed for lingerie.

As there are now nylon collars,
cuffs, evening shoes, umbrellas,
raincoats, hats, corsets, brass-
ieres and socks, what are we 10
expect in the next fifty years?
Shall we find ourselves encased in
heat-resisting, damp-resisting,
Wellsian rubber suits, or clad in
a filmy skirt and little else be-
sides?

Publie Service

THE necessity for Public Utility Boards
in this island must have been appreciated
by everyone since the great public incon-
venience caused by two of the main ser-
vices within recent months. The Govern-
ment is still in the process of modernising
the waterworks system which it took over
from the Bridgetown Water Company at
the beginning of the century and the Bar-
bados Electric Corporation founded in 1914
as a private concern is still apologising to
the consumers for its inability to generate
enough power.

Tt is not now necessary to describe in
any detail the difficulties which the Elec-
tric Company has endured owing to war
conditions and the inability of English
yesh at manufacturing firms to supply the much
oie needed equipment, neither is it necessary
; to repeat the disadvantages under which
ree people lived who had gone to new resi-
dential areas. The continuance of these
sources of annoyance serves to emphasise
the point.



Two years ago it was suggested that
there should be Public Utility Boards in
Hie this island appointed by the Government.

1" In setting out the details of the suggestion

it was pointed out that the Boards need
1 not be constituted of personnel from the
Legislature alone. People with the requi-
site knowledge should be invited by the
Government to become members of these
Boards and in this way the community
would benefit from their specialised know-
ledge.

It may be that this suggestion was turned
down because at the time the British La-
bour Government had embarked on its
nationalisation programme and the Bar-
bados Labour Party who had then come
into power and was responsible for the
conduct of Government business, hoped
and threatened to carry out a similar pro-
gramme in this island.



The creation of Public Utility Boards is
eat not intended to be a forerunner to nation-
4 alisation. It is intended to ensure that the
best-service should be given to consumers
who pay for the commodity and to guard
against inefficiency of those, services.

The present condition of the waterworks

aie ; and the electric services are hampering
other forms of business which are of great

advantage to this island. The lack of an

adequate supply of water has to a great

sj extent limited irrigation of crops and Bar-
aig bados being an agricultural community, it
e can well be imagined the potential loss
ih from this source. The lack of electric

At ; power affects the many small businesses
“ on which thousands of individuals depend
for support for their families; but in addi-
tion, it must disrupt the services of the ice
companies and the hotels and guest houses.
This is a poor advertisement for an island
which is attempting to encourage tourists
and where huge expenditure has been un-
dertaken in an effort to accommodate
a which will line Barbados with the
igger cities of the world.

Bridgetown aims at being a modern city;
but the present state of public services can
hardly expected to give the city the
right to be included in such a category.
In the past there should have been greater
supervision of Government-owned services
before any attempt was made to censure
other undertakings.

It also seems obvious that a Corporation
entrusted with supplying the community
with electricity, needs adequate capital in
order to extend its network over the whole
island; for it is only by expansion that the
ridiculously high rates charged for electri-
city is likely to be reduced. These condi-
tions should no longer be allowed to exist.
And one method of effecting desirable

es is for the Government to enact
legislation creating Public Utility Boards.

would be but the beginning of a long
list of necessary reforms which could not
be but beneficial.

The Stately Homes

Are

By FRED DOERFLINGER LN-S. Staff Correspondent

LONDON, (By Mail)

Ever-increasing numbers 0
Britain’s nobility are being forced
by high taxation, crippling deatn
duties, the new Town and Coun-
try Planning Act, high mainten-
ance costs and staffing problems
to either throw open their stately
homes to the tourist trade, sell
part of their estates to keep their
mansions going or even put their
“castles” on the market.

Other aristocrats are giving
their estates to the nation be-
cause they can no longer keep
them up and do not wish to see
them broken up.

The peers of to-day are threat-
ened with becoming the paupers
of tomorrow.

The announcement by the
King’s wealthy nephew, the Earl
of Harewood, that heavy death
duties will force him to sell a con-
siderable portion of his 24,000
acre estate in Yorkshire at public
auction this summer, marks the
virtual end of the hey-day of the
landed aristocracy in Britain.

Just as the monarchy and the
pageantry of the Court has en-
riched the life of the nation, on a
lesser scale rural life has been
rendered colorful by the hundred
and one activities which centered
round the manor, house.

When the Earl’s father died in
May 1947, ns left an estate valued
only at $1,537,640. To meet the
death duties on this of $509,640.
40 the present Lord Harewood is
forced to sell much of his land.
Back in April 1948 four farms
on the estate had already been
sold privately.

Harewood, who married Aus-
tralian commoner Marion Stein
last autumn, has also found a job
aS music critic on a national in-
tellectual weekly magazine.

Harewood has been only one of
the many peers of the realm to
be hit by high taxation and death
duties. The men whose job is
to sel] the stately homes of Eng-
land are doing brisk business to-
day.

More and more castles, man-
sions anq large estates are leav-
ing the hands of those living on
invested incomes

The big estates have been sell-
ing up 250,000 acres annually in
the past 30 years and the sales
are increasing. Scores of castles
and manor houses have been sold
up with them.

In 1948 Rongemore Hall, Bur-
ton-on-Trent, seat of the Baroness
Burton, was s7ld. In 1949 the
|family treasures were sold up as

CASES IN COURT by Sir Patrick
Hastings K.C. (Heinemans

15/-).

“There are few things more
enthralling than a trial in the
Law Courts,” writes Sir Patrick
Hastings “However trivial or un-
important may be the issues, to
the parties immediately concerned
they are vital, and, above all the
human troubles that are brought
to light, give, perhaps if only for
posterity, a real picture of the
times at which the trials took
place. After all, the libel action
of to-day would probably have
been a duel a hundred years ago.”
To that I would add that few
places provide a better source for
a story teller than the Courts.
Sir Patrick Hastings has written
of some of the most interesting
cases that he has been connected
with in his many years at the
| Bar, and, incidentally, has pro-
duced one of the best collections
of short stories that I have read
for a very long time. You have
been and still are reading them
every Monday in the Evening
Advocate.

The story that J] enjoyed most
was called “The Stockbroker and
the Yo-Yo”, the account of a
libel action inst?tuted by Mr.
Blennerhassett, a prosperous and
highly respected member of the
London Stock Exchange. An
advertisement for Yo-Yos which
appeared in the “Bvening Stand-
ard” in 1932 was the cause of all
the trouble.

Glenborrodale Castle, the Scot-

was sold recently and Hunstanton
Hall, near the King’s Norfolk
estate, which has been in the
hands of the le Strange family
for nearly 1,000 years, was parted
with because of the “impossible
burden of taxation.” Nearly
every month another stately home
is put on the market.

The Earl of Shrewsbury, premier
Earl of England, who last year

passers-by from @ stall outside
his mansion watched an auctioner
sell about a third of his estate

Nearly 2,200 acres embracing 13

family since 1170 and the remain-

Lord Shrewsbury termed present
day taxation “merciless” and said
that high taxation, the capital
levy of 1947 and the high cost
of repairs had necessitated the
sale.

Today he still lives at Ingestre

farm of 270 acres with a herb of

“Now the writer of the adver-
tisement had no idea that there
was in fact a Mr. Blennerhassett,
but he happened to mention that
his Mr. Blennerhassett lunched
at a well known City restaurant
call Pimm’s. The real Mr. Blen-
nerhassett had in fact lunched at
Pimm’s several times, and he was
ragged so much by his colleagues,
who professed to see in the ad-
vertisement the unheppy life-
story df their fellow member, that
he foolishly decided to institute
an action for libel.

The ‘plaintiff's counsel was
able to point out that Mr. Blen-
nerhassett was the only stock-
broker of that name and that he
lunched at Pimm’s: there the
similarity seemed to cease. In
order to suggest some possibility
of actual damage, he argued
that, since stockbrokers are not
allowed to advertise, the publi-
cation complained of might have
been taken to imply that his cli-
ent was breaking the rules of the
House by himself inserting the
advertisement in the “Evening
Standard.” “Although” Sir
Patrick adds “precisely in what

the whole case. One of the ques-
tions was “Is the portrait in the
advertisement in the least like
you?”” Mr. Blennerhassett could
not very well say “Yes,” having
regard to the straw in the hair;
for the purpose’ of the action he
might not like to say “No”; so he
asked if he need answer the ques-
tion. However it was soon shown
that the only way he resemblea

damage, and so he lost the case.

IN FLOOD QUESTION

The St. Jaseph Vestry yesterday

iscussed the problem of repairing
Ln whien were en
oS a e high winds of August
Ss emaber 1 and decided | to
ask Mr. Acams and Mr. Smith,
the parish’s representatives
House of Assembly, to put

in

at case to Government. It
as held that the money given
7 repairs of damaged houses

i uate.
ot ee hated December 20 was

from the Colonial Secre~-
tary's Office. It stated:

ij am directed to inform you
that the Legislature has made
available the sum of $15,000 for
the purpose of meeting the cost
of repairs to houses damaged in
the storm of the nights of August
31 and September 1. The amount
made available is not intended
to cover all claims as the Govern-
ment has not yet decided what
method should be used in regard
to the settlement of certain of the
claims received by it.

An amount of $2,965 is made
available to you under the at-
tached voucher for the purpose
of paying the claims listed in the
attached schedule. The schedule
shows the name of the claimant,
the address and the amount as-
sessed by the Colonia] Engineer’s

ment in conjunction with
the authorities of the parish. You
‘are authorised to have repairs
effected at a cost not exceeding
‘the estimate of the Colonial En-
eer or to make direct payment
to the claimants on your being
satisfied that required repairs
have been completed. There
would be no objection to your
making payments “‘on account” to
enable claimants to purchase re-
pair material.

It is not at present proposed
that claims by owners of houses
who were not occupying their
houses should be met, and if any
of the claimants listed was not
in occupation of his house you
should not meet the claim and
advise me to that effect.

Estimate For Each House

Mr, A. Carter, Churchwarden,
said that according to the letter,
the Colonial Office provided an
‘estimate for each house and in
some cases, the inspector who
had visited the parish, overesti-
mated the damage while in others
his estimates were decidedly
under-estimated.

He said that up to the present
he had repaired 30 houses at the
cost of $1,985. He pointed out
that these 30 houses were repaired
with the money estimated for each
but in his opinion some were
badly in need of further repairs.
‘He said that in one case Govern-
ment had estimated the damage
fo one Mayers’ house av $60, but
Mayers was an employee of Friz-
ers and Frizers spent over $150
to repair Mayers’ house. He said
that he would now hand over the

60 to Frizers, as part of the debt
which Mayers owed them. In
bringing up this he said that it
Bhowed quite clearly how the
Colonial Engineer’s inspector had
under estimated some of the
damage to houses.

Mr, L. R. Hutson said that in his
district he had seen Lisle Mapp’s
house which was also damaged by
the storm. He said that Mapp

as given $90 by Government but

“Hen his opinion this amount could

do nothing to Mapp’s house. He

pointed out that if he was in

pp’s position he would ask

“overnment to try repairing the

house with that amount of money.
Serious View

Mr, A, P. Cox said that he took

very serious view of the condi-
tion of these houses. He said that

different occasions he had

St. Vincent Schooner “Alna

about 40 miles to the East of St.
Lucia when it came into collision
with the 4,655-ton (net) R.M.S.
“Lady Nelson” in the early hours
of yesterday. The “Nelson” is
under the command of Captain
Roach.
Captain Telemaque told the

The “Alna Leotaud” was about
40 miles out to sea on its way to
Barbados from St. Lucia with a
cargo of copra, cocoanuts and
fresh fruit.

When the vessels collided, said
the Captain, the crew and himself
got aboard one life boat. The
schooner broke and sank imme-
diately.

The “Nelson” got back to their
rescue about 7.30 a.m. and took
them aboard with part of their
personal effects which they luck-
ily saved.

The six men looked none the
worse for their experience when
they assembled yesterday at the

A preliminary investigation
into the incident was being carried
out there.

Schooner “Alna Leotaud” has
made many a trip to Barbados
under Captain DeRoche with
copra and cocoanuts from St.
Lucia. It has not called here
recently.

Bodily Harm
Cost 30/-

DECISIONS of His Worship Mr.
H. A. Talma who imposed fines
of 30/- and 20/- on Alias Eugene
of Passage Road, St. Michael,
were confirmed by Bheir Honours
Mr. G. L. Taylor and Mr. H,. A,
Vaughan of the Assistant Court
of Appeal yesterday. Mr. Talma
had found Eugene guilty of having
inflicted bodily harm on Leotta
Marshall on the first charge, and
of having inflicted bodily harm on



Yvonne, her daughter, on the
second.

The evidence was that Marshall
had her little daughter in her

arms when a dispute arose between
Eugene and herself, Eugene cuffed
at her and hit the baby on her
head and on her face, bursting
her mouth, Marshall stooped to
pick up a stone, and Eugene then
struck her with a piece of iron
across her shoulder.

prior to.this case. Their Honours
felt that gravity of the offence,
since Layne had been warned and

had still committed it, merited a
heavier fine.

TWO fines were imposed on

Mr. E. A. McLeod.

There were 2(;~ to be paid in

Arts And Crafts
Maintain High
Standard

CHILDREN from four schools
were among the fairly large
crowd that attended the Barbados
Arts and Crafts Exhibition which
opened at Queen’s Park yesterday
evening. Being held along with
the Arts and Crafts show is an
exhibition of children’s work, all
of which, could not be displayed
at the Annual Industrial Exhi-
bition for lack of space.

School children who attended
were from the Foundation School,
St. James, St Silas, and St.
Albans.

Where the Arts and Crafts show
is concerned, the standard of work
of past years is upheld. There is
a falling off in quantity owing tc
the fact that on this occasion there
are no exhibits from British
Guiana and Trinidad. This, how-
ever, has had the effect of giving
the room a suggestion of greater
spaciousness, which makes _ it
easier to take a step backward
and get a better view of a
particular painting.

Exhibitors include Mrs. White.
Mr, Ivan Payne, Mr. Briggs-
Clarke., Mrs de Kuh., Miss Arne.,
Mrs Macavity., Hon’ble Mrs, Myer.,
Mrs. Merritt. and Mr. Broodhaven,

Children’s Work

There is a good deal of children’s
work on display, unlike the case
at the Annual Industrial Exhibi-
tion where owing to lack of space
only the best pieces can be shown.

The Government Industrial
School was well represented, and
exhibitors from this _ institution

number :



carried off quite a
prizes and certificates of merit.

The exhibition opened at 4 p.m.
and closed at 6 p.m. Before closing
time however, an electricity cut
made looking at exhibits difficult.
The show continues today,

Both the “Gardenia W.” and

complete repairs to these houses,
and he was informed by the
Churchwarden that he should
wait a short while.

Mr. Carter said that he had told
Mr. Smith to wait because some
of the money could repair and
more than repair. the houses that
it was estimated for.

He drew an instance to the at-
tention of the Vestry where he
said the houses of Mary Hutson
of Spa Hill and Clyde Inniss of
Dark Hole were repaired and with
i money left over from these two
houses he repaired another house
which belonged to Violet Jordan,
also of Dark Hole.

Mr. Colin Williams, said that he
did not know if the St. Joseph
Vestry would get any more from
Government because Government
knew that the whole thing was a
racket.

By this he meant that in some
cases where peoples houses were
damaged before the storm the
same people were claiming that
their houses were damaged by the
storm.

Charge of The Job

Mr. Smith then said that the
Churchwarden was in charge of
the job. If he (Mr. Smith) was
to get more money from Govern-
ment, he would have to tell them
how many more houses needed
repairing and what was the cost.
He said that in his opinion the
Churchwarden was. going about
it the right way. First he would
have to fix what houses he could
before he could say how many
others needed repairing and the
amount it would take. He accused
Mr, Cox of placing himself in
front of the Churchwarden.

Mr. Cox said that in the first
place the Churchwarden had
made an estimate of $4,200 for 47
houses and Government did not
accept it. They sent their own
inspector to make estimates. He
said that it was left to the repre-
sentatives of the parish to go for-
ward and place the matter before
the Government. Mr. Smith and
Mr, Adams should go forward and
ask Government to send someone
to the Parish to see the condition
of the houses.

At this stage the Churchwarden
said that in the first place Mr. Cox
was talking about money and now
he changed his argument to that
of sending representative to see

The Churchwarden said that he

owners of Joes River had con-
sented to sell the Vestry a plot of
land for a burial ground. He
pointed out that this land had
been appraised by the Solicitors,
Messrs. Yearwood & Boyce, and
since the appraisement nothing
has been done. He said that it
was appraised at $830.
