Addressing the annual meeting

“The average male is taking

Minister Probes Slavery Charges

“Men Are Chained

By The

MR. P. A. McBRIDE, A
terior, is to fly to the Nort
charges of slavery among
inhabitants.

Cattle owners and doctors in
the sparsely populated territory
are demanding that a royal com-
mission be set up to sift the alle-
gations,

These are that aborigines are
chained and herded into camps
without trial; are refused freedom
of movement} that money they
earn is taken from them by the
Department for Native Affairs;
and that “barbarous treatment by
the Queensland authorities” has
sehen the original 200 tribes to }
40.

Rough-riding cattle-man Wason
Byers, whose property of 5,600
square miles is as big as Yorkshire
and Lancashire together, charges
that aborigines are worked in con-
ditions of slavery.

‘it’s Piracy’

Hundreds of them, he says, are
employed for their food, tobacco,
and £1 a week. Their clothing
is marked off against the £1, and





|public book burning is planned,; “It is supposed to be a trust,”

The town’s youngsters will,says Byers, “but dozens of ac-

learn red techniques, too. A re-]counts remain from pre-war for

Jplica of the Communist youth natives who have never claimed

{N.S dom of movement. I flew one of

my stockmen, named Quandong,

to the town of Katherine for hos-

pital treatment. When he was

Croydon (London) Cat Club, is |“#ree months’ jail unless the man |

looking for ‘celebrity cats.”

He wants them for a London cat
show which will be held in Sep-
tember and which is expected to
attract more than 2,000 entries.
| Tne “celebrity cats” are sched-
uied to “star” in the show.
| Towe has one cat which was
| buried for a week under a ton
of coal at Croydon and he expects
that another, a champion which
| disappeared from a London show
and wandered about for six weeks,
will also be on show,
| Other features of the show will
be sections for the best household
pets and the heaviest cats.

The exhibition’s object is to
arouse interest in English pedi-
greed cats and te encourage the
export of British cat breeds to the
United States.

Towe’s wife, Elsie, became in-
terested in cat breeding in 1936
when the coup’e were given two
Siamese kittens as a wedding gift.

They now have ten Siamese cats
and so far have won some 200
prizes in shows all over Britain in
the last four years.—LN.S.

Dr. L. Thompson, who has just
returned fron, years of service in
the territory says: “I have been |
disgusted to see natives chained
together by the neck and interned
in camps without trial.”

The Australian Actors Equity
has taken up the case of an abor-
igine film actor, Henry Murdock,
who has a-prominent part in the |
film “Bitter Springs.”

Although the salary minimum
for white players was £14 10s. a
week, it is alleged that the De-
partment for Native Affairs would
allow Murdock to be paid only £6
and the department kept back £4
of this.—(L.E.S.)

LEARN TO
LOVE

21¢ and 42¢
LONDON,
Love, one of the oldest prob-
iems in the world, is a new sub-
'

}



at

ject the Cowley
Institute at Brixton,
Loncon suburb.

More than 1,000 students, aged
16 to 25, attend the Cowley
Evening Institute, where classes
in almost everything from wood-

southwest

work to ballet dancing and
drama are held.
The notty subject of love,

however, was not included in the
school’s curriculum until recently
when the assistant, principal, Mrs.
~. Shuttleworth, suddenly came
across a group of whispering
girls in a corridor and asked them
what they were talking about.

The girls said; “We want class-
es in love.”

“Come to my discussion class,”
replied Mrs. Shuttleworth, “and
you will learn all you want to
about love.”

Now the girls are attending the
class. There, with boy students,
they talk about their love prob-
lems and wider issues such as
setting down in a job.

Learning Love

“They are learning about love
the best way—by seeing where
others have made mistakes,” said
Mrs, Shuttleworth.

“We discuss everything quite
openly and call a spade a spade
without any nonsense,” she added.

‘At first there was a little snig-
gering when we talkea about sex,
but they have got used to discuss-
ing it openly and accept it quite
naturally.”

Mrs. Shuttleworth said
students are encouraged to
the class their problems.

“For instance, a boy has come
back after serving two years in
the forces to find his girl friend
has fallen in love with another
boy in the institute

“We discussed his problem in
the presence of the three of them
and though the girl refuses to go
back to him he now sees the situ-
ation in a more reasonable light—
as a result of thrashing it out
with other youngsters who have
been in a similar situation.”

The institute is run by the Lon-
don County Council. Fees are 21
cents per year for students under
18, and 42 cents per year for
others. —I.N.S.

Without Delay

THE Authorities have in recent weeks
performed the commendable task of regu-
lating traffic in the City of Bridgetown
and in controlling pedestrians in the use
of the Highway. Much has also been
achieved in cleansing the alleys adjacent
to Broad Street, and in making the City
cleaner and more orderly

The far greater and more pressing prob-
lem of the slums of Bridgetown has how-
ever not been tackled The streets and
alleys that lead into Milk Market and
Baxters Road continue as an affront to
civilised conditions and as a menace to the
Heaith of the community.

A Public Health Bill, after prolonged de-
bate and much amendment, passed the
House of Assembly and went on its way to
the Legislative Council in 1948, but that
body was unable to complete its discussions
before the General Election of that year
brought the Legislative Session to a close.
Nothing has since been done to remove the
blot upon the City, nor to tackle the Island-
wide housing situation.

No Government can afford indefinitely
to postpone dealing with a matter so im-
portant to the health of its subjects and
the happiness of its citizens. It should be
unnecessary to recount the harsh and tragic
character of the Bridgetown slums.

The Royal Commission of 1938 whose
report was published in 1945 described
the then existing housing situation in the
West Indies in words very applicable to
Barbados in particular and as true today
as they were twelve years ago. “In both
town and country the present housing of
the large majority of the working people
in the West Indian Colonies leaves much
to be desired; in many places it is deplor-

able: in some the conditions are such that
any human habitation of buildings now
occupied by large families must seem 1m-
possible to a newcomer from Europe It is
no exaggeration that in the poorest parts
of most towns and in many of the country

districts a majority of the houses is lar gely





made of rusty corrugated iron and unsound
boarding; quite often the original floor
had disappeared and only the earth re-
mains, its surface so trampled that it is
impervious to any rain which may pene-
trate through a leaking roof; sanitation

in any form and water supply are unknown
in such premises, and in many cases no
light enter when the door is closed.
The decrepit homes, more often than not,
are seriously’ overcrowded, and it is not
urprising that some of them. are dirty
and verminous in spite of the praise-
worthy efforts of the inhabitants to keep
them clean. In short, every condition that
tends to produce disease is here to be found
in a serious form, The generally insanitary
environment gives a rise to malaria, worm
infection and bowel diseases, leaking roofs,
rotten flooring and lack of light encourage
the spread of tuberculosis, respiratory
diseases, worm infections, jigger lesions and
rat-borne diseases, over-crowding, which
is usually accompanied by imperfect ven-
tilation, is an important agent in contribu-
ting to the high incidence of yaws, tuber-
culosis, venereal disease and, to a certain
extent leprosy.”

Playing fields are useful to a people's
well-being and enjoyment, but adequate
housing is necessary for a healthy life and
for a spirit of contentment. For too long has
the Government ignored the housing sit-
uation in this island. The floods of last year
have increased the difficulties and render-
ed even more acute the housing shortage

It is not however a matter on which Gov-
ernment alone should accept the responsi-
bility. The Labour Welfare Fund should be
devoted to the task, and Trade Unions
should seek to create a fund which could be
utilised for this purpose.

The situation is serious anc
terms of money will be high. But no price
can be tog,high which serves to ensure the
health of the community and to maintain a
minimum standard of accommodation for
the island’s inhabitants

To do otherwise would be to perpetuate
a system of affairs that casts grave discredit
upon the leaders of this island. Action
swift, vigorous and effective must be taken
and without further delay

The Spanish Empire-2

O deduce a good deal
ut the nature of a col-
onising people and their manner
of government by studying the
consutution of their towns. The
Portuguese, a commercial race,
t up wherever they went close-
ly packed stockaded fortress-
towns, designed to house and
protect the staffs of harbours,
dockyards and warehouses.
Equally characteristic were the
towns established a century late:
in English North Amer.ca—
mostly trim little market towns,
rural in appearance and demo-
cratic in their form of govern-
ment, their municipal affairs
being run by town meetings of
all the householders. The muni-
cipalities of Spanish America

an

Vow

eo.

offer a complete’ contrast in
every way. Both in governmen.
and in the details of lay-out
they were designed to follow

the models of Old Spain. Each
one had its wide, square plaza

at the centre, flanked by the
Cathedral, the law courts, the
prison and town armoury, ad-
ministrative offces and the

houses provided for judges and
royal officials. The arrangement
was as stereotyped as that of a
Roman camp. Town government
was a close oligarchy. It con-
sisted of a council or cabildo
usually of six or eight regidores
—town councillors. Big places
might have more—Mexico City
and Lima had twenty-four each.
These regidores were never
elected by the townsfolk. Nor-
mally the commanding officer of
an accredited conquest—Cortes
for instance—was empowered by
the Crawn to found municipali-
ties, and he would appoint the
first body of councillors, pending
confirmation by the Crown.
These councillors would hold of-
fice for one year, and at the
end of that year would elect
their own successors unless the
Crown intervened. The council-
lorships were thus kept within a
comparatively narrow circle of

conquistadores. Councillors
elected in this manner were
cal‘ed regidores cadameros—an-
nual councillors.









Usually, however, in the case
of important towns, the Crown
did intervene. In Spain through-
out the reigns of Ferdinand and
Isabella and Charles V there
was a steady pressure to restrict
the powers and privileges of
corporate towns—a very neces-
sary pressure, since corporate

towns in fifteenth century Spain

had been known to make war
upon one another. In the fif-
teen-twenties this royal pressure
among other causes, led to a
widespread armed revolt-—the
revolt of the comuneros, The re-
volt was ruthless'y suppressed,
and as a result muny municipal!
privileges disappeared. From that
time the Crown made a regula:
practice of itself appointing the
qouncillors in all important
towns for life. Now for a gov-
ernment as impecunious as the

Spanish government always was,
it was natural upon appointiag
a man to a post which involved
patronage and profit, to charge
him a fee for his appointment;
and from that it was an easy
step to selling the appoint ents
outright to the highest bidde:

These practices quickly spread
to the New World. By the mid-
dle of the century it had beeccine
the normal practice for the
Crown éo sell councillorships for
| life in all the more important
towns of the Indies. Whenever
la vacancy occurred the office
| was offered at a public auction

|by the Royal treasury officials.
{Councillors who bought their
|}appointments in this way were

| significantly called regideres pro-

| prietarios — proprietary council-
| lors; and a law passed in 1006
| authorised councillors to « select

l their own successors upon pay-
|ment of a further fee. Municipal
offices were thus regarded as
| pieces of property which might
be bought, sold and bequeathed.
| Councillors were not necessarily
householders. Sometimes a man
would turn up in the = Indices
| with papers entitling him to a
seat in some town council which
jhe had bought before leaving
Spain, The main attraction about
these town councils, apart from
the dignity involved, lay in the
municipal offices in the council -
lors’ gift. Every town of any
size had a chief constable, an
inspector, aa inspector of weights
and measures, a standard bearer,
a public trustee, various public
notaries, and so on, /s‘l these
officials received fees for tne
work which they performed.
The chief constable’s office was
a particularly lucrative — one,
since he drew a share of al’ the
fines levied from the offenders
whom he arrested. In short, the
duties of local government were
regarded simply in the light of
an investment A man paid

lump sum to the royal chest and
hoped to recover his capital with
interest in the form of fees
spread over a period of years.
As far as the Crown was con-
cerned, the whole organisation
for selling municipal offices was







BARBADOS ADVOCATE

By Dr. John Parry

In a lecture at Wakefield on Tuevday
night, comthraed from yesterday

merely a form of rather round-
about taxation. Spanish *heorists
ao not seem to have regarded
the sale of offices as in any way
deplorable. The system was even
defended on the ground that the
public auction of offices pre-
yented nepotism. Offices went to
the highest bidder, and not to
the viceroys’ favourites. The only
concession to the ideal of effi-
ciency in local government lay in
the requirement that all pur-
chases of offices should be con-
firmed by the Crown; and in the
case of serious complaint against
the purchaser of an office, the
Crown pledged itself to buy the
office back and sell it again to
somebody more suitable.

The town councils exercised
considerable local author.ty; they
regulated building, markets and
fairs, waterways, roads and oth-
er public works . They levied
rates and local customs duties,
and allocated grants of land.
These functions, of course, offer-
ed endless opportunities for
speculation and municipal gov-
ernment was undoubtedly cor-
rupt. Municipal corruption is
not unknown in other parts of
the Americas, but the chief de-
fect of the cabvildos lay in the
fact that they were not really
responsible to anybody for their
actions. There was no local
electorate. People who thought
themselves aggrieved by the lo-
cal cabildo had to go to the
courts for redress, and might not
receive a very sympathetic hear-
ing because the cabildos them-
selves appointed the municipal
magistrates—the justices of the
peace, as we should say.

I have gone into this question
of local government in some de-

tail because the town councils
are the only institution in the
colonial administration which

were open to Spaniards born in
the colonies. Most higher offices
in the colonial bureaucracy were
reserved for royal officials sent
from Spain, who returned to
Spain on completing their turn
of office. It was only in the town
councils that the Creoles as
American-born Spaniards. were
called—could get any practice or
training in politics or adminis-
tration. Naturally the political
training offered by the town
councils was of a very limited
nature,

These facts are of first import-
ance in understanding the later
history of Latin America, and its
divergence from that of English
America. In the North American
colonies and in the West Indies
there were almost from the be-
ginning legislative assemblies
with wide powers, including the
essential power of voting direct
taxes. The necessary foundations
for responsible self-government
were laid at an early date, and
in the eighteenth century when
the thirteen colonies

revolted
they had mature instruments of
government all ready to take
over. .

In Latin America none vu* these
things happened. All important
decisions and many unimportant
ones were made in Madrid. They
were promulgated by Royal de-
cree and enforced by a highly bu-
reaucratic and (at least on pa-
per) highly centralised imperial
administration. Taxes were le-
vied by decree, not voted. Con-
sequently when as a result of a
variety of circumstances the La-
tin American colonies in turn
revolted and the royal bureau-
cracvy disappeared, there was no
established authority in the In-
dies except a number of narrow
municipal oligarchies whose in-
terests were local and particular-
ist, and whose political training
was confined to matters of the
parish pump order of importance.
The cabildos were to play a lead-
ing part in the assertion of in-
dependence, but they proved to
be of very little use in organising
independence on a national scale

Independence is another story.
It remains in this lecture to
describe the central and pro-
vincial administration as it ex-
isted in the sixteenth and sev-
enteenth centuries. Because this
administration was bureaucratic
and centralised, we must not as-
sume that it was necessarily in-
competent; it was not. It was
extremely conscientious, certainly
in intention and often in fact. It
was reasonably competent and :n
some respects unusually humane
and enlightened by the notions
of the time. Its servants were
for the most part astonishingly
loyal. Unlike the minor loca
and municipal officials, the offi-
cers and judges in the higher
ranks of the colonial service
were appointed and paid by the
Crown, They did not buy their
offices.

The most obviously important
of the colonial officials were the
viceroys. In the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries there were
two vice-royalties, Mexico and
Peru. In the eighteenth century,
as newer parts of the Empire








1 for a term of years



grew to prosperity and import-
ance, two more vice-royalties
were added, Buenos Aires and
New Granada or Colombia. These
cffices, though less sought after
than European governorships such
as that of the Netherlands, were
positions of great dignity and
commanded very high salaries.
They were nearly always heid by
Peninsular Spaniards (there were
only three exceptions) and they
maintained lavish and no doubt
expensive courts. Their palaces
in Mexico and Lima are still the
seats of government. In those
capitals are huge baroque build-
ings, evidence of a glory now
slightly faded and moth-eaten.
The viceroys were supposed to
supervise the whole machinery
of government in their areas;
they were both civil governors
and military commanders-in
chief, responsible both for ad-
ministration and defence, and in
appearance their authority was
almost absolute. The Spanish
Crown, however, was always
deeply suspicious of high offi-
cials in remote places, and par-
ticularly suspicious of officials
of the noble and military caste,
a suspicion no doubt inherited
from feudal times. There were
good reasons for this. Spaniards
as a nation had, and still have.
a strong tendency to faction and
separatism which was restrained
only by fierce and personal Icy-
alty to the King. The Crown
could not risk the establishment
of rival kinglets in the ([ndies,
so the Viceroy’s office, in theory
so powerful, was hedged with
restrictions.

In the first place the Viceroy]
normally. held office for only |
three years, so that he had no
time to establish personal loyal-
ties and to make himself the
head of an independent faction.
Secondly, the .Viceroy nad no
means of rewarding his follow-|
ers and supporters, except out cf
his private income. He had no}
patronage worth mentioning since |
all places of profit were either |
filled by appointment in Spain
or sold by the Treasury officials |
in America, the Viceroy merely
confirming the sale. The Viceroy,
morever, had only a very limited
power to spend Government
money without special authorisa- |
tion from Spain. The colonies
did not have a separate budget,
and there was a large staff of

Treasury officials who took care
to prevent any unauthorised
expenditure. Thirdly, the Vice-

roy’s military authority, in theory
absolute, was in practice largely
illusory. Apart from naval
patrols in the Caribbean, there
was until the eighteenth century
no permanent armed force in the
colonies. The Viceroy had to
rely in a crisis upon a militia
manned by the Spanish colonists,
and although this was efficient
enough to put down Indian ris-
ings or to deal with frontier wars,
it was obviously useless for
enforcing the royal will against
the wishes of the colonists them-
selves. Here again the analogy
of Virginia or the British West
Indian islands comes to mind.
Finally, the strangest feature of
the viceregal authority was that
the Viceroy was bound to take
advice in all except military
matters, not from a political or
executive council, as. in the
Britteh colonies, but from the
judges of the Appeal Court of
bis province, the audiencia, and
anybody who thought himself
aggrieved by viceregal aetion had
a right of appeal to this court.
The whole arrangement was
carefully designed to prevent any
Viceroy from carrying out a
vigorous or independent policy.
and it must have been extremely
galling to an energetic adminis-
trator. It is fair to add that some
Viceroys did, in fact, carry out
energetical and salutary reforms,
but for this they needed the sup-
port of the audiencias.

The same general rematks
apply also to the provincial gov-
ernors and to the smaller fry,
the city governors or corregidores.
The curtailment of the powers of
colonial governors was progres-
sive; and it is worth noticing
that a rather similar curtailment
is going on in most British col-
onies today, what with the
Colonial Office on one hand and
elected legislatures on the other,
governors have to mbve with
care, if they move at all; and so
it was, though for different
reasons, in Spanish America.

I have aireaay mentioned the
Royal Treasury organisation.
This comprised a separate corps
of salaried officials appointed
from Spain, like the Governors,
Their prin-
cipal duties were collecting all
taxes and tributes due to the
Crown, and arranging for ship-
ment to Spain. The main source
of revenue was, of course, the
silver tax, usually a flat fifth of
all silver mined in the Indies.
This silver was collected at the
mines, and there was an elab-
orate system of weighing and
stamping to prevent the shipment
of untaxed silver.

Pay-Packet News From —
The Empire '

Where No Man Need Make
Less Than £10 A Week

By Dan Taylor

TASMANIA, they say has the friendliest!
people and the pleasantest climate in the
Empire.

But it has another claim to fame. In the
north of this lovely island there is a district
called Stanley.

And here, as far as I car: find, they make
the-hizhest sterling incomes in the Empire,
as a community.

HOW THEY Do IT

In Stanley no man need draw less than
£10 a week. Many make double that.

How do they do it?

The farmers market their potatoes
through a producer-merchant scheme.

Fishermen have a profit-sharing arrange-
ment with their crews, by which each man
can get up to £20 a week.

Timbermen band together in groups of
five and share the proceeds of their work.

The more a man produces — the more
money he takes home.

NO MINIMUM

Let us see what they are doing elsewhere.

Latest figures from Canada show that the
average worker’s weekly pay-packet holds
between £14 and £415. There is no national
minimum—agreements. go by province and);
industry. é

But it is easy to see from the average figure} %
that even. unskilled men must get high]%
wages, while highly skilled men are really|}
in the money.

I have just had news of an ordinary Brit-
ish family who arrived in Brisbane, Austra-
lia, and—12 of them working (four women)
—averaged £90 a week between them.

Of course, Australia has just introduced
a new basic minimum wage.

It ranges from £6. 7s in Queensland to
£6. 15s. in New South Wales.

LIVING COSTS

These rates form the foundation of all
wages—for Australia has been fixing wages
in the light of what industry can afford to
pay. If industry flourishes — so does the
worker.

And don’t let them tell you that Austra-
lian prices soar above ours.

How do European workers fare out in
Africa?
Well, as an example, European miners in|
Northern Rhodesia have been earning an
average of £80 a month—plus bonus.
True, with those earnings go high expenses; |
but with the expenses go living standards not |
even dreamt of by the miners back home.
Then again, in Uganda, Indian carpenters | }
and masons are making £40 a month—and'}
more.—L.E.S. :

Salvaging
Sunken Yawl
Has Started

Salvaging of the French Yaw!
“Potick,” which was for the
four months submerged in
inner basin of the Careenage
Was started yesterday

Schooners “Marea Henrietta’
and C.M.W. “Ipana” will do the job
while captains Selby and Comp
ton will supervise. ;

Parts of the schooner, such as
the booms and gaft, which were
easy to be removed, were taken
off yesterday by the “Marea Hen-
rietta” so as to lighten the vessel
for refloating.

Two divers were hired to dis-
conpegt these parts from the
vessel before being removed by
the “Henrietta’s” cranes. One of
Ahem when asked of the condition
of the hull, said that it was en-

the

tirely covered with black moss
and he could not determine its
condition.

To-day the workmen expect to
start on the refloating. They have
planned to raise the “Potick” from
the stern by rope and blocks at-
tached to the two schooners
When the vessel is sufficiently
above the water, a steel pump
will be brought into use to free
it of the water.

It is believed that the “Potick”
will have to be taken on dock
almost immediately after it has
been removed.

Now owner is Mr. James Mur-
ray whose bid of $550 at an
auction sale last week carried it
off.



Commonwealth XI
Will Tour India
3 West Indians To Go

LONDON, April 19.
The recent tour of a Common-
wealth Cricket Team to India,
Pakistan and Ceylon, proved such
a success that a second one has
been arranged for next winter.

Confirming this to-day, Mr.
George ; Duckworth, the former
Lancashire and England player,

who will again manage the team,
said that detailed arrangements
would be discussed with Mr. A. S.
De Mello, President of the Indian
Board of Control, when he comes
over in May to attend the Imperial
Cricket Conference at Lords.
The last side included nine Aus-
tralians, five Englishmen, and two
from the West Indies, but the next
team is likely to contain eleven
English players, mainly from
county sides, two Australians and
three West Indies. The team will

not be chosen until after the
M.C.C. have announced the party
to tour Australia and New Zea-

land.—Reuter.



Communists Claim

New Gains
HONG KONG, April 19.

Communist sources to - day
claimed new gains on Hainan
Gsland, contradicting Nationalist

reports that 5,000 out of 6,000
Communist invaders were out of
action and the remnant force
holding out in the hills.

The Pro-Communist Hong
Kong newspaper ‘Ta King-Pap,’
quoting sources in Canton, said the
Communist landing on Hainan on
Monday was the fifth and largest
since early in March and that the

Monday force, despite heavy
Nationalist artillery and ar
attacks, was beating inland to
join earlier invaders who have
linked up with guerillas in the
hills.

The Newspaper put out a
special edition _ acclaiming
“Another Communist Success.”

Independent Chinese reports here
said that 1,000 survivors of the
Monday landing had refused an
ultimatum to surrender, and that
Nationalist naval craft and
bombers were keeping close watch
on Hainan’s hopes to ‘prevent the
landing of Communist reinforce-
ments.

Max Bruer, Social Democratic

accused an_ illegal Communis:

West Germany abroad—*‘the most

could perform to the detriment

Lost

Sometime in 1937, the “Can-

aries” on which he was then a

sailor, was reported lost for three
months and 25 days before it was
found at Venezuela.

The “Canaries” had sailed from
Trinidad bound for St. Lucia. The
crew never starved a day, Cap-
tain Compton said. Every day
they caught fresh fish in sufficient
quantities to satisfy them until
they got to Venezuela

War stepped in and Captain
Compton, then mate of the “Can-
aries”, gave up his ship to become
boatswain of the American Trans-



port “QM114". He remained on
this ship for three years.
He had a narrow escape while

in this service. In 1945 when his
ship had put into British Guiana
for just two hours, he heard the
report that a ship was torpedoed
in the vicinity.

That same year he resigned and
went back home to be made boat-
swain of the “Albertha Compton

which has sometime ago been
burnt up while lying in harbour

at Port-of-Spain.

One year and six months he
spent on that vessel and then went
over to be mate of the “Ipana”
Six months later he sat the Cap-
tain’; examination and passed. In
April, 1949, he became master of
the “Ipana’

3 Experiences
Captain Compton told of three
experiences which he believed he

would never forget.
Once, this time as mate of the
“Canaries”, he and the crew were

out to sea for three days without

water. They were about 20 miles
from St. Lucia when thev is-
covered that all the water had
leaked cut oi the cask. When they
reached St. Lucia, neither of them
could drink more than gill

Some yecrs after, the “Albertha

Compton” yan out of water about
180 miles from Surinam with 113
emigrants from St. Lucia on
board. Luckily a ship came to
their assistance and gave them
water and food

On another occasion, his ship

was caught in a storm when hav-
ing sailed for a day on a voyage
from Trinidad to Guadeloupe
The bowsprit, sails and mainboom
were destroyed leaving them at
the mercies of the sea.

The ship, the name of which he
did not remember at the time, was
drifting for two days before they

could get assistance Another
schooner came for the weather-
beaten schooner and towed it

back to Trinidad

from mid-field.

In the second half, play was

again transferred to the Y.M.P.C’s
area, who were trying to decrease
the lead. Notre Dame however In-
creased the score, when Daniel at

nets after receiving a pass from

the right wing. The final blast
