WITH EGYPT’ | \£C Issue Unusual
KHARTOUM, October 24
Egypt’s heavy handed attempt
to unite the Nile Valley by abro-
gation of the Suez ana Sudanese
treaties may «boomerang if move-
ments going ahead in Khartoum
are fully developed.
Egypt’s main interest in the
Sudan is the water of the mighty
Nile River but her disregard of
Sudanese opinion is having the
worst possible effect.
Sayed Mohammed Ahmed Abul]_
Sin, member of the Sudan Execu-
tive Council has proposed to the
Sudanese Government to answer
Egypt's treaty abrogation by ig-
noring the 1929 Nile waters agree-
ment and simply taking as much
water as the Sudan needs.
The Sudan legal assembly meets
on Thursday and will take up the
ordinary member motion proposing
that the Sudan take as much water
as she needs because her present
annual quota is too small to permit
adequate agricultural development.
Under the 1929 agreement Egypt
is permitted to take 92.3 per cent.
of the annual Nile flow and the
Sudan only 7.7 per cent.
But the Sudan agrees not to take’
more water than is necessary for
human needs from April 1 to July
21, In facet, from January to July
the Sudan uses only water stored
from floods not touching the flow
and actually uses only two per
cent. of the annual flow.

Communists long were unopposed in their
months ago a powerful force
appeared also fighting for peace but on Anti-Soviet lines.
‘o-day the poster war rages with undiminished fierceness
and many believe the Communists are losing points.
The man the French Communists
iate most and who brought about
he reversal is Jean Paul David,
+ under and Secretary General of
th. Paix and Liberate (Peace and
Fre‘dom) anti-Communist move-

In plain colours and simple
words David's posters attack the
Communist sponsored “peaceâ€

financed by money gifts from anti-
Communist Frenchmen.
Answer To Red Propaganda
David Said: ‘I got the idea of
using posters and leaflets as the
most effective means of bringing
truth to millions of peoples when
I realised the havoc caused by
Communist peace propaganda
among war weary Frenchmen.
“In France Communists were
polling up to 30 per cent. in any

Face Polls Today
FOR 625 SEATS IN U.K.
. , LONDON, Oct. 24,
ONLY 1,362 CANDIDATES, the smallest number in
years, are running for the 625 seats in the House of Com-
mons in to-morrow’s General Election. This sharp drop
in the number of candidates is due to the decision of Liberal
and Communist parties to contest only a few constituencies
Both parties lost a number of deposits last year—a candi-
date must forfeit £50 if he fails to poll at least one-eighth
of the total votes cast—and apparently felt that they could
not afford the same financial loss again,

the Conservatives 612 this :

THURSDAY, OCTOBER
HOUSE AMEND 1945 SH
25, 1951
A Watchman Is Not
A Shop
Assistant
THE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY yesterday passed a Bill
to amend the Shops Act, 1945, in the light of making re-
commendations made by the Wages Board established for
Bridgetown Shop Assistants in 1950.
The Amendments are as follows :—
1. This Act may be cited as
the Shops (Amendment) Act,
1951, and shall be read together
with the Shops Act, 1945 (here-
inafter referred to as the frinci-
pal Act).
2. Section two of the vrinci-
pal Act is hereby amended by
adding at the end of the defini-
tion of “shop assistant†after the
word “apprenticesâ€; the follow-
ing words—
“but does not include any per-
son employed solely as a care-
taker, watchman, craftman or
domestic servant other than a
servant engaged in the cater-
ing trade.â€
3. Section eight of the prin-
cipal Act is hereby amended—
(a) by inserting immediately
after sub-section (1)
thereof, the following
sub-section to be num-
bered “(2)â€.
“(2) Notwithstanding the
provisions of sub-section
(1) of this section it
shall be lawful for a shop
to be opened for business
after the hour it is re-
quired under a Shop
Order to be closed on the
early closing day imme-
diately preceding Good
Friday and Christmas
Day respectively.
Provided that a shop
kept open under the pro-
visions of this subsection
on the early closing day
shall be closed on that
day not later than the
hour prescribed by such
Shop Order for an or-
dinary closing day.â€
(b) by *re-numbering sub-
section (2) thereof as
sub-section “(3).â€
Dr. Cummins (L) said that the
Bill amended the definition of
“shop assistant†so as to exclude
any person employed solely as a
caretakef, watchman, (craftsman
or domestic servant other than a
servant engaged in the catering
trade. It also provided (by an
amendment to section 8 of the
Act) that where an early closing
day immediately preceded Good
Friday or Christmas Day, shops
should be allowed to remain open
up to such hour as was permis-
sible on an ordinary closing day.
He said that he wanted to
assure members that lorry driv-
ers connected with shops were
shop assistants and that people
who employ them should pay
them overtime if they happen to
go over the 8 hours a day as was
originally stated in the Shop
Closing Act,
The Bill also sought to clarify
the position of a domestic ser-
vant, It referred purely to a
domestic servant who worked in
and around the shop and not. the
other domestic servants,
Mr. M. E. Cox (L) said that he
had pleasure in seconding the
motion made by the Hon, Senior
Member for St. Thomas. He was
approached on many occasions
by hands who work on _ store-
lorries throughout the island,
They made complaints to him on
the conditions under which they
worked and he told them that the
shop closing act passed in 1945
also applied to them.
Hard
He feit that it was very hard on
lorry drivers and hands to be
required to turn out to their
stores between 6.30 and 8 a.m. on
days, work during the day, and
then sometimes about 4 p.m.,
have to load their lorries to make
deliveries in the far out parts of
the island that same evening.
“Sometimes they get home
around 1 a.m, next morningâ€, he
said.
When the bill was passed, it
was said that no person would
work more than eight hours con-
tinuously. “That section was
specifically put in to protect the
people who work on the lorries
and vans. Yet it does appear
that the owners are indifferent to
that sectiorâ€,
Mr. Cox said that the lorry and
van people were found prowling
about at all hours of the night and
for wages that were meagre, He
was told that some men going
around on bicycles delivering
groceries were only getting seven
to eight dollars a week, and some
of them had to work both morning
and night, “It is inhuman when
you consider the long hours these
people work and the small wages
they get.†He was hoping that
owners would pay attention to
the Shop Closing Act and to the
amended bill.
The eight dollars per week
that were paid the bicycle riders
was no n.ore than what the em-
ployers would drink out at some
club a night or smoke out in
cigarettes a week. He was sug-
gesting that if they claimed
that if they had the interest of
the working people at heart, they
would make a change.
Mr. Goddard (E) said that as
far es he could remember, the
Shop Closing Act did not permit
overtime to be paid to shop as-
sistants So when the Hon.
Senior Member for St. Thomas
said that they should be paid
overtime, he must realise that
they would have had to amend
the act again before such pay-
ment could be made.
The amended Act alloweq shops
to remain open on to such hour
as was permissible on an ordin-
ary closing day when an early
closing day immediately pre-
ceded Christmas Day and Good
Friday. He was quite glad to see
that they sent down that amend-
ment to the original Bill because
the clerks themselves liked to
see that they gave good service
to the general public on those
days especially.
Opening Shops on the days
coming immediately before
Christmas and Good Friday help-
ed the clerks and the general
public and so the amendment was
sound,
Going back to the idea of paying
the assistants overtime, Mr. God-
dard said that it was a most
difficult thing fo. an employer
to pay overtime to anyone who was
working on his own. They never
knew when the men got where
they were going. And when they
would take their time unloading
the lorries and idle away time
otherwise.
“We do everything that
our business is condu
the day. But it is ways
convenient.†The Hono) e Se-
nior Member for St. Michael heard
of the wages, salaries and the
difficulty of the tasks, but he
wanted to assure him that even
if that is true, the men are re-
compensed. When they have to
go out early, they are given their
breakfast to take along with them
ete. He was saying that the bill
did not apply to the delivery men.
They were separate and distinct.
Mr. Dowding (E) said that the
amended Bill did not contain in
the objects and reasons how lorry
drivers could be regarded as
assistants, He felt that the amend-
ed Bill was not serving the pur-
pose that the Hon, Introducer in-
tended it to serve. It was in his
opinion a matter again where the
Union was getting mixed up with
the Government.
Mr. Adams (L) said “if the
only way to save the lorry drivers
is to call them shop assistants, we
will call them shop assistants.â€
He added “it is monstrous.for the
delivery men to.work during the
day as porters around the stores
and then at night deliver goods.
They get back very late at nights,
park the lorries in the owners’| [
yards, and then have to walk
home.â€
He said that the delivery men:
should not be made to leave the!
store to make deliveries unless it
was absolutely sure that they
could reach back before 4.30 p.m,
Shop keepers in the country dis-
tricts should do their business
early and let their deliveries be
made early.
There were several people who
should work at scent because it
was absolutely esse! : ut it
elivery
was not essential for®
men to work at night.
laining how lorry drivers
col with, storés were in-|
cluded in the Bill, he said that
they were originally put in the
Shop Closing Act as among those}
exempted. But the Government in|
Executive Committee decided to}
delete lorry drivers and transport)
workers from the exempt list sol
that they would automatically be
included.

Adams,

CUSTOMS TARIFF ACT AMENDED
The House of Assembly yester-
day passed a Bill to amend the
Customs Tariff Act, 1921.
The Bill seeks to amend fhe
Customs Tariff Act, 1921, so as to
provide for the exemption from
duty of the following classes of
articles, namely—
(1) Machinery and apparatus
imported for road purposes
by the Commissioners of
Highways and for Aeradio
Services by International
Aeradio Ltd.
the baggage personal and
household effects of public
officers on first appointment
to the Island;
apparatus, ath-
letic gear and sports gear
for organized games in
schools—hitherto these ar-
ticles were exempted when
imported by the Director of
Education; this amendment
will enable the Governing
Bodies of Schools to import
their own equipment duty
free on the certificate of the
Director;
(2)
(3) gymnastic
(4) articles imported by and for
the use of the Extra-Mural
Department—this would ex-

thus extending to this Island
certain provisions of the

Dr. Toukas, the patient became

knocked out was the one the
dentist wanted to pull.

ticn in 1949 as 2,378,000,000 as compared with

ARGENTINE INCREASE IS VALUE
251%
Ot the 52 countries listed, only one—the
Republic of Ireland—has actually shown a
c_erease (7%) during the period 1900-1949.
There the population went down from|%
3,200,000 to 3,000,000. The largest percentage 8
increase among all the countries listed was
registered in Argentina, where the popula-
ton rose from 4,800,000 in 1900 to 16,800,000
in 1949, This represents an increase of 251%.
Argentina is followed by Cuba (231%),
Colombia (217%) and Brazil (101%).
On the whole, the American continent has
recorded the greatest relative increase dur-
ing the past fifty years. The WHO study
shows that this rise amounted to about 112%,
the 1949 population being estimated at
320,800,000 as compared with 151,000,000 in
1900. The rate of increase has been slower in
Europe than anywhere else. The population
of Europe rose only 36% (not including the
USSR) during the half century under review.
Estimated at 288,000,000 in 1900, Europe's
population had grown to approximately
392,000,000 by 1949.

What is today the USSR had a population in
{800 which was less than half as large as that
of the rest of Europe, but in the past fifty
years around 74,000,000 have been added and
the USSR at present has a population of
200,000,000. The greatest increase in Europe,
outside the USSR, was recorded in Italy. Its
pcpulation rose during the period in question
from 33,400,000 to 46,000,000. In Oceania
the population rose 100% and was up to
12,400,000 in 1949, while in Africa the per-
centage increase was 41. Ths African popuia-
tion in 1949 was estimated at 197,900,000 as|«
against 140,700,000 in 1900.
HALF OF INCREASE IN ASIA
Half of the world’s total increase has been
contributed by Asiatic countries alone.
Although some of the smaller countries, such
as Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, etc.,
rccorded increases as well over 100%, the two
large countries, viz., China and pre-partition
India, increased relatively slowly at rates of
approximately 30% and 49% respectively.
Yet their contribution to the total world in-
crease is almost one third, though some of the
population estimates are not always reliable.
6
The WHO study also shows that the world
population has nearly quadrupled in the past
three centuries, rising from an estimated
945,000,000 in 1650 to approximately 2,378,-
000,000 in 1949, The most rapid growth has
been principally, in the past, among Euro-
peans and their migratory descendants on
other continents. The factors contributing to
this were presumably the settlement of new
lands, scientific and industrial progress and
developments in medical science and tech-
nology. But, the study adds, “the latter factors
are no doubt at work among the non-Euro-
pean populations. For instance, the period of
accelerated rates in countries such as Egypt,
India, Pakistan and Indonesia has occurred
much later than in the West.â€

In these days of peril, financial

personalities for each and every «
one of us to some extent in our
daily walk of life are feeling the

American shops.
Three firms > have captured an
estimated 60 per cent.-of the
American market.
American manufacturers say
that though they have tried and
tried they cannot get a formula
like the British favourites.
Says one of America’s largest
wholesale sweet distributors, at
New Haven, Connecticut; “Britain
offers us a unique product in
colourful, bright packages, with
more flavour and tasting much
better than the American pro-
duct.’

And British prices are the
same as, and sometimes lower
than, the American, in spite of
tariffs and transport costs.
Another big distributor says :
‘We have mot handled = any
American liquorice in two years.
It just is not as good as the
3ritish.â€
Shopkeepers ask for British
liquorice, although nobody tries
to “push†it, and across the
country customers want to “buy

The Brigadier could not say
definitely whether the proposals

GODDARD MOVES OVER
TO FASTER WICKETS
(By FRANK
MARGAN)
SYDNEY, Oct, 24.
THE WEST INDIES CRICKETERS have been practic-
ing “secretly†in Sydney before the official start of their
Australian tour in Newcastle on Friday. The team follow-
ing the direction of Captain Goddard, have forsaken the
famous Sydney cricket ground practice pitches for those
of Cranbrook College, priva
Barbados Wins
Swettenham
Trophy
The results of the Swettenham
Cup, 1951, have just been received
from the British Guiana Rifle
Association, who control the com-
petition that Barbados has won
the Swettenham Cup for 1951.
Barbados won it in 1950 with tne
score of 767. Barbados has there-
fore won the Martinez Shield and
the Swettenham Cup, 1951, and
bh team will be leaving on Sunday
4th November, 1951, to compete
in Trinidad as a_ shoulder to
shoulder Competition for the
Anchor Cup. If Barbados win
the Anchor Cup, 1951. they would
have won all of the Intercolonial
Cups shot for within the Crrib-
been in 1951.
The results of the Swettenham
Cup are as follows:—

te suburban boys’ school.
Although Goddard has given no
official reason for the switch it is
believed to have been made with
the intention of keeping the real
strength of the touring side a
secret. Goddard is believed to be
concerned over the number of
spectators including many Austra-
lian Testers who watched the
team practice on the Sydney
Cricket Grounds nets last week.
Owing to the presence of the
spectators Goddard did not give
his men a real workout but moved
to Cranbrook, Another reason
for the wicket’s change is that the
Cranbrook pitches are much faster
than the S.C.G. wickets.
Most Australian critics agreed
that fast Australian pitches com-
bined with the speed bowling off
Lindwall and Miller may mean the
difference between a Test victory
and defeat,
Star spinners Valentine and
Ramadhin—already regarded with
some awe by Australians who
have seen them in action in two

tice on faster Australian wickets

Archer May Be
In Against W.I.
SYDNEY.
Another headache for the Aus-
tralian selectors when they are
about to choose an opening bats-
man for the first Test against the
West Indies ig the fact that Ken
Archer scored a century on the
first day of the new cricket
season,
Archer, who is 23, was omitted
last February in the only test
England won. Ken Archer’s most
prominent rival as opener of the
Australian innings with left-
hander Arthur Morris is Sydney
Barnes, 35-year-old veteran, who
has shown good form since his
come-back.
Quite contrary to Archer's
cautious batting last season, he
showed the selectors on Saturday
his fine stroking. With fluent
drives, he scored 104 of Queens-
land’s 174 against New South
Wales. Archer was fourth out
when he was caught hooking
pacer Ray Lindwall. Lindwall
took three of five wickets on an
easy paced wicket

BARBADOS ADVOCATE
- Education System
Attacked —
ELECTORS ASSOC°ATION _ candidates
for St,
Michael for the coming Gen@ral Elections, Mr. Vincent
Griffith and Mr. A. R. Toppin, attacked the Government's
“horrid educational system of age g
annuation,â€
Carrington’s Village last
when the Association held a meeting
and super-
in
night. Mr. Vincent Griffith
who was brought on to the loudspeaker when the crowd
began to get noisy and stones were being thrown, told
the people, “I will fight this question of age grouping and
superannuation until my dying day.â€
He said that it seemed that this
election was being fought as a
eclour issue and the idea was
being fostered that because a man
was coloured voters would give
him their votes. “But I ask you
in these serious times when you
need strong men to guide your
affairs, to look at the question
dispassionately and vote for a man
for his substantial work.â€
Strong Men >
_ The ever increasing ¢ost of
living could be lowered by stop-
ping from buying from the sterl-
ing area. They were paying too
much to Great Britain who were
buying from Canada and _ other
places and then selling to .Bar-
bados. Faced with this they shad
to realise that Barbados wanted
strong men in the House of
Assembly who would not pander
with the British but would be
decisive as to the people’s rights.
With regard to education, he
said that the old system of educa-
tion was much better than the
system that was being practised
then. He mentioned an instance
of a boy who was superannuated
and whose father had to send him
to Grenada to continue his educa-
tion. This boy, he said, had sub-
sequently made good.
“Is it not a crime of the most
collossal magnitude,†he asked “if
a child born in Barbados has to
be sen: to Grenada to be .ed4u-
cated?â€
Before age grouping was start-
ea, there should be compulsory
education. If parents did not
have food to give the children
under such a system, Government
should provide the food.
There should he more accom-
modation, too. He remembered
being at the last St. Giles’ Prize
Giving Day when ihe headmaster
said the seboek registered over 800
boys and told the parents that he
was told by the Education De-
partment he would have to turn
back some of the children. It was
a shame that such should happen
in Barbados. And with this, he
said, there is yet talk against the
great number of make shift pri-
vate schools which were coming
to life, talk against the standard.
“Right was not done by the flood
victims,†he said. “Before Bar-
bados could be falsely generous
to Antigua, St. Lucia and Ja-
maica we should be generous to
those at home.â€
He said that the Labour Wel-
fare Fund should not be paid
back in full, but the people should
given a third of that money
free.
Mr. Griffita ended up on the
note that more jobs were wanted
for Barbadian youths and jubs
had to be found. His appeal, he
said, was chiefly to ine women
to the policemen wives,,to the
shop assistants.
Mr, A. R, Toppin recalled io
the people how they had acted
nobly by him at the last elections
and he was looking forward to
their support again. He had ab-
solutely nothing againsp the
Labour Party, he said. It would
be stupid for him to say tha the
Labour Party had done ing
for Barbados, nothing good. But
on the other hand they had not
done all that they could have
done and with the push «with
which they could have dong it.
| There was a Labour propagan-
‘da of black and white, but the
\thing they had to mind was the
| quatity of the men.

More Clerks
Taken On
At G.P.O.
Perhaps one of the busiest
spots in any community around
Christmas is the General
Post. Office and in Barbados this
is no exception. As the great
day approaches thousands of
people pass through the G.P.O
in the Public Buildings caily to
buy stamps and post Christmas
eards wishing their friends both
home and ovérseas “All the Best
for the Coming Season.†This
means more work for all hands
at the Post Office.
The Colonial Postmaster told
the Advocate yesterday that the
staff would be required to work
overtime and other preparations
were well in hand for the hand-
ling of the Christmas rush, which
ranges from the selling of stamps
to the posting and despatching
of letters, packages, posta! orders
ete., with all possible speed.
Three additional
G.P.O. have already been taken
on; two more will come on at
the beginning of next month
and three more clerks at the be-
ginning of December. By De-
cember 1st therefore there will
be eight additional clerks at
=n
G.P.O. Besides this, there :
|
clerks
be staff increases among stamp
sellers, porters and postmen as
socn as pressure in these depart-
ments is felt
At present there are
stamp sellers at G.P.O. and pro-
vision has been made for 4
fourth to be added at the be-
ginning of December, providing
an eight hour selling service. A
stamp selling booth has been
added at the Southern end of the
G.P.0. building «together with
posting facilities.
The new Welches Post Office |
will help relieve the congestion
at the G.P.O. as residents in that
area and its surrounding dis~ |
tricts will be able to make use|
of this new service.
