EGYPT TRIES

FOR |

SETTLEMENT OF SUEZ |
CANAL ZONE DISPUTE |

CAIRO, Feb, 1.

Egypt moved towards the eventual settlement of the
Suez Canal Zone dispute with Britain by organizing a
twelve-man National Front Council to guide Egypt’s nego-
tiations with the West. Informed sources said the Council
including Egypt’s powerful Wafdist Party, will advise
Premier Aly Maher’s Cabinet which will carry out any
negotiation with Britain and other Western powers on the
control of the vital Suez Canal Zone.

He said the Council will include
five Independent members, two
Wafdist—former Foreign Minis-
ter Mohamed Saleh Din Mohamed
and his former Deputy Ibrahim
Farag Pasha and two Liberal con-
stitutionalists.

The Wafdist Party headed by
former Premier Mustafa Nahas
Pasha, was ousted from power
when it failed to maintain order
during the day of rioting in Cairo
last Saturday.

Cairo morning newspapers
headlined the Government’s de-
cision to reduce the price of kero-
sene—the basic fuel of the lower
class Egyptians. Maher Pasha an-
nounced the kerosene cut yester-
day as the first step toward
lowering the high cost of living—
a popular move with Egyptians in
the lower income bracket.



Toary—Socialist
Clash Over King’s
Stay With Malan

London, February 1.
Conservative and Labour mem-
bers of Parliament clashed in the
House of Commons over the in-
tended stay of the King at Botha
House, summer home of South
African Nationalist Premier, Dan-
iel Malan,

Six Conservative members last
night challenged the motion by
six Labour members declaring
Parliament should ask the King
to consider “the distress” his stay
at Botha House -will cause many
of his subjects.

Conservatives retorted with an
amendment praying “His Majesty
will disregard mischievous at-
tempts to embroil the Crown in
controversy” following his accept-
ance of hospitality offered by the
Prime Minister of South Africa.

The Labour group objects to
Malan’s policy of racial segrega-
tion when the visit to South Af-
rica of the King, Queen, Elizabeth
and Princess Margaret was an-
nounced last fall, Malan offered
them the use of Botha House, the
official summer residence of the
Union Prime Ministers.—C.P.

ment will continue its efforts to
reduce prices on consumer goods
and to lighten Government ex-
penditures. He said hereafter
every Cabinet Minister will be
allowed to use only one Govern-
ment car.

Meanwhile British Ambassador
Sir Ralph Stevenson called on
United States Ambassador Jeffer-
son Caffery this morning. The
two envoys have been in almost
daily contact.

Reports that the Egyptian Gov-
ernment ordered the recall of
the “Liberation Army” guerilla
units operating in the Suez Canal
Zone were under study by high
British Staff officers here. }

A British military spokesman
said although there was positive
evidence that such an order had
been issued, a decrease in Terror-
ist activity over the past few days
might be due to this order from
the new Egyptian Government.

Revolution In Britain’s

Health Service Planned

LONDON, Feb. 1
The Government formally proposed on Friday a revolu-
tion in Britain’s thousand million dollar a year National
Health Service. It introduced a bill in Parliament to charge

fees for certain services and appliances including wigs which

formeriy were free.

It demanded authority to levy
fines or jail sentences on those who |
violate the new law. Conservatives

Motion Approved

Parliament last night approved
by 306 to 275 the Conservative
motion asking support of the aus-
terity programme after defeating
the Labourite “No Confidence”
move 309 to 278.

Leftwing Labourite Aneurin
Bevan called the new fees “mean”
and “contemptible”, and said that
they resulted from an allout West-
ern arms drive.

The new Tory measure is ex-

id to become another confi-
dence vote issue when it is de-
bated later. It calls for;

1. Fees up to one pound for all
dental treatment except for
school children, hospital pa-
tients, expectant mothers, or
a mother who has had a child
in the preceding 12 months.

2. Charges up to 12 shillings for
hospital beds, for which pa-
tients pay part of the cost to
get additional privacy.

3. One shilling charge on pre-
scriptions, drugs, and medi-
cines.

Russia Guilty
Of Breaking
1945 Treaty |

PARIS, Feb. 1. |

The United Nations General |
Assembly found Russia guilty of;
breaking the 1945 Friendship,
Treaty with Nationalist China. The}
Assembly duplicated the Political |
Committee’s earlier vote, approv- |
ing the Nationalist Chinese resolu-
tion accusing Russia of violating

the treaty. By the vote, Chiang}

Kai Shek’s regime, with powerful |
support from the United States, |
rung up the most decisive U.N.
victory over the Kremlin. j

But the impact of victory was |
somewhat dulled by the huge num- |
ber of abstentions—24—including
the British Commot.wealth and
France. The attitude of the ab-
stainers was that resolutions re-
cording dead history can do no
good and may even aggravate a
dangerous enough situation in the
Far East.

Russia Indicted

The Nationalist Chinese resolu-
tion specifically indicted Russia for
blocking Nationalist efforts to re- ;
establish sovereignty in Manchu-
ria after the war and for pumping |
aid to the Chinese Reds. |

The Kremlin thus failed to live
up to the clauses in the 1945 Sino-



|
|

Soviet pact, in which neighbour
nations agreed to respect each
other’s sovereignty and Russia

pledged to send aid exclusively to
the Nationalists.

Once again, the ominous situ-
ation in Burma over-shadowed the
argument over Soviet Treaty vio-
lations, with Russia levelling the

most extreme charge on alleged Govt.

United States plans for “aggres-
sion” against Red China

The Soviet delegate, Jacob A.
Malik, contended that Nationalist
guerillas, commanded by US.
Generals and lesser officers already
had launched military operations
in Burma as part of larger “aggres-
sion” against Peiping.—U.P.



Presidential
Primaries Tell
How ‘Wind Blows’

By DAVID G. BRIGGS
WASHINGTON, Feb, 1.

Political analysts are looking
forward to Presidential primaries
in several states of the United
States to give at least a token in-
dication of the strength of candi-
dates now in the running for thet
national elections next November. |

Presidential primaries are about |
as useful in political guesswork as |
& weather forecast is in meteoro-
logy. They tell which way the wind
is blowing in a particular spot.
Although unreliable in forecasting
the national political complexion
they do serve some useful pur-|
poses.

For one thing they “smoke out”
potential candidates who might
otherwise prefer to keep their in-
tentions secret until a few weeks
before the national political con-
ventions in July.

General Eisenhower was an ex-
ample for he was an unknown
political factor until his major
supporter Senator Henry Cabot
Longe announced that his name
would be entered in the New
Hampshire State Primary, The
General's failure to withdraw his
name during the ten day period
which ended at 11.07 a.m. E.S.T.
Sunday was final evidence if any
were needed that the General is
a candidate.—U.P,

An outbreak of “hurricane

battered Fiji on Friday. People of
all races were complaining that
they were suffering from Lethargy

having horrible nightmares reliev-

death and destruction to the
island.

Disaster produced an unprece-
dented degree of inter-racial co-
eperation, Some Europeans shel-

B.G. Takes Step” ~

For Universal

Adult Suffrage

GEORGETOWN, B.G., Feb. 1.

British Guiana has taken its first step for the introduction
of universal adult suffrage on which elections to the Legis-
lative Council under the new constitution will be based.
With one amendment reducing the residence qualification
for a voter in an electoral district from six months to three,
the Legislative Council after six days of debate regarding
the new constitution promulgated by the Waddington Com-
mission passed a bill to enable the Government to proceed
with enumeration.



Under the bicameral con-

stitution, tne st general eiec-

| Good Fl . tion is not likely to be before
Js ying 1958. Transition from a limited
electorate to one of full adult

suffrage is alone a difficult thing
which in the case of this coun-
try will entail possible registra-
tion of some 250,000 persons
against 59,000 under the present
constitution and as the procedure
whereby that registration may be
effected becomes crystallised, fur-

grandmother’s pig, in the absence
of other relatives, counts as a rela-
tive, and if a grandmother, whose
husband is dead, feeds two pigs of
her own, she is not entitled to give
oné side or a part of the side of
either pig to any relative, neigh-
bour, acquaintance, stranger or
friend. If two pigs, one side of each
of ‘which each of two owners in-
tends to keep for his own use, are
fed oy anybody else, then each side
of alternate pigs counts as both
sides of the same pig, for all pur-
poses of retention or distribution.”

Hunting Autographs
ICTURES of unhappy shiver-

48 hours to get somebody’s auto-

how they spend their spare time.
Do they read over their auto-

ing down their faces? Or do
they catalogue the bits of cloth-

scuffle? I imagine that when a
star ceases to be a star a bit
snipped from her fur or one of
her discarded cigarette-ends can
still be sold to some retired
collector in order to provide
money for sandwiches on all-
night vigils. Are there autograph

A Race? Now They Pray...

By R. M. MacCOLL

roaring days of Old,

where anything went. But now it
fis highly respectable, and the
thought of having a racecourse

And those Arkansans are mis-
chievously planning to start a

over the line.

In Little Rock, Arkansas capi-
tal, the Racing Commission is to
decide whether to grant a license.

And to try to forestall this evil,
preachers of nine religious de-
nominations will conduct a non-

DE CEMBER

By C. C. Skeete, Director
Of Agriculture

The average total rainfall for the Island for the month of

December, 1951,
widey distributed rains fell

was well above the average.

Heavy and
on the 2nd, 17th and 26th; the

majority of districts also received moderate to heavy show-
ers on the 7th, 27th and 28th. According to rainfall returns

received from 34 stations,

situated in the various rainfall

categories of the Island, the average total for the month was
8.36 inches. The average total for December, 1950 was 4.68
inches, and the average for December for the past 100 years

was 4.74 inches.

The highest total fall for
December, 1951, at any of the
abovementioned stations wa
15.10 inches, recorded at a sta-

tion in the highlands of the par-
ish of St. Thomas, and the lowest

was 5.02 inches, measured at a
station im the parish of St.
Michael.
Sugar Cane

The old cane crop, particularly
the ratoons, continued to grow
satisfactorily as a result of the
very favourable weather con-
ditions which prevailed during
the month. Following the good
weather mentioned above, the

estimate of the 1952 crop has been
increased by 5,000 tons to the
equivalent 170,000 tons of
pugar.

The supplying of the newly
planted crop was carried out dur-
ing the month; the germination,
in general, was quite satisfactory.

During the month, inspetions
of cotton plots were carried out
to ascertain whether there nad
been a re-appearance of the pink
bollwerm, and it is regretted to
report that in the early part of
the month, this pest was found
in a very localised area in the
parish of St, Philip. A very in-
tensive search has been = con-
tinued, and no further outbreaks
have been observed in any other
area, Reaping of the cotton crop
commenced during the month
and several growers were able
to sell their first reaping before
the Xmas season. Yields are
very much better than was ex-
pected, especially in those plots
where proper care had been puid
to the preparation of the land
prior to planting, and to which
sulphate of ammonia had heen
applied. It is hoped that yields
of over 1,000 Ibs. of seed cotton
per acre will be obtained.

of

Peasant Agriculture
The main food crops harvested



by peasants during the month
gave less than average yieids,
The returns from sweet potatoes

particularly were disappointing,
and there was a marked shortage
of marketable tubers. During the
latter half of December, the sup-
ply of “green” vegetables had im-
proved both in variety and quan-
tity.

The ripening canes are lookirg
well, and peasants, generally, are
expecting satisfactory yields.
There were definite signs of im-
provement in many ratoon fields
during December. The young
plant canes are making good
growth, but in some areas con-
siderable supplying will have to

be done,

The picking of cotton was con-
tinued during the month, This
wag hampered to some extent by
the rains. Growers of the crop
have reported fair yields

Fruits in limited supply in the
market included limes, papaws
cocoanuts, golden apples and
guavas. Breadfruit trees are beor-

ing well and good supplies ef {iis
crop may be expected within the
next two months,

Pests And Diseases,

Slugs, encouraged by the wet
weather, continue to be a serious
pest, especially in vegetable gar-
dens. Other pests reported dur-
ing the month included scale in-
sects, cabbage white butterflies,
green leaf hopper and army
worms. Active measures are be-
ing taken by the extension stafl
to control these pests.

Balanced animal feed ani
green fodder were in good supply
throughout the month.

The Peasant Agricultura) In-
structors visited 494 peasant hold-

ings and 8 school gardens in
December. Six mango trees were
top-worked.

The average rainfall for the
six Agricultural Stations for the
year 1961 was, 84.79 inch is
compared with 77.15 inch for
1950, being an increase of /.64
inches.

During the month routine

operations were carired out at all
stations, including the planting
out on a field scale of vegetables,
especially cabbage and tomatoes.

There was a total of 117 head
of livestock on the stations at the
end of December. Four hundred
and thirty-three gallons of milk
were produced,

The numbér of stud services
paid for was 276. These
as follows:— bulls 105,
rams 34 and boars 71.

Entomological

The work of building up pro-
duction of poravites for 1952 con-
tinued normally. Routine fielc

was carried out.

worms in various parts of the
Island. This is normal at this
time of the year and can serious-
ly reduce yields. A fair amount
of spraying with lead arsenate
had been carried out, but the
persistent rainfalls largely nulli-
tied this work Collections were
made of pigeon pea pods at-
tacked and damaged by lepidop-
terous larvae in order to discover
if any local parasites were pres-
ent. Further collections were
made of corm ear worms for the
same purpose. If no local para-
sites can be found importations
may be made in order to help
control these pests which destroy
food crops.

A few fields of ratoon
were .found in which
but old root borer
found. These fields
searched for the ant Acropygon
and its associated root damag-
ing mealy bug. The same search-
es also found a few cases of root
borer grubs in the roots of way-
side grasses.

Searches were made in Decem-
ber for yellow Acropygon ants
and cane root mealy bugs. So
far a fairly extensive area in
the higher portion of the centre
of the Island has been estab-
jished as infested and in some
cases the soil was examined by
means of pits in order to con-
nect, if possible, infestation with
soil tilth and ratoon age and
vigor, More information ig need-
ed before it can be concluded
that the ants and mealy bugs
have any connection with ratoon
deterioration.

Botanical
Routine breeding work was
completed by the end of the
month. One hundred and

eighteen lanterns had been used,

including seventeen for the Cy-
togeneticist. Arrowing was very
concentrated, and it was not
possible to use any of the lan-
terns a second time. Most of the
arrows have ripened and have
been sown at Codrington. Ger-
mination has been excellent on

the whole, but , as always hap-
pens, one or two crosses have
proved to be incompatible and
have given no seedlings at all.

Seed of certain crosses which
have been selected for resist-
ance to mosaic disease was sent
by air to Jamaica during the
month,

which did not germinate when
first sent, were sent to the Dom-

cultivation had been given, The
heavy rains towards the end of
the month provided severe

was gratifying to note that a

avoided water-logging at

be tepid. There still remains despite vali-

‘9 well that not everyone understands dia-
ant attempts at banishing it, a fear on the

Conference opened Today about Smars lect. is this



part of some people of tourism. There are
still people who complain that hotels get
the first call on meat and fish and that the
rise in the cost of living is somehow or
other traceable to the influx of tourists
during the last six years.

This kind of talk is as old as Watt’s steam
engine. Even Pakistan’s Ambassador to
Brazil was reported as saying this week
that “one machine can throw 100 people
out of work.” It might ,have been said
perhaps with as much accuracy that one
machine can provide employment for 150
people, even though it appears to deprive
100 people of work. The fear that tourism
would put up the cost of living in Barbados
was groundless. It may be said with little
risk of contradiction that without a sub-
stantial increase in the number of visitors
coming to Barbados, this island would have
found it impossible to provide so much em-
ployment and would have found it less
possible to cope with a rising cost of living
which is due to increases in the price of
essential imports. The island earns far
more from the tourist trade, for example,
than it spends on subsidisation of food.

If the government wanted another in-
stance of the value to be derived from
the tourist industry it can be provided by
the experience of the Manager of the new
Coral Reef Club.

During the past month he has been be-
sieged with applicants for jobs from
people in search of employment.

Every new hotel in Barbados means in-

creased opportunity for employment. And

the problem of finding employment for
all its people will always be a problem for
any government in Barbados. If the politi-
eal party which holds the greatest number
of seats in the House of Assembly were to
approach tourism from the angle of the
opportunities which it offered for employ-
ment, much greater progress would have
been made with this industry and there
would be correspondingly less unemploy-
ment in the island.

The island can count itself very fortun-
ate indeed that more and more visitors
from outside are helping its economy by
living here and as in the case of the Coral
Reef Club, assisting Barbados’ tourist in-
dustry by constructing a residential club
that has so many attractions to offer the
visitor from another country, and to resi-
dents.

COMPLIMENTS

WHAT the cruise director of the Argen-
tina had to say about Barbados should
make the Publicity Committee, the Police
and nearly everyone else blush with sat-
isfaction. There was no complaint he
could make, Everybody was delighted with
Barbados and their only regret was having
to leave as early as one p.m.

Many tourists said that they would have
preferred to spend a whole day in Barba-
dos instead of in Trinidad. The cruise
director was more encouraging. He said
that the MOORE-McCORMACK lines
would certainly include Barbados in next
year’s cruise programme, In addition he
mentioned that many of the passengers on
the Argentina were so pleased with Bar-
bados that they were considering spend-
ing a winter here.

The cruise director was not trying to be
polite. His appreciation was verified by
the passengers themselves. Their obvious
enjoyment of Barbados was written over
their happy and contented faces. And
their conversation in the launches during
their journey back to the ship confirmed
the evidence of enthusiasm reflected on
their faces. If this was all, satisfaction
would be in order. Barbadians will never
grow weary of hearing their island
praised. But the visitors did not restrict
their appreciation to polite remarks about
the island’s attractions, They ‘hired taxis,
bought hats, bags, curios and string neck-
laces and left Barbados richer by hundreds
if not thousands of American dollars than
it was earlier that morning.

The island needs to redouble its efforts
to welcome tourists, but criticism ought to
be balanced by praise and the approval
and appreciation of the Argentina’s cruise
director deserves public notice and will no
doubt encourage us all to continue.

XPEOITION -4

The Story Of Price Control

is The Story Of—

From time to time through-
out the ages, kings, emperors
and governments have tried to
put a limit on the prices of
commodities, History shows
that not one has succeeded,

400 Years

as John K. Heughan very

pointedly shows im his article

in the Melbourne ‘Record’.

It also provides ample evi-

dence that a free economy

is the only source of ample
food, clothing and shelter.

A SURVEY of ancient, medieval
and modern price cvuntrol sys-
tems shows that they increased
the evil they -were meant to
remedy, and that they created
scarcity and higher prices instead
of more production and a higher
standard of living.

Earliest records are in_ the
Laws of Hammurabi, King of
Babylon—2285-2242 B.C. These

set out wage controls for workers

and regulated fees, freights and
prices.

Later, the Hittite Code—1350
B.C, shows that abortive

attempts were made to fix wages
and prices in Asia Minor.

The fact that such laws had to
be abolished or drastically revised
under popular pressure indicates
that even in ancient times rulers
met with deep-seated resentment
against their attempts to restrict
the activities and trade of their
citizens.

Contrast

In contrast, history tells us that

the Roman Republic, under a
constitution guaranteeing free-
dom, became the envy of “bar-
barians” of other countries. Its
soldiers were increasingly vic-
torious in their conflicts with the
half-hearted mercenaries of

neighbouring nations that enjoyed
little freedom.

The glory that was Rome
extended throughout what is now
Western Europe and Northern
Africa because Rome was the
centre of freedom. There were no
planned economies, and the free-
dom of Rome extended through-
out its colonies,

The recurrent famines of
earlier days were experienced
with less and less frequency.
Rome gave the civilised world
the highest standard of living
then known to mankind. »

But What happened?

The leaders reached out for
power. The republic became an
empire. At first the emperors
were cautious, They talked free-

dom as they progressively
planned a police state. A feeble
senate and enervated people

acquiesced in the pleasing illu-
sion, The people were fooled_with
circuses and assurances that they

would still enjoy their ancient
freedom.
But, as_ the stem brought

about the inevitable results, they
had to look to the gevernment to
supply more and more of their
needs, Production declined every-
where, Prices skyrocketed,
Price Control Scheme

Emperor Diocletian decided to
fix prices and reduce the cost of
living. So in A.D, 301 he issued
an imperial edict fixing prices of
commodities for the whole Roman
Empire.

His grandiose scheme was
ushered in with a fanfare of
benevolent propaganda, which

shows he had an insight into the
laws of psychological propaganda
which is as startling as it is up
to date. The edict explained how
people had become greedy; how
exhorbitant profits were being
made; how monopoly was run-
ning wild, and the people there-
fore needed protection from the
foes within as well as foes with-
out. The only cure was complete
over-all control of food, clothing,
wages and so forth. To enforce
his law, Diocletian built up a
huge bureaucracy to administer
this universal price-control ~sys-
tem. The number of ministers,
magistrates and servants who

Our Readers
Protecting The Public
To The Editor, The Advocate—
SIR,—Recently we have heard
ef several people being stabbed
in cold blood at night. We have
a Police Force with several offi-

cers making efforts to counteract
this behaviour,

I suggest that the provisions of
the Larceny Act and the Vagrancy

Act shculd be seriously enforced
so that civilised people can be
protected.

The Act says: “Whosoever shall
be found by night armed with any

ngerous or of weapons
or instruments whatsoever with
intent to break or enter any
dwelling house or other building
whatsoever and to commit any
felony therein or shall be found
by night having in his possession

Black Market

Death was the punishment for
those who dared to sell above
maximum prices and also for the
buyer who aided and abetted him,
Death, too, for those who bought
or sold illegal stocks. However,
‘Suman nature being what it is,
these penalties did not affect the
general picture, and no bureau-
cratic machinery could prevent a
complete break-down of the law
of supply and demand with all
the economic and social evils
resulting from it.

Economic historians of the
Roman Empire find that a
situation developed which was
as tragic as it was prophetic.
Because the scarcity of produc-
tion was heightened by
interference from price control
laws, prices of goods rose to
catastrophic heights. The con-
trol system which was put into
operation to combat inflation
actually created inflationary
trends which broke the back-
bone of the economic life of a
great empire.
History goes

that the economic
credible Poverty was created
among the masses. Landowners
and manufacturers, who were the
hardest hit, lost interest in a
system of economic slave control

Of

that took away the inventiveness
and enterprise _of the human
genius. Again the well-known
historical law was proved—soil
tiled by slave labour never
yields such abundant fruits as
land cultivated by free farmers.
Taxes and surtaxes multiplied
in hopeless effort to fill an ever
empty treasury, Tiey only add-
ed to the economic destruction
and hastened the end of the great-
est empire of ancient history.
The economic breakdown made
the empire fall an easy prey to
the attacks of the “barbarians”
who later poured in
borders of the empire.
In later years many rulers, no-
torious for their excessive ego-
tism, found to their cost that
prices could not be controlled
without serious detriment to the
social and economic systems,
France Tried It
There was Philip IV, of France,
who, in 1306, created a dire scar-
city of wheat, bread and clothing
by his price-control system.
There were English Kings, like
Henry III and George II, who
tampered with prices of grain
and bread until Parliament rose

on to point out
waste was in-

over the

up in indignation and _ repeated
these royal price-control at-
tempts.

There was Edward III, who,
on an island kingdom, tried the
ridiculous scheme of fixing
prices of fish at wnremunera-
tive levels. Soon all fish dis-
appeared from the markets.
When the Jacobins decided to

destroy French culture and en-
terprise, they made use of the old
tyrannical medium of a _ violent
price control. Being experts in
revolutionary technique, they
chose to place iron control upon
39 necessities of life under the
agency called Committee of Pub-
lic Safety.

Prices were fixed. Any attempt
to profiteer was punishable by
death. Nevertheless, every means
Was taken to evade the fixed
prices imposed. Production drop-

: Food became scarcer.
Ration tickets had to be issued.
The spectre of famine rode
through the land. “

To break all opposition,
“Terror” was established, The
Tribunal Revolutionaire began
sending scores of innocent people
to the guillotine every day. Be-
tween March, 1793, and July,

In the United States a limited

a run-away inflation soon began

They Knew it in 1778

The Continental Congress very
quickly realised that it had to re-
verse its policy to prevent sure
economic doom. In its meeting on
April 8, 1778, it declared to the
sorely tried war-torn nation

“It hath, been found by ex-

perience that limitation on the

prices of commodities is not
only ineffective for the pur-
pose proposed, but likewise

productive of evil consequences

to the great detriment of

public service and

of individuals.”

Price control in America was
over—not again to be revived for
160 years.

noise- I was rather surprised to see a

Thursday—The last day to hand in my form.

What nobody seems to worry about ex-
cept me is the injustice done by income
tax. There is no question of a square
deal for all. Take my case for instance.
I reckon very roughly that since 1941 the
income tax takers have got hold of some
£900 perhaps £1,000 belonging to me
and spent it in many ways, some good,
some bad. Frankly I wouldn’t worry too
much if I had something besides what I
earn. Living as I do on my wits, I have
nothing but what the income tax people
leave me to call my own. If I could get
back my £900 say £1,000 I might at least
be able to think of borrowing some
money to build a house. Whereas there
are many people who already own a
house who pay less income tax than I
do and have no rent to pay. Income tax
seems designed to take away from an
earner sufficient money to make it im-
possible ever for him to own anything
or to put anything by for his old age.
Again this would not be too bad if it
were based on equality of sacrifice. But
why should I who own nothing that I
can call a home go on shelling out money
I so badly need to protect my gray hairs
from destitution so that some deserving
civil servant can get a loan from money
contributed by houseless. income tax
victims like myself. I say nothing of the
fortunate people who acquire their
homes etc., before the income tax’ reach-
ed its present high level. It may be
necessary but it’s not fair, this income
tax.
What do you say, fellow victims?

ers and writers. But metaphors are
traps. If politicians could read their
speeches the morning after they might
tread with greater care, when they open
their mouths. For to quote one of these,
public speaking is “rampant with pit-
falls”. Clearly this is nonsense, since
rampant (used chiefly of a lion in heral-
dry) means “arrant” or “aggressive”
while a pitfall is a “covered pit as a trap
for animals” or figuratively “an unsus-
pected danger”.

Nothing

Definite

Yet On City Markets

FOR SOME YEARS now there nave been suggestions
made by the Commissioners of Health for St. Michael for
district markets, but no definite plans have yet been agreed
upon or suggestions made by the Commissioners yet been
enacted, Mr. J. M. Kidney, Chairman of the Commissioners

seid yesterday.

“This year we have been again
appointed by the Vestry to make
recommendations and it is hoped
that during the year, at leat one
district market at Eagle Hall
Corner and one in the immediate

city area will be brought into
operation,” he said.
The St. Miec.cc: Voetry had

appointed the Commissioners of
Health as a Committee te make
recommendations for markets.
That Committee functioned an<
reported back to the Vestry, re-

commending a number of sites
and following this, a vite wa
purchased by Government at

the corner of Eagle Holl.

At a meeting of the Commis-
sioners in July 1951, they con-
sidered a motion made by Mr.
E. D. Mottley that they should

visit a proposed site at Temple
Yard, extending from Upper
Cheapside opposite St. Mary’s
boundary wall to Drumm Street
and discuss with the Director
of Medical Services, the Direc-

tor of Highways and Transport,
the Director of Public Works and
the Commissioner of Police, the
advisability of closing this area to

vehicular traffic. They were to

discuss, too, the proposal of
erecting coverage with a view
to providing a temporary mar-

ket to accommodate the numer-
ous hawkers at present using the

several streets, pavements and
alleys of the immediate City
area,

During that discussion, Mr.
Mettley pointed out that the

closing of Temple Yard to veh:-

cular traffic would create no
hardship, as there were three
other entrances to the Public

Market. It- was only for the Di-
rector of Medical Services to
say whether the placing of pec-
ple there would be conducive
to healthy conditions and the
Colonial Engineer to sav whether
the street could be provided with
shelter.

Would Be Insanitary

When the site was visited, Dr.
O’Mahoney expressed the view
that the number of Vendors that
would come to that site would
make it very congested and in-
sanitary conditions would be
created. Because of the conges-
tion, too, many people would not
go there.

The Director of Highways and
Transport and the Colonial En-
gineer favoured the idea and said
that ifthe site could not accom-
modate the numbers then using
the alleys in the City, it would
still greatly relieve the congestion
in such pleces as Busbey’s Alley.
The Colonial Engineer said he
could have the necessary shelters
erected, but would have preferred
to see the present rum bond which
vas formerly a market used as a
market again.

Col. Michelin said that he would
weleome early steps being taken

relieve the deplorable state of”
affairs existing in Busbey’s Alley
end other places in the city and
agreed with making Temple Yard
a temporary market.

Members agreed that Temple
Yard could not accommodate all
the vendors in the immediate City
area, but the congestion in the
alleys would be greatly relieved by

temporary market.

Mr. V. C. Gale said ne thought
Mr. Mottley had made a very good
uggestion and with proper toilet
facilities it would make an excel-
lent site for a market.

Mr. Mottley at that time re-
minded the members that the
erection of such a temporary mar-
ket would not in any way negative
the recommendations already sent
to Government in respect of the
erection of a District Market in the
Tudor Street and other areas.





Mr. Mottley’s motion along with
a suggestion by Mr. Goddard that
the Government should acquire
the site at the right of Temple
Yard from Cheapside was sent to
the Vestry for transmission to the
Government.

The following month the Com-
a.issioners met to discuss other
uggestions for district markets.

The Director of Highways and
Transport wrote the Commission-
ers suggesting that the site in Cum-
terland Square now being used as
park, could be used as a
temporary market and Temple
Yard be the car park.



cir

Rum Bond Proposed

The Commissioner of Police did
not agree with that suggestion, He
wrote the Commissioners, stating
that there was no provision made
for the area to be covered and it
would not accommodate as many
vendors as Temple Yard. He sub-
sequently proposed the remodell-
ing and improving of the building
originally built for a market and
finding some other building for a
Rum Bond.

At the meeting he informed the
Commissioners that the Fire
-Officer had recommended to Gov-
ernment the removal of the Bond
as it was a menace and danger in
its present situation.

Though members

he Bond should be removed, they
felt that it was not suitable for a

from information received. Canon
Barlee said yesterday that on
August 11 in the afternoon he
was driving his motor car M—562
across Victoria Bridge and turned
left along Trafalgar Square.

:e]





“When I got to the Nelson
Monument I looked up Broad
Street and there was nothing in

sight, As I turned right to go up
High Street a bus appeared “out
of the blue” coming along Broad
Street.

“IT applied my brakes but the
bus coilided with the front part of
the car.”

Bus Not Seen

Canon Barlee said that he neve:
saw the bus before it hit the car.

Cpl. Robinson attached to the
Traffic Branch said that he went
o the scene of* the accident at
the junction of Broad and ‘High
Streets,

Cumberbatch showed him a
brake mark which he said was
made by the bus, He measured
the mark and from the start of
the impression to the front wheel
of the bus it was 38 feet long.
The bus was facing East and
was on the right side of the road

Addressing the court, Mr, Bar-
row submitted that the Police
Magistrate could not arrive at any
other decision than to dismiss the
case against his client. On the
evidence given by the witnesses 2f
the prosecution there was nothing
to show that Cumberbatch was
not exercising care,

One witness said that the ‘bus
was driven at a fast rate, but his
client was not answering a case
of speeding. There were also dis-
crepancies and the case agains
Cumberbatch should be dismisse 1.

the usual type of fishing boat and
can easily be hauled up on the

A large number of these boats

the windward coast of the island
They are so called because, un-

Although fishing boat races
have been held on many occa-

The owner is

On the open spot nearly 20 men
are still slabbing up tree trunks

False Pretences

Their Honours Mr as
Vaughan and Mr, A, J. H. Hans-

of Appeal, yesterday ordered
Rawle Holder of Tweedside Road,
St. Michael, to pay a fine of £5
or two months’ imprisonment with

sometime during the month of
May 1951
In doing this, Their Honours

Doughlas Gay, an under-Man-
ager of Staple Grove, Christ
Church, said that sonietime in
May 1951 the defendant came to
him and offered to buy his motor
ear which he had advertised for
sale in the Advocate.

After some talking the defend-
ant tried the car and was con-
tented with its performance. The
defendant asked him to let him
take away the car, but he told the
defendant that he would sell the

ear for $750.00 |

Joint Account

The defendant then said that he |

had no money of his own but his
mother had a joint bank account

with him and he could get her to!

withdraw the money, but he would
need $5 to give her so that she
could hire a taxi to get into town

He gave the defendant the $5
with the understanding that he
would give this money to his
mother so that the money could
be withdrawn from the account
He waited for word from the de-
fendant, but after a time he heard

nothing. He then reported the
matter to the Police !
Mabel Holder—step-mother of

the defendant—told the court that
she knew the defendant well. The
defendant's mother died in 1921
and she had no joint account with
him in any of the banks.

Rawle Holder said that Dough- |

las Gay never gave him $5 and he
never borrowed money from him
One day he saw Gay and Gay
asked him to repair his motor car
as it was not working properly

Before confirming the decision,
Their Honours said that the case
was very clear, The defendant
made an agreement with the man
and pretended that he wanted to
buy the car and after doing that
borrowed $5.

“The Magistrate was quite cor-
rect in imposing such a fine on
you,” Their Honours told Holder.

that Walcott had been asked only
to notify the Commission “of his

not to sign by then. The Commis-
