(From Our Own Correspondent)
LONDON, Nov, 10.
The British Trade Delegation
which is to explore the possibili-
| ties of stepping up exports to Latin
| American countries left London by
}air today for Venezuela. Prior to
, their departure, the mission
studied a memorandum compiled
by the British and Latin American
| Chambers of Commerce.
‘
Led by Brigadier W. Crosland,
| managing director of a light
engineering firm, the delegation
will be away for six weeks. Visits
will be made to Colombia, Cuba,
the Dominican Republic and
Mexico.
Difficulties
Outlined in the memorandum
are some of the difficulties ex-
perienced by British exporters
dealing with the Caribbean dollar
area. Foremost of these it is said,
is the inadequate and costly ship-
ping facilities. It is pointed out
that the chief reason for this is
because services are limited in
the main to passenger-cargo liners
involying first-class freighting
charges,
Round-about routing of cargo
liners also causes delay in goods
reaching the Dominican Republic.
cl are few, if any, direct
iba and Mexico,
The question of credit facilities
also poses a problem. The memo-
randym recalls, that many im-
porters will not trade on a basis
of cash against documents in
London,
Foreign competition presents
another difficulty, exporters com-~
plain, especially in view of tariff
concessions to the United States
granted by Cuba and the export
incentive schemes operating in
continental countries.
All these problems will be ex-
amined “on the spot†by Brigadier
Crosland and his colleagues.

the National Executive Committee
of the Labour Party by Bevan’s
followers recently got 194 votes to
82 for Bevan,
This was a gain of about 30
votes over any support Bevan has
aver polled among Socialist Mem-
bers of the Commons.
Several weeks ago Bevan was
able to get only about 50. votes
against the resolution which or-
dered him to disband his group
within the Labour Party. The vote
today may well encourage him to
try to get his group started again.
In fact political obsenvers said

he can get away with it as the

Clash At
LONDON, Novy, 10.
British Communists and mem-'
bers of the British Unionist Move-
ment clashed tonight in an ugly
street brawl touched off by a
led rally attended by the RFR
Dean of Canterbury Dr. Hewlett
Johnson, '
The two factions fought with
fireworks, rotten apples, stones
and fists. No serious injuries were
reported.
Mounted police and reserves
rushed by truck to the scene in
Northeast London, struggled with
only partial immediate success to
stop the combatants.
The rally was held at the Em-
press Hall commemorating the
thirty-fifth anniversary of the
Russian Revolution. Inside, it
went off without a hitch, Among
those on the platform were the

BONN, Germany, Nov, 11.
The two chief elements of

according to former United States
High Commissioner John J.
McCloy.
In a report to the State Depart-
ment covering his three year
stewardship until July 1952
McCloy said West Germany now
has achieved “virtual independ-
ence†while its economy bol-
stered by almost $4,000,000,000
in postwar United States aid “is
one of the strongest in Western
Europe.â€
McCloy concluded
otherwise optimistic report by
outlining “the elements of con-

LONDON, Nov, 11.
Prime Minister Mr, Churehill

for reasons which are obvioug
to prevent an agreement being

The five-man mission of Brit-

the Caribbean to advise on future
industrialisation, has acquired a
considerable amount of informa-
tion which it will assess for the
purpose of its report on the sea

Barbados
Mr. Willis said that the Mis-
sion had done the same here as
in British Guiana and Trinidad.
It had endeavoured to get as
broad a picture as possible in the
time available or the general in-
dustrial picture as it was at
present. Its time in Barbados had
been very limited and to some
extent, its work had been com-
plicated by the fact that the
week-end and public holiday on
Monday fell into the period of
the visit.
Due to the kirdness of busi-
ness people and Government
officials who gave up their holi-
day and week-end time, the
Mission had been able to see
most of the industrial establish-
ments and the leading figures in
commerce and Government.
In accordance with its prac-
tice, the Mission split up for the
purpose of the visits to enable
as many establishments to be
covered as possible, It had ac-
quired a considerable amount of
information, but it was not pos-
sible for it to anticipate its re-
port and in any case, there had
been insufficient time to digest
the very varied information
which wag supplied to it,

Fun in the upper air
HE idea of having landing
stations, anchored in space,
for rockets and other projectiles
going to and from the moon, has
been criticised on the ground that
space is filled with meteors and
other big bits of stuff flying at,
say, 50 miles a second. These
would smash the stations or
islands to pieces. But Dr. Strabis-
mus (Whom God Preserve) of
Utrecht has met this difficulty,
He has suggested that the land-
ing stations should be made high-
ly mobile by being tethered to
ambulating rockets, Space would
then become filled with meteors
and rockets and rocket stations
perpetually dodging each other,
and all supervised by a kind of
robot police consisting of radio-
controlled walls of air pressure.
These would burst at the approach
of any object, and would thus
give warning of imminent col-
lisions,.

ROM time to time there are
complaints that our system
of compulsory education is pro-
ducing illiterates in ever greater
numbers, The defence is, of
course, that in the old days of
silent films with captions read-
ing was a necessary acquirement.
But ‘talking pictures changed all
that. There then arises the per-
tinent question. What do chil-
dren learn at school? The chief
thing they are taught to-day is
the iniquity of corporal punish-
ment; a lesson forgotten as soon
as they are old enough and big
enough to attack old women or
night-watchmen.
Vews of zine
PIHERE was only one topic of
conversation all over England
yesterday, writes Melanie—
the abolition of licences for re-
melted zine and copper scrap.
Possessors of zinc were every-
where making sure that _ their
supplies had been remelted, and
the inspectors of copper scrap
were testing hastily and preparing
reports, The usual licence is still
required for unmelted zine and
for zinc which has been melted
only once, Those big remelting
factories which had already ap-
plied for licences for recent con-
signments have been informed
that this is no longer necessary.
“The setting of remelted zine free
to find its own level†saiq@ a zinc
official, “will have widespread
repercussions.†Laundry foremen
are awaiting the outcome,

give the reasons why this legis-
lation is necessary and draw at-
tention to the more controversial
provisions. I should make it
clear that the Bill is but one of
a series that will be presented to
the Legislature on the subject of
local government. It deals sole-
ly with the constitution and
election of local authorities, the
franchise, the officers, taxation,
finance, accounting procedures and
transitional matters. Legislation
to give specific powers in relation
to Public Health, Public Assist-
ance, Highways and so on are to
follow,
Published'In 1949
The Maude Report was publish-
ed in February, 1949, ang the
Vestries were asked to submit
— one observations and to
wer twelve ecific s
that embodied the at on
mendations of the Report. The
replies were carefully analysed and
showed clearly that the weight
of opinion was against acceptance
of the Report. On the other
hand there was a considerable
body of opinion supporting the
view that some form of change
Was necessary, though there was
great divergence as to what that
ehange should be. I must also
nind you, Sir, that there are
Petitions from the Vestries and
from the Synod against the ac-
eeptance of this Bill, and they
must be given their due weight.
There appear to be three schools
of thought; a small minority that
feels that no change is necessary;
@ very much larger body that feels
that change is necessary but that
it can be achieved within the
framework of the present Vestry
System; and finally those that feel
that the whole system of local
government should be remodelled.
e Government after a most
careful examination of all the
factors has reached the conclusion
that the third alternative is the
only possible and satisfactory
solution.
It is not my intention or wish
to disparage, or appear to dis-
parage, the Vestry system, or to
belittle its achievements in the
past. I have too great a respect
for ancient institutions, and no
system of Government that was
bad could have Iasted over cen-
turies. My aim will be to suggest
that as the story of mankind is
one of evolutien and change, so
the institutions, upon which we
rely to preserve the functions of
orderly community life, must
themselves, in due course, be
changed to meet changing cir-
cumstances,
Not Amiss
The pattern of the Vestry as the
organ of local government in Bar-
bados is drawn from the similar
form that grew up in the England
of the late Tudors and early
Stuarts. So it would not be amiss
to mention some of the factors
that gave rise to this form of gov-
ernment. It was the age when
feudalism, the power of the
barons and the manorial system
had broken down, — when the
problems of the uprooted peasant
following the Hundred Years’ War,
the decline in the authority of the
Roman Catholic Church following
the Reformation, and the rise in
the power of the monarchy aided
by the people, threw the burden
of local government on to the
Justices of the Peace and the
Vestries as the instruments of the
Crown. The Ves’ became re-
sponsible for Church and Parish
property and for the poor, for the
local highways and, perhaps as
the humble forerunner of a Health
and Sanitary Service, it was re-
sponsible for the destruction of
vermin, The urban areas that had
by Royal Charters received some
measure of authority including the
laying of rates, created some dif-
ficulty. But in this case, as with
so much that is good, legislation
followed the experiment and
initiative of genuinely philan-
thropic persons. London became
the pattern that was followed by
other towns, for London had
evolved St. Bartholomew’s
Hospital for the sick, St. Thomas’
Hospital for the aged and infirm,
Christ’s Hospital for children,
Bedlam for the insane, and Bride-
well as a house of correction and
training. The breakdown of these
systems in the nineteenth century
was due not so much to the
failure of the system themselves
as to the failure of personal values
and the spirit in which they were
overated. The works of Dickens
give us a vivid picture. The
growth of new towns and slums
as a result of the Industrial
Revolution, the rise of Noncon-
formity. both helped to create a
situation with which the Vestry
as an organ of government could
not compete, and reform of the
system was effected.
As Sir Joht? Maude points out,
the history of the Vestry system
in Barbados is different. The eco-
nomic disturbances were not ex-
perienced and the strength of the
Nonconformist movement was
either nut so strong, or it was
tempered with a more tolerant
and generous attitude on the part
of the Vestries themseives. Per-
sonally I think another factor was
that the Vestries were never re-
sponsible for so many services as
were the local authorities in Eng-
land. In any case, in a happier
atmosphere, the Vestry system in
Barbados continued and exists to
this day. But it is clear that the
machinery needs an overhaul.
The weakness of the present
Vestry system receives a chapter
to itself in Sir John Maude'’s Re-
port. In his paragraph 65, he
gives the chief defect of the sys-
tem as he saw it—the division of
the island into too large a num-
ber of separate local government
units. The West India Royal Com.
mission also remarked on the
system of eleven Vestries with
differing ideas ang opposing views
that had resulted, by multiplicity
alone, in chaotic discrepancies by
which measures required for the
Island as a whole could be ren-
dered nugatory by the inaction of
but one Vestry.
Important Point
Another very important point
raised by Sir John is that the
Local Government is in danger
of extinction unless changes are
made, This would come about
the process, which we have all
seen going on in recent years, of
the central Government absorbing
more and more the functions of
local government. This eventual-
ity would be neither satisfactory
nor the intention of the Govern-
ment. A unit of the size of the
Island is too large, and the differ-
ing needs of the two distinct areas,
the urban and the rural, make
necessary some form of decentral.
isation. I propose to show that if
local government is to survive
there must be changes, and if the
defects are not to be perpetuated,
there must be fewer units of ad-
ministration. In other words the
changes cannot be carried out
within the framework of eleven
Parishes, each with its own Ves-
try.
If as many as eleven units are
necessary for maximum efficiency,
then the parish could remain the
unit and the authority remain
with the Vestry. This point is
made by the Vestries in their
petition, though it is not enough
to say that as eleven parishes
have been found suitable for the
past three centuries that this is
still the case. The modern ways
and means of transport have so
speeded up locomotion that the
Island may be said to be a good
deal smaller than it was. When it
might have taken the best part
of a day to get from St, Lucy to
Bridgetown there was some ex-
cuse for the smaller units, but the
excuse no longer applies when the
journey can be completed in a
little over an hour,
Larger Percentage
Eleven units of local govern-
ment mean that a larger percent.
age of the ratepayers money is
spent on administrative costs than
would be spent if there were
fewer ‘units. To many units are
therefore wasteful. In addition to
this, too many units mean that
available revenue is spread too
thinly, and no one unit has suffi-
cient to supply such adequate
services as would be possible if
the resources were combined. It
may -be said that the expenses,
apart from the administrative
costs would be the same. This
may be so on paper, but practical
experience shows that the larger
the unit the better the uses to
which available resources can be
put. As an example, a needed
service might be too expensive
for one parish to provide, and in
any case it might be more eco-
nomical for it to serve other par-
ishes as well. The service would
never be provided if left to one
parish. If the Parish combines
with others, there will be disad-
vantages of divided counsel and
control, Or the central Govern-
ment might provide the service,
which is again the echo of the
knell of local government.
The three main services in the
hands of the Vestries—Poor Re-
lief, Public Health and Highways
—all illustrate clearly the non-
success of efficient local govern-

Under the Poor Kelief Act, 1892,
the Poor Law Board is required
to satisfy itself that the laws re=-
lating to Poor Relief are being
carried out by the Vestries. The
Vestries are required to set up
Boards of Guardians charged with
the actual administration of re-
lief within the Parish. The Guay-
dians can require the Vestries to
lay rates for relief. That is to
say, although the Vestries pay the
piper they do not call the tune.
The failure to grant the Poor Law
Board any power to enforce uni-
formity in relation to relief has
led to a variety of divergent prac-
tices in the eleven Parishes. And
in spite of the establishment of
the office of the Chief Medical
Officer, later to become Director
of Medical Services, the diver-
gencies of principle and pracfice
continue,
More Than Doubled
In the petition from the Ves-
tries it will be seen that a point
is made that the calls upon the
pockets of the ratepayers have
more than doubled in the last ten
years, and not less than 50% is
spent on poor relief and social
welfare. Over the same period the
expenditure of the Central Goy-
ernment has trebled—on Old Age
Pensions alone it has increased
five times—and one must remem-
ber that the value of money has
halved.
In the field of health, the Gen-
eral Board of Health has among
its powers that of making regu-
lations for the prevention of the
spread of epidemics, though there
appears to be some doubt as to
who is to enforce these regula-
tions. The Commissioners of
Health appointed by the eleven
Vestries have the power to make
and enforce bye-laws to ensure
proper sanitary conditions. They
prepare estimates of expenditure
and call upon the Vestries to pro-
vide the funds. Again the Ves-
tries pay the piper but do not call
the tune.
Sir John Maude quotes from
the report of the Chief Medical
Officer, 1939—40:— “Whilst the
Island continues to be served by
nine practically independent med-
ical departments, six miscellane-
ous medical services, twelve sep-
arate public health boards or
bodies, and eleven distinct poor
law boards, no fundamental pro-
gress can be expected, whilst the
public health policy in general
must remain largely disjointed.â€
The other extracts from later re-
ports make saq reading, but the
burden is the same, the multiplic-
ity of independent units that can
dabble in the administration of
a health service. The Department
of Medical Services Act and the
Barbados General Hospital Act
were passed in an attempt to put
the Government’s own house in
order. It is hoped that the Public
Health Bill will do the same for
local government health services.
In their petition the Vestries
suggest that the solution to the
problems of health administration
will be found in the proposed
Public Health Bill. But in this
Bill it is proposed to set up for
health purposes precisely the
same units of administration as
are proposed in this Bill before
us. This strengthens the argument
that there is a danger of the cen.
tral Government taking over all
the functions of local government
unless the number of units of ad-
ministration is reduced,
Good Road System
By comparison, Barbados can
boast of a road system as good
as any in the Caribbean, and in
this I fully agree with the Ves-
tries in their claim, It is true that
there are faults, but these are not
of technique or-construction. The
roads are narrow, but in an Island
in which every available square
inch is given over to production
this is i table. The roads are
winding and have frequent and
unnecessary sharp corners. But
this is not the fault of the engin-
eers, it results from the sturdy
independence of the landowners
of lon ago in their protection of
land for “King Sugar.†And, like
their fellows of Dorset, von
and Somerset, where the roads
have similar features, they seem
to have said—*“You can go round
my land not across it.†It was
interesting to see in the exhibition
of maps recently on display at
the Barbados Museum one pre-
pared by Moll in 1720 which

shows that at that early date an}
excellent road system existed,
and the local authorities and pri-
vate initiative must receive full
credit.
In road maintenance, the re-
spective roles of central and local
authorities have long been ap-
preciated. The central Govern-
ment maintains the trunk roads
that carry the through traffic, and
the local authority maintains the
branch roads used mainly by the
local inhabitants. This was the
system introduced into Britain by
the Romans. The great cross-
country roads, that can be traced
to this day running straight across
the countryside, were maintained
from Imperial sources, while the
colonial (in the Roman sense),
municipal or tribal authorities
were responsible for branch roads.
In Britain later Highway Com-
missioners seem to have been
much less successful than in Bar-
bados, for it was not until the
middle of the nineteenth century,
when the work of Macadem be-
came effective, that the standard
of road construction reached the!
high peak that had been attained
by the Romans fifteen hundred
years before,
It may be thought that speak-
ing in terms of praise of the work }
of the Highway Commissioners is
an argument in favour of retain-
ing the Vestry system, as suggest-
ed in the petition of the Vestries.
But if the position is examined
more closely it will be seen t
yet another example of the dan-
ger that the central Government
will absorb this function, It has
already absorbed it entirely from
three Vestries and_the item “Re-
pairs to Tenantry’ Roads†seems
to be yet another extension of
central Government influence.
The fact is that the Highway
Commissioners do not appear to
be dependent upon the Vestries
for anything more than their ac-
tual appointment. The funds are
not provided by the Vestry nor
are they under Vestry control.
The Vestry neither pays the piper
nor calls the tune.
Little Control
Thus we have seen that of the
three main services that are the
responsibility of the local author.
ities in the Island, the Vestries in
eight Parishes have little—and in
three Parishes have no—control
over their highways. The Vestries
have little control over the ad-
ministration of health services,
and are likely to lose what little
they have. And with the health
services, since so many aspects
are linked with poor relief, they
are likely to lose ground in this
field as well, It is therefore in the
interests of the preservation of
local government itself that there
should be changes, and_ these
changes must involve a reduction
in the units of administration. The
conclusion reached by the Gov-
ernment is that there should be
a municipality for the urban area
and two units of administration
for the rural areas.
There has been little criticism
of the proposal that the Bridge-
town area, which is essentially
urban, and_ therefore presents
different problems of administra-
tion to the rural varishes, should
form a municipality. In facet the

HOPEFUL INDUSTRY
what was said by
Assembly
during the debates on the Memorandum
on the Five Year Plan of Development
and Taxation that the importance of tour-
ism to the Barbadian economy is too little
appreciated.
Ignorance about the value
of tourism to any country is unfortunately
still characteristic of many peoples of the
world.
Her Royal Highness Princess
Alice re-
cently expressed in London an opinion
that is widely held by many persons in
Barbados when she said that she had the
impression “that tourists who are so much
sought after and for whom so much is
done, were more or less birds of passage
and did not benefit the island as a whole.â€
Needless to say Her Royal Highness was
only reflecting prevalent misconceptions
of what tourism means to a country.
The idea that tourism does not benefit
a country as a whole is a false idea based
on superficial impressions.
The correct approach to the understand
ing of tourism’s place in the economy of o
country is to evaluate it in terms of <
country’s total economy. Last year for in-
stance Barbados imported goods which
were valued at $51,918,327 and exported
goods which were valued
at only
$35,464,166. Barbados it would seem ai
first sight spent over sixteen million dol-
lars on imports than was earned by ex-
ports during the course of a year.
This
was far from being the case, the apparent
deficit being covered by earnings fror
tourism, from interest on capital invested
overseas, from emigrants’ remittances tc
Barbados and from capital attracted tc
Barbados from overseas. Of
these in-
visible exports, none is more valuable t
the island than the tourist industry.
| Because receipts of tourist earnings are
only known when they originate in hard-
currency areas, total earnings from tour
ism cannot be accurately known.
But
using the total number of visitors to Bar-
bados during the year as a guide and cal-
culating average daily expenditure ir
terms of the duration of their
visit it is
not difficult to arrive at an estimate of
’ total tourist receipts. A reliable estimatc
which has been made by a competent au-
thority in Barbados sets’ the
value o’
tourism to the island in the tourist yea
ended in August 1952 at a minimum of six
million dollars.
If what is commonly and _ regrettably
said by individuals like Her Royal High-
ness Princess Alice and by members ol
the House of Assembly were
true, the
value of tourism to Barbados would stili
be great because tourist earnings are sub
ject to taxation and the government of
Barbados taxes individuals and companie
at very high rates,
Highness and members of the
Assembly are alike mistaken.
In fact Her Roya
House of
Tourism.
does not benefit a small section of the com
munity but its benefits are widespread.
There is no one living in Barbados who
does not benefit in some way from tour-
ism, just as there is no one who does not
benefit somehow from the sugar industry.
Tourism makes up more than any other in-
visible export for the difference between
what Barbados earns from the sale of its
visible e
orts and what it spends on im-
ports, If there was no tourism there would
be less imports, and in consequence less
revenue for the government to be collect-
ed in customs duties.
Unless the loss in
imports were compensated by an increase
in sales of local handicrafts
and local
manufactures there would also be less
goods in the stores, less trade and less em-
ployment.
Her Royal Highness
Princess
Alice
speaks of the real people of Jamaica as
living in charming old houses and she
says they “do not mix with the tourists.
They have inherited something of the dig-
nity and elegance of the old 18th century
families and I should say that they are the
backbone of the populationâ€. We live in
the 20th century, a century in which the
rising growth in the population is rivalled
by the rising growth in demands for
higher standards of living. We cannot
afford to
isolate ourselves from tourists.
We must not ry. mix with them but make
them feel that t
ey are welcome.
Every
tourist who comes to Barbados by sea and
air brings us money which we need to pay
for our increased imports, to invest in lo-
cal industries and to provide
employment for additional
additional
Barbadians
who are being born in greater numbers
than before. To misunderstand
of tourism to our economy is to
the value
fail to re-
cognise the only certain remedy we have
to prevent large scale unemployment and
survival at little more than
starvation
level for thousands of our people. We can-
not therefore continue to see tourism as
an industry which benefits
only
mer-
chants and proprietors of hotels, restau-
rants, guest-houses and others,
helps everyone of us.
Tourism
Those who fail to
recognise its value and fail to encourage it
are not fulfilling their obligations to the
whole community.
The best way to win the co-operation of
those who accuse the Publicity
Committes
of racial discrimination is to invite one o:
more of the accusers to become members
of that body.
We cannot afford to despise
tourism. All of us must work to promote
its expansion in, the interests of all, With-
out it we cannot maintain the

Mir. President U.8.A.
Last Tuesday the American
nation elected General Dwight
David Eisenhower as the 34th
President of the U.S.A.
The elections in America
aroused interest throughout the
world, for-the destiny and actions
of any country in the world are
closely knit with the fate of every
other country—and so we in
Barbados felt some of the excite-
ment in the U.S.A,
But some of us were puzzled.
We heard excited radio announc-
ers talking about “popular†votes
as compared with “electoralâ€
votes and we heard mention of
“key†states. What on earth were
they talking about? Well, with
the help of the American Consul
here, | got these phrases straight~
ened out and perhaps you will be
interested in some points concern~
ing the President of the United
States of America and how he is
elected. ;
The President of America is not
elected on the amount of individ-
ual votes cast for him. That is,
supposing 55,000,000 votes ‘Ve
cast in an election and 28,000,000
people vote for Mr.
27,000,000 vote for Mr. B. Mr, A
will not necessarily be the Presi-
dent and it is quite possible for
Mr. B. to win the Presidency
although he got less’ votes than
Mr. A. In other words, the Presi-
dent is not elected on the voter
above, which are the “popular’
votes,
How then is he elected?
He is elected on what is termed
the “electoral†vote.
Electoral Votes
Each stale in America has a
certain number of “electoralâ€
votes. This number is not the
same for each state. The greater
the population of the state, the
greater the number of electoral
votes the state will have. For in-
stance, New York which is thickly
populated has 45 electoral
votes while Delaware which has
a smaller population has only 2
votes, The states with the largest
number of electoral votes are
. “key†states.
Now, if a candidate gets more
of the popular votes of a state
than any of his opponents, he is
given all of the electoral votes of
that state Therefore it is more
profitable for a candidate to top
the popular poll in New York, a
“key†state with its 45 votes, than
it is for him to do so in Dela~
ware, where he will get only two
electoral votes even if every single
person in that state voted for him.
There are 531 electoral votes in

IN THE usual jolly fashion, all
concerned in the outrageous de-
cision that the people shall not,

now falling over themselves to

ned on them. oe

ted to them for discussion,
IT WAS assumed, as a matter
of course, that they would swal-
low in one gulp what the shrewd
little top-group wanted them to

The ideas in the minds of some
of these people are almost crazy

their decision did not go for ap-

this extraordinary explanation:

Our Readers Say:
Unmitigated Twaddle ?
Yo the Editor, the Advocate,
SIR,—I have read with a sense
of nausea, relieved by a sense cf
the ridiculous, the unmitigated
twaddle. contained in an article
in the Monday Advocat*.
“We let the wrong people go
to Russiaâ€. Mrs, Lewis and her
associates are these very wrong
people to which the headline
refers and she proves it in her
article, She must combine the
gullibility of the penguin with
the intelligence of an earth worm.
I quote two extracts:
“I spenv only three weeks in
Russia visiting different types of
schools . and three weeks
is long enough to gain a fairly
accurate impression,†This in a
Russian sponsored town of a
country 5 times the size of Europe,
She knows all about it in three
weeks!
Who forms the party? Dr,
Lewis and herself and six educa-
tional nonentities from the L.C.C.
I doubt whether there is a B.A.
let alone an M.A. in the selected
party. Who selected the party?
And also, who paid their expenses
for three weeks? I suggest that
they were selected by the Russian
Propaganda department and paid
for by this department. How
could an assistant mistress at a
Walworth L.C.C. school psy ner
own?
Here is an article subtly laud-
ing everything Russian under the
guise of criticism. It is a cheap
cleverness which deludes the
people for which it is written—
the uneducated masses.
But the cream of the joke is
yet to come. Again I quote:
“I think I never visited a school
or camp without hearing “Please

he got only 89 electoral votes.

The Presidential Elections take
place on the first Tuesday in No-
vember of each leap year, but the
new President does .not assume

And then, what does a man
have to do or be to run for the

To be eligible for the Presi-

who has spent at least 14 years in

something of a menace,
As for the Duke of Norfolk—his

I CAN UNDERSTAND the Arch-

SIR,—Having read and experi-

to ask if it is absolutely necessary
to play the National Anthem at

Why not before, as in many

MacArthur. The Democrats chose
Mr, Stevenson rather than Sena-

Often there are. candidates,
backed by small groups or by the
state in which the candidate was
born — “a favourite son†— but
these candidates can hardly be
considered seriously, except as an
indication that there are still
some optimists in the world.
The Powers Of The President
What does the President do?
Is he something like a King?
Please don’t ask that last question
too loudly. You see the United
States of America came into
existence as a nation because the
people living in North America
around 1776 decided that King
George III was not treating them
as he should, Therefore, the
fathers of the American Constitu-
tion tried to ensure that the
President should be as little like
a King as possible, and- any re-
semblance between the US.
President and a monarch is
mainly accidental and uninten-
tional, or just. could not be
avoided.
In brief, the President is com-
mander in Chief of the Army and
Navy, and with the consent of
the senate, makes treaties and
appoints Ambassadors, consuls,
Judges of the Supreme court and
other officers. He is also re-
quired from “time to time†to
give information to Congress on
“the state of the Union†and re-
commend any measures he thinks
fit.
‘
Can Be Dismissed
If by -chance the President
develops into a rogue and villain
and goes in for “Treason, bribery
and other high crimes and mis-~
demeanours,†he can be im-
peached, tried by the senate and
on conviction, be dismissed from
ffice,
President Johnson in 1868 was
impeached for dismissing fhe
Secretary of War without the
senate’s consent. This impeach-
ment however sprung from
malice and luckily the president
was found not guilty by one vote.
And if the President dies be-
.fore his term is up? Is there a
fresh election? No,
President becomes President and
continues so until the next
elections that is how Mr,
Truman first became Mr. Presi-
dent U.S.A,
Archbishop as his authority on re-
ligion,
He is one of the Pope's flock.
And the Pope’s views on such mat-
ters are precisely the opposite to
those of the Archbishop.
Perhaps Coronations tend to
bring up old feudal instincts in the
Duke, But just because a remote
ancestor became the first Earl
Marshal he must not claim the
right in these very different days
to decide whether or not the peo-
ple of Britain shall see their Queen
crowned,
All this twitter and twaddle that
some incident might be televised
is poppycock,
THOSE WHO have seen at pre-
vious Coronations, as I have, an-
cient craggy peeresses lapping
down strong fortifying drinks from
yontainers camouflaged as_ hot-
water bottles, and fixing their field
glasses on the occupant of the
Throne through all the most in-
tense emotional moments, can only
laugh at the suggestion that a
family sitting quietly at home
watching the ceremony on a tele-
vision set would lessen its dignity.
Finally, we should stamp on one
other arrogant decision. The de-
cision that we, are not to be per-
mitted to see the film before it has
been passed as suitable by the
Archbishop and the Duke, who
have apparently self-appointed
themselves as censors,
That really is presumption in

It isn’t the~ business of any
Archbishop or Duke to limit the
freedom of the citizens of this
country in any degree, however
much they feel the urge to be
busybodies.
—L.E.S.
Taxation
SIR,—The feeble reply by
“Overburdened†in your Wednes-
day’s issue, shows that he is one
of those fellows who like every~
thing for nothing. He only wants
to be spoon-fed by a Government
and contribute nothing to the
Government funds, In these days
when our roads are so good and
cost so much money to maintain
them, it is not hard to ask cyclists
to pay $1.00 a year for a licence.
All this talk of the “poor manâ€
is “baloney†in many cases,
Take the wharf men, for In-
stance, who are no doubt con-
sidered in the “poor class,†Look
at their weekly pay sheets and
see what nice sums they obtain
regularly, and where does it go?
How many of *pay Income
Tax? How much do they contri-
bute either to the moral or social
structure of the community? How
many of them own homes or con-
tribute even to the parochial
taxes? Yet they get a good pay.
Then there are the agricultural
labourers. Visit any sugar factory
during the crop season, and see
the “leaves†in these people's
hands, and many of ther “jistâ€
the white collar and skilled
workers, and yet they go untaxed;
except for indirect taxation.
Why should taxation he so
heavy on the man. who is styled
as the “middle†elass because he
tries to pay his way through life
and calls his own doctor and pays
his own dentist? Salaries have
gone up too, so why can’t a cycle
license go to $1.00 a year?
As for our defiant and profiteer-
ing hucksters who refuse to go to
the provided market and demand
a better market, do they ink
that 1/- a year is good enough.
Better than none, no doubt, but
they too could pay $1.00 a year,
especially now that they compete
‘with groceries and shops anq sell
all kinds of articles.
If we want to have a satisfied
community then we must have
equitable taxation, If you cannot
get a fellow on the Income Tax,
then get him somewhere

Parades Go On- Even
In The Jungle.
By BERNARD WICKSTEAD
SEGAMAT, Johore.
FLAP. That was the only word for what
was on the day when I drove into the hilltop
camp of “A†Company of the Cameronians.
Sergeants were shouting and soldiers ‘in
shorts and bushjackets were leaping to atten-
hands with KERO

It was nothing to do with the bandits.| j) Bass or Yard
Something much more alarming was going Cobweb
on. The battalion commander was holding an ee
inspection and it was panic stations for all. Steel
A†Company is camped round what was e ‘eas
once a plantez’s bungalow. It is one of the
loveliest spots I have seen in Malaya, with a
view of the jungle that haunts the mind, and
the brilliant flowers of the flamboyant trees
fall on the tent tops below like orange snow.
But no one had time for the beauties of na-
ture. They had even banished Company
Sergeant-Major Willy Williams’s mongrel
dog Whisky. :

POSHED UP
The only creature around was Glen,
an Alsatian tracker dog from Australia who}}
is on the strength and had been poshed up
for the colonel like everyone else. His hand-
ler, Rifleman Donald Carruthers, is an ap-
prentice pattern-maker from _ Bridgeton,
Glasgow. ;
He decided to do his National Service be-
fore he finished his apprenticeship, but on
days like this when there is an inspection
4
on he says he wonders why. 2
Most of the company, in fact most of the REE
battalion, are National Service boys. Their y
officers say they make good jungle soldiers,
but you should hear what Regimental Ser-
ti
geant-Major Gibson has to say about them. WINDBREAKERS

the calendar and the clock.†: for the
ONE OF THE BEST North....
Of course, what the R.S.M. thinks about ‘ Caps, plain
& Tartan
National Service men is nothing to what they
think about R.S.M.s. No rfames, no pack drill,
so let’s have a word with that cheerful, grin-
ning rifleman standing by his outspread kit
over there.
He is John McCulloch and before he joined
the Army he was a driver’s mate at Airdrie,
Lanarkshire. Now he is a signaller and has to
carry the 35-16 radio set when his platoon goes
on jungle patrol.
McCulloch is not in favour of the British
Army—especially the British Army in Malaya
—but his company commander says he is one
of the best boys he has got and he would drag
that whacking great radio set of his to the
top of Mount Everest if he was told.
FIRST PATROL
Here’s another cheery Jock, called Rifle-
man John Kane, of Uddingston, Lanarkshire.
He was a riveter before he was called up,
and he has been in the Army such a short
time that he still likes it.
He came out with the last draft and has
just been on his first jungle patrol.
“Aye,†he says, “it’s not a bad life. If you
were a Boy Scout you’d have to pay to stay
in a camp like this.â€
The planter who built the bungalow roun
which the company’s tents are pitched could
not stand his mother-in-law, so he built a
sound-proof annexe for himself. This is now
the company’s operations room.
The mother-in-law’s quarters are the
officers’ mess, and the sergeants have the
wide, verandahed family living-room.
They have got it, so well furnished that in
the tropical evenings they can sit there with
their feet up gazing at the moon over the
jungle just as if they were wealthy planters.
The camp has a Naafi with bottled beer at
about 1s. 2d. a pint, and you can get steak,
egg, chips, bread and butter for half a crown.

Card Vendors Annoy Shoppers
With Christmas just over a
month away, wayside vendors of
post cards have begun to crowd
the pavements in the city solicit4
ing purchases Beside crowding
the pavement, some stand in the
entrances to the stores, and cus-
tomers find it difficult to pass in
ana out of some of the stores.
Another type of nuisance to
shoppers is the vendor of smal
phials of “scented water†which
hey sell at exorbitant prices to
labourers who come to town on
Saturday afternoons — the only
possible time for them to do so
—and have to make hasty
purchases.
Besides selling their “scented
water†they also buy cheap cos-
tume jewellery which they re-
tail at more than three times the
cost price, and it is remarkable

only eriticism has been the sug-
gestion, supported by the appro-
priate Vestry, that the western
part of Christ Church should be
excluded from the municipal
area ahd incorporated in the
Southern District because it is
the wealthiest part of that Par-
ish. But surely this is not a co-
gent reason to ignore the princi-
ples of local government :n re-
spect of urban and rural areas.
They have different problems,
different needd, different amen-
ities, rates and bye-laws. The
failure tO appreciate this in the
past has led to the curious medley
of areas, We call “Bridgetown,â€
where each need seems to hav
been previded with its own
boundaries and haphazard manne
as the need arose. The City of
Bridgetown as defined by section
2 of the Bridgetown, Speightstown
and Holetown Act, 1891, is ai
electoral.area for the Genera!
Elections. The area definect unde
section 3(%) of the Act is the are:
to which certain building regula
tions apply. Certain sanitary bye-
laws made“by the Commissioner;
of Health-for St. Michael were ap.
plied “to another area defined i1
the bye-laws and called “City and
suburbs of Bridgetown.†A three
mile limft from Nelson’s Monu-
ment is the area in which the Fire
Brigade is supposed to operate
under section 3(3) of the Fire
Brigade Act, 1908. Under Regu-
lations made by the Board of
Health no human bodies or ani-
mals may be buried, with stated
exceptions, within an area of one
mile radius from Nelson’s Monu.
ment. Under the Public Health
Act certain provisions relating to
tenantries at one time applied to
Bridgetown and an area within
two miles of its boundary. The
Magisterial area is again different
and so is that of the Police. These
may not be all but are enough to
suggest that it is about time order
was brought of the chaos.
Not Deciding Factor
The wealth of an afea is not a
deciding factor im considering
whether it should be included in
an urban or a rural area, and you
will appreciate that the exclusion
of part of Christ Church from the
Southern District may reduce its
revenue but it will also reduce its
expenditure, For it is well known
that urban areas require more in
the way of expensive’ services,
and it would be hardly fair to
expect the inhabitants of St,
Philip to be rated to pay for re-
fuse disposal that might only
benefit "the people living in the
Hastings-area,
The division of the remaining,
largely rural, part of the Island
into twe Districts is a matter upon
whichethere is a considerable diff
erence of 6pinion, and even Sir
John Meude was not dogmatic,
His decision, which has been ac-
cepted bythe Government, is that
there sheuld be two. He felt that
if, with modern transport facilities
and good road communications,
one proposed to set up a system
in Barbados for the first time, the
number would probably be two
as being convenient in size and in
population, It is largely a question
of balance, the units must not be
too large but at the same time
they must not be so many as to
perpetuate the administrative
difficulties of the present system.
At the same time, even the rural
parts of the Island are, by com-
parison, thickly populated. Rural
areas that are thickly populated
and convenient in shape with good
road communications, make very
good units for the purposes of
public health, public assistance
and highways on a basis of a pop.
ulation up to about fifty thousand.
The Vestries have drawn. atten-
tion to the fact that in England
and Wales the average population
is very much lower, but this is
due partly to the need in England
of the boundary reform, which is
taking place, and partly to the
very sparse population in very
large tracts of the country where
units of larger populations are
offset by great distances.
There is something to be said
for the poe made by the Vestries
that social services can best be ad-
ministered .by those in closest
touch With local conditions, though
[ cannot aeeept as true that it will
necessarily" be administered with
greater justice, though I might
cecept—with greater imagination,
But Sir John Maude suggeste:
that . this could be met bh
statutory provision that each
Ccuncil should appoint local sub-
Committees for public assistance.
Much Less
In considering the size of
administrative unit and comparing
it with those of England and Wales,
we must remember that the ser-

vices to be operated by the pro-
posed Councils will be much less
In Barbados the local authorities
are not concerned with education,
police, water supplies, public
transport, library services, and so
om. There is therefore a lack of
complexity of the affairs of the
Council, and with the smaller vol-
ume of duties they can be respon-
sible for larger populations. With
such a small number of services to
be administered a multiplicity of
units of administration would be
an extravagance,
A criticism has been made, with
which I personally agree, that the
proposed names cf the rural Dis-
tricts, Northern and Southern, are
too unimaginative. It seems to be
the hall-mark of the modern de-
sire for efficiency that everything,
and everybody, must be labelled
with numbers or letters or desig-
nated by the cardinal points of
the compass. In Barbados we
have Highways 1, 2, 3 and so on,
and worse still “Schedule Aâ€,
“Schedule Bâ€, down to “Schedule
Zzâ€, and Magisterial and Police
Districts A, B, C, etc. In Britain
this vandalism is even worse, since
it destroys the ancient associations
that place-names preserve, To
take a single example, the road
from London to Dover was built
by the Romans in the first century
A.D. and is mentioned by them in
the Itinerary of Antoninus. It
became Casing Street in the Dark
Ages and part of the royal high-
way of Watling Street of medieval
England. For the Georgians it
was the famous Dover road along
which the stage coach rattled to
meet the Calais packet. But the
chill, dead hand of twentieth cen-
tury efficiency has ruthlessly strip-
ped it of its glamour—it becomes
“Trunk Route A.2.†Must we do
the same?
Crucial Aspect
I turned to one of the most cru-
cial aspects of the Bill—the quali-
fications for voting and for mem-
bership of the Councils, It is the
view of the Government that there
should be adult suffrage and the
qualification for membership of
the Council should be qualification
as an elector of the area, On this
question Sir John Maude writes
“It would be paradoxical to regard
the people of Barbados as fit to
take responsibility for their Island
affairs but not for parochial
affairs, it seems hardly less so to
treat a section of the population
as fit to vote for an Island Coun-
cil, but not for local Councils,â€
As Sir John’s remarks were made
in 1949 he was speaking in terms
of virtual adult suffrage, his argu-
ment is so much the stronger now
that adult suffrage is an accom-
plished fact.
The suggestion that the fran-
chise should be limited to those
who pay local taxes may be coun-
tered by the argument that as land
is rateable, landlords will have to
pay rates and when property is
leased will hand on the rates in
the rent, In this way the pocket
of virtually all will be effected,
and, either directly or indirectly,
will make their contribution to-
wards the costs of local Govern-
ment,
In considering the question of
the franchise it must be appreci-
ated that the views of the Gov-
ernment in this matter represent
the wish of the majority of the
people, for this is one of the mat-
ters contained in the programme
of the party elected with a major-
ity in the Other Place, and_ the
Government may be said to have
a mandate, And I would remind
you, Sir, that this Board passed
an Act in 1950 to grant adult suf-
frage for the General Elections,
and many would think it inconsis~-
tent to refuse to grant the same
privileges to the same people for
local government. There was little
opposition to the passing of the
principle of adult suffrage when
the Representation of the People
(Amendment) Act was debated
In a community in which every
adult member may vote in
national affairs, a system whereby
only 8% are registered as voters
for local affairs is indefensible,
Even Greater
The paradox would be even
greater if entitlement to stand for
membership of the Councils was
restricted, For it could mean that
a person might be returned as a
member of the Other Place, and
represent the people of the Island
in the affairs of the Island, but
be denied the right to represent
the people of his District in the
affairs of his own District.
The Bill also seeks to remedy
other weaknesses in the present
system. The West India Royal
Commission drew attention to the
inadequate control of the central
Government over the Vestries, and
the inadequate control of the Ves-
tries over the Boards they appoint-

ed. Under the Bill the Governor
makes certain senior appoint-
ments, the Governor-in-Exectitive
Committee is required to consent
to certain things, including the
estimates of revenue and expen-
diture of the Councils, to order
enquiries, and to make regula-
tions to provide administrative
machinery. The accounts of the
Councils are to be audited by the
Auditor General, These are super-
visory powers rather than man-
datory. .
This aspect of the Maude Report
and of the Bill has not received
the attention it deserves. The stat-
utory financial limitations of the
Vestries in the past have robbed
them of much of their effective
power, It is fundamental that
there should be one body in an
area with ultimate responsibility,
just as in central Government af-
fairs responsibility rests with one
body, the Governor-in-Executive
Committee, It is therefore neces-
sary that local government activi-
ties should be integrated and full
financial responsibility both in
revenue and expenditure must be
accepted by the parent body in
each area, This is clear from
paragraph 93 of the Report, but
its brevity has resulted in its im-
portance being overlooked.
No Responsible Body
A basic weakness of the present
local government system is tha!
there is no one responsible body
in a local government unit. I have
mentioned that the Vestry has no
control over most of its subsidiary
Boards, and that the Commission-
ers of Highways are little more
than spending agents for the cen-
tral Government, A tradition is
tending to establish itself that
even in matters essentially with-
in the purview of the local gov-
ernment, the cost of capital devel-
opment should be financed by the
central Government, that is, fin-
anced by the taxpayer as a whole
rather than by the ratepayer of
the district who benefits. This
attitude is more widespread than
is often realised. For example, a
correspondent in the Press recent-
ly criticised the central Govern-
ment for not including the build-
ing of an almshouse in the Five
Year Plan of Development.
To meet this and to avoid the
present unnecessarily complicated
tax system the Bill provides for
the Councils to levy a general rate
for the whole District assessed on
the annual value of the proverty,
a special rate for a specific pur-
pose in part of the District, trade
tax on profits accruing from a
trade carried on in the District,
and the power to raise loans with
the consent of the Governor-in-
Executive Committee to carry out
capital works,
Finally, I propose to refer to the
position of the Church, In its
petition against the passage of this
Bill, the Diocesan Synod, while
admitting the need for changes,
prays that they be carried out
without destroying the fabric of
the Vestry. I have indicated why
it is not possible to carry out the
changes in local government or-
ganisation within the Vestry sys~-
tem, and I do not see why it should
coneern the Synod as there is
nothing to prevent the Vestry
from continuing but attending to
its proper functions. In Britain
the Church and State have been
uneasy partners since the days of
the “turbulent priest,†and the
State has always been as jealous
of interference by the Church in
secular matters as the Church has
of interference by the State in
ecclesiastical dogma. As Sir John
Maude points out, the combina-
tion in a single body of ecclesias-
tical and civil function are incon-
venient and contrary to the
modern conception of the duties
of Church and State. Nor is there
any reason that the Rector of a
Parish should necessarily be the
most appropriate person to be the
leader and spokesman for secular
matters,
Provides Funds
The Bill provides for funds for
the Chureh for the maintenance
of property and for the payment
of salaries for Church officials.
There is no reason to suppose that
the relationship between the
Chureh and the Councils and the
Governor-in-Executive Committee
will be anything but cordial, nor
that these bodies will be less
generous.
In moving the second reading of
this important and controversial
Bill, I have not, as I mentioned at
the beginning, attempted to
catalogue its contents, but to set
forward the major points of
principle and controversy, and,
while drawing attention to op-
posing views, I have tried to show
tthe reasons why the Government
considers it in the interest of the |

community that this legislation
should be enacted. It has the
support of the people and while
one regrets for sentimental reasons
the passing of a very ancient
institution — sentiment is not
enough—the system must give way
to modern needs. And we know
that, in the advance along the
path of progress, the determina-
tion of this Council is always to
be a stepping stone and not a
stumbling block.
Sir, I beg to move that this
Bill be read a second time.â€
Hon. V. C. Gale said:
“I have considered very care-
fully this most important bill and
should like to make some obser-
vations on its provisions. I
speak from many years’ practi-
cal experience of the operation
of the present Vestry System
and, am now serving for the second
time as Churchwarden of the
Metropolitan Parish.
Not In Best Interest
I am of the opinion that the
division of the island into areas
instead ‘of parishes as at present
is not in the best interests of the
local government itself, nor the
people for whom it is adminis-
tered. It cuts across the demo-
cratic ideal by restricting rather
than increasing the number of
people who can take part in
local administration, It must be
remembered that distance stands
in relation to the size of the
country. Barbados is a_ small
but thickly populated island—
-one of the first five densely
populated spots on the earth with
approximately 1200 to the square
mile, Whilst the areas set out
in the. present Vestry system
might seer small, they contain
a large number of people. And
it is people that matter.
In Great Britain there are
many sub-divisions for the pur-
pose of local Government admin-
istration; there are County Coun-
cils, Municipal Councils, and
District Councils. This break-
ing down aims at giving the
residents of a particular district
a voice in the administration of
the affairs of that district,
The Bill before us today pro-
poses an opposite idea. The
present Vestry system has given
the people of this island an op-
portunity to serve their smali
communities in the parishes to
see that parochial affairs are
administered efficiently and
economically,
The chief function of the local
government in Barbados is the
relief of the poor and the fact
that the people who assist in that
administration know the people
and their conditions and their
needs, contributes to the success
of that administration. Its easy
functioning is largely due to the
number of people
time and energy

Units Small
I have visited several West
Indian colonies the past ten or
fifteen years and I will say here)
and now that the administration
of Poor Relief under the Vestry
system in Barbados is_ better
tran that under the Govern-
mental system in other colonies. |
The reason is not far to seek.|
Because the units are small the
members of administrative
bodies are able to maintain per-|
sonal touch with those for whom |
the system is administered—the
poor and needy.
Twenty years ago, it could have
been argued that Sanitation as|
administered by the Parochial
Bodies was inefficient because of
the lack of up-to-date methods.
That cannot be said today.
During the last 15 years, the
training of Sanitary Inspectors
has greatly improved and_ the
Sanitary Commissioners in every
parish are endeavouring, with
the limited revenue at their dis-
posal, to improve the sanitation
in their areas,
In the matter of the franchise,
this Bill provides that every
British subject of full age resid-
ing in the district will be entitled
to vote. I cannot agree with
this proposal for this reason:
In granting universal suffrage
for the election of the members
of the government of a country,
it is argued that all its citizens
pay some form of taxation. Those
who do not contribute directly,
do so in the form of customs and
