IN PLEA FOR GUADALo UP i'l
Henry Beranoer, French Senator, Sees
Great Future for Colony In
the Antilles.

4, Paris. Henry Beranger, the French
senator representing Guadaloupe. the
French island colony in the Lesser An
titles group In the Atlantic. has issued
a public appeal in behalf Of that isl
and, which he has just visited.
Senator Beranger foresees a great
Industrial and agricultural future for
Guadalupe. but he declares that the
island is now too heavily burdened
with taxes. IS ..s ss2
He points out that in the last ten
years the population has increased
from 1S0, 900 to 100000, and Guada-
sloupe has maintained her output OF
sugar. the coffee production has
tripled and the production of fruit
favorings has steadily mounted.
What Guadalupe needs, says Sen
ator Beranger, is q chance to work BY
herself and for herself. She needs to
be freed from excessive taxes levied
by the mother country and the great
variety of fiscal charges which stine
the efforts of planters and fishermen
and which together constitute bur
den which discourages the admirable
enthusiasm of the islanders to develop
into a successful and brilliant colony.
