London March 2G.-with references
to the suggestion that Great Britain
should pay part of it's debt to tbs
United States by transferring its West
Indian possessions IL you lock only at
the map and at questions of trade In

for the union of the West Indies with

to Justify the proposal
But all this leaves out of account the
psychology and sociology OF the is

history of West Indian life. And
cannot help thinking that those are
matters of profound importance-mat-
ters which must be taken very serious
ly into consideration.
Take Jamaica. for instance. II ~ a
small island. but its population Is only
a little less than that of New Zealand.

ion both as "Janaicans" and as mem
hers of a state in the British empire.
Emphatically the West Indies do not
wish to be united with any other ma
ton. The different isla nds have their
own national sense. and I do not see
why, with wise British craftsmanship
to guide the development. it should not
pass into a West Indian national sense.
so that all the islands would become
part OF one nation--a nation which
might include British Guiana as we'll
A little while ago l received accounts
of the recent elections OF members Of
the Jamaica council. There are four
teen constituencies In Jamaica, and in
all of them the black and coiored vote
greatly predeminatea But the mem
bsrs returned were-and / speak with
my own knowledge OF the men--in all
cases the best of the candidates pat
forward.
Some of them we're white. some SOL
ored, and some black. In the ease OF
two constituencies where the black
voters are overw helminsiy In the ma
jority. black candidates were put tor

neither case were they returned. And
the council as it stands today does not
represent in a fair and admirable fash
ion the different peoples of the island.
So long as Great Britain retains the

them when ether nations are in trouble
over the race question. They can study
the results which have been obtatnei.
Merely as an example Of tn way In
which the relations Of black and white
can be arranged, the West Indies have
value to the British empire which
can hardly be expressed in terms al
money.
And, of course America is mot alto
gether happy over the color question
at present That is not a matter on
which one cares to play much, buA
every body knows that the color prob
lem Is very real one In the States
just now, And it is at least possible
that if the West Indies were handed
over to the States. the antagonisin
might revive In them and the fruits Of
years of patient work would be lost
As A matter of fact, this proposal
could hardly have come at . mare In
opportune time. There was a time
when the West Indies had grievance
against Great Britain. The SUGAR
bounties did infiict injury upon thcrs
and they resented II. But that trouble
was removed by the Brussels conven-t
ton. and since then the trade relations
Of the West indies with Great Britain
have been comparatively untrouhled. |
Since the war, many English people
have, so TO speak, discovered the West
pie have gone to the islands than ever
before in my knowledge. Some have
simply gone for holiday. but many
have gone with the idea of settling.
If the proposal to sell the islands to
America had been made twenty or
thirty years ago. it might not have
seemed SO extraordinary. but IL ono
thing is more certain than another. IL
is that it would meet today with the
strongest opposition from the people
most commemorative West Indians
themselves.
