Islands to Have Sell-Government - In Near Future

M‘. PIERRE et BIQUEON, Dec. 1o-(C.P.)-,Autoncmy grows c1090!‘ for these French isYands after al- most 300 years of rule from an- other continent. . .

with p. hibition the revenue dwind- led away to practically nothing, un- til now the French government is faced with underwriting a heavy annual deﬁcit for its oﬂspﬂng across the sea.

Under the new scheme, it will continue to help; but the ﬁnancial aid will be cut down drastically. The public‘ service will be complete- ly reorganized. Many high-salaried oﬂlciels will g0. Eﬂlciency will be increased all along the line. Frances only ‘rein on the colony will be a comptroller, who will watch expenses but will have no administrative power. Partially-dis- closed plans cf the home govern- ment indicate the power wiil‘be vested in an elected Commission of seven men. From among their num- ber, they will chooze their presi- dent, who wl'.l carry out the func- tions of the present governor. There will be five "substitute" members. .

If the (‘Jommimim finds itself unable to choose a president, it is understood, the French government will appoint one of its own. At the same time, it will drop the ‘NOD08- ed office of comptroller and the ‘ members plan appointing instead four departmental heads to act with the president as its Mp- resentatives in the Bwemment. Scent dimculty, though, is ex- peeled in the choice of a president once the commission is elected. But even should the alternate plan be effected, the islanders would still remain in control of their govern- ment. Their seven representatives would give them the final say on all questions of policy.

It will be a strange new ether- ience for the islanders. rm- centur- ies now, they have, lived and died in the tradition that their laws came from across the Atlantic.

The next day the bodies of the two policemen were found. They had been killed. and the prisoners had stolen their car and escaped. The fugitives travelled west, and a robbery out the Police on their trail. Finally they were cornered in the mountains and in the encoun- ter two more Mounted Police were killed by bandits‘ bullets-Con- ltlble 0- O. Harrison and Sergt. r. R. Wallace.

BermudiisﬂWary Since Golonys First Fatality

HAMILTON, Bermuda, Dec. l0- (CPJ-Grown more wary since this colony had the first automobile fatality in its history on Septem-' ber 3. legislators are now more de- termined than ever to keep Ber- muda a “motorless paradise.”

When the war Department re- quested that military authorities be permitted to use motor lorries for transportation - purposes, the House of Assembly turned thumbs down with the same firmness it re- fused the Governor permisdon to have an automobile for oﬂicial use.

S. S. Toddings, one of the mem- bers taking part in the brief dis- cussion which the War Depart- ment's request occasioned, told the House he had just returned from a visit to the United States where he had “anything but a pleasant time" due to the number of cars.

He added criticism of the Trade Development Board for advertis- ing Bermuda. as a. "motor-lash Eden,” which he said-it was not. The only motor vehicles in the col- ony, though, are s. very few oper- stcd by the Department of Public Works to keep the roads in ‘good condition.
