bados conjures up dreams of a vacation among tropical palms waved by the warm Trade Winds. But that's not the reaction of Mr. G. H.

Although many folks don't real- ise it. the island of Barbados, said Mr. King in an interview recently, is one of the most high- ly agriciilturally developed lands in the Western Hemisphere.
