WASHINGTON (ANP) The , sources of 1 ;wi ,n the i Creoles and East Indians residing in Trindidad, West Indies, were vividly outlined by Mrs. Pear) 11. Ramcharan-Crowley at the recent meeting of the American Anthro pological Association meeting here. Trindidad has long prided itreif on its ‘‘melting pot” of races, said Mrs, Crowley, which calpsor.ians describe as "dwelling together in unity," Tim population of this Is land consists of 400,000 Negroes, lo cally termed "Creoles," 250,000 East The Original CAROLINA TYPEWRITER CO.

TENSIONS HAVE INCREASED | Tensions have increased sharply between the Creoles and East In dians during the past few years. One source of unrest was caused by fear of economic security based upon employing ccr.-.pciition by Indians cane laborers. There is also a relatively small amount of contact between ihe two ! I groups. This is thought to exist j I because of their two distinct cul- j j lures. The latter suggestions has j i been questioned by dueators whose j ' research reveals that the cultural j ! variation is not necessarily based ! ‘ upon race. Mrs. Crowley's field i study and life experiences in Trim J diad suggest that the Creoles and 1 Indians now share a common cul- | ture in such vital aspects as lan- t gun re, nolitieal institutions, social i structure, dress, cuisine, folklore j music, art, festivals, magic practice j educational system and even in religion and family structure. But j this relationship has been marked j by some restraint, particularly or ' ; the part of the Indians. TRINIDAD LONG UNDEVELOPED Because Trinidad remained un- j ! developed for such a long time lo- j cal Creole culture lacked a deeply j | rooted tradition. As a result they j ; felt free to borrow from every j I source at their disposal such as the j i British and “Yankee” soldiers j | sailors, tourists and film stars. As * i a result the dark-skinned lower ; j class Creoles found themselves ■ ! dominated, by foreign and local; I whites and even by a few colored ■ “traitors to their people,” as early ns World War I. This aroused within them a resentful attitude. It Pays To ADVERTISE : T&uj'l^exih^ Atlas Sewing Center 208 S« Wilmington Street Yes, We All Talk By Marcus H. Boulware raß.Afil.Na MOTIONS QUESTION: Is it correct to say, ‘1 motion that, etc.?'* Mrs. P. L ANSWER To say, “I motion that," is something similar to say ing “I is” in good conversation. The person proposing a motion should raise and address the chair. When recognized, he should say: "Mr. chairman, I move that this organization donate $25.00 to the Christmas Slocking Fund.” It should note that the proper phraseology reads, i move that” ON FLOOR The writer of this column has heard Hits sort nt thing done in many meetings.
