ANGLO-EGYPTIAN SUDAN.
IMMENSE DEVELOPMENT SCHEME.
This year marks the beginning of a new period in the economic history of the Sudan, says the Times. In July next the great Sennar Dam on the Blue Nile will be complèted, and the stofel waters will by spread by a vast irrigation scheme over the fertile plain between the two Niles. The assured success of this great cottonigrowing enterprise is due to the patient administration and sound development in the past quarter of a century. In 1909 the foundry, ravaged by
famine and years of
the tyranny despotic Mahdisra, might well have justifled General Gordon's descrip- tion as a worthless possession. How well. the task of building upon this desolation has been accomplished is best illustrated by the trade figures. In 1913 the value of external trade had risen from prac- tically nothing to £3,600,000, and at the end of 1924 it was valued at £9,500,000.
O the many exports of the Sudan, cotton has of recent years. become the. inost valuable. Grown by pump irriga
tion on the Nile, in the deltas of Kassala and Tokar and as a rain crop, the re- turns have fully justified the immense development schemes now in process of completion. The total cost of the Damn, the main canal, and the whole Gezira canalization scheme for the production of cotton, is estimated at £13,000,000, these funds being raised under guarantee by the Imperial Government, Up to the end of 1993, the total expert of cot ton from the Sudan averaged about 20,000 bales of 400lb weight per annum. In 1994, 46,000 bales were exported. It is anticipated that after this year, the Gesira sebeme, should add a further 60,000 bales, and other development schemes give a further 70,000 bales. In course of time, the country can look for- ward to an annual production of 1,000,000. bales of lint cotton.
The Sudan supplies two-thirds of the world's requirements of gum arabic Twenty-one thousand tons were exported in 1994, and it is anticipated that this export will increase to 30,000 tons an- nually. Other valuable exports, ar millet, ground nuts, sasme, cattle, sheep, and ivory. The southern provinces. abound in natural products waiting only the progress of modern transport to bring them to the world's markets. Port Sudun, apme: 700 miles south of Suez. is well served by numerous steamship companies, and is visited annually by some 2,000,000 tona of shipping. "An ex- tension of, the harbour to accommodate the increasing tonnage is in course of construction. One thousand seven hundred and ten miles of railway serve the northern, and central provinces, while the southern provinces are connected with the railway by several thousand miles. of inland waterways.
THE STRENUOUS AGE." (BT SIR SIDNEY LOW;].
Curzon has gone and now Milner, and England has lost two of the three most typical and distinguished products of balliot in the great Balliol period of the 'seventies and 'eighties of the" last tentury. The third member of the trium- virate, Lord Oxford. is still ameng us. and still full of energy and vigour, though he was born two years before Lord Milner and seven years before Lord Curzon
In those years of Jowett's mastership Balliol had a position unique among the colleges of either university. It was train- ing the youths who a little later were to be the country's rulers and administrators. Among these young gentlemen-there were only about 200 in residence-was one destined to become Prime Minister of England: two others, George Nathaniel Curzon and a little later. Edward Grey, who were to be Foreign Secretaries, and various others; who in due coursé held other Cabinet and Ministerial offices; coming diplomatists and Ambassadors like Rennell Rodd and Arthur Hardinge; C. P. Lucas, who was to guide the British Empire from Downing Street as Perman- ent Secretary to the Colonial Office, and Sir Courtenay Ilbert, India legislator and parliamentary draftsman; eminent lawyers und judges like J. A. Hamilton, new Lord Sumner and a whole contingent of writers and scholars. There were famous athletes, too, for Balliol in those days was noted for its rowing and running as well as its reading.
Why, it may be asked, should this com paratively smali dendemic community have fostered such an exceptional amount of versatile talent"
The credit is largely due to Jowett, the most famous of Oxford heads of colleges. He believed in Billior and caused Balliof mea to believe in themselves. I'm the master, nice's the college. But it was a belief founded on hard work and strenu ous effort. Balliol, under Jowett, had no room for shirkers. It would not admit thepassmen." the students who just Aanged to scramble through their ex- aminations. Every Balliol undergraduate was expected to read for honours. Balliol open scholarships were regarded as a kind of academic blue ribbon, and the pick of the public schools entered for them. Jewett did not merely want young fellows who could gain first-classes and university prizes. He looked out for the men of daracter as well as brains, the future leaders in public and professional life, and had a distinet, flair for promis- ing members of the governing classes, the Curzons, Greys, Brodricks, and others. who found in Balliol a certain purposeful seriousness not perhaps so noticeable at Christ Church, the older academic nursery of the British aristocracy.
Balliol, an developed by Jowett doubt cu serious. Its hostile crities for it was not universally loved-called it priggish; and, the "Balliol manner " and the Balliol mind have been the sub- jects of many gibes. Nevertheless, the college of Asquith, Milner, and Curzon was a fine school for capable men, and the intellectual and social life of our time, the administrative and political services of Britain and the British Empire have owed much to it.
