COLOURED MEN AND WHITE GIRLS

Police Officer And Physical Fear

The Common Serjeant (Mr. Cecil Whiteley, K.C.), at the Old Bailey coloured recently sentenced a man. Arthur Cox, aged 49, descri- bed of Mornington-crescent, N.W., to four years' penal servitude for living on the immoral earnings of two white women.

13

An inspector stated that since 1038 Cox had associated with girls of a certain type and got money from them through their physical fear of him.

The Common Serjeant-What is the reason for the attraction of a mah like this for young girls?

Inspector Benton-Lots of girls, especially from the country, go to cafés frequented by coloured men, and once they associate with a coloured man it is difficult to get them away. They will not have anything to do with white men. They are frightened of the colour- ed men and the physical tear seems to be an attraction.

The Common Serjeant -"Are there many of these coloured men in the West. End?

Inspector Benton-I should say hundreds. They gather in cafes and seem to do no honest work.

Reply To "Class Distinction"

Mr. C. M. Piiman, K.C., Chair- man of the Amateur Rowing As- sociation, recently explained the position regarding the possible al- teration of the Association's de- finition of an amateur,

The matter, it will be recalled. was raised in the House of Com- mons during a debate on physical fitness. Mr. Chuter Ede complain- ing of "class distinctions" in row- ing. It was then stated that those In "manual occupations" could not row at Henley Regatta.

This, Mr. Pitman said, is the re- sult

definition of an of the amateur. which has been held In- dependently by Henley Regatta authorities since 1879 and by the Rowing Association since its forma- tion three years later.

It was originally intended to guard against the beneat which it was supposed that muscle acquired during daily manual labour might conter on competitors

"We shall not do anything," Mr. Pitman said, "without discussing the question with the committee of The case is not, Henley Regatta. perhaps, qulte so straightforward as it appears Many of us think that we have succeeded in keep- ing rowing as the 'cleanest' of ali amateur sports.

"I cannot express any opinion on the matter while it is still under consideration." he added. "but

may I put it that there is a large body of opinion which wishes to keep rowing in its present position. even if the means are perhaps not altogether logical?"

Mr. Beyfus said he then carried on the practice in the name ut Beyfus and Beyfus. The practice had steadily declined since his uncle's death.

In 1936, with the ubject of Im- proving his financial position, he took premises in Regent-street for use as a night club known as the Paradise. He spent approximately £3,000 in building alterations, re- decorating and furnishing.

Limitation Of Navies

SIR S. HOARE'S APPEAL TO POWERS

Sir Samuel Hoare. First Lord of the Admiralty, was the principal guest at the annuni dinner of the Royal Corps of Naval Constructora, held at the Hotel Victoria recent- ly. Mr. S. V. Goodall, the Direc- tor of Naval Construction, was in the chair.

Sir Samuel Hoare said that while he was convinced that we in Great Britain, with our long ex- perience and traditional zkill, should be well qualified to keep our place among the designers of warships, none the less he looked the with grave apprehension at possibility of unrestricted competi tion and unlimited design. Hlther- to the naval Powers had, since the Washington Treaty. agreed upon certain limitations: Upen the whole. while this or that Power, including ourselves, might have found cause for criticism in some particular agreement, that limita- tion had been good for the world and had been in the interests of each of the naval Powers He would regard it as a great calamity if the lesson of these years was lost upon the naval Powers, and If the experience that we had gained from them waA not used for the future.

That was the reason why he had been so anxious to see the pro- posals carried into effect that

were

accepted by the United States, ourselves, and France in the Naval Treaty discussions in 1936. These proposals would have two invaluable results. They would impose a limit upon the size and armament of the bigger ships and 'they would dissipate suspicion and. avert panic among the naval Powers by making certain, through the Interchange of information, that no new type of ships would secretly and suddenly be construct- ed by any of the naval Powers. These were two invaluable ad- vantages in the interests of each. of the naval Powers,

GREAT BRITAIN AND JAPAN "We know," he said, "the reasons that

certain prevented.

naval Powers acceding to the treaty. They were reasons of prestige; they were reasons of politics. I am here to-night to say no word of criticism against any of the naval Powers. I blame no country for taking action that it thinks best in its own interests. I feel,

however, as the Minister respon- sible for one of the great, Navies of the world, that I should be lacking in my duty K I did not. ask the other naval Powers to think once again of the almost Intolerable burden that will be placed upon all our shoulders if some restriction is not placed upon the size and armament of warships and If some restriction 113 not placed upon the building of new types."

were

So far as Great Britain was concerned we should welcome the opportunity of ratifying the Lon- don Treaty. We had delayed our ratification not because we not anxious to carry its proposals into effect, but because. We felt that it was necessary first to en- Bure the accession of a suficient number of Naval Powers. So far as the other Naval Powers were concerned, the United States had already ratified the treaty. How satisfactory It was to note that the chapter of Anglo-American rivalry on the sea was for ever closed How satisfactory it was to note that just as Americans no longer criticized our naval programme, so there was no one here who would criticize theirs.,

There were also other satisfac- tory features that must not be Ignored. It was satisfactory that the Anglo-German Agreement had prevented & repetition of the Anglo-German rivalry upon the sea that жад so formidable a feature of the years before 1914, and so far as he could judge there was no reason why Great Britain and Japan, two. ocean Empires, should not resume the friendly relations that were so satisfactory a festure of former years. He was supported in that hope by the encouraging fact that an unfor- tunate incident which had recent- ly clouded the atmosphere between our two countries. had "now been satisfactorily settled..

Upon the naval Powers rested a heavy responsibility. They must avoid unlimited and suicidal com- petition. While there was still -time, let them make every effort to avert from the world an almost intolerable burden, and let them. show on the sea, on the land, and in the air, that it was' posable to make international agreements and to maintain them in the interests of themselves and the world,
