The all-Negro cabinet sworn in Jan. 16 by Governor Sir Ralph Grey was the first non- white government in the 300-year history of the Bahamas as a British colony. Whites always had controlled the political life and most of the economy of the string of 3.000 tropical islands off the Florida coast, The election Campaign was dominated by controversy over alleged gangster influence in the casino on+Grand Bahamas Island. The opposition parties also accused the former government of electoral gerrymander- ing and clainved this tourist playground's economy was dominated by a powerful group of white businessmen known as The Bay Street Boys. : But new Premier Lynden 0. Pindling, 36-year-old leader of the Progressive Liberal party which largely represents the numerically - domant Negro population, made clear his gov- ernment would maintain the private enterprise atmosphere of the Bahamas. Pindling also said he did not intend to request independence from Britain, which looks after the Bahamas' defence and for- eign affairs. The islands are in better shape to become. independent than most other British Carib- bean colonies because they are more advanced politically and economically. The Bahamas have enjoyed a form of representative govern- ment since the middle of the 18th century and attained in- ternal self-government in Jan- uary, 1964. 3ut the Bahamas are not in- volved in a British government plan to' make a group of eastern Caribbean island colonies self- governing states in association with Britain, with the right to declare themselves independent if they wished. This plan involves Antigua, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia and St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla. The view in London is that the Bahamas, relatively well off as a result of dollar tour- ism and foreign investment, would not want constitutional links with the less-developed islands involved in the associ- ated status plan. Only 20 of the 3,000 are inhabited, small cays and rocks. The population rose 65 per cent from 1953 to an estimated 121,428 at the end of 1963. By December, 1964 it had reached 138,500. t j ' uy islands the rest being~ Goalkeepe: City News Obits--13 Sports--6, Theatre-- Weather--2 Whitby, Ajox--5 Women's--10 ¢ Shines As Crushmen Win--P. 6 Church News Pages 8, 14, 15 Anny Landers--10 --9 Classified 11, 12, 13 Comics--20 Editorial--4 CENTENNIAL More than be spent on tennial proje 7 18 palities.
