BETTER FOR FUTURE -- street and There is some merit in keeping Wage Boosts Recommended | By CSL Board OTTAWA (CP) -- Wage in- creases for 900 employees of Canada Steamship Lines are rec- ommended unanimously in the report of a federal eonciliation board The workers, members of the Brotherhood of Railway and Steamship Clerks (CLC), are em- ployed at company terminals in Quebec City, Montreal, Toronto, Hamilton, Sarnia, Windsor, Port Arthur and Fort William. The board proposed an in- crease of seven cents an hour retroactive through the 1958 navigation season and another of seven cents for the 1959 season. The company had argued that no wage changes should be made now because of uncertainties fac- ing its future operations as the result of the coming opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway. The board consisted of chair- man H. Carl Goldenberg, Mont- real lawyer: Ross Drouin, Que- bec City lawyer named by the company, and Joseph H. Fine, Montreal lawyer and union nom- inee.

WHITNEY NEW YORK (AP)--Things are moving swiftly in darkest Africa. Map makers are having a hard time keeping abreast of changes south of the Sahara as former lonies gain ind and others fight for it. Outbreaks of violence and spreading discontent in widely separated African dependencies of European powers foreshadow acceleration in the struggle for self-rule by African peoples. Since Jan. 1 there has been news of trouble and strife, much of it serious and some of it aimed against colonial regimes, in such areas as the Belgian Congo, Rho- desia, Somalia, Nyasaland, the French Congo and the Union of South Africa. There is little doubt ent since 1847. William V. Its president is 8. Tubman. Sudan -- Proclaimed an in- dependent republic Jan. 1, 1956, ending the former British-Egypt- fan joint rule.

In 1960, according to present sched- ules, four more countries in this area will become independent. The last few months have seen cataclysmic changes in the French empire in Africa. Almost all French territories south of the Sahara have become semi-auton- omous republics and acquired a broad degree of control over their internal affairs. Here is the status currently of the most important countries, colonies and areas of Africa south of the Sahara: Northern Rhodesia, and Nyasa- land. Europeans number about|i 300,000 out of about 8,000,000 but hold the bulk of the seats in the federal assembly. Nyasaland fac- tions led by Dr. Hastings Banda --now in a detention camp--want to get out of the federation. Fast Africa--A purely admin- istrative unit made up of Kenya, Tanganyika and Uganda. Of these three, Tanganyika is ad- ministered by Britain under UN trusteeship while Kenya and Uganda are colonies with limited self-government. Kenya was the centre of the Mau-Mau rebellion of the early 1950s, and there have been some rumblings that an- other such anti-white drive may be in the making. Bech land --A protectorate 1.

Belgium has one rich and important colony -- the Belgian Congo, scene of riots in January which quieted when the Belgian government promised future in- depenence to the territory, with- out setting any date, and voting rights in 1959. One small corner of the Congo territory, Ruanda- Urundi, is held under a UN trus- teeship by Belgium. Three other African territories deserve mention: Somalia--A UN trusteeship un- der Italian administration, sched- uled to receive independence in 1960. It is a former Italian eol- ony.
