. Divisions among Conserva-
tive MPs and in the Cabinet
over the issue of capital
punishment appear likely to be
mirrored in the debate on a far
tougher sentencing policy for
murderers which win follow the
decisive rejection of the death
penalty this week.

possibility of parole , for those
convicted of many categories of
murder.

Secretary, for the introduction
of mandatory sentences, . a

would have the support of some
ministers. This would, however,
be -strongly opposed by- others,

Lord Chancellor, because of the
removal of discretion from the

with no question of parole at
anytime.
Some ministers would ve-
hemently object to such legis-
lation. They would argue that it
would cause -immense difficult-
ies in running primn* jf they
were- regarded as purely penal
and not reforming institutions,
and if it was impossible ever to
release' some prisoners, what-
ever the circumstances.
For similar reasons they would
reject mandatory-sentences, but
the MPs who favour the
proposal were heartened by Mr
Bnttan’s apparent support for a.
minimum 20-year sentence for
the murder of police officers.
In last Wednesday's Com-
mons debate Mr Brittan
that since 1965 16 adults had
been convicted of tho murder of
policemen. Most had been
subject, to- the recommendation
of a judge that they should serve
a minimum sentence ran g in g
from between 15 and 30 years.
He then pledged: . “I s hall
ensure that cases where no
minimum recommendation
been made are treated in
substantially the same way as
those where such a recommen-
dation was made. The expec-
tation must be that all sue*
murderers serve at least 20
years, and that some may never
be released."
Mr Vivian Bendafl, Con-
servative MP for Ilford, North,
said yesterday that minimum
sentences should be written into
the law. “They can no longer
simply be left to the judiciary.’'

Mr Brittan: First official
visit to a police station.
0 Mr Brittan yesterday paid
his first official visit as Home
Secretary to a police station
when he spent two hours at the
East Dulwich area headquarters
in south London (Rupert
Morris writes).
He said that he received a
warm welcome. The 120, 000-
strong Police Federation is
overwhelmingly in favour of
hanging and is now a
meeting with Mr Brittan to
review the whole criminal
justice system.
Mr Brittan said that while he
favoured maximum contact
between police and public, he
was opposed to direct political
control by local police com-
mittees.
Deputy *. Assistant Com-
missioner Robert Hunt said
after Mr Brittan’s visit: “We are
much more conscious of mak-
ing better use of the manpower
resources we have got. This is
part of Sir Kenneth Newman's
overall campaign to give the
public the sort of police service
they want” .

Tho270 striking members of
foe.National Graphical Associa-
tion (NGA) at the Financial
Times decided yesterday to risk
disciplinary action by the TUC
when they ignored an . appeal
from Mr Lcn Murray, TUC
general secretary, to call off the
six-week dispute.
- The men toe* no formal
decision leaving that to foe
union’s national council which,
meets next Thursday, but
according to officials the mood
of foe meeting was against
cooperating with Mr Murray's
request
The TUC general secretary
had urged foe NGA to accept
the •finding s of the independent
'mediator, who ruled that the
management's pay offer of
£304.67 a week for foe 24
machine managers should' not
be increased, and that negor
nations on other items should
be reopened.
Mr Bryn _ Griffiths, NGA
president, said after foe two-
hour meeting yesterday: “The
decision will rest with the.
national council, but we may
have to ignore Mr Murray’s
letter. If we do that! we will be
prepared to go to the finance
and general purposes committee
to explain our actions.”
That was a reference to foe
likely course to be adopted by
Mr Murray • if Thursday’s
meeting rejects his advice. The
committee, foe TUC"s “inner
cabinet”, comprises senior lead-
ers of the union movement and
steps directly into industrial
disputes only when other
methods have failed.
Should foe NGA be called to
appear before foe committee on
Monday week, it would be
expected to accept whatever
advice the committee hands
down or risk being suspended
from membership of the TUC
or, in foe final resort, expelled.

The Government appeared
last night to have headed off a
substantial rebellion by its
backbenchers in foe Commons
next week by accepting a
compromise formula which will
take foe salary of MPs up to
£18.500 over five years and link
it thereafter to a comparable
Civil Service grade.
Under the plan, hammered
out late on Thursday night after
.Tory, backbenchers had voiced
their furious disapproval at foe
Government's 4 per cent offer
and the manner in which it had
been handled. MPs would
receive a 5.5 per cent increase,
taking their salary from £14,510
to £15.308. b a ck d a te d to June
22, with four equal increments
to fblow on January I in each of
foe next four years.
The increase wiD be offset by
a reduction in foe proposed new
secretarial and research assist-
ance allowance, from £13,000 to
£11,000, and a further 1 percent
increase in the contribution
MPs make to their pensions.
The Government had originally
proposed an 8 per cent pension
contribution, a 2 per cent
increase.
If foe new formula is
approved it will be 9 per cent.
The “real” increase in pay,
taking account of foe pension
contribution, will be less than
2.5 per cent, but it seemed likely
last night that most Tory MPs.
some of them with reluctance,
would accept foe deal.
The most revolutionary
component, and the one that
most commends it to MPs. is
foe proposal foal from 1987
MPs' salaries should be linked
to an appropriate Civil Service
grade, which will mean avoid-
ing foe annual embarrassment
of fixing their salaries. The plan,
however, envisages a vote early
in' each new Parliament on foe
principle of linkage.
Amendments incorporating
the new proposals were tabled
yesterday in foe name of Mr
Edward du Cann, chairman of
the 1922 Committee, who on
Thursday night drew up foe
compromise in consultation
with the 1922 executive, Mr
John Wakeman, foe chief whip,
and Mr John Bitten, foe leader ]
of foe Commons.
Mr Wakeman informed Mrs
Margaret Thatcher of the
proposals, which she is under- 1
stood to be willing to accept
because they combine restraint
with foe move towards a more
satisfactory long-term method
for dealing with parliamentary i
pay.
Much of foe anger which
erupted at the 1922 Committee
had centred on pay than on

because treauments“at physical,

completely worthless or harm-
ful”
Prince Charts, who had “no
hesitation” in accepting the
invitation to open foe centre,
went on: “So much depends on
marshalling the psychological
and spiritual forces of the

A fundamental ‘factor was
that there were some wonderful,

could help those who found
themselves suffering from ter-

“Such an approach might be

The protest was aimed to

Mr Wedd told the hearing
that there had been delajsTn

From Richard Ford,
Londonderry
As the five latest victims of
Ulster’s violence were buried
yesterday, a Church of Ireland
bishop -called -for an end to
sectarian .attacks aimed at
driving people from their
homes.
The ominous trend 4f stone
.and .petrol-bomb attacks on
Protestant and Roman Catholic
homes has continued through-
out, the week, and the death of
four Ulster Defence Regiment
members in a Provisional IRA
- lamdmine blast in co Tyrone on
Wednesday has increased ten-
sion.
Roman Catholic families
have been attacked. And there
has been retaliation agginst
Protestants which has destroyed
homes, forced people to move.'
and increased communal fear.
Hours after old people’s flats
had bees badly damaged by
Roman Catholic youths in
Londonderry, the - Rt Rev Dr
Janies Mehaffey, Church of
Ireland Bishop of Deny and
Raphoe warned people against
being drawn into sectarian
attacks, threats and intimi-
dation. ■ - -■
“They must be condemned
without reserve. I utterly de-
plore the feci that people- and
their property in my diocese
were attacked in such a
cowardly way. Whether Prot-
estant or Roman Catholic, they
have the right to live in their
homes and to live in peace.”
He told - mourners - at the
funeral in Dunquia’ co Tyrone,
of Private John Rosbo rough,
aged 18. that people were
frightened by the attacks, but
everyone should try to heal
community divisions.
The bishop said the present
situation was too dangerous and
tragic for anyone to suggest new
political institutions before the
security problem was taickkd.
The considerable support for
Provisional Sinn Fein in the
general election left the im-
pression that many in Northern
Ireland favoured violence to
achieve their objectives.
He also urged representatives
from both sides of the com-
, inunity who believed in con-
stitutional. politics to come
together, saying the existence of
a New Ireland Forum in Dublin
and a Northern Ireland As-
sembly in Belfast indicated the
extent of foe impasse.

r Onc of tire earliest gear
mechanisms has been recog-
nized in material recovered
from a wreck off the coast of
Tunisia. Dating to (he first
century BC the gear seems to
have been for an oscfllating
water pump, perhaps to drain
the bilges of a ship.
The mechan ism was among
a . large - quantity of goods
recovered between 1908 and
1913 from the Mahdia wreck,
which are now in the Bardo
Museum in Toms. It consists
of three pairs of cylindrical
bronze boshes, with which arc
associated three lead swing
" wrights vrith scoops cast in
their ends. The device was
identified by Herr Gerhard
Kapltfln.
Four of the bronze bashes
hare toothed flanges, and
consist of two pairs, one 10cm
in diameter, the other 5cm
across. Those are the cog
wheels of the gear:
The two pairs of cog wheels
allowed propulsion and power
transfer in both directions,
indicated by the sloping cut of
the teeth: such a mechanism
was not thought Invented until
the seventeenth century.
The smaller cogs were moun-
ted in series on the driving
shaft, and the larger pair,
toothed around only half their
drcmnfcrence, on the powered
axle in opposition: aU four
cogwheels would be engaged
whichever direction the drive
shaft turned.
The third pair of bronze
bushes. 15cm in diameter, ted
- 12 equally spaced holes
around the flange. Those, Herr
Kapiton suggests, would con-
nect a pendulum to the gear:
the pend alum would end in one
of the lead swing weights,
which would scoop water as ft
was turned.
The lead scoops would have
been in a casing; and from the
Mahdia material in the Bardo
Museum, Herr Kapiton has
identified a large lead sheet
beat into a U shape, the width
corresponding to that of the
r scoops.
To swing the scoops in a
half-circle, the lever propelling
the drive shaft would turn the
shaft through 443 degrees;
that could be accomplished by
a lever which moved only 40
degrees on each side of the
vertical, and the weight of the
scoops would maintain a
-certain momentum ' which
would only need to be assisted,
once the device was working. .
The pomp could, however,
only raise water some 50-
60cm, aitd would hare been

Synod vote almost unanimous
Government urged to restrict
number of abortions
From Clifford Longley, Religions Affairs Correspondent. York
The reform and restriction of
the- law on abortion should be
an urgent government priority,
the General Synod of the
Church of Englan d declared
almost mtaninui iwly at its
meeting in York yesterday.
The final vote, 256 In favour .
wife two against, and fee tone
of many of the speeches,
showed that opinion in this
assembly has become some-
what more opposed to abortion
than on the two previous
occasions, both nearly 10 years
ago. when fee issue was last
debated.
Those debates were at a time
of public controversy caused by
parliamentary attempts,, to
change the law; fee synod now
wants the church to initiate a
fresh -public. debate, calling on
fee Government to be the agent
of change, no longer relying
upon private members’ motions.
The amended resolution
passed yesterday declared first
that “fife developing in -the- .
womb is created fay God In his
qWn image and is, therefore, to
be -nurtured, supported and
protected”.
It went on to “view with
serious concern" fee number
of abortions bow being per-
formed, recognized that there
was a case for abortion when
the life of the pregnant woman
was in dauger and urged the
Government to give priority to
amending the 1967 Abortion
Act.
The Rev Peter Chandler of
Winchester diocese was one of
fee few voices raised » pino
this very narrow restriction of
abortion, saying that it was not
an adequate balance between
the needs of the unborn and
fee born. Many Christians
would want to pot more
emphasis on the latter, he
said.
Mr Gerald O'Brien, of
Chelmsford diocese, who was
moving a motion on behalf of
his diocesan synod, said:
“Zygote, embryo, foetus, neo-
nate. schoolchild, adolescent
adult are jnst different phases
in the development of the same
human individnaL
Dr Blanche Tributes from
synod.
“Life is a intrinsic to the
human species. It is emphati-
cally not something conferred
upon as by society’ when we
reach a certain arbitrary size
or age.”
Earlier, the synod gave
general approval to a measure
by which women would be
permitted to be deacons. It did
not resolve fee question of
whether existing deaconesses
would have to be newly
ordained as deacons, bat
looked for die reconciliation of
various points of view by
careful drafting of fee ordi-
nation service.
The day's session began
with Hghthearted and glowing
tributes from leading members
of fee synod to the retiring
Archbishop of York, Dr Stuart
Blanch, who is one of its Joint
presidents.
The Archbishop of Canter-
bury, Dr Robert Runcie, fee
other president, wittily praised
his “ability to travel light,
uncluttered by pomposityn,
and uncorrnpted by ecclesiasti-
cal clobber.” He called him “a
teacher of onr faith * beloved
fenraghont fee world”.
To load laughter and
applause. Dr Blanch replied:
“I have always said that the
best speeches I have ever
heard in this synod have had
nothing in do with the subject
in hand.” j
Falklands
play banned
by theatre
By Craig Seton
Attempts were being made
yesterday to find an alternative
venue in Plymouth, Devon, to
stage the highly-praised London
production of Falkland Sound.
a play which examines doubts
and disillusionment over fee
Falklands conflict, after a
decision to ban it from fee city's
Theatre Royal.
Falkland Sound is at fee
centre of a dispute between Mr
Max Stafford-Clark. artistic
director of the Royal Court
Theatre in London, who pro-
posed to stage it at the Theatre
Royal's studio theatre. The
Drum, and Mr Ralph Morrell,
chairman of fee Plymouth
theatre's board of management.
Mr Morrell said it was too
sensitive to show in a city which
provided 40 per cent of fee
servicemen for the Falklands
campaign because it could
distress those who lost relatives.
Mr Stafford-Clark said yester-
day that Mr Morrell, a solicitor
and Conservative councillor,
was being “over-protcctive’'and
he accused him of censorship.
He insisted that the Theatre
Royal would have been happy
to stage fee production until Mr
Morrell intervened, a suggestion
vigorously denied by Mr
MorreU. who' said fee decision
was ta to protect those bereaved
by fee Falklands conflict.
Falkland " Sound is based
largely on fee leners of Da rid
Tinker, a Royal Navy officer
who died in fee Falklands. and
interviews with others involved
in fee campaing who express
growing disillusionment.

Witness is
accused
by coroner
By Nicholas Timmins
The transcript of the inquest
into the death of Mr Nicholas
Ofusu is to be sent to the
Director of Pablic Pros-
ecutions after Dr Arthur
Davies, the Coroner, described
the evidence of one witness as
“suspect, untruthful and ma-
licious".
The 10-member jury at
Southwark Coroners Court in
London yesterday returned 8
unanimous verdict of misad-
venture on Mr Ofusu, aged 31,
who was born In Ghana. He
died from inhaling his own
vomit while in police custody
in May.
Dr Davies, in his summing
up, told the jury that five
independent witnesses had
said that no Improper force
was used by the police in
restraining Mr Ofaso. Only
one. Mr Gary Young, aged 21,
had criticized the police
behaviour.
In a statement taken by the
family's solicitors, B bn berg
and Company, who rep-
resented the Ofusu family
through Mr Panl Boateng, a
partner in the firm and
chairman of the Greater
London ConndTs police
committee, Mr Young was
alleged to have been “shocked
by the violence the police
nsed".
In court Mr Young said the
statement had not been read
back to him and that he had
not signed it.
Car discount war in
attacked as &e on m3
‘fool’s paradise’
By Clifford Webb, Motoring Correspondent
The discount price war
between car manufacturers,
which is threatening to reach a
peak next month, was attacked
yesterday as “a fool's paradise"
which can be resolved only if
the industry reduces pro-
duction. '
is a fool's paradise with over-
production at the root of the
problem."
Mr Ronald Sewell, chairman
of Sewells and Associates, the
motor trade consultants, said:
“Without exception, all dealers
are seriously worried about the
situation. The discounting tech-
niques the manufacturers are
using are forcing the traders
into a position where it will be
more profitable for them to sell
used cars than new ones.
"Although those not in the
industry may feel gratified to
learn that British car makers are
pushing up output, the situation
He said it was time the
industry reassessed production
and marketing. “Dealers are
being crushed unde r mountains
of metal which they cannot shift
without jeopardizing their own
profitability. This could ulti-
mately weaken the manufac-
turers themselves if dealers are
forced out of business."
As reported in The Times
yesterday, the prospect of the
biggest August car market -
over 320,000 vehicles - has led
to a sharp increase in manufac-
turers' discounts, bonuses, and
prizes for their dealers. It could
cost manufacturers up to £50m
by the end of next month.

GLC police
plan dead
and buried
HOUSE OF COMMONS
The Greater London Council
proposal to take over London's
police was dead and buried -
finished as a result of the general
election. Mr David Mellor, Under
Secretary of State, Home Office,
declared m the Commons. They
could, with a lighter heart, he
continued, move on to discuss more
constructive and profitable issues
about London policing.
He was replying to a debate in
which Mrs Marian Roe (Brox-
boumc, O. a member of the GLC,
had said in her maiden speech that
the objective of the GLC was to
promote a crisis in Metropolitan
Police morale and in public
confidence so that like the wolf in
sheep's clothing, it could lake over
control of the force.
She moved a long resolution.
which the House agreed to, noting
‘ "es oi
with grave concern “the activities
those who, in their campaign to
bring the police under political
control, seek to undermine police
authority in a manner directly
contrary to the democratic prin-
ciples of independent policing and
are wilfully unresponsive to public
disquiet over the rising crime rate".
The resolution urged the Govern-
ment to give statutory encourage-
ment to genuine efforts at
community liaison which could
promote public confidence in the
police and facilitate the cooperation
necessary for the improved detec-
tion and prevention or crime.
Mis Roe said Sir Kenneth
Newman,. Metropolitan Polioe
Commissioner, had said in his
recent report "The political cam-
paign in some pans of London is
inimical to progr es s in policing”.
Behind Sir Kenneth's comment,
restrained by the necessarily neutral
stand he must take (she said) is a
real and justified fear about (he
future of an effective and indepen-
dent police force in our society. It. is
about a sustained campaign to
undermine police authority.
The GLCs recent record hardly
recomended it as a keeper of the
public purse, but the proposal to
establish political control over
police operations and appointments
was even more insidious. Claims
about ihiS' being done in the name of
democratic accountability sounded
plcasam but would be in reality
nothing other than thinly disguised
political control.
She did not pretend that all was

relations. Successes like the borough
liaison committee in Lambeth
should be extended to all boroughs
and given statutory backing: Powers
of search and arrest were in a
chaotic stale and needed clarifying
and modernizing. But a crisis -in
policing was more likely to be
created by political ambitions than
by the facts of Sir Kenneth's report.
Far from even supporting the
police in their work, the GLC was
effectively obstructing progress for
political ends in a manner which
wilfully disregarded obvious public
concern over rising crime rates.
The tradition of an indepe nd ent
and impartial police force (she said}
may wen be iu serious danger. The
British people are not accustomed
to the idea of political policemen. It
damages the credibility of the police
in the eyes of the public:
Mr Nigel Spearing (Newham.
South. Lab) said the proper channel
of accountability was through
“LC How
the
into
pro*
elected members of the G
far that should extend
operational decisions and
motions was another matter.
Mr Mellor said one of the clearest
issues before Londoners at the
election was the Conservatives'
determination that there should not
be political control of the police by
the GLC The public in his
constituency and elsewhere were
appalled at the p rospect that Red
Ken and his cronies should take
over the police.
There had been concern about
some of the disreputable campaign-
ing against the police that had gone
on in the far left fringes of the
Labour Party. . The sooner the
Labour Party got back to its old
standards about the police the better
off they would be.
The Police Commissioner was
right to draw attention to the few
political extremists who sought, bo
destroy public confidence In the
police and make its work less
effective.
If we arc to defeat London's
crime (he added) the police ‘and
decent citizens must make common
cause against criminals. The
Government will give the Metro-
politan Police Commissioner every
. vital
assistance in his difficult but
task

authorities to report on progress
towards this, M Robert Dunn,
Under Secretary of State for
Education and Science, said in
replying to a debate on the future of
the younger generation opened by
Mr Ronald Leighton (Newham
North East. Lab).
The Government believed that
lower strainers for whom 16-plus
examinations were not designed and
who might leave school with a sense
of failure after studies less ihan well
attuned to their abilities, neverthe-
less had an important rale to play in
industrial and commercial life.
Pilot projects were being under-
taken, __ rn 13 local education
authority areas aimed at providing a
more practical andtffcctrVccurritu-
lum: As one who had failed the 1 J T

the problems of failure. - .
He was concerned about the poor

to other areas/ He did not accept
London bad- such overwhelming
social -problems of such a different
-scale that .H explained supfc poor
results for such .high expenditure.
He refused to believe there were ndt
just as many bright boys and girts in
inner London as there were ™ other
parts of the country and as there
were in the old days. when there
were 40 grammar schools under thie
LCC. •
Some Loodoh schools were
achieving much today, but' all
abilities seemed to be less well
catered for. There was a pool of
talent to be exploited.
In reply to Mr Frank Dobson,
(Holborn and St Psncras, Lab) who
asked whether this meant the
minister thought it would be better
if there were grammar -and
secondary schools, Mr Dmu aid it
could be legitimately argued..
Mr Leighton said that unless society
was able to find work, purpose and a
decenf future for the generation
-aged undef 25. it would becrestroga
time bomb -which would explode
with devastating effect If further
disorder were to break out, the
Government could not ay it had
not been warned.
Mr Charles Kennedy (Ross, Go-
many andSkyc, SDP), the youngest
MP, in a ma id en speech said *har
one of the problems which had

history too many young people hart

Mr Dobson, for the Opposition, said
that in uajyeoatics, the carefree
atmosphere had greatly diminished.
Many young people were working
themselves to death for three years
at university or polytechnic because
they fea red that if they did not get a
good degree, or a degree at all they
would end up bn a rather superior
scrap heap.
. Moldavia -.formerly Bessa-
rabia- remains a fertile land of
neat orchards vp d well tilled
fields; of grapes* fruit, tobacco
and vegetables. There is also a
sprinkling of growing towns
surrounded by fight Industry.
.The region also encapsulates
the economic and social prob-
lems facing President Andro-
pov. He has constantly stressed
the nationalities question in the
Soviet - Union* and -the use of
the Russian language as
unifying factor.
- Moldavia, which has been
tugged back and forth between
R ussia 'and H twnnh since
1812. is a sensitive part of the
union. Soviet . oflfefau . are
reluctant to admjfr that Molda-
vian is close to Romanian.
They insist that Russian is
the proper language of admin-
istration; while Moldavian Is
used “only" in the home and on
the streets.
Wen over 60 per cent of the
population is native Moldavian*
yet most street and slum signs
in Kishinev, the capital, are fa)
Russian, with some concessions
to the vernacular.
Like other southern repub-
lics, Moldavia also tends to
suffer from the kind of
corruption that Mr Andropov is
trying to root out The republic
was favoured by Mr Brezhnev,
who made his early career
there after the war.
Moldavia has not yet caagfit
np with the Andropov era, and
Brezhnev portraits still abound.
It is to some extent protected
by Mr Brezhnev'S protege, Mr
Konstantin Chernenko* who
has strong local ties.
None the less, several
Kishinev officials were last
month given prison sentences
of up to 10 years each for
embezzling funds set aside for
buOding projects.
- Housing and agriculture are
two of Mr Andropov's main
headaches, as a close look at
Moldavia makes clear. Collec-
tive and state farms are well
organized, with competently
managed fruit hums and well
irrigated fields of wheat
sugar .beet (largely defeating
this year's drought). The level
of .'mechanization is-higher rt»»n
elsewhere in Russia.
But a great deal of work on
the land is done by hand, with
traditional tools. Moreover, the
f nut-picking machines devel-
oped by scientists in die much
vaunted “agro-industrial com-
plexes" tend to leave a quarter
of the crop on the ground, and
many tractors stand idle for
lack of spaces. Waste, bad
storage and inadequate trans-
port are the bane of even model
farms.
The towns also suffer from
inadequate boosing, despite the
ambitions construction .pro-
gramme. Much of Kishinev was
destroyed during the Second
World War, and has been re-
built.
There are* nevertheless, still
thousands of sub-standard
nineteenth century d we Quags in
the town centre, a stone's throw
from the new 16-storey Intou-
rist hoteL
The houses lack elementary
sanitation, and sewage water
runs in the streets. At one
tumbledown house up a narrow
lane, an angry resident told ns
she had gone so far as to write
to the Central. Committee in
Moscow- to protest.
Tbe local Kishinev- auth-
orities .had . come to investigate,
and had., promised to dear the

boteuig^ but so far nothing had
happened: ,;, , ■ ; ...

East German credits storm
Critics attack Strauss
at
From Michael Binyon
Bonn
The Bavarian-based Chris-
tian Social Union (CSU)
opened a two-day congress in
Munich yesterday with resent-
ment and vexation still burning
among many party members
who strongly oppose the recent
DM 1,000m (£253m) credit
guarantee to East Germany.
Bitter criticism is expected to
be voiced at the leading role
Herr Franz Josef Strauss, the
party leader, played in the
arrangement, but no fhll-scsle
revolt is expected.
Opponents of the credit,
which Heir Strauss declared on
Monday had been hugely his
idea, accuse him of violating the
party's basic programme by not
insisting on the principle of quid
pro quo.
Last week one paly member,
Herr Franz Handlos, resigned in
a blaze of publicity, accusing
Herr Strauss of being a one-man
democracy, and saying his
turnabout on the credits was the
last straw.
Herr Suauss, who appeared
to relish the astonishment his
unexpected stance caused politi-
cal opponents used to his
previous tough approach to East
Berlin, is likely to counter-at-
tack resolutely and argue that
valuable conce s sions can now
be expected from East Germany
in return.
He has already cited the

a consequence of the credits,
and will outline the Govern-
ment's expectations that the
minim um currency exchange
for visitors to East Germany
will now be lowered, as well as
the age limit for pensioners
travelling to West Germany.
Critics in the party have not
been appeased, and Herr Ekkc-
hard Voigt, an MP and military
specialist, aid he was deeply
disgusted by the whole affair.
He asked whether the East
Germans would not use the
money to finance more self-fir-
ing border installations and
guards with orders to shoot.
Critics have insisted that the
party congress debate the issue
thoroughly, and this is likely to
overshadow other policy que?
tions.
Heir Strauss's coup ha
certainly taken the wind out c
his opponents* satis. The SoCu
Democrats have lamely accuse
him of opportunism, thoug
themselves welcoming the at
dits. The press, normally critki
of Herr Strauss, has conclude

Tax break for businessmen
House back helping
hand for Caribbean
Washington (NYT) - The
House of Representatives, with
the near unanimous support of
the Republican minority, ap-
proved a scaled-down version
of the trade portion of President
Reagan's 1982 Caribbean Basin
intiative.
In an effort to spur tourism in
the Caribbean, the Bill also
gives a new tax break to
American businessmen, allow-
ing them to deduct expenses for
attending meetings and conven-
tions in the 28 countries of the
Caribbean Basin. Deductions
are usually not allowed for
meetings attended outside of
North America.
The Bfll, which is the second
part of the Reagen proposal to
be approved, would allow duty-
free import of a variety of goods
from the region. An initial part
of the package, S350m in' aid,
was approved by Congress last
year. A third part, the Presi-
dent's tax proposals, designed
to stimulate investment in the
area, have not been considered
The vote on the Bill was 289-
129, with 144 Democrats and
145 Republicans voting for it
Those voting for the Bill argued
that the plan is a helping hand,
not a handout, and is needed to
help preserve economic, and
political stability in an area
described as 'our soft underbel-
ly'.
A similar Bill has been
approved in the Senate, and a
House-Senate conference to
resolve differences is scheduled
to start on Tuesday.
Thai same conference is also
expected to approve repeal of
the 10 per cent withholding of
taxes on dividends and interest
that was to start on July l. After
the House and. Senate passed
similar bills to repeal withhold-
ing, the Treasury postponed the
effective date to August I. The
Senate vote for repeal superced-
ed earlier Senate approval of a
Bill that delayed withholding
until 1987.
However, there could be
trouble in the conference over
House opposition to other
proposals, including the Presi-
dent's enteiprise Zone Bill.

. vrday that the United States Miinstersaid. . , ■ However, Mr Par
. ,.\d agreed to begin dosing its
- -ses on Greek territory in
■ : ;'89.
1 -Mr Andreas Papandreou,
. ';ctcd Prime Minister in 1981
~r\th a pledge to get the bases
'. ■rt, said a new Greek-US
..^reement, replacing the exlst-
1 .gs accord, had been reached
. , ‘ yd would come into force at
e start of next year.
*".■ The new agreement would
‘■..pire at the end of 1988 and
, 'e US would have to close its
' ises within 17 months after
at, Mr Papandreou told
•' ; .xurualists.
He said: “For jhe first time,
r-. e equality of our country has
•; '«n recognized ,The- agreement
- an indication that our
- .. runny has regained its
--iiioniu sovereignty to a great
-..'.'tent.’*
■ ,.The Prime Minister said the
•- . ■ 'reernenl, which would replace
• 1. 're accord dating from 1953,
‘..V as an historic step towards
- iiioaal independence.
( The new accord has been
’ -’^der negotiation for the past
'ti - ne months. It covers two US
_’’tt .tees near Athens and two on
.je island of Crete, plus minor
istallanons elsewhere.
Papandreou told, his
'abinet that Greece could
Imounce the five-year agree-
r~^Nient at any time it saw fit. He
TL.tid the accord would link
* llffrotinued operation of the
|$es with the level of US

The bases would be limited
i defence purposes and they
Milould not ' be used against
such a move.
For the first time, .thc Primc
Min is t e r added!, "Washington
tad given a formal undertaking
. not to upset the balance of
power between . -Greece and
Turkey, which are divided over
territorial rights in the Aegean.
He said that in 1984, Greece
would receive $300m (£324. 7m)
in defence assistance compared
with President Reagan’s orig-
inal proposal of 5280m.
The accord also lays down
that Greece will decide under
what law American servicemen
who commit crimes in this
country should be tried. Up to
now, American soldiers have
enjoyed extra-territorial rights
under which they could insist
on being tried by United States
law. .
The agreement, as described
by . . Mr Papandreou, broadly
satisfies the conditions which he
has laid down as essential if the
Americans are to remain for
any length of time.
The pro-Moscow Greek
Communist Party has said that
any agreement which lasts
beyond Mr Papandreou’s term,
ending in 1985. is meaningless
since the Government cannot
bind its successors.
Diplomats believe that
Greece’s continued heavy
dependence on United States
arms supplies made it difficult
for the Socialist Government to
Mr Papandreou was elected
on an anti -Nato platform but
has resisted pressure from the
left wing of his Pan-Hellenic
Socialist Movement (Pasok)
and from the C ommunis t Party'
to close the bases without
discussion.
The bases were installed after
Greece and the United Slates
signed their bilateral defence
agreement in 1953. Since then,
the United States has developed
a sophisticated network of
military installations on the
mainland and in Crete.
The four major bases and
several smaller installations
function within the context of
the Greek-US defence agree-
ment but come under the Nato
umbrella.
As such they are considered
important to the defence re-
quirements both of the United
States and of Nato, and their
supporters say they contribute
to maintaining the East-West
balance of power in the
Mediterranean.
' The US maintains a medium
sized transport, support, logis-
tics and surveillance air base at
Hellerukon .airport, Athens, and
a major link in US, global naval
communications and an elec-
tronic surveillance base at Nea
MaJcri in Attica, north of the
capital.
The two other major bases
are in Crete. •

A leading human rights
organization in Zimbabwe has
expressed distress over an
upsurge in violence in the
western province of Matabele-
land and urged, the Government
to respond with restraint.
The Catholic Commission for
Justice and Peace in Zimbabwe
referred, m a carefully-worded
statement released yesterday, to
incidents “reported in the press
as being caused by dissidents”
in which 19 people have been
killed and 18 wounded since
March. .
It went on to condemn “this
violent campaign against the
Government and people of
Zimbabwe” in which “once
again defenceless civilians are
bearing the brunt”.
The statement was the first
issued by the' commission since
March 27, when it accused the
Zimbabwe Array of being
responsible for a massacre ot
men, women and children
during anti-insurgency oper-
ations in Matabeleland. -

US against
meeting of
scientists
From Mohsin Ali
Washington
The United States has told
the Soviet Union that it is ready
hold govcmmcnt-to-govcrncmi
talks on developments on anti-
baliistic missile defence systems
but that ft dose not favour a
meeting of scientists from the
two countries.
President Andropov sug-
gested about three months ago
that scientists should gel togeth-
er to discuss the consequences
of deploying latg scale anti-
missle defences in space.
The State Department said:
[ “The Soviets proposed a meet-
ing of scientists to discuss
defence against ballistic miss-
iles. We believe a dialogue
about the defensive tech-
nologies . both countries have
under development could be
mutually beneficiaL However,
for these discusions to be useful
they should be in a govemment-
to-goverament forum.”
The Reagan' Admin stration is
now awaiting a reply to its
co un ter-p roposaL
The possible future deploy-
ment of anti-missJe stsiems in
space was raised by President
Reagan in an important speech
last March which was dubbed in
the press here as the “Star
AVars” speech.
The proposed government
talks would not affect the
President’s derision to launch a
US effort to develop a defence
against attacking nuclear miss-
iles- “The Administration is
firmly committed to investigat-
ing the long-term prospects for
enhancing stability by reducing
reliance on ballistic missiles
through development of defens-
ive systems”, the Stale Depart-
ment said.
In 1972, the US and the
Soviet signed a treaty limiting
each country to a single,
relatively small ABM system.
The Soviet Union has such a
system around Moscow, but the
US decided not to go ahead
with its own system.
SOFIA: (Reuter) - Herr
Hans-Dieiricb Genschcr, the
West German Foreign Minister,
said he had told Bulgaria, one of
Moscow's closest allies, that foe
Soviet stance at the Geneva
talks on medium-range nuclear
missiles was blocking progress.
At a news conference here he
said arms control bad occupied
a large pan of two days of talks
with Bulgarian leaders, who
included President Zhivkov,
who is also leader of the
Communist Party.
Both sides had expressed
widely different views on
limiting medium-range missiles
in Europe, an indication that
Bulgaria had fully identified
itself with the Soviet line.

Scientists in
search of
Europe’s
earliest man
From Richard Wigg
Madrid
Leaving their prime piece of
evidence, a small fragment of
human skull, in the strongroom
of a local savings bank, a group
of Catalan scientists went this
week to southern Spain to
search for more proofs of their
claim to have found the
remains of a man who lived
more than one million years
ago.
“If we are right this is the
earliest man known to have
lived in Europe,” Dr Josep
Gibert. leader of the team, told
The Times. Until now the
earliest human remnant in
Europe, dating from 700.000
years ago. was found at Isernia.
Italy. But this was only a tooth,
he said.
The scientists are going to
. work for six weeks in a desert-
like area under broiling Artdalu-
■ sian sun, living in tents, at
1 . Guadix-Baza near Granada.
They hope to learn more about
- the Man of Orce. whose
fossilized skull fragment - only
about as much as comes within
, the palm of your hand if you
1 hold -it over the back of your
—..head t- they unearthed buried
deep in sediment last Decem-
ber.
“The proofs we have so far
- are from indirect dating, from
- the evolution of micro-fauna,
particularly a primitive and tiny
rat, and while from this we are
sure the fragment dates from
- between 900.000 to 1 .600,000
- - years ago, we want to reduce
this large margin. We now think
• most probably it dates from
‘ 1 300.000 years ago,” Dr Gibert
explained.
The team will also search for
more human remains and for
any signs of industry by
primitive man, for instance
chipped stones which the Man
of Orce might have used as
rudimentary knives.
The size of the fragment, only
just over three inches in
diameter, makes it difficult. Dr
Gibert explained, to classify
precisely whether the Man of
Orce was a Homo habilis. who
lived between 2.5 million and
1.3 million years ago, or the
Homo erect us. living between
13 million and 100.000 years
ago.- -
"The remarkable thing is we
have some evidence that it is
Homo habilis. though we must
still be very careful.” he said.
The team has only just begun
the task of cleaning the incrus-
tations on the inside of the
cranium, which they will con-
tinue after returning to Saba-
delL near Barcelona, in the
autumn.
Working with a bodkin,
because of the fragility of the
fragment, which has three deep
fissures on its surface, they want
to reveal the c ereb r al im-
pressions. important for show-
ing how the human brain
developed. Fust signs are that
the Man of Oree’s brain appears
very advanced in evolutionary
terms. This would be highly
significant if the Man of Orce is
so old.
Dr Gibert said it was through
a chance visit by Dr Peter
Andrews, of the British Mu-
seum's natural history depart-
ment. and a specialist, in
primates, that they realized the
wider significance of the dis-
covery.
There are now plans for
dating the skull fragment by
palaetimagnetism, using equip-
ment from a geological labora-
tory at Oxford University.
Human remains have been
found in Africa dating from two
to four million years ago.
Evidence that the first man to
live in Europe, probably after
he Straits of Gibraltar,
■crossing the
settled in Andutaria, has not
been - lost on -the ‘region's
autonomous Government
"They .have persuaded the
Catalan scientists that for the
month, of August when tourists
flock' from all over Europe, the
- Man. of Orce’s now famous
skull fragment will go. on show
in a castle near the original
excavation site.
Sudan kidnappers
‘not strong group’
From Charles Harrises , Nairobi
The five
rescued by
Western hostages
the Sudan Army
after being held in a remote area
by rebels say their captives do
not seem to represent a
significant opposition organiza-
tion.
The five, led by Mr John
Haspels, an American mission-
ary, addressed a press confer-
ence here yesterday after
returning from Sudan. They
were freed a week ago when
Sudanese forces using helicop-
ters routed their captors, killing
18 of them.
Mr Haspels said they were
captured by a group of about IS
souierhn Sudanese, who were
later joined by a few more. They
claimed to belong to the
previously unknown Southern
Sudanese Liberation Front.
Lesotho sets two
Britons free
Maseru (AFP) - Two Britons
suspected of spying for a
European power, who were held
for two weeks in Lesotho, have
been handed over to the British
High Commission. Lesotho
Radio reported.
The radio said Mr Desmond
Gerard McConigle and Mr
Patrick Joseph Martin, who
had been declared "‘undesir-
able” by the Government, would
heave by the first flight out of
the kingdom, which is entirely
ssurouiided by South African
territory.
Mr Haspels said at least three communications with Juba, the
of the group had been trained in southern Sudan caprtaL
Ethiopia, apparently with
finance from Libya. The Sudan
Government has alleged that
Libya is supporting dissident
groups of southern Sudanese,
who have been, using bases in
Ethiopia to launch subversive
operations.
Mr- Haspels said he recog-
nized some of their captors as
local students and traders in the
Boma area, a remote part of the
southern Sudan near the Ethio-
pian border.
The gang had threatened to
kill the hostages if they were not
given a substantial sum of
money, ISO uniforms and
publicity on the BBC and the
Voice of America for their
cause.
The rescue operation was
organized in secret after one of
the pilots in the group was
allowed to fry Mr Haspels’s
family and Mr Conrad Aveling,
a British biologist who was
sick, out to Nairobi. The pilot
also took back instructions for
the group to wait for a secret

The illustrious class of ’58
At /the Theatre 7 des' Champs-

something remarkable. Ballet,

nated by the young, and the
programme being given thereby
Stars of the Bolshoi includes, as
its middle section,, three con-
trasted duets by some- of foe
rising -young- dancers from
Moscow, pretty good they are,
too, yet all of them eclipsed by
thegolden oldies.
The instigator, leader, chor-
eographer and star of foe group
is Vladimir Vasiliev, who
graduated from- the Bolshoi
School in foe same year (1958)
that Nureyev and the late Yuri
Soloviev did from foe Kirov.
(Has any country, before or
since, given birth at once to
three men of that quafity?) His
partner is Ekaterina Maximova,
also ftwn that illustrious
oT58.
They do not bog foe lime-
light, ceding their one-time
showpiece, foe Don Quixote pas

Nina Semizorova (a great
favourite in Paris) and Viktor
Barykin, foe latter a- forceful
young man who, with his
jutting: jaw and thoughtful eyes,
even looks a little HkeVasiliev.
Bui, admirably as foe young
cast dance, I had a mental
image of their predecessors:
j ump in g higher, turning fester,
holding balances with more
delicious cheek, playing- more
joyfully with style, technique
and mu sical phrasing. An unfair
comp ari son, but unavoidable.
Luckily, there is no need to
lament lost glories, because
Maximova and Vasiliev are
prominently featured in the
ballets that begin and end file
show. They are surrounded by a
strong- team, among whom the
most impressive is Valeri
Anisimov. His ‘appearance and
style in extracts from GiseOe
bring to mind. Ulanova’s part-
ner in that ballet at Govern
Garden in ■ 1956, Nicolai
Fadeyechev: the same im-
mensely gentle strength and old
fashioned romantic courtesy.
As is happens, Fadeyecbev’s
son Alexei is also with the
group, and another second-
generation dancer; Andris Lie-
pa, son of Maris.. Among the
women, young Irina Piatidna
has a capricious, effervescent
charm. AB these, with foe loug-
legged Alla Mikhalchcnko and
another veteran, Nina Timo-
feyeva, are featured, in Vasi-
Maximova and Vasiliev in “Homage to Ulanova”
hev’s Iastest ballet. Fragments
qf Biography, winch had its
premi&re in Paris.
. This shows the influence of
Vasilev's worldwide travels,
both in his Bolshoi roles and as
guest with other companies.
The tango music - and assort-
ment by various composers -
attracted him during a South
American tour; his own role
shows traces of his work with
B^art, - and Maximova has foe
sort of role that Roland Petit
might make for Jeanmaire.
Vasiliev succeeds, just about,
in lying those disparate
elements into a whole - for his
portrait of a man, in the twilight
of -his life, looking back at his
past self 'at. different stages of
being - defined by his relation-

covered, enjoyed, lost "dr be-
trayed.. The other couples
flfristrate thoseapsects,* while
Maximova is Vasiliev’s consol-
er and torn enter, foe spirit of
womanhood and angel of death.
The tango does not come
as naturally to Vasiliev. as it
does to the Argentine
choreographer Oscar Araiz,
whose company from foe
Grand Theatre, Geneva, over-
lapped at foe Th&itre de la Vine
with the Boshoi’s Paris opening.
Araiz’s two-act ballet Tango
shows every imaginable vari-
ation on that dance to illustrate
foe history and society of his
homeland. Vasfliev’s treatment,
though ingenious and stylish, is
inevitably more superfioaL
But, realizing the danger of
that, he has made a virtue of it,
adopting a fight, ironic treat-
ment that presents an outsider's
view of the dance, and at. foe
same time enables him to avoid
banality in the development of
what could otherwise be 'too
conventional a theme. It also
allows a happy ending the
corpse comes back to life for
finale in which all the characters
take part, their contradictions
reconciled.
This ballet reveals a new side
of Vasiliev as dancer and
choreographer, although it
could be argued that what he is
doing is a twentieth-century
equivalent of the way Petipa
took Spanish dancing as foe
basis of parts of Don Quixote.
adapting and modifying as he
went to suit- his balletic needs.
Similarly, Vasiliev bends the
tango form into solos or duels
that serve his purposes.
His other creation, beginning
foe programme, looks back to
foe strict classical tradition as
taught in the schoolroom. In
feet, following such precedents
as Haraid Lander’s Etudes and
Asaf Mcsserer’s School of Ballet.
it is set in a ballet studio where
the performers begin with foeir
daily exercises at the b a rre
before venturing into the centre
for solos and duets.
Where the new weak differs
from those earlier examples of
foe genre is that its small cast of
10 dancers compels him to put
the emphasis for more on the
individual, so that every mem-
ber of the group has the chance
of showing his or her paces.
Also. Vasiliev casts himself as a
ballet master is charge of foe
others, and includes an episode
ofa child (Nadia Timofeyeva, a
first-year student at the Bolshoi
School) wandering into foe
studio and, after a tiny solo,
snuggling down in a chair to
watch foe mature dancers with
absorbed and respectful awe.
Vasiliev shows just enough of
his old virtuosity to prove he
can still do it, but has set
few jumping steps for him:
concentrating instead on a
smooth legato style and supple-
ly deployed line. Over foe years,
his dancing has become more
classical, a development owed
to coaching from the incompar-
able Galma Ulanova. She is in
Paris with the group as ballet
mistress, so the high all-round
level as well as the personal
brilliance must be credited to
her influence. In reegnition of
that, Vasiliev calls foe ballet
Homage to Ulanova.

Stop the bores
“Conversation,” said Ambrose
Bierce, “is a fair for foe display
of the minor mental commodi-
ties. each exhibitor being too
intent upon the arrangement of
his own wares to observe those
of his neighbour.” He might
have been describing that
infuriating conversation-piece,
immodestly titled Stop the
Week (Radio 4. Saturdays,
produced by Michael Ember),
in which Robert Robinson and
his chums contrive to prove
that radio is most effective
-when it talks to itself rather
than foe listener. In order to
achieve this, guests are permit-
ted - even encouraged - to be as
trivial, arrogant and conde-
scending as possible, providing
they remember to interrupt
each other the moment they get
bored with not talking.
One recent exchange went
something like this - Milton

sitting at a nearby table.
In recent weeks. I have
overheard a variety of irksome
conversations from my nearby
table. There was some talk
about chewing gum (Robinson:
“The person who chews gum in
public is telling me rather more
about himself than anybody
outside his private family would
want to know”); about radio
experts (Leslie: “I imagine all
participants in Gardener’s Ques-
tion Time are sitting there with
old hats full of bus of peat,
beetles in their pockets and
their trousers tied round with
string. I don’t believe they
belong to foe real world at alL”X
and about revenge (Robinson:
When someone wrongs you,
what they are really doing is
making off with your pith").
I’m not sure whether Mr
Robinson & Co belong to the
real world, and foe last thing I
want to do is make off with
anyone’s pith, as it were, but I
am reminded of that member of
the Algonquin Round Table (I
think it was Harold Ross,
though it was probably Robert
Benchley) who complained that
“Everyone was waiting his
chance to say foe bright remark
so that it would be in Franklin
Pi ere Adam’s New Yorker
column the next day." The
microphone, unfortunately, is
somewhat less selective.
Other conversations this
week have included an im-
passioned di scussi o n/phone-in
about capital punishment on
Tuesday Call (Radio 4, Pro-
duced by foe Today Unit),
given only fleeting light-relief
when Brian Redhead referred to
Ian Paisley “hanging on the
telephone”, and the parliamen-
tary debate itself which was
broadcast live on Wednesday.
For me, however, the best
chat of the week was supplied
by Johnny Morris in foe first
programme of a new 10-part
series Around the World in 25
Years (Radio 4. Mondays and
Tuesdays, Produced by Brian
Patten), which recaptures high-
lights from Mr Morris's many
radio jaunts.
The series began in Mexico
with the Zopelloti vultures
whirling overhead, and John-
ny's long-suffering travelling
companion. Tubby Foster, acci-
dently stuck in a drain - “If
only I had my Spanish phrase
book - it's sure to be there with
all the other tomfool phrases.
‘My friend has become stuck in
the drain, pray help me.'*
Always using foe immediacy
of the present tense. Mr Morris
creates a one-man theatre in tire
listener’s mind - painting the
scenery, improving the props
and peopling his intimate little
dramas with a cast of charming,
eccentric, memorable charac-
ters. Characters like the man
selling jcwcll-cncrustcd wood
beetles (with, of course, a year's
supply of their favourite wood
diet).
I was a child when I first
heard one of Johnny’s Jaunts,
and he held me spellbound with
his sense of wide-eyed wonder
and his rich repetoire of voices.
Mr Morris is still delighting
young audiences today on
television and, recently, on
Radio 4's Listening Corner
(Monday to Friday. Produced
by Susan Denny). This robust
little programme is successor to
the axed Listen with Mother. A
few months ago it won a Sony
Radio' Award, and it is already
attracting well-known storytel-
lers like Mr Morris. Nanette
Newman and, later this year.
Irene HandL If the BBC would
only give it a little publicity,
they would probably find quite
a lot of listeners congregating in
Listening Corner.

hard-working woman who div-

The step-father was great and
Miss Windsor couldn’t speak
too highly of. him. But mother
was a problem: critical, hard-to-

Early in the programme
Barbara didn't think she was

to have been ‘ brave and
uncomplaining. There were
some tears here. After a few had
been shed, Ms Mooney offered
a cut, which was refUsed.
It was all a bit inconclusive,
more in the anticipation than
the reafity. Mother probably

accepting the transition from

THE PRESIDENT said foal the
appeal arose from the arrest of foe
phntzfC Mii Mariam Mabammed-
Holgatc by Detective Constable
Offin of foe Hampshire police in
May 1980 following the loss of
jewdiy-.ftom .premises -where she
■wasataipr.
- The . jewelry ' disappeared . on
Decembers, 1979 And -subsequently
two of foe missing rings appeared in
a local JcweHra^i shop window. The
plantifFft des cr i p t i on was simiiwr to
that given by the jeweller of the
person who had sold- the rings to
him -
The' court had found that foe
constable had reasonable cause to
arrest 'without warrant the plaintiff
as lie had reasonable cause - to
suspect her to be guilty of the
offence . and the .conditions . of
section 2 (4) of the Criminal Law
Act 1 967 were satisfied.
- The question was whether it was
reasonable to exercise- the power.
Judge Intitip -had said: “I find list
the power of . arrest was only
exercised for the purpose of potting
someone under greater, pressure to
confess than ' jf interviewed under
caution without fating arrested and
is an unreasonable. exercise of foe
power given by the statute and foe
action succeeds".
■ Lord Devlin fakd raid in Hussein
V Ram dlS70] AC 942, 948): “To
give power to arrest -on reasonable
suspicion does sot mean that it is
always or even , ordinarily to be
exercised. It means that there is an
exccntive discictian. In the. exercise
of it many : fictors have to be
considered beside foe' strength of the
case. The possibility, of escape, foe
prevention of fixrther crane and the
obstruction of police isquries are
examples- of those - factors with
which all judges who haw had to
grant or refuse bail arc familiar”.
In his Lordship's judgment those
factors were not exhaustive.
.' The court had be e n r eferred to
Command Pfcper 8092 of foe Royal
Co mmis sion on Criminal Procedure
in England aim Wales. Paragraph
3.66 stated: “The - period of
detention upon arrest may be used
.for certain purposes, and the power
of arrest is also .related to these.
Indeed foe purposes for -which foe
existing powers of arrest are used m
practice can be put in the following
terms.
“It may be used to prevent the
suspect destroying evidence or
interfering with witnesses or
warning accomplices who have not
yet been arrested. Where there is
good reasou io suspect a repetition
of- the -offence; especially but not
exclusively offences of violence, it
may be used to stop such an
occurrence.:
■ “Finally, the criterion of having
reasonable grounds for suspicion
evidence, for example, may be
sufficient grounds for reasonable
suspicion, bat it is not sufficient for
a peraon to be charged, since it will
not be -admissible as evidence U
trial •
“Accordingly, foe -period of
detention may be used to dispel or
confirm that reasonable suspicion
by questioning foe suspect or
seeking further material evidence
with his assistance. This has not
always been foe law or practice but
now seems to be wefi established as
one of foe primary purposes of
detention npananest."
That reflected the proper basis for
the exercise of the power of arrest. -
The plaintiff was not questioned
improperly and there was ' no
improper pressure following foe
arrest- The police officer thought
that without a confession be would
not be able to charge foe plaintiff
and that by depriving foe plaintiff of
her liberty there was a likelihood
that foe suspect would confess.
The purpose for effecting foe
power of arrest was proper. There
were other things the constable
might have done but that did not
make his arrest unreasonable. The
appeal had to be allowed.
MR JUSTICE LATEY, concur-
ring, said that foe judge below had
nor bad his attention drawn to the
Royal Commission report.
The exercise of a discretionary
power of arrest deprived an arrested
person of liberty and resulted in
indignity and distress. Parliament
was wdl aware of that when it
enacted the statute.
The other side of the coin was
that it provided foe police with an
important, indee d necessary re-
source or means or weapon.
The court had to balance the two
public interests. The interest that
the subject should not be deprived
of his liberty and the interest that
law and order should be upheld so
that the persons and property of
law-abiding citizens were protected.
The exetase of the power could
be to the benefit of the suspect and
bring an immediate ad to the
investigation and the dood han g in g
over the suspect. That was what
happened inihe present case.

The Court of Appeal io a

appeal by foe plaintiffs. Jet Travel

3, 1982. of Mr Justice Smart-Smith
( The Timm, December 7, 19S2) on
foe _ hearing of foe plaintiffs’
application under Order 14 of foe
Rules or foe Supreme Court in
chambers, foe judgment beiup given
in open court whereby it was
ordered foat foe defendants should
have leave to defend.
Mr Justice Stuan-Smith allowed
an appeal by the defendants, Slade
Travel Agency, from an order of
Master Bickford-Smith that judg-
ment be entered for the plaintiffs
against foe defendants for £4,280
and damages and interest to be
assessed.
Mr Denis Henry, QC and Mr
Mark Barnes for foe plaintiffs: Mr
Michael Tugcndhai for foe defend-
ants.
LORD JUSTICE MAY, giving
the judgment of the court, said that
the plaintiffs were a subsidiary ofa
German company. Jet Reisen
GmbH, who did not bold an ATOL
and who in the summer Of 1981
entered into a number of whole
plane charters with Dan Air
Services Ud to make flights between
Gatwidc and cities in Germany.
Jet Reisen sold some of foefr
surplus seats to foe pteintif& who in
turn sold them to foe defendants
unto an agreement foe terms of
wtocb provided foat foe defendants
should pay for the seats 14 days in
advance but. in breach of that
agreement they failed to pay for
seats sold io them between
November 30 and December II.
1981. The defendants held an
ATOL and sold the tickets to the
public.
The defence was that the contract
on which the plaintiffs sued was
illegal and unenforceable because
they were in breach of regulation
2(1 ) of foe 1972 Regulations in that
they did not hold an ATOL
The sole question which arose on
this appeal was whether foe
plaintiffs did need an ATOL io
enable them lawfully to enter into
and perform their 1981 contract
with foe defendants. The answer to
that depended on the view one took
of the proper construction of
paragraph 2(IXa) of the 1972
Regulations.
His Lordship agreed with the
defendants’ counsel that the words
of the regulation were dear, that
they gave rise to no ambiguity, that
they applied to the plaintiffs 1
obligations under their contract
with the defendants and that there
was no warrant for cutting down the
plain meaning of foe words used in
the regulation.
Further, as foe judge pointed out,
although the requirement ofa bond
was no doubt an important, and
perhaps the most important protec-
tion afforded to the travelling public
by virtue of the regulations, it was
not foe only one.
The Civil Aviation Authority bad
always io be satisfied that an
applicant was a fit and proper
person to hold an ATOL and of
suffideni financial stability. The
authority bad to be so satisfied at
least annually because the Hw-ry^
had to be renewed cadi year.
For those reasons his Lordship
dismissed the appeaL With nothing
more foat would have foe result foat
foe judge's order stood and the
defendants had unconditional leave
to defend foe plaintiffs’
However the facts of foe- case were
agreed and upon them and the view
that the court took of the

hunting and set out on October 22,
1894, by the shores of Lake Nyasa in
search of elephants.
“He was a surgeon on the gunboat
HMS Pioneer and had taken a few
days off to go hunting. Two lions
confronted him in a dealing in the
bush and his bearers, not expecting
lions, s hinn ed up the nearest tree.**
McKay stood his ground and
wounded one of the lions. Foolishly
he followed it into the bush, where it
suddenly sprang, knocked the gun
from his hand and started to make a
meal of him. As it took a break, one
of the bearers scrambled down from
the tree and steadied the gun in
McKay's almost lifeless hands. As
the Uon again approa c hed, McKay
fired. Within minutes, both lion and
victim were dead.
McKay was buried where he felL

that three weeks ago the National
Coal Board proposed immediate
closure of the County Durham
colliery on safety grounds. Arthur
Scaxgtil was outraged, threatened the

to reject the closure.
The men, offered mining jobs
elsewhere, held a secret ballot and
agreed overwhelmingly with the
Coal Board. Few people north of
Sheffield blamed them. Durham

But the centenary gala serves only
to underline that the event has

Nor will they take assurance from
Michael Foot’s assertion in the
programme that the gala “will
continue to inspire the whole
Labour movement for many years to
come". He has been ovcr-optinristic
before.
The gala, known as “the big
meeting” and in these parts pro-
nounced to rhyme with "trailer”,
began in 1871. It missed nine war
years and also 1921, 1922 and 1926,
when strikes had so depleted NUM
funds there was nothing left for the
organization. In between, it became
Britain’s biggest and most boisterous
trade union gathering.
The day traditionally began early,
started jolly and became merrier.
The dubs opened at six in the
morning and when prised from
them, the lads would form up
behind band and banner and head
for the village station. In 1875 the
railway company refused to run
specials, claiming the system was
too congested on Saturdays. Scent-
ing a bosses’ manoeuvre, the miners
the turnout has been as low as
50,000 - have never seen a pithead,
let alone descended in foe cage. For
many, traditionalists the final straw
came in 1973, when the Durham
Miners’ Association decided to
allow juvenile jazzbands - little girls
with mfly skirts and kazoos - to take
part in foe parade. The association
argued this would make it more of a
family gala; the old timers thought it
was becoming like Blackpool with-
out the pier.
Billy Furness, a 76-year-old
former Sea ham miner, says: “I
stopped going 'Mien all the teenagers
came into it with their ‘kiss-me-
quick’ hats and darting about. With
us it was just daft fun. Now its r eal
mischief and a lot of people aren't
connected with the industry.”
Yet the NUM flatly refuses to
accept foe frequent suggestion that
the big meeting should become a
festival day for all the county's
unions. Or to give it a decent burial.
Diversification would change foe
whole character of foe occasion, says
Tom Callan, the Durham secretary
of foe union. But he still talks of
“foe big meeting when it was big".
Bill Moyes, author of a now out-
of-print book on the Durham
banners, rejects foe argument that
foe gala should continue as long as a

South Africa for their particular
points of view:)'
That there have been marked
change in foe organization of South.
African sport over foe past IS years,
and that these changes have been
made in response to foe inter-
national boycott, is incontrovertible.
Time was when Dr Hendrik
Verwoend, regarded by many as foe
architect of apartheid, refused to
allow “people of Maori Mood” to
tour South Africa as pan of a New
Zealand rugby tour, which he
insisted must he All Black in name
only. It was his successor as prime
minister, Mr John Vorster, who
provoked the boycott in. 1968 when
he would not accept an English
cricket team including the South
African-born BasQ D’Oliveira, a
mixed-blood Cape coloured
Mr Vorster’s statement is worth
recalling; “I want to make it quite
clear that from South Africa's point
of view no mixed sport between
whites and non-whites will be
practised locally, irrespective of foe
standards of proficiency of the
participant ... our policy has
nothing to do with proficiency or
lack of proficiency." There could
hardly be a clearer expression of foe
colour bar principle.
Today, on foe face of it, foe
position is totally reversed. It is the
outside world which refuses to come
and play ball in South Africa, and it
is the South Africans who are
prepared to pay huge sums of money
to lure foreign teams of any shade or
colour to .their shores. Internally,
there is now no formal barrier in any
major sprat to foe selection of
national teams purely on foe basis of
merit or, to use Mr Vorster’s term,
proficiency. If, therefore, you take-
foe' view that foe original, and
present, purpose of the boycott was
precisely to bring about this
improved state of affairs, then it can
be argued that its objective has been
achieved and that it should be lifted.
But that is not foe only possible
view of the justification for the
boycott
The case for foe boycott has been
well put by Dr Abubaker Asvat, a
well-known figure In South African
Indian cricket: “What is needed is
not only the complete eradication of
those laws which impede cricket and
other sports, but also the complete
abolition of the whole host of other
But what do South Africans
foemsehres think? There is no
question .that an overwhelming
majority of whites, who account for
about 15 per cent of the total
population, want the boycott lifted.
This is true even of staunchly anti-
apaneid liberals. They argue that the
boycott has served its end and is
now actually an obstacle to the
forther erosion of apartheid in sport
by maintaining South Africa's
isolation. Only the most extreme
right-wingers, totally opposed to any
racially-mixed sport, are happy
about the boycott. Gauging the
opinion of blacks, Indians and'
coloureds is, as always, much mote
difficult The only survey was
carried out in late 1980 and early
1981 by the Human Sciences
Research Council (HSRC), a reason-
ably independent academic body,
but one sail a little too close to the
government to be accepted without
question. All the same, its findings
were interesting.
The HSRC interviewed 6,715
people in towns throughout South
Africa, of whom 1,272 were Mack,
1,507 Indian, L536 coloured and
2,400 white. According to foe
results, only 35 per cent of blacks
supported the boycott, against 42.5
per cent of coloureds and 53 per cent
of Indians, who emerged as by far
the most militant on foe issue. More
than 94 per cent of whites were
against foe boycott
One suggested explanation for the
relatively low level of militancy
among blacks was their passion for
soccer. But this theory took a bit of a
knock last year when a tour by a
team of highly paid foreign stars was •
stopped prematurely because several
top South African dubs, which are
racially integrated but mainly black,
refused to play against them.
There is still much controversy as
to whether their refusal was entirely
voluntary and about the degree of
intimidation by blade activist
groups, but the tour organizers were
dearly taken by surprise. The
Sowetan, a daily newspaper for
blacks, denounced the tour editori- ‘
ally, but an opinion poll it ran
among a small sample of its readers
showed two out of three in favour of
foe tour. Black opinion is evidently
much more complex than propagan-
dists outside the country are
prepared to admit.

Cogan and.Swid, at anil’s length; Taubman, welcomed
Alfred Taubman, one of America's
10 richest men - every cent self-
made - has been giving evidence
this week to foe Monopolies and
Mergers Commission in London.
The six-man panel, chaired by Sir
Alan Neale, a retired dvil servant, is
seeking to determine whether he is a
suitable purchaser for So the by Parke
Berne l, the world's largest art
auctioneering group.
The future of Sotheby's now
hangs on the decision for or against
Mr Taubman which the commission
must take before November 2 - with
the rider that it could be overturned
by Mr Cedi Parkinson, foe Trade
Secretary.
It is generally assumed in the art
marker and the City that foe battle is
over bar the shouting. Sotheby’s
board enjoys enormous influence
within the "establishment”, foe
argument runs; since the board
enthusiastically t endorses a Taub-
man takeover, it will go through.
This view is probably correct. All
foe same, the Commission has to
deride whether it would be in the
public interest for control to go to
Mr Taubman. It is more than
possible to argue that a Taubman
Swid, told Sotheby’s they had
bought 14.2 per cent of the shares
and would like a. seat on the board
and a hand in reshaping foe
management. Sotheby’s top brass
were astounded at their presumption
and sharply turned them away.
In May, undeterred, Cogan and
Swid announced a takeover bid for
foe entire company at £5.20 a shar p,
a price thought to overvalue
Sotheby’s on its recent record. The
board did all it could to fight them
off, it lobbied vigorously for a
reference to foe Monopolies Com-,
mission, looked round for a rival
bidder and issued a defence
document criticizing Cogan *r >«j
SwicPs business methods - an issue
largely irrelevant to shareholders.
On the day that Lord Cockfield,
the previous Trade Secretary,
referred foe Cogan and Swid bid to
the Monopolies Commission, the
board announced that Mr Taubman
had agreed to consider bidding He
subsequently applied to be vetted by
foe Commission at foe same time as

negotiating to buy their shares. On

American millionaire - or indeed by
a partnership of two or three - the
focus of its activities is certain to slip

This is likely anyway since New

keeping Sotheby's headquarters in

In referring foe Cogan and Swid

Cockfield spelt out the areas in
which he felt the public interest
might be affected. They were: “The
importance of London as foe centre
of the international art market and
foe position of Sotheby's in relation
to that market.” These consider-
ations are equally relevant to Mr
Taubman;

. -J The third reason is that the-
■■ -idea of automatic increments for
■MPs rests only on the arguable
'■-motion that their work can be
- compared to some other level of
official activity in the civil
service. The review body’s broad
criteria for an MFs salary are
that it should . provide an ad-
equate return for a Member with
no other source of income., not
be so large that it invites
accusations of privilege or con-
tributes a paramount financial
attraction to the world of
politics, but recognizes that
public life has some other
elements of satisfaction to it. The
review body’s guess is as good as
anybody's - probably better -
but it is a nebulous consideration
at the best of times, and
guesswork is not an entirely
satisfactory basis for the self-
determination of pay.
In 1982 the Government and
the House accepted a recommen-
dation from the Select Com-
mittee on Members’ Salaries that
Members* pay should be re-
viewed in the fourth year of each
Parliament, and that when .
shortened Parliaments precluded
that, a new review should take
place not later than four years
after the previous rates of pay
had been introduced. It was the
Select Committee's intention to
see that some, automatic! ty was
introduced to protect a new
Parliament from - being faced
with the need to determine MPs’
pay at an early stage in its life.
However, the June election
intervened and made that im-
possible. The new Parliament
cannot be bound by what mi gh t
have occurred if its predecessor
had survived the s umm er.
Conservative backbenchers
cannot divorce the question of
their pay from the general
approach to public sector pay
which is such a central part of
this government's economic
strategy. They seem to be
arguing that the calculations of
the . review body, and the
assumptions of a previous Par-
liament about its Members’ pay,
should take precedence oyer
calculations by foe Government
about its unfolding policy in the
most central and urgent area of
public spending and public
borrowing. That is the area
where the Government can
expect early and continuous
challenges to its authority.
It would be very damaging to
the Government's authority to
lose this minor contest as a result
of a backbench revolt. It might
entitle the Cabinet to claim. that
it had won the argument It
might also be argued thai the
total sum of money was tiny. But
it would certainly encourage
other pressure groups, in' the
public sector with -larger claims
to see if w they could- inflict a‘
similar defeat, and in their own
way further plunder the public
purse.
It appears that Conservative
backbenchers - or most of them
- might now be able to unite
round a compromise solution
involving a little more cash on
the table today, and a promise
that their cherished compara-
bility with an intermediate grade
of civil servants, would be
achieved by the end of foe
Parliament. That would be
sensible, but it is sad to see

archaeological heritage that is as
serious as that of the outlawed
tombaroli in Italy or the huaquenxs
of central America.
Successive British governments
have declared themselves unable or
unwilling to contemplate the intro-
duction of legislation, comparable
with that in most countries of the
world to curb what is tantamount to
looting of the heritage, but die time
has surely come for such action to be
taken. Article 3 of the European
Convention on the Protection of the
Archaeological Heritage, which has
been ratified by the British Govern-
ment. calls upon signatories to
“prohibit and restrain illicit exca-
vations”: what is treasure hunting
but illicit excavation?
The Hambledon find raises two
issues that are especially disquieting.
First, the better preserved of the two
harness mounts sold on Monday
was bought by a Continental dealer,
who will require an export licence to
take his purchase out of the country.
This would seem to be a case to be
referred to the Reviewing Com-
mittee on the Export of Works of
Art. in view of the national
importance of the object concerned
criteria must surely mean that an
opportunity will be given to a public
collection in the UK to purchase the
piece.
If the British Museum does not
wish to acquire it, it would seem
unlikely that the Buddoghazusturc
County Museum (the natural reposi-
tory for this object) could raise the
money needed without considerable
outside financial assistance. There it
every likelihood therefore, that this
important relic of British prehistory
wiu go abroad, thereby setting a
dangerous precedent.
The second disturbing feature is
the refusal of the treasure hunters to
disclose the exact location of the
find spot, since they' are proposing to
“develop” the site further - in other
words, to continue the erode,
unscientific excavation of what is
manifestly a site of great archaeolo-
gical importance. They are no doubt
prompted in this by the twin fears of
possible scheduling of the site as an
ancient monument and of “poach-
ing” by other treasure hunters. As a
result, archaeological scholarship is
impeded, unique evidence is de-
stroyed through ignorance, and yet
more of the British heritage is
convened into personal gain.
It is time. Sir, that the UK
Government recognized its re-
sponsibilities towards this heritage,
which belongs not to individuals but
to the British people as a whole, and
brought its protective legislation up
to the standard of the rest of the
world.

Burton’s tomb
From Miss Mary G. Grim wade
Sir, On July 6 your correspondent,
Mrs Rosalind Whitworth, drew
attention to the state of Sir Richard
Burton’s tomb in the graveyard of St
Mary Magdelea's church, Mortlake.
In 1975 this tomb was restored at
considerable expense. An organiza-
tion named the Sir Richard Burton
Campaign was formed under the
chairmanship of a local resident
with Mr David Attenborough as a
patron; £2,000 was raised with the
help of a gram of £600 from the
Department of the Environment
and £175 from the Richmond upon
Thames Council. At that time h was
hoped to raise a further sum .of
money to renovate the interior and a
preservation order was put on the
tomb.
As a local historian 1 frequently
conduct parties to look at this
unusual memorial and am well
aware of the conditions surrounding
it. It most however, by borne in
mind that the graveyard is one used
solely for the burials of Roman
Catholics and as such is their church
property. I very much doubr
whether they have the manpower or
finances to maintain ft. It is still in
use and consequently would have no
cl aim to be looked after by the local
council
It ’ might be helpful if Mrs
Whitworth 'discussed the matter

priest.

notion of the sanctity of contract
and the principle of pacta sunt
servanda, but it does perhaps serve
to put the Islamic attitude to divorce
in its proper context as a consistent
expression of this general
philosophy of contract.
Although attention in your
columns has centred upon the
husband's right to terminate the
marriage unilaterally by talaq. the
basic feature of Islamic divorce law
is in feet the right of the spouses to
terminate their marriage tty mutual
agreement outside any court oflaw.
A Muslim wife. too. has the
means, under the law, in effect to
terminate the marriage unilaterally.
Social conditions and pressures may
often deny her this course, but the
right is exercised today, under
various legal machineries, in coun-
tries as far apart as Nigeria,
Malaysia, Tunisia and Pakistan.
In proposing to end the wife's
“meal ticket for life”. English law
may now seem to be moving away
from enforcing the promise of a
lifelong commitment. My point
here, however, is merely to indicate
that the source of the problems
currently feeing English divorce law
simply does not exist in the Islamic
matrimonial system.

From Dr Lucy Carrol! Stout
Sir. Professor Coulson (May 24)
apparently urges greater liberality on
the pan of the courts and legislature
of this country in regard to
recognition of Muslim talaq
divorces. He argues that “the
contract of marriage, its legal effects
in terms of the rights and duties of
the spouses, and the modes of its
dissolution are all integral and
interrelated parts of the unity which
is [Muslim] matrimonial law"
I assume that orthodox Catholics
might well say the same about their
view of marriage. By logical
implication. Professor Coulson's
position would mean that people
married according to Catholic rites
would not be permitted divorce and
would not be allowed to practise
contracrption.
Syed Azis Pash (June 22) refers to
“the scandal of a British Muslim
man and woman being man and
wife according to British law and
strangers according to Islamic law”
I see no greater “scandal" here than
in the situation where a British
catholic man and woman may be
strangers under English law but man
and wife according to papal law.
A system of legal pluralism,
wherein a person’s legal rights
depend on his/her religion, is
productive only of confusion,
difficulties, and inequalities. Recog-
nition of “Muslim family law” as
the law applicable, in this country,
to Muslim citizens and domiciliarics
would place Muslim women in a
position inferior to that enjoyed by
other women; this kind of discrimi-
nation against a group of women
simply on the basis of their religion
threatens all women.

Sea fever
From Mr Malcolm Holliday
Sir, ft was not just the mill workers’
annual holidays in Morecambe that
gave it the name of Bradford -on-Sca
(Alan Hamilton's article, July 2).
Long-distance commuting is not
new and it was fashionable for the
Edwardian mill-owners of Bradford
to five in Morecambe for much of
the year.
The Midland Railway Company
encouraged this travelling. Eighty
years ago. there was an express train
leaving Morecambe at 7.55 on
weekday mornings, running non-
stop to Keighley and arriving in
Bradford at 9.25. The last train back
left Bradford at 4.55 in the

Rate-support grant
From Councillor David Tweedie
Sir. Methinks Mrs Hodge (July 9)
doth protest too much. At a lime of
financial stringency it is more than
ever necessary for central govern-
ment to curb foe extravagance of
local authorities if local electors are
unable to do so.
Here in Hammersmith and
Fulham we are as disadvantaged an
inner-city area as Mrs Hodge's in
Islington, yet our estimates for 1983-
84, recently circulated by the
Director of Finance, include such
items as provision for foe expendi-
ture of no less than £670,000 on
“childrens play”, of which £512,000
is made up as revenue estimates for
the salaries and wages of those
involved in the play arrangements.
Surely it must be a good idea for
local authorities to cut back in such
areas, which are really not essential,
if by so doing inflation is curbed and
the currency stays sound.
Yours sincerely.

: From the Bishop of Oxford
- Sir, I find Mr Tothum’s article (July
9), like so much of the advice freely
t lavished upon bishops, remarkably
i unhelpful to those of us who are (as
; they say) in foe living situation.
* Perhaps this is because his trans-
■ latkm from the nineteenth to foe
; twentieth century leaves so tittle
i room to discuss the latter, but if
i nowadays they really have in
r Southwark “no archdeaconry visi-
i rations**, no “meetings of the dergy
- no strengthening of each other's
i hands”, I will eat my mitre.
> What bishop is - can afford to be
- “merely an administrator"? He is
* also a preacher, a minister of the
sacraments, a pastoral visitor, a
counsellor and a publicist. Indeed,
most of his administration is
* interwoven with a pastoral and even
^ sometimes a prophetic role, for these
do not simply consist of being nice
and making “bold utterances”, but
of taking decisions or enabling other
people to do so. Or would Mr
Tolhurst prefer all such adminis-
tration to be in the hands of those
disparagingly called Church House
bureaucrats?
As for foe bishop's being “a centre
of unity”. 1 would remind Mr
Tolhurst that when, last year, more
than three quarters of the bishops of
the Church of England (with quite a
wide range of churchmanship
among them) wanted to come a bit
nearer to that ideal through the
Covenant proposals, those who
claim to be the heirs of the
Tractarians would have none of it.
Had we attempted that “real
exercise of authority” in our
dioceses which Mr Tolhurst so
much admires, and overridden foe
failure of foe General Synod, what a
hullabaloo there would have been!
No, there is a lost apostolic role
of the bishops, and not of them
alone, which has to do with the
unchurched millions of our fellow-
countrymen and foe amount of time
wc spend on addressing ourselves to
their need of the GospcL And as
long as we are taken to task for not
attending to foe internal affairs of
the Church, from General Synod
committees to foe marital break-
downs in clergy households, wc arc
likely to go on neglecting that role.

Clerical habits
From the Reverend Claude Riches
Sir, Your correspondent. Angela
Wheatcroft (July 9). suggests that
clergy should receive some training
in management techniques and that
more of them should be members of
the British Institute of Management
May I. as a cleric who is a member
of that institute and who has had
experience in both large urban and
small rural parishes, say that I have
seldom had opportunity in the
ordinary day-to-day activities of foe
parish to apply anything more than
the most elementary management
know-how.
Many of the administrative
pressures upon a parish priest come,
not so much from the people with
whom he lives and works in the
parish, but more from those who
manage affairs at diocesan level, it is
at this level ax which there appears
to be some confusion about the
place of the Church in society and in
particular the role of the bishop in
the Church.
Certainly I would agree with Ms
Wheatcroft that archdeacons and
bishops should receive some train-
ing in management since most of
them have been appointed, no
doubt, for qualities of a different
kind. Those responsible for appoint-
ing them might well remember that
old adage. “Great distinction in one
field is no barrier to extreme
foolishness in another'*.

Wayward water
From Professor A. Kennaway
Sir. Gaspard Gustave de Coriolis
must be turning in his grave - but
which way is the subject of another
research - at the irrelevant use of his
forces to explain the rotation of
water leaving plug holes.
For such forces to impart a
controlling rotation, the diameter of
the pool would have to be very large,
well over the size of foe average
reservoir. What has been overlooked
is that pools of water are rarely
completely still; local movement
imparted to the water will normally
determine foe direction of rotation
from foe exit orifice if that is felly
symmetrical.
May 1 suggest that your readers
participate in a mass experiment?
Fill a wash basin and stir with a
finger for some 10 rotations; leave
fOT varying periods up to 10 minutes
and pull foe plug and observe foe
direction of exit rotation. It shook!

One handled and fifty years
ago,, on July 14, 1833 John
Kettle's Assize Sermon on
“National Apostasy” began
what we now identify as the
Oxford Movement. The im-
mediate occasion was the
suppression of some Irish
bishoprics, but beneath lay the
deeper issue of the spiritual
autonomy of the Church. The
Tractarians rejected the whole
notion of the Church-state
alliance in which the Church
was seen ana department of the
secular power.
The movement was founded,
as Newman wrote, on a deadly
antagonism against Erastianism.
or Caesarism,. Yet, while the
ritualist priests from the 1860s
onwards were almost all anti-
establishment, ■ within several
Ubwum U1C UAJU1U JVlUVCliiGUi
had been absorbed into the
“middle Anglican’' culture, and
its rebel tradition had been
absorbed. That situation has
prevailed to this day.
This year many who celebrate
this anniversary will do so with
a backward-looking, romanti-
cized view of the movement.
Anglo-Catholirism today tends
to ding to the ethos and rejoice
in the victories of the past, but - ;
not to be easily at home in the :
present. Yet there were import-
ant insights in the Oxford i
Movement, and in the tend-' <
endes which developed from h,
which are of permanent impor-
tence to fo«*- Christian con-
sciousness.
First, die movement sought
to recover the sense of the
Church as a holy people,, a
community called to prayer and
to holiness, Tt promoted the
deepening of spiritual . life,
restored the' Eucharist to its
rightful place at the centre of
Christian worship and, amid
violent controversy, urged the
renewal -of the practice of
confession.
It had no time for conven-
tional religion. Hence the
emphasis on the spiritual, as
opposed, to the political, per-
spective of the movement.
Paradoxically, it was tfear
rejection ■ of involvc-
iucui wmtii, m me climate Ol
the Church-Tory allian c e , read e
the movement most subversive:
Spirituality, in a politicized
Church, leads to disaffiliation
Secondly, . the movement .
sought to restore what Newman
called “the prophetical office of
the Church". By that he meant
the leaching office,' but he also -
wrote, in his study of Arianism.
that the Church was created to
meddle- in the aflairs of the
world.
It was a later generation,' the
Catholic Socialists of the school -
of Charl es Marson and Stewart
Birthdays
Headlam, who took this
seriously. They .changed the
course 1 of the movement in a
direction which wotdd have
horrified both the cariy Tracta-
rians and the Christian Social-
ists of the time of F. D.
Maurice. For a while their
theology came from Maurice,
they united that theology to a
Catholic sacramental, outlook.
The result, was a ‘vigorous
movement for social justice
which, under the influence of
Conrad Nod, John Groser and
others in the Catholic Crusade
-in the 1920s, also began' to
grapple with issues raised by
Martian.
Thirdly, the movement was
oncerned with the urban poor.
This can be exaggerated; the
vimv nf" rh, ennm mruk nr
typical of the ritualist move-
ment is certainly incorrect. In
much of. its .manifestation,
Anglo-Cazholidsm was a gen-
teel. bourgeois, even dainty
movemept. Yet.it is a fact that
in many back-street districts, '
ritualism broke the identifi-
cation of the Church of England
with the mirirffe rfar« and with*
respectability. In the ministries
of Lewder and Wadnwrighi in
Wapping, or Dolling in Por-
tsmouth, we see a pastoral
priesthooL cnmTTriffrrf to the
poor, and unconcerned with
ecdesastical promotion. In the
ministries of Hrarfomf and*-
Groser the - pastoral ' becomes
poEticaL :
The' most vitiuAUe way to
commemorate-, „fhe‘. - .Oxford,
■ Movement today its to work for
these three ends: a Church
which is ; deeply sgtricual. and
prayerful; .'» Church Whirit will
prophesy against the secular
power; and a Church which will
become identified with the
struggles and longings of the
poor and the downtrodden. But
if these ends axe pursued, it wifi,
mean a greater degree of
seriousness in' the area of
spiritual discipline than prevails,
in most church life: It will mean
a deter mina tion to work to end
the Church-state affiance, for
disestablishment is foe logical
end of the Tractarian demand.
It. wifi also mean a zeal
commitment to social Justice
against those who decree iniqui-
tous decrees and grind the feces
of the poor. That may not be '
.what Newman had in mind, but
it would be a 'real' recovery of
the prophetical office of foe
Church.

Pride and sadness at Attlee centenary
A pair of pipes, a battered bombing,
a map of Gallipoli ia a glass
plus a modest gathering of East
Endcrc and veterans of the Labour
governments of 1945-51 is the way
Clemenl_ Attlee, politician, soldier
and social reformer, would have
lilted his family, friends and

centenary of his birth.
A balmy summer evening in
Limefaouse Public Library on
Thursday, at the opening of an
Attlee exhibition, inevitably recalled
another warm July day in Lime-
house 38 years ago when the
diminutive uchuni Labour leader
chatted with constituents and the
votes piled in which were , to give
him the greatest of post war
majorities, 146 seats, two more Hun
the total amassed by Mrs Margaret
Thatcher at the general election last
month.
Inevitably, Labour veterans
reflected on what bad gone wrong

included the words, “remember you

SIR HUGH ARBUTHNOT
O.L.G. writes:
Your brief obituary notice
(July 7) gave an interesting and
accurate recital of Hugh’s
several masterships over some
35 years (omitting only the Eton
- Beagles) but perhaps, a brother
officer might be allowed to add
a few words.
Hugh had the good fortune as
a young man to serve in one of
foe most distinguished bat-
talions m the Brigade of Guards
- albeit a ‘'wartime’* one,
namely 3rd Battalion Welsh
Guards, and with , them com-
manded a platoon from Tunisia
in 1943 to foe Argenta Gap in
Italy at the end of foe campaign.
The standard set in 'this
battalion was high, even - by
brigade standards, and Hugh
showed great courage and zest
. for foe battle at all times, and
was adored by his men. Thes«?
were qualities that he carried
later into foe hunting field, 1
where his deep love and
understanding of foe sport, 1
together with a very special'
knowledge of his hounds,
ensured him a unique place. -
A person with an enormous
sense of fun, Hugh had at times'
more than a touch of Jack :
Mytton (also Shropshire bora)
and for the ' uninitiated'' a-
spontaneous' excursion could- -
grove an alarming experience. "■
But he was at heart a gentle,
co mpass ionate man. who will-

., Sunday morning.
A school is the right place to
No one who has thought
‘of sampling the
experience should miss it
Jim Russell's “introductory
trial” costs £37.50, for which
the customer receives a briefing
on the use of a Hewland racing
gearbox and the correct pos-
itioning of the hands on the
steering wheel, an introduction
to the concepts of the “balanced
throttle” and the “constant
radius”, and a sermon stressing
the importance of smoothness
in all things. These are followed
by a chance to spend 40
minutes driving one of the
school's Van Diemen Formula
Ford single-seaters up and down
a marked section of Hangar
Straight, turning around cones
at either end, accelerating up
through the gears, touching
perhaps 80 mph on the way.
It may not sound much, but
it is already enough to send
shivers of excitement -through-
anyone with a predisposition to
such activity. The view from
the steeply reclined seat an
ua padded fibreglass moulding
which (with the aid of a tightly
drawn four-point harness) pro-
vides complete support .and
suprising comfort, is just as one
hart imagined. At eye level on
either side, the tyres bobble up
and down on the tarmac,
framing horizons which, down
there a couple of indies off the
ground, rush up at a speed to
make the adrenalin pump.
The tiny, thick-rimmed steer-
ing wheel, sensitive to the
slightest adjustment, is held in a
relaxed stance which is neither
the^ straight-arm posture in-
vented -by_> Dr Guiseppe farina-
nor the ferocious crouch of a-
Froilan Gonzalez. Between the
spokes of the wheel is a tilted
rev-counter with a red “tell-
tale” needle to record missed
gear-shifts or simple' over-
enthusiasm. A couple of indies
to the right of the wfaeeTs rim is
tiie stubby gear-lever, operated,
in a normal H-pattera but with
the most economical flicks of
the wrist.
The feet disappeared from
view upon entry. They must
find the three pedals by touch
alone: the short but not unkind
movement of the dutch, the
hard but very fast-acting brakes,
the accelerator which delivers
power vin an immediate and
exhilarating surge. The pleasure
is in the coordination of all
these elements, in getting them
to work with a natural flow as
they become familiar. The
tautness and sensitivity of the
tiny single-seater represent a
completely new sensation, and
an encouraging one: the im-
mediate response is to want to
go fester.
The next step is to enrol in
the school’s course, but even at
this early stage discretion is
exercised, and some t rial is ts are
quietly advised that they would
be wasting their time and
money. The rest part with a £10
fee, and sign on.
A few weeks later, on a grey
day more suited to the Nur-
burgring, we learnt about going
round comers. The blackboards
begin braking by the white turn
board, change down to third at
the 100-yard board, turn into
the comer by the small white-
painted square, clip the bevelled
kerbing on the inside of the torn
opposite that grating over there
and hold the kerb for four
yards, unwind'' the' lock' and
squeeze on the power, straigh-
tening the car up six inches
from the left-hand edge on the
exit, just by the end of the black
repair patch in the tarmac. Got
it?
I'm sorry. Would you go
through that again?
There are four comers on the
Dub Circuit, and they all have
to be learned by that kind of
technique. A crocodile of cars
makes its way through each one,
circling back to do it a gw fo and
again, stopping on the way to
receive the comments of the
instructors, who stand on the
kerbs pointing to the relevant
landmarks.
The theoretical part seems at
first confusing and disjointed,
but after homework with
diagrams and maps it all
becomes dearer at the sub-
sequent “lapping sessions”.
Each session is of eight laps,
completed in, one hopes, an
unbroken sequence: 12 such
sessions must be undertaken,
along with two sessions on the
school's skid-pan at the Snetter-
tou circuit in Norfolk, before a
pupil can be passed through to
join the closed race meetings at
which graduates compete
against each other in the
school's cars.
penalties severe enough to boot
over-rewers out of the honours.
Even the rock ape will have to
learn that particular discipline.
The instructors invigilate at
each comer; their subsequent
comments are detailed and
critical but, unless there has
been a., major gaffe, . always
constructive: “Don’t go round
Copse as if it were the edge of
an old threepenny bit - one
smooth application of lock,
please”: “You missed second at
Becketts because you’re snatch-
ing the gears"; “Yonr line is
good at Woodcote - now try
feeding the power in earlier and
you’ll go quicker.”
The presence of other cars on
the track, travelling at a variety
of speeds, begins an introduc-
tion to the experience of racing.
Surprisingly, most learners are
polite to the point of timidity,
clearing out of the way of
anyone who looks likely to
overtake. A few are like the rock
ape: one must learn to deal with
them, for they are the dominant

approaching Copse, the first
comer after the pits, keep the
car exactly 12 inches from the
left-hand edge of the track, -
The lapping sessions are
where the hard work bears fruit
and where the serious fun
begins. ‘ Engine-speed limits
must be rigorously observed: a
gentle 3,500 rpm to begin with,
rising in 500 rpm increments to
an upper limit of 5,500 - a
maximum which is also
observed in the school races, on
penalty of fines and time

READING
Although It waspubflshed more
than 20 years ago and is currently
out Of print, the Technique of
Motor Racing by the great Italian
driver Piero Taruffi is stfll
acknowledged to be the most
profound and comprehensive guide
to the principles of race driving.
Also recommended, from the same
wo, an Sports Car and
Competition Driving by Paul Frfire
(Bentley, £6.50) and Denis
Jenkinson’s The Racing Driver
(also Bentley. £&50): the former for
Its practical advice, tha latter for a
more esoteric, psychoanalytical
view. Good recent books indude

could do n labouring job for a
year and, if yen were prepared
to live on nothing, save enough
for a season in Formnla Ford.
Oddly enough it's even cheaper
today, allowing for inflation.
“A Formula Ford doesn't
have wings and it uses skinny
tyres, but it's a real racing car
and the standard of competition
is very high. The competitors
are usually evenly match ed The
races can get a bit hairy’* but it
isn’t so fast that it gets terribly
dangerous. The circuits they
race on have been designed for
■mure powerful cars, so there’s
some margin for error. But it's
so fiercely competitive that
people who just want to race as
a hobby might perhaps do better
to look elsewhere.”
Hunt attributes the recent
lack of Grand Prix success by
British driven to the division of
vital sponsorship money at
lower levels. “We do, without
doubt, have the strongest dnb
raring in the world, bat the
money is spread so thinly that it
becomes difficult to spot the real
talent. When a Brazilian comes
over here to make a reputation
in British racing” - as Nelson
Piquet once did and as Ayrton
Senna is doing now - “he brings
with him the full benefit of all
the available Brazilian sponsor-
ship. That gives him a better
car, better preparation and a
better chance.”
To rectify the unbalance,
Hunt is participating in a
scheme whose organizers hope
to discover and promote the next
British star. In the past few
weeks the Marlboro Challenge
has sifted through more than
1,000 inexperienced hopefuls,

Mushroom mountains of Turkey’s
Robin Laurance
visits a remote
region where time
has stood still
I first went to Turkey on the
Orient Express. The tram’s
glorious days, when it sped to
Constantinople through a
Europe of longs and emperors
cocooning its passengers in
Victorian splendour, had long
since departed. The revived
version was yet to arrive.
Cramped, dirty, noisy, smelly
and with nothing on board to
eat or drink for the three days
and nights, the journey very
soon gave the lie to Stevenson’s
assurance that to travel hope-
fully is a better thing than to
arrive. In short, it was murder
on the Orient Express. There
was. however, one consolation.
His name was Gungor, and I
met him soon after crossing the
Yugoslav border.
Gungor had retired from the
Turkish navy, and although as a
submariner he had no fear of
spending days and weeks
umpteen thousand leagues
under the sea, he was terrified
of flying. He thus knew the train
well and willingly passed on dps
which helped to make the
second half of the journey
decidedly more tolerable than
the first. But more valuable
than any of bis helpful hints on
railway survival was his insist-
ence that on some future visit to
Turkey I spend some time in
Cappadocia.
Gungor’s parting words at
Istanbul Sirkeci station beside
the Bosphorus were a reminder
to visit Cappadocia for a reason
which at the time seemed a little
obscure. “Cappadocia”, he
called down the platform, only
just making himself heard
■above all the commotion. “It’s
nearer than the moon.'*

Cappadocia looks like the
moon. Or rather, I bet the moon
looks like Cappadocia. It is a
relatively remote region about
160 miles south-east of the
Turkish capital, Ankara. More
than 2,000 years ago, before the
Hittites do minate d the area, the
volcano of Erciyas Dagi (Mount
Argaeus of Roman times)
hurled its fiery waste across the
Cappadocian plain with relent-
less- fury. Centuries passed
before it finally burnt itself out
leaving the region covered in a
thick layer of laval tuff
With the passing of time, the
wind and the rain shaped the
soft tuff into this extraordinary
lunar landscape: gentle folds
and nigged canyons; vast rock
cones shaped like giant an thills
and others round and phallic -
very phallic - topped some-
times with little hats that turn
them into long-stemmed mush-
rooms; the figures of an
invading army, so mythology
has it, turned to stone by Allah.
But look more closely, and
these cones of rock have doors
and windows and window-
boxes too. . And sprouting
incongruously from the tops of
some of them like the antennae
of prehistoric beasts, television
aerials announce the arrival —
even here - of what must be a
strange and alien culture. For
this is Cappadocia, home for
one of the world’s few re main ,
ing troglodyte communities.

of passages connects halls,
rooms, burial chambers on 10
different levels. The deeper you
explore the colder it gets; and
foe more yon think about foe
people living and dying here
without ever seeing the light of
day and constantly living in fear
of being discovered, the more
you shiver. •
When at last it was safe, foe
Cappadocians surfaced again
and built their new rock homes
and churches under the wide
Anatolian sky. St Paul, bom 160
miles south at Tarsus, included
the Cappadocians in one of his
Epistles. At Goreme fine
examples of the churches
remain today. There is the
church of the snakes - the
fresco, a little faded but still well
preserved in outline, shows St
George slaying foe dragon. In
the Dark Church the paintings
depict the life of Christ In the
refectory a long table and
benches have been carved from
the rock.
Outside again in the twen-
tieth century, life for the
Cappadocians goes on much as
it did many hundreds of years
ago. There is electricity of
Course, television, transistor
radios and refrigerators. Where
crude holes provided the doors
and windows of earlier rode
homes, today there are locks on
the doors and glass in the
windows. But the comforts of
life remain few. Horses and
donkeys provide the transport;
man and beast drink from the
same village tap. It is a hard life
on a land that demands much
but yields little. Former inhabi-
tants turned areas' of the
rock face into pigeonries to
collect the guano for fertilizer.
Although the pigeonries are still
very much in evidence today
(you can see them above the
village of Ughisar) foe birds
have flown and alternative
fertilizers are hard to come by.
Tbs Cappadocians for nil
their hardships are a warm and
welcoming people as are the

We ale spiced meat balls from a
large open pan placed between

There was'yogurt,too.and bread

Further down the street, at foe

been more than 10 years old
was turning an onyx vase on a

full of vases, bowls, candle-

His skill was no more nor less

True or imaginary, the names
share a graveyard that looks out
on to one of those stupendous
Arizona landscapes of seem-
ingly endless desert and hard,
wrinkled, lilac-coloured moun-
tains. There, in the desert, is the
real history of the achievement
that settled the for West.
Imagine the journeys by horse
and wagon, in summer tem-
peratures that can go to 1207,
the hardships of life without
running water and clean cloth-
ing, of cooking on a hot stove.

Indians settled Arizona. Traces
of their civilization are all over

respect and guilt- Into these
[daces the showbiz myth of the
West does not enter.
One worth ’ the . trip is
Montezuma’s Well and Castle,'
a few miles off Interstate
Highway 17 east of Phoenix.
The well is a large limestone
sink fed from underground
springs. The Indian formers
built irrigation channels to
guide the water down to their
forms. The water still prattles
along. them. Visitors leave then-
care and climb a steep path to
look over a rail at the well.
stand in that total silence, and
ponder.
The castle, now a ruin, was
originally a 20-room palace, I
suppose you’d call it. The
Indians who carved it out of the
soft stone 'worked on h for 300
years, adding, altering. It must
have seemed to them, as to all
the tribes that lived off the
desert, that aQ time there was
stretched unchang in g before
them. Then, one day, an Indian
turned his head and saw coming
towards him the first European.
All that is left of them are
these rums and their irrigation
system. The network of canals
built by the HoHokam Indians
still runs through Phoenix. And
their system is ax the heart of a
brilliant paradox about Arizo-
na: in the heart of desert
country, it produces the second
largest, agricultural yield in the
United States. The teeming
vegetables in the supermarkets,
harvested all year round, are
watered from the great rfRmc
and underground sinks.

has more mobsters per head,

report published white 1 was
there. It says much for the deep
impression these resourceful
and ingenious Arizonans
on me that I accepted thiy fact
without question, in spite of
mishearing the word on the
radio as ‘'lobsters”. Lobsters in
Arizona? Why not.

Betty Joel is a name in En glish
furniture design of the 1920s
and 1930s that has never
received proper attention. Her
work is still frequently, dis-
missed by her contemporaries
as unpleasantly chic or even
kitsch, while she has been all
but ignored by the present
generation of design historians.
Nevertheless, it now seems that
some dealers are beginning to
see the many qualities of her
furniture designs, and those
pieces that do come on the
market are being quietly
snapped up ready for her
the reassessment
of a “new” designer hardly
justifies the research, but in the
case of Betty Joel the main
question seems to be rather why
her work has lain neglected for
so long. She designed furniture
which was an astute mixture or
elements of European Modern-
ism and the luxury of French
Art Deco and also rugs (one is
in the Victoria ana Albert
Museum) which were; in terms
of English design of the period,
exceptional.
Betty Joel was born in 1896
in Ghing where her father. Sir
lames Stewart Lockhart, was an
administrator. Before the First
World War she met and
married a young naval officer,
David Joel, who had an
amateur interest in carpentry
and furniture-malting. Around
1 920 he left the Navy and set up
a partnership with his wife
making furniture to her designs.
These early designs, known
as “Token” furniture because
they were made of teak and oak,
they described as “severely
simple”: they were indeed, and
it may have been the aesthetic
amateurishness of this early
period which Betty Joel's
contemporaries remember
today. However she learnt fast
and by the late 1920s, when she
and her husband opened a new
gallery at 25 Knightsbridge
(destroyed by war-time bombs),
she had evolved a sophisticated
style of her own.
Photographs show the
Knightsbridge gallery, which
consisted of several rooms set
out like real interiors and a
special picture gallery where she
exhibited works by artists such
as Marie Laurencin, Raoul
Dufy and Henri Matisse, to
have a cool elegance and a real
understanding of the design
issues of her day.
Betty Joel Ltd sold a range of
textiles from such firms as
Rodier and the progressive
Edinburgh Weavers; rugs (she
was one of the first to exhibit
rugs, by da Silva Brnhns, one of
the instigators of the geometric
Modernist rug); smaller items
such as sflk scarves; and, of
course, her own furniture. In
this she believed firmly in
functionalism; she pioneered
the then fairly radical idea of
flush surfaces, with recessed
handles and only strictly necess-
ary mouldings or projections.
Where other British designers
who were influenced by the
Bauhaus or Le Corbusier tended
to use inexpensive materials,
such as plywood. Betty Joel

capitalized on the importation
of exotic woods such as those
publicized by the Board of
Trade at the British Empire
Exhibition of 1934. The em-
ployment of contrasting woods
and beautiful veneered surfaces
added a richness of effect to her
use of contrasting curves and
parallels. Purist critics, how-
ever, remained scepticaL One
writer in the Architectural
Review commented on a Betty
Joel dressing table in 1935:
“The superabundance of Joel
curves was excused to me on
the grounds that they echo the
Feminine Form”.
It is highly unlikely that the
confident Mrs Joel felt any need
to make excuses for her
form rure. Her designs were both
practical and attractive and she
.was never short of customers
during the 1930s. She worked
not only for individuals such as
Winston Churchill, Lord Mount-
batten or a Harley Street eye
surgeon, but also for the Savoy
group of hotels and many
exclusive showrooms and
boardrooms.
By the 1930s the Joels bad
their own factory on the
Kingston by-pass where they
employed about 50 craftsmen.
The furniture is superbly made,
with the finest quality materials:
superfluous ornament was elim-
inated and pieces are easily
recognizable by their “perfec-
tion of line and proportion”, as
Beuy Joel herself described her
designs.
Visitors to the Savoy in
London can see her large,
elegant circular mirrors still in
use and still conveying the
discreet effect of luxury for
which they were commissioned.
Better still, they can wait for
more pieces to appear in the
salerooms and dealers* win-
dows.

Signor Baffi, 195 Shenlay Road,
Borah am wood, Hertfordshire (953
8404). Open noon-3pra and 7pm-
11pm Mon-Fri; 7pm-1 1.30pm Sat
The autographed photos on
gnor Barn’s wall - John
ayne, Sophia Loren, Cilia
Black - testify to the res-
taurant's key position between
EMTs Elstree film studio and
Central Television's southern
base. Indeed, behind the rather
dull shopping-parade frontage
forks a haunt of the movie
world’s famous and powerful,
where you’re likely to find
broccoli on the menu and
Broccoli sitting near you.
In deference to this strand of
their clientele, Baffi’s boasts
several flourishes to its other-
wise familiar trattoria card -
Chateaubriand for two (£14.80),
fresh lobster and Scotch salmon
when in season and even
flown in specially
Among the antipasti, the
deep-fried mushrooms (fought
alia Piero, £1.35) are worth
trying for a change, and the sea-
food salad, which is an
occasional daily special, is
delicious and comprehensive at
£180. In feet, it's best to check
the specials blackboard first for
sea-food alternatives to the veal
and chicken dishes on the menu
- perhaps a lightly fried halibut
steak (£6.10). Traditionalists
will not be disappointed by the
grilled fegaio served with lean
rashers of bacon (£4.20) or the
tender, bread crumbed escalope
Milanese (£3.90). The wine-list
has a particularly good Frascati
(Fomana Candida ’81) at £5.40
per bottle.
Bubblss Wine a Cocktail Bar, 209
Stanley Road, Borahamwood,
Hertfordshire (953 5098)
Open 11am-2L30pm and 5L30-
10.30pm (11pm Fri, Sat) daily
A few doors along from Signor
Baffi’s, the technicians, that
other power-base of the enter-
tainment industry, gather in
large numbers at Bubbles.
Ostensibly a wine-bar. Bubbles

whistle or a leer from the gold-
chained, Lonsdalc-shincd.

The food on offer is strictly

potato (£1.50). burger and chips
(£2.75) or T-bonc steak (£5.S0)
featured the lunchtime I called.
Variety was added with a
reasonable moussaka. strangely
laced with courgettes (£2.25),
and a charmlessly presented,
though otherwise palatable, veal
escalope in a garlic and tomato
sauce. Half-bottles of a modest
Muscadcl (Robert Noel) are
£1.75 with Italian house wine at
a rather cheeky £4.50.
Relief from the thunderous
sound-system and over-bearing
locker-room atmosphere may
be found downstairs and I'd
guess it must be quieter and
more approachable at week-
ends. though not on Tuesday or
Thursday evenings when there's
a disco to contend with.

is a graduation of scaie, not of
Ope. .
It is also a graduation of
financial outlay. Whereas a
successful season in the national
Formula Three championship
would require a budget of
around £100,000, the right
driver can be a Formula Ford
winner for less than £10,000,
For no more than £2,000 he can
buy himself a car built during
the early years of the formula
and enjoy himself in the special
Championship for pre-1974
models; even there he can
establish a reputation.
Personal experience, after
several lessons, suggests that the
whole _ business is completely
addictive. Anyone who gets
pleasure from driving must feel
a real satisfaction from balanc-
ing a single-seater through a fast
curve, up against the rev Kmil
in top; from taking flight up the
straight past empty grandstands
and flags hanging limply on an
airless summer day;' frot;.
executing a dean and decisive
overtaking manoeuvre; from
coming in to discover that you
have just knocked a couple of
seconds off your previous best
lap time.
Is it dangerous? Is it frighten-
ing? The wisest words belong to
the Belgian driver Paul Frere. a
Le Mans winner in I960:
“During the race, try to drive a
little fester than is enjoyable.
You cannot go really fast
without frightening yourself
occasionally."
The 26 runners in todav’s
Formula One Grand Prix all got
hooked on that sensation, and
the others, early in their careers.
Few among us have whatever it
takes to go so fer. but even in a
simple form the feeling is worth
sharing. On the other hand, it
may be remembered that the
great Fangio did not take the
first of his five world champion-
ships until his fortieth year. . .

We look around the occupants

I had to be Cannonized before I
joined the believers. For years I
have resisted the awful truth
that exercise is good for you -
until Geoffrey Cannon pat the
point so forcibly in Dieting
Makes' You FaL I almost bought
a pair of jogging shorts.
That, however, would cer-
tainly have frightened the
horses, so I looked around for
an exercise class. The smart
sort was not for me - classmates
who are young and lithe enough
to wear shiny leotards I can do
without. 1 wanted a group that
doesn't make me feel old or
inadequate. I found ft rather
unexpectedly at the London
Central YMCA.
Their latest exercise pro-
gramme is called Introduction
to Fitness and is intended for
people who have not exercised
for some time - or ever. Each
participant is taught jnst what
to expect of different types of
exercise.
What is more, you don't have
to rush off* in your lunch hour or
miss the last train home because
of your fitness programme. The
YMCA will supply qualified
physical education specialists
who will visit groups of office
workers at their own premises.
Apart from the classes held at
their headquarters they go to 45
“outside'' venues so there may
be one m your area already.
If not. and if you can organize
about 15 to 20 colleagues and
have a space available, a teacher
will come any time - finch times
or after office hours — to your
docar for £150 a person. They
win adapt a programme to suit
the group.
At the moment this facility is
available only in L on don,
though the YMCA are hoping
to organize a national pro-
gramme. Meanwhile branches
throughout the country offer a
variety of exercise classes at
their own premises. The London
Central branch in Great RusseH
Street, WC1, has particularly
splendid leisure facilities Includ-
ing squash, badminton, sauna
and solarium, with classes in
aerobics, dance, yoga, circuit
training and swimming. Most
activities are included in the

“There was a large amount of

inappropriate as a topping for

savoury pancake.- but some-
thing that looks like dog meat is
not a pleasant experience.” .
# Iiz (mother of a three-year-

I’m desperate to lose weight, I

Now I find all this extremely
puzzling. No company delibera-
tely puts a normal food product
on the market that offends the
eye and the palate. Why should
a "slimming” food be different?
Energen say they test-mar-
keted the products on 100
tasters who all approved them
as being “very dose to normal
meals”, although they did
admit: “We don’t profess it is
gourmet food."
Were all my testers wrong?

but I suppose I can’t blame
anyone but myself for that.
Since, then I have tried
another, product called Frefii,
which is supposed to limit the
appetite. The dose is two
teaspoons of chocolate-fla-
voured granules taken with half
a pint of water half an hour
before a meaL It smells like
cocoa powder - you don't chew
it, so taste is irrelevant - and
washing down dry granules is
slightly difficult, but I found the
result was indeed a reduction in
the misery of emptiness.
The product is made of
milled gum (the ingredient used
in soups and ketchups for
thickening) which expands
inside more than any other fibre
and can have similar laxative
effects on people -who are not
used to a high-fibre diet.
Prefil is available for about
£2.95 for a week’s supply, taken
three times a day (although you
do not have to take it at
breakfast if you are not
normally hungry then). Names

Stylish whites from the Kiwis
The day that I realized New
Zealand was not just two
islands in the south Pacific
churning out a constant stream
of kiwi fruit, frozen lamb and
butter but was also an import-
ant wine-producing country was
just over two years ago. The
occasion was a tutored tasting
conducted by John Avery (a
well-travelled Bristol wine
merchant) for a keen group of
wine hacks, known somewhat
unoriginally as the Scribblers,
who met once a month to taste
and discuss their favourite
subject.
As usual the wines were
tasted bMnd and things got off to
a shaky start with some dreary
Muller-Tburgau and Pinot Gris
wines, but half-way down this
kiwi line-up there was an
amazing Gisborne Gewurztra-
miner that had all the spice and
class of an Alsace wine yet with
an intriguing extra dimension
that definitely put it in the New
World category. Three wines
later came a hefty, grassy
Cabernet. Sauvignon - not in
the same league as the Gewurz-
traminer. but again a true
varietal wine and stylish with it.
By this time I was convinced
that New Zealand could and did
make fine wine.

Just as well that I was
impressed with that kiwi
Gewflrztraminer, for four
months later at another blind
tasti n g, especially nerve-racking
for the results were going to be
splashed all over one of the
Sunday magazines, np popped
the same wine. What gave it
away was not its spicy peppery
Alsace-style bouquet, but its
rich full palate, with distinct
New World overtones: it was
simply not austere enough to be
Alsatiaiij and yet its highish
acidity immediately ruled out
the Cape and California. It had
to be that extraordinarily good
Gewiirztnuniner from New
Zeala n d that I had tasted in the
spring.
The reason why New Zealand
produces wines like the Gis-
borne Gerwflrztraminer that are
much closer to the European
model than those other hot New
World areas of Australia,
California and South Africa, is
simply New Zealand's cool
temperate climate. At no point
on either the north or the south
island are you ever more than
110 kilometres from the sea,
and the most important kiwi
vineyards make frill use of the
beneficial maritime influences.

tries. New Zealand's is a curious
■mixture of old and new; old in
that the first vines were planted
by a missionary, Samuel Mar-
sden. on the north island in
1819, and new in that the
industry did not really start to
develop until 1970. But from
then on developments were
dramatic.
New Zealand tended then to
look towards Germany rather
than France for vinous advice
and in 1972 Dr Helmut Becker
from Germany’s leading wine
school - Geisenheim - visited
New Zealand and brought with
him a suitcase frill of vine
cuttings. Coincidence perhaps,
but since 1974 there has been a
hefty 75 per cent increase in
New Zealand's vineyards and
the leading grape variety by a
long way is Germany’s Muller-
Thurgau. New Zealand has also
adopted the German habit of
adding sUss-reserve or unfer-
mented grape juice (back-blend-
ing the Kiwis call it) to give
some sweetness to their wines.
Despite this teutonic influ-
ence New Zealand, to my mind,
has actually had more success
with its French varieties. The
light, fruity Muller-Tburgau and
Rhine Riesling wines are
pleasant but New Zealand's
Oienin Blanc wines definitely
have more to say for them-
selves. The Chardonnay is
considered by many to have the
most potential, although I think
it will be a while yet before the
Kiwis crack this one. For me
New Zealand's star white wines
are still their Gew&rtztraminers,
and the finest is still that north
island Gisborne Grawflntra-
mincr made by Denis Irwin -
his Matawhero ’82 for instance
is as spicy, fresh and traditional
as one could ask for, backed up
by a rich frniiy taste. (Averys,
7 Park Street, Bristol, £4.46.)
The top reds are still pro-
duced by the Nobilo family
estate whose Cabernet Sauvig-
non I also tasted two years ago.
The classic ’78 Nobilo Knot
Noir (£5.51 from Averys. who
also cany the excellent Nobilo
*78 Cabernet Sauvignon and
Pinotajge'fbr £5.42 and £4.84
respectively) is their impressive
wine, a remarkable achieve-
ment and, as I wrote earlier this
year, the nearest any New
World winemaker has got to the
Burgundian original. So even if
we thrash the Kiwis at the Oval
this week spare a thought please
for their wines.

The pride of smoky
London town
IN THE GARDEN
The commonest tree in London
is almost without doubt the
London plane. Its botanical
name is not frilly established,
and it is seen both as Plaianusx
hispanica and Platanus x
acerifolia. There are also a
□umber of forms.
The reason for tbe presence
of so many London planes in
our towns and cities is that one
of the attributes of the genus is
its ability to withstand a
polluted atmosphere. Since the
Clean Air Act, tbe atmosphere
in and around our great cities
has much improved, and there
is no longer the need, to plant
the plane in such large numbers.
But there is every reason to
continue to plant such a noble
tree wherever there is space.
It is generally accepted that
Platanus x acerifolia, is a cross
between Platanus occidentals
and Platanus orientals,
although this has never been
fully proved. It is a big tree,
needing a lot of room to
develop, it is very vigorous and
reaches maturity quickly. It has
a well-branched crown, with
strong but airy branches, which
makes it attractive in winter as
well as summer.
Leaves can differ consider-
ably from specimen to speci-

Pruning frnlt trees
Summer pruning of fruit trees is
done to check vigour and to allow
sun&ght and air to get to the buds
lower on the stem.
Prune when the shoots
have stopped extending but the
tree is to full leaf. TWs can be any
time from tete July to August.
Leaders are not touched, but
laterals are reduced by up to half
their length: there should always be
four or five (eaves left on the shoot.
Often arising from the laterals are
other side snoots; It is advisable to
reduce these to about two leaves.
Fruiting buds are formed at the
base of the pruned laterals.

Sadly the spectacle of Europe’s

To create a variety of authenti-
cally Indian flavours at home I
still need recipes, and Madhnr
Jeffrey's are foe best I have
found.
The video Madhnr Jeffrey’s
Indian Cookery is taken from
foe television programmes
which were a model of how to
teach cooking on foe box. Clear
explanations, and a good view
of foe alchemy in progress,
are foe essentials. The menu of
12 dishes - which runs from
tandoori murghi to rogan josh,
shahi koorma . spiced basmati
rice, samasas and poori -
provides a sound foundation
course in one of the world's
great cuisines. Viewed as enter-
tainment it can be repetitive.
But if you like eating Indian
food and warn to learn to cook
iL Madhnr lafirey is foe cook to
consult. Her painstaking pre-
cision win irritate only those
who are not prepared to walk
before they run.
The Observer Guide to Euro-
pean Cookery was foe only
other tape in this selection that
made me impatient to stop
watching and start cooking.
Jane Grigson’s agreeable man-
ner is allied to great good sense.
“Too much regularity in these
things looks a bit soulless." 1
fortune, watch Jane Origson.
The production of the Ob-
server tape is a bit pedestrian t6

television age accustomed to a
slick variety of angles, shots and
editing. Pnie Leith’s Cooking

Spain, and eight more dishes,

Her Indian lamb curry based on
leftover roast meat is a poor
affair compared with Madhnr
Ja firry' s shahi koorma. but her
moussaka looked marvellous.
The sloppy showy style of
presentation spoiled the look of
foe food for me. but Prue
Leith’s Techniques and tips are
thoroughly practical.

A Complete Dinner Party with
Helge Rubinstein mesmerized
by foe slowness of the action. If
you want to see six onions being
chopped before your very eyes,
or to be instructed in foe an of
choosing foe right knife and
fork from the selection before
you. this might be the cookery
video to choose. Mrs Rubins-
tein’s tablespoon looked suspi-
ciously like a serving spoon to
me. and this was the tape worst
aflicted with words for their
own sake; “I'm just going to
start now". “Now I'll just give it
another stir"
The cringe-making preten-
tiousness of Robert Comer's
Food. U'me and Friends is
curiously counteracted by the
22-carat charm of foe glamor-
ous ham himself. All his friends
are stars and in his own
kitchens he upstages them one
after another, even Virginia

finger-licking, are rich and

matters not. For good cooking

rier’s ringmaster manner, make

entertainment. But marvellous
opportunities were lost of
learning much more.

important scene for the Royal
Shakespeare • Company’s new
production of Edmund Ros-
tand’s swashbuckling French
dassic Cyrano de Bergerac.
The play includes a series of
sword fights and in this scene
Cyrano punctuates the duel by
composing a sonnet, each line
corresponding with a thrust,
demanding great virtuosity from
foe actors aid ingenuity from
foe fight director.
McKay, one of foe most
experienced fight directors in
the country, treats his fights as

There is no room for error in

duellists aim for die vulnerable

“Von. can’t thmk of a successful
form ufa”, says Hya SaDdnd,
executive producer of , Superman
III. “because that leads to
complacency. And complacency
is more dangerous to. Superman
than Kryptonite!” Kryptonite,
for the uninitiated, is the extra-
terrestrial substance that ruins
the comic-strip hero's ability to
fly at top speed, use his eyes as
an acetylene torch and rescue
damsels.
Yet die very existence of a
third Superman' adventure star-
ring Christopher Reeve proves
that a successful formula exists;
Ilya SaDdnd and his buccaneer
father Alexander would scarcely
suffer the cost, squabbles and
lawsuits of their multi-million
dollar extravaganzas if the
audience response was doubtful.
Superman III. made at Pine-
wood for $42m, thus shares
most of the ingredients that
helped its predecessors at the
box office. An arch-villain,
played by Robert Vaughn, plots
the world's destruction; there is
a teasing kind oTlove interest
(provided by Annette O'Toole);
Critics’ choice
catastrophes and special effects
engulf the screen.
Burt the Sai kinds* formula is
far from, rigid; all three adven-
tures juggle ingredients and
shift emphases. Richard Lester,
director of Superman II and III.
claims no special affinit y with
comic-strip fantasy and prefers
rooting both comedy awH
characters In an identifiable
satin! reality (witness the
Musketeer filmy )
The scriptwriters, Lhma ana
Leslie Newman, give the
formula their own special slant.
They are veterans of aD three
films, though their script for the
first Superman (1978) emerged
with most of its playfal humour
ironed out by a later recruit,
Tom Maxtkiewicz. For Super-
■ man II (1980), the comedy
edged back in; now it almost
dominates the spectacle. Ex-
posed to an ugly green lump of
synthetic Kryptonite, Superman
turns into a malicious hooligan
with a five o’clock shadow. He
straightens the Tower of Pisa
out of spite, wrecks bar supplies
with the flick of a peanut. “If
you’re expecting me to rescue
yon**, he says to a sexy decoy
perched on the Statue of
liberty.' “I don’t do that stuff
any more."
The Salkinds, however, are
continuing with their stuff; only
a startling box-office disaster
will prevent the emergence of
Supernian IV. They also have
two similar epics in the pipeline
to keep audiences happy;
Supergirl and Santa Claus, a
mystery project written by the
Newmans. “It will be very
sentimental, very funny and very
spectacular, and will reach a
very wide audience**, sa>s
Alexander SaUrind. Could this
be another successful formula?

SISTERS: THE BALANCE OF
HAPPINESS
ICA Cinema, The MaD (930 3847)
Margarethe von Trotta's disturbing
account of dashing temperaments,
made in 1979, seems Pke a
preparatory exercise for the later
German Sisters, though the
resonant acting (from Jutta Lamps
especially) easily holds our
attention. The display of talent
makes the melodramatic vacuity of
von Trotta's later Friends and
Husbands (now at the Academy,
London) afl the more disappointing.

Ole Olsen and his stout
partner, Chic Johnson, were a
leading American vaudeville act
with a furious style of surrealist
humour who seemed doomed
to run a poor second in Ihe
cinema to the Marx Brothers.
While Monkey Business,
Duck Soup and .-1 Sight at the
Opera have claimed a perma-
nent place in the repertoire of
classic film comedy, the Olsen-
Johnson films of the same
period are seldom revived and
largely forgotten. Bui there is
one notable exception.
During 1938 the two comics
were playing in a revue in
Philadelphia which so im-
pressed a Broadway impresario.
Lee Shubert, that he persuaded
them to expand it and bring it
to New York. The critics were
cool but audiences ecstatic, and
the show ran for more than
1.1 00 performances.
The success of the show
persuaded Universal to film it.
The declared intention was to
stick as closely as possible to the
substance and spirit of the
original and eschew those
concessions which Hollywood
so often demanded, such as
extra star names, glamorous
locations and a romantic sub-
plot.
In the event, compromises
were made, but the film
triumphantly overcame them
and Hdlrapoppin', which was
released in 1941 (by which time
the Marx Brothers best work
was done) 'was acd aimed even
by socially committed journals
like the New Statesman.
In the 40-odd years since
then, the reputation of Hellza-
poppin' has, if anything, grown,
though it is not revived nearly

F amily Life
Cooling tantrums and
tears before bedtime
“Go to bed!" - like “Clean your
teeth”, “Wash your neck”,
•’Don’t spend it all at onoc” and
“Don’t talk to strangers" - is an
order that is forever on the tip
of the parental torigue. In this
weather it is particularly diffi-
cult to enforce as the humidity
rises with the temperature and
the murmur of adult voices and
other household noises (yours
These, however, are extra-
ordinary times demanding
extraordinary measures. Tn

to get their offspring to bed and
to sleep at a reasonable time.
and your neighbours) float

through open bedroom win-
dows to disturb and tantalize.
In the past week, many a call
from hot little throats of
-Mummy. I can’t sleep/ Fm too
hot/I’m thirsty” has reached me
in the back garden.
There isn’t too much you can
do about a temperature of 82 D F
in your child’s bedroom, but if
you haven’t already thought of
them, here are a few sugges-
tions: leave the curtains or
blinds closed all day, especially
if the room faces south or west;
buy or borrow an electric or
mechanical fan; use only cotton
or cotton-based sheets; leave ail
doors in the house ajar, if not
wide open, to try to encourage
even the whisper of a draught.
A colleague gave me a couple .
.more excellent tips: if a small
child is really hot and sticky, vy
sponging him with tepid water
(not cold), and use a plant spray
to spray the room with cold
water, which immediately re-
duces the temperature by at
least 5”. And it, at dawn, you
rise with the dew and find the
temperature has dropped con-
siderably, cover the child with a
single sheet to ensure that he
doesn’t shiver himself awake.
The theory that if they don’t get
sle«
enough sleep their growth will
be stunted and their brain
power diminished dies hard -
and, as with most old wives'
tales, there is a grain of truth in
it. We all need recuperative
sleep to regenerate tissue and
give our troubled psyches a rest
and an insufficiency will
eventually mean .we are less
efficient than we should be and
a great deal more irritable,
whether we are four or 40.
No parent likes to think of his
child slumped over a desk,
unable to keep up with the
teacher or class - and at
examination time, parents are
even more nervous that a tired
child will foil to do his best
Nevertheless, as research has
recently proved, when we really
need to sleep, we will, no matter
what obstacles are put in our
way - the very young and the
very old are classic examples of
this syndrome nodding off
regardless of circumstance or
surroundings.
Contrary to what many
parents believe, for all but the
medically diagnosed hyperac-
tive child, sleep habits can be
effectively changed by relatively
simple techniques. If your child,
for example, persistently fails to

The shock elimination of the

quarter-finals with a decidedly
lop-sided appearance.
In the top half. Robson

expected, occurred in the other
two matches. Dixon (Silver-

-contained three players who
had suffered a narrow defeat at
the hands of the young British
team in the Continentai Life

revenge. They faced O'Reilly

Duckworth and Price, two of
the victors in that encounter).
Although the old guard had
their revenge, they were out-bid
on this hand.

Chess
Soviet team sweeps the board
Of all the fine events which
FIDE (the World Chess Feder-
ation) runs, none seems to me
to oner such attractive play as
the finals of the European Team
Championship. Played on 10
boards a team among the eight
best chess nations of Europe,
this event provides a wealth of
interesting games. I was fortu-
nate enough to act as chief
arbiter at the first finals at
Vienna and Baden-b'&Wien in
1957 and have vivid memories
of the fascinatin g games played
there, and in particular of the
quicksilver play of the- young
Mikhail TaL
Tal was not in the Soviet
team this year, nor was his
successor in the matter of
providing such brilliant chess,
the 20-year-okl genius Cany
Kasparov, who was preparing
for his semi-final match against
Viktor Korchnoi in the candi-
dates’ matches , for the world
championship.
It says much for the strength
in depth of Soviet dress that the
USSR team won the event, held
at Plovdiv in Bulgaria from
June 23 to July 3, without losing
a . match and by a margin of S
points over then: nearest rivals,
Yugoslavia.- Apart from two
narrow victories by 4 , #>3 I £ over
Hungary and England, they
crushed the opposition, beating
the bottom team, West
Germany, - by 7-1. The
Yugoslavs were the only team
to draw with them.

England toiled to repeal their

they came third. But it augurs
well that their excellent score
was largely due to their younger

Lonrho, GKN and the British
Steel Corporation have agreed
the first phase of a - p lan to
rationalize Britain's troubled
engineering steels industry.
Under the terms of the deal
announced yesterday Hadfields,
a Lonrho subsidiary which
employs 750 people in Shef-
field. is likely to dose as soon as
redundancy terms can be agreed
with unions.
A joint statement by the three
companies involved in the plan
to wipe out nearly one third of
the 2.6 million tonnes of
capacity in the industry, indi-
cated that further closures are
possible; at four BSC plants in
the Sheffield area and the GKN
Brymbo works near Wrexham.
Stage one of the rationaliza-
tion plan involves the creation
of a new holding
•- /" oi a new holding company,
f INTEREST RATES J Hadfields Holdings, which Wtil
S be used as the vehicle to
By Andrew Cornelias
eliminate overcapacity within
the industry..
Lonrho has a 25 per. cent
Stake in the company, while
GKN and the BSC will each
take a 37.S per cent bolding.
However. Lonrho is expected to
pull out of the industry
completely once Hadfields is
dosed, leaving GKN and the
BSC to continue discussions
over rationalization of the
remaining capacity in the
industry.
Eventually Hadfields Hold-
ings will be subsumed into a.
new private sector holding
company, called. British Engin-
eering Steels, which will be
jointly owned by the BSC and
GKN.
. In the meantime, Lonrho will
be paid between £8m and £l0m
compensation from GKN and
BSC for closing the Hadfields
plant
None of the parties to
yesterday's agreement was able
to say when the next stage of
discussions on the fiiture of the
industry wfl! be completed,
although there was little opti-
mism about a final settlement
being reached before Novemb-
er.
Talks on . rationalization
began two years ago, but were
abandoned when market pros-
pects improved. Negotiations
were renewed earlier this year
after a further collapse in
demand for steel products.
The private sector has taken
the brunt of cuts in the industry
so far. Du port dosed its
engineering steels plant in South
Wales in 1981. while Hadfields
has cut its workforce from 5.200
to 750 since 1977. A further
1.000 jobs have gone at CRN's
Brymbo plant, whicb employs
1300.

to. show vigorous growth and
moderate inflation Iasi month,
in a performance bailed as “a
winning combination” by
White House officials.
Mr Larry Speaker the princi-
White House spokesman,
issued a statement on behalf of
President Reagan saying that
the June figures released yester- '
day show that the recovery
continues on a broad front.
“Production is up and inflation
remmains under control”, Mr
S peakes said. -
The June figures revealed.
| however, that wholesale prices,
measured by the US producer
; price index, rose by 0.5 per cent
last month, the largest increase
since November, largely be-
cause of a big increase in energy
costs.
Last month's results com-
pared with an increase of 0.3
per cent m MayJ Overall,
wholesale prices were 1.8 per
cent higher than in June 1982.
a natural reflection of strong
growth in the second quarter.
if the June rate of gain
continued for the . next 12
months. US wholesale prices
would be per cent higher
next year. So far. for the first six
months of die year inflation at
the wholesale level had . been
declining at an annual rate of 1
percent. .
The big increases last month
were in energy prices. Prices for
petrol jumped 5.1 per cent,
while heating oil rose by 5.3 per
cent and natural gas prices
inched up 0.2 per cent, the US
Labour Department said.
During the' same period,
industrial output rose by 1. 1 per
cent, equalling gains during
May and continuing the growth
which has been apparent -for
several months.
Industrial output compared
with the same month a year ago
was 5.2 per cent higher.
‘ :<
Company ratings are gener-
ally calculated on the basts of a
lull 52 per cent tax rate. But
few companies have paid that
rate for years. Recalculations
using actual rates give rather
more favourable prtoe/eamings
ratios. Why not assess com-
panies on mat basis?
Associated Newspapers,
publishers of the Daily Mail,
first-half pretax profits rose
from £5.38m to £6.99m. Full
year profits coufd be £14 to
£15m and should rise further if

reduced. But the Reuters stake

Minister hints at stricter rules
Oilmen pressed over research
The Government is intensify-
ing its efforts to make oil
companies, operating in the
North Sea devote more, time
and effort to promoting British
research and development into
oil and gas technology.
The eighth round of North
Sea licensing earlier this year
included for the first tune a
condition that companies
should show a commitment to
technological research. This is
seen as critical if the North tica
is to continue to provide lasti n g
economic and " employment
benefits once oil production
itself starts to decline in the
1990s. _ _
Officials from the Depart-
ment of Energy have now begun
to hold talks with companies
which gained licences about
hbw they plan to act on the new
criterion. Three or four large
major companies baye been
involved in the discussions, and
others will come in later. .
Mr Alick B uch a n an -Smith.
the Minister of State respon-
sible for the North Sea, says that
Buchanan-Smith: more
interventionist
the Government has -given a -
high , priori™ to «n iy nred
research and development
effort. •
“I am encouraged by the way
some companies have respond-
ed. although others have not
done so much", he said in an
interview, with The Times. He
hinted .that if the companies
failed to respond satisfactorily,
the Government could impose
more stringent compulsory R
and D criteria in fiiture
licensing rounds.
The rationale behind the new
moves is the belief that unless
Britain develops its own capa-
bility in. for example, under-
water production and control
systems, it will fail to secure any
longer-term economic benefits
from its North Sea windfall
The new partnership at the
Department of Energy between
Mr Peter Walker, the Energy
Secretary, and Mr' Buchanan-
Smith has already shown, with
its criticism of BFs recent
petrol flpee increases, that it is
adopt a more
-interventionist line than its
predecessor
Mr Buchanan-Smith said that
the Government is studying
pre liminar y development plans
for six new oil and four new gas
fields in the North Sea. Most
could be approved this year.
Inflation at 3.7pc
but set to rise
By Frances Williams, Economics Correspondent
Prices rose by only 0.2 per cent
last month to leave the yearly
rate of inflation unchanged
from May at 3.7 per cent, the
lowest for more than 1 5 years.
- But inflation is now set to rise
for the rest of the year, to
between 5 and 6 per cent
according to official forecasts.
In the second half of last year
prices rose by less than 1 per
cent, helped by a sharp drop in
seasonal food prices and lower
mortgage rales.
Circumstances this year are
not so favourable, making it
inevitable that the inflation rate
on a 12 monthly basis will go
UP- .
Prices in July will be boosted
by the 1% per cent jump in the
mortgage rate, which will add
0.4 per cent to the retail price
index, and by higher petrol
costs, which could add a further
0.1 percent.
This is likely to push up the
inflation rate to more than 4 per
cent when the July figures are
published next month.
Mr Norman Tebbit, the
Employment Secretory, said
yesterday that, because prices
stood still between July and
September 1982, the modest
increases expected in the same
months this year were bound to
lead to an inflation rate of about
5 per cent by the end of
September.
But: “This will not herald a
resurgence of underlying
inflationary pressure." he said.
“By the last quarter of this year
the pace should have slackened
again and the annual rate could
still be below the 6 per cent
level."
The Government's tax and
prices index - which measures
how much earnings must rise to
maintain living standards - rose
by only 3.1 per cent in the 12
months to June, the smallest
increase since October. 1978.
and less than half the actual rise
in average earnings over the
past year.
The 0.2 per cent rise in prices in
June, caused mainly by higher
costs of food, cars and beer
offset to some extent by lower
fares on London Transport, left
the retain prices index standing
at 334.7 (Jan 1974=100). The
increase in May was 0.4 per
cent.
# The Government no longer
expects Britain to run a surplus
on the current account of the
balance of payments this year,
according to financial sources
contacted by Reuters.
Erasing the mark
of the tender
Tender issues have at-
tracted much criticism of
late. Perhaps it is inevitable
that reaction would set in
against so many tender
offers, and certainly the
mark of BritoiL like that of
Cun. cannot easily he
erased. But there is a good
case for saying that sales by
tender should be continued.
A powerful reason for the
rise of the tender offer was
the celebrated fixed-price
disaster of Amersham.
That raised the tricky
question of what constitutes
a just price.
One definition must be:
not a price which gives the
stags a field day. If the
purpose is to encourage
long-term genuine invest-
ment in a new company,
s tagging is undesirable.
By contrast, a well-jud-
ged tendor offer allows a
price to be struck that fairly
takes into account the
conflicting interest of the
company, which wanks the
highest price, the investors,
who want a market, and the
underwriters who do not
want to be left with bundles
of stock.
It is true that one such
tender - Britoil - fulfilled
none of these criteria, but
that should not obscure the
fact that other issues - for
instance. Adam Leisure.
J uliana's Holdings - traded
on Che first day within a
respectable distance of
their striking price.
If other " tender issues
have suffered, it is partly
because the market as a
whole has fallen.
That highlights the point
that tenders are perhaps
best launched on a rising
market. Investors are then
assured of a price increase
within a reasonable period.
Fixed-price issues are
best suited to a stagnant
market or to stocks which
can be priced by compari-
son with others. The forth-
coming Lazard sale of the
Trustee Savings Banks
could be at a fixed price.
I endere have their place
and the record is not as bad
as critics claim.
Club money :
at discount
The Bank of England
has finally come up with
counter proposals to those
requested by the clearing
banks last autumn on the
way the Bank nf England,
carries out ist operations in
the mone> markets.
The changes, which uuj
expected to be announced^
next w cck. represent
modest concession to the
banks and will saic Them
money. Howe'er, the banks’
hate not got everything:
they want by any means.
The present system, in-
troduced nearly two ycarv
ago. has coped remarkably
welt with the big shortages^
which tune occurcd in the
money markets from time
to time. Howctcr. they have
remained resentful about
the amount of secured
money or "club” money
they hau* to hold with the
discount houses.
In essence, the banks*
grumble has been that they,
have been forced to hold
more liquid assets than
necessary and have been 1
subsidizing the discount
houses in the process.
T hree changes are now
being introduced. Club
money is being reduced
from an average of A per
cent to 5 per cent of the-
banks' eligible liabilities,
the daily minimum is being
cm from 4 per cent to 2.5-
per cent and the average
will now be calculated oicr
a longer period.
The banks consider that
club money costs them % to.
1 per cent relative " to
comparable interbank rates
so the proposed change will
help them. However, the
Bank does not appear to
have responded to some of
their other requests, for
instance on the cut-off point
for the Bank's operations in
the money market.
INVEST IN JAPAN’S
SMALLER COMPANIES
BEFORE THEY REALLY GROW
Japan has an unsurpassed
track-record for capitalising on
technology.
In the 1960s and 1970s big was
beautiful — with household name
mass production companies
—like Sony, Honda and Nippon .
Steel — leadiogthe way. .
Now a new era has begun. Microchips
and developments in world markets have
changed.the rules. Smaller, mainly
unknown, entrepreneurial companies are
using technology to improve the quality of
existing products and develop new ones.
Amongst these are the companies that we
believe will forge ahead and become the
household names of tomorrow.
The Second Section o ppo rt u nity
Alert to these changes, the Tokyo Securities
and Exchange Council has made proposals to
the Japanese authorities to make it easier for
such companies to raise capital through a stock
exchange listing, making it easier for investor^
to capitalise on their success.
Most smaller companies are listed on the
Second Section of the Tbkyo Stock Exchange.
Back in January 1968 the indices for the First
and Second Sections started equal at 100. Today
the Second Section has forged to 1204 leaving
the First Section standing at 657.
- We believe that the Second Section has only
begun to show its paces. Hence we Ye now just
launched Japan Smaller Companies Fund, the
first U.K. authorised unit trust to focus on
Japanese smaller companies and in particular
those in the Second Section.
Japan Smaller Companies Fund
The objective of the Fund is to provide long-
term capital growth through investment in
Japanese smaller companies.
The Fund will be invested predominantly in
companies with a market capitalisation under 5ll
billion Yen (approximately £135 million).
The Fund will be actively traded and will be
diversified across a wide range ol sectors such as:
•Mechatronkrs lelectrcaiics applied to

The M&G American Smaller
Companies Bond will invest in
companies which could become
the household names of tomorrow.
The M&G Capital Builder Plan is
designed for investors who wish to
build up capital out of regular
savings and can solve the problem
. of timing their investment
Because it includes life assurance
cover M&G reclaim tax on your
behalf and add itto your payments
(provided that your total life assurance
premiums do not exceed the greater of
£1,500 p.a. or one sixth of your total income).
Your money is invested in the M&G Bond Fund of
your choice from the list in the application form
below You can switch from one Fund to another at
\ any time, subject to a small fee {currently £10).
Anyone aged 18 to 55 can start a plan. The minimum
v net payment is £12 a month and there is no
; maximum. Your plan matures after 20 years, but you
'can cash it in whenever you like after one year's
■ premiums have been paid.
The future value of your plan will depend on your
starting age and the performance of the Fund you
choose. For example, if a man of 35 started a £20 net
a month plan and the unit price grew at an average
annual rate of IQ%, he could expect to receive
£14,440 after 20 years for a total net outlay of

NOTES: The percentages apply to both men and women, and assume
acceptance on normal terms and tax relief at 15% If the rate changes, the
net amount you pay will change accordingly Percentages for intermediate
ages fall between the figures shown and are available on request
£4,800. The unit price reflects the value of the assets
held in the Fund and will fluctuate accordingly.
The plan provides immediate life cover of 15 times your gross
annual premium (he the amount you' pay plus tax relief). Ybur
first two years' premiums buy Capital units; subsequent premiums
buy Accumulation units. The offered prices of both units include a
5% initial charge: Accumulation units carry an annual chaise of
currently and Capital units an additional annual charge ot
4 uv Although you can cash in your plan at any time after you
have paid one year’s premiums you a re recommended not to do so
for at least four years, to avoid a forfeit of tax relief. Accumulation
units are always encashed for their bid value; there is a deduction
from Capital units on early encashment which reduces to nil after
10 years, e.g. you would receive 68% of their value after two years,
increasing by 4% for each subsequent year. Accumulation unit
pnces are reported daily in the Financial Times and Capital unit
pnces are available from M&G on request. You have no personal
liability to tax on capital gams but higher-rate taxpayers are
advised to continue payments for at least ] 0 years, for tax reasons.
Tax payable by the Company on capital gams is reflected in the
price of units. Actual nghts as between policyholders and the
Company will be governed solely by the terms of the policies and a
specimen policy form is available on request.

FAMILY MONEY
Barclaycard
Public humiliation for woman
who overstepped her limit
Theresa Lock (not her real
name) is a tax lawyer, a career
woman whh an excellent
income and better prospects.
Her credit rrating is good; she
has never had any problems
with her bank manager; and the
only previous occasion on
which she had had trouble with
Barclaycard was when the Post
Office it continued to send her
account to the wrong address
despite repealed notification
that it had been changed.
Last week, however, she fell
victim to Bardaycard's new
security crackdown. When she
offered her Bandaycard for
purchases in an Oxford Street
store, the assistant came back
from making the authorization
call and announced that Bar-
claycard had told her to cut up
the card. Before the horrified
gaze of Mrs Lock, and an
interested audience of other
shoppers, she proceeded to do
just thaL
What had gone wrong? Mrs
Lock has just moved home, and
had been spending heavily on
new furniture, carpets and
curtains. “Of course Fd used
my credit card* 1 , she says. “The
shops make such a fuss when
you try to pay by cheque, if it's
for an amount in excess of £50.“
Drastic
Her account balance was
£750 short of her credit limit,
after she made her last monthly
pay men L By the time that
Barclaycard pulled the plug, it
was £250 over.
To overspend to such an
extent was undoubtedly care-
less; but did Barclaycard have
to be so drastic? The company
claims to have tried to warn
Mrs Lock that she was over her
limit but the letter went to her
old address, and has still not
been received.
Did Barclaycard have her
new address? Yes: that is where
the latest statement went But
warning or no warning, Barclay-
card sees no reason to repent
the instructions given - al-
though it does regret the
manner in which they were
carried out.
“The way in which we
respond to such a situation
depends on how long the
account has been outstanding
and how much it is over the
limit”, the company says.
’Once certain parameters’
have been passed, discretion is
removed. But wc would nor-
mally expect the shopkeeper to
carry out our instructions in a
more restrained manner, to take
the customer ot one side. It
shouldn't have been done in
front of a shopful of customers.
But some shopkeepers do get
carried away."
This is no consolation to Mrs
Lock, who does not understand
why Barclaycard thought it
necessary to withdraw the card
in the first place. “If the
shopkeeper hadn't cut the card
up I would have had to do it
myself”, she says. “I'm not
leaving my Barclaycard in the
hands of an unknown shop
assistant If they thought I had
stolen the card. I could under-
stand iL
“On the only other occasion
on which anything like this
happened to me - years ago.
with my Access card - I was
asked to go to the phone. The
person at the other end asked
me a few questions, the sort of
thing that only I would know
the answer to: my maiden
name, that son of things Then
they told .me I was- over njy
limit and I agreed not to use
the card until I had paid off the
extra.
Access does in fact refuse
authorization when a cardhold-
er is over the limit although
there is a small tolerance. “I
didn't' mind the questions at
all”. Mrs Lock says.
'To all in favour of them
checking that cards don't fall
into wrong hands.” But Barclay-
card. it seems, was not worried
about fraud. They made no at-
tempt to check her identity.
Indiscriminate
So it looks as though the
company lakes the view that
cardholders who go over too far
are cardholders who deserve to
be cut up - whatever the
circumstances. For a company
that pioneered the concept of
easy credit in Britain and whose
operations are so highly compu-
terized that the financial habits
and history of a customer are
available at the touch of a
button, this seems an extraordi-
narily; indiscriminate approach.
Mrs Lock has had her
Barclaycard for more than 10
years, and claims she has never
given the company any prob-
lems. That in itself is a reason
for the company to think twice
before taking such - drastic
action.
But she is also relatively
young, professionally qualified,
a high earner, and a high
spender. So is her husband. '
They arc precisely the kind of'
couple that the banks are now-
making enormous efforts* to
attract and retain as customers
- and for whom Barclaycard,
with much panoply, has- re-
cently launched its gold card.
Is the company really pre-
pared to jeopardize so much
business for the doubtful , plea-
sure of rapping Mrs Lock over
the knuckles? If so, it deserves
to have her do in future what
she did at the time: use another
card instead.

It is easy to overlook the cost

even more so when they* are

Up to £40,000 in any one tax
year can be put into BES
investment and tax relief at the
highest income tax rate is
available. The shares must be
held for five years or part or all

Mortgage famine is with us
again. Wotdd-be bomebuyers
are queuing round the block.
But homeowners with plenty of
unrealized profit in their prop-
erty may still find it relatively
easy to remortgage - to pay off
the first loan and provide a cash
sum for a new car or boat, or to
take a holiday, or to fund school
fees.
This is unofficially frowned
on and seems scandalous at a
time of acute mortgage shortage
when many first-time buyers
are being turned away.
There has been much concern
about the “leakage'* of mortgage
money into consumer goods
creating a spending boom. A
significant proportion of last
year’s 50 per cent increases in
mortgage lending is thought to
have found its way into the
shops.
- Early last year, the Bank of
England and the Treasury wrote

to . banks, building societies,
insurance companies and other
financial institutions aski ng
them not to provide mortgage
money for anything other than
homes or improvements. Mort-
gage money was easily available
then.
Now. ihe banks have all but
withdrawn from the lending
market and the building
societies cannot meet demand.
But there still seems to be
money available if you want to
cash in on the equity of your
house and buy consumer goods.
The attractions are enor-
mous. for both borrower and
lender. Paying for goods over 20
or 25 years even at a small
premium to the present 11.25
mortgage rate is a remarkably
good deal for the consumer who
might otherwise have lo get a.
personal loan or .overdraft and
pay anything from 17 to 26 per
ant.
And anyone prepared to take
a modest risk can get tax relief
on the whole lot.
This week- 1 followed up an
advertisement in the national
press:“How you can enjoy the
increase in the value of your
home without having to move
house.” •
It described a typical remort-
gage deal that gave you cash to
spend. Y on were invited to ring
an agency, which turns out lo be
an estate agency and insurance
broker that passes inquiries on
to the Liverpool office of a
national life assurance com-
pany.
1 had three conversations
with the company, posing as an
interested homebuyer. I made it
clear I wanted the money for a
new car, a holiday, or some
other frivolous purchase. 1 was
told I was not really supposed to
do it but people do get away
with it. 1 pretended to be
ignorant of the rules on
mortgage interest relief.
During the conversations I was
told:
9 “We won’t inquire loo
closely about what you want the
money for.
9 ‘'Most people get tax relief
on the mortgage”, although this
company did not give a
guarantee.-
9 What 1 chose to tell the
taxman was up to rat
The agency manager for this
company describes the group’s
policy on remortgages as a
“perfectly legitimate activity”.
“It is really nothing to do
with is what the money is used
for. It’s not our money. We get
mortgage funds from tanks and
building societies. It’s up to the
lenders, who have different
criteria to find out the purpose
of the loan at a later stage.
“What the borrower does
about mortgage interest relief
doesn't concern us either. It’s
not for us' to sit in judgment.
Remortgaging is a good busi-
ness - the borrower has a track
record and a bigger stake in his
property than a first time buyer
purchasing a Wimpey. And
there is usually a higher rate of
interest-” The company sells the
homeowner an endowment
policy.
The Inland Revenue is well
aware that many remortgage
loans not for home improve-
ment enjoy tax relief
The rule is that you should
get tax relief only on a loan to
buy or improve, a home. Relief
is given at the highest rate Of tax
and the threshold is being raised
shortly • from • £25,000 . to
£30,000. ..
Ultimately, the responsibility
falls on the borrower who has to
fill in a form, Miras 76, stating
the purpose for the loan. But an
Inland Revenue official said:
“We caft to investigate
all these remortgages. We
sometiroesa ask for bills and
other proof that improvements
have been carried out And we
do prosecute.” ’ . * •

Accent is on speed
Not many investment Trusts
cater almost exclusively for the
requirments ■ of- the private
investor, but a new one is to be
Created ibis month, when
Atlantic Assets distributes its 40
per cent stake in Ivory & Sime
Holdings to its 6.000 plus
shareholders by way of a rights
issue.
The company - which bolds
a portfolio of stocks and shares
worth about £5m, and is an
investment trust in all but name
- will obtain a public quotation
and be renamed The Personal
Assets Trust.
According to Mr Maims
Nimmo. who is likely to be
involved in the management,
the fret that the trust is so small
will be an advantage in these
markets, where the speed of the
footwork determines the size of
-the profits.
Industrial Building Allowance
Tax-saving scheme for those
with patience and money
High income earners planning
to take advantage of one of the
very few ways to reduce their
income lax bill substantially
should proceed with some
caution.
All the signs are that the flood
of investors who have taken
advantage of ihc tax con-
cessions in the Government's
i hree-y car-old scheme to boost
investment in small industrial
buildings has now resulted in an
over-crowded market.
Property companies have
been falling over each other to
bring out Industrial Building
Allowance developments to
qualify for the tax allowances in
the 1 980 Finance Act-
Under these provisions, pri-
vate individuals (and com-
panies) are allowed 100 per cent
lax relief on the construction
costs of a workshop - so long as
it is used for an approved
industrial purpose and meets
other criteria laid down by the
Inland Revenue.
,.r Add. to this .benefit a -regular
rental income and a stake in an
appreciating (hopefully) asset
and it is small wonder that the
scheme has proved popular
from the start.
The main drawback of course
is the need for a hefty income
tax bill to make it all worth-
while. The more you pay to the
Inland Revenue the more you
can save through investing in
IBA schemes.
While several developers
have branched out into group
purchase properties for the
lower paid, most agree that a
total income (earned and
investment) of around £20,000
is the bare minimum for the
effective use of the IBA
concessions.
The other snag is the need to
keep the investment for 25
years. Otherwise all the tax
concessions are forfeited.
Recently, however, the bot-
tom end of the small workshop
market has seen a revived
interest by developers after
recent changes in ihc original
1980 Finance Act. At the end of
March, the maximum size
available for an IBA building
was lowered from 2.500 sq ft to
1,250 sq ft.
Property companies have
wasted no lime in bringing out a
new generation of smaller and
cheaper developments to fit the
bill. While this has given the
investor a wider and cheaper
choice of property than ever
before, experts say that the
boom in this market has now
passed and shrewd evaluation is
needed if this kind of venture is
to be a success.
While there arc a number of
cowboys muscling into the
market with highly speculative
schemes offering little or no
security, the investor is well
advised to contact one of the
many local authorities and
specialist firms -dealing in th&
IBA market.
Some of the biggest names
include Colcgravc, Crispin
Taylor and Co and Commercial
and Capital Leasing. All these
London-based companies oper-
ate developments on ibeiV own
behalf or act as agents to some
of the large corporations such as
European Ferries or Pilkington
Glass which have recently
moved into the small industrial
building market.
A pan from specialist ac-
countants’ Edward .Ash, a tax
consultant concentrating on this
field, is also a ready source of
advice. (Telephone 01-352
4877.)
Operating through a well-
known management company
helps to take a lot of the risk out
of the operation as it ensures
that the building is constructed
to an acceptable standard and in
man\ cases the agreement
guarantees a fixed rental return
for up ivi 25 years.
At the same time there is no
security that ihc building will
hold its expected market price
on the eventual sale. And as
well as taking professional
advice, the investor would do
well to use his own judgment
before deciding on a particular
location.
As Mr Ian Read, the property
consultant at Colcgravc. says:
‘■Position is everything”.
Choose a site near all amenities
in a thriving area and the
opportunities are endless, but
opt for a scheme in a depressed
location and although your rent
might be assured realizing jour
capital on eventual sale might
prove close to impossible.
Bui while the stakes ac high,
the possible returns still make
an IBA scheme vers tempting -
Take an individual paying on
average 50 per cent income tax
on a total income of £50.000 - *
wishing to buy a workshop unit ‘ ~ -
at a price of £50.000. With his ;•
100 per cent tax concession he
would immediately be able to
put down £25.000 towards the
investment - -assuming the
original cost just entailed
construction, lor the purpose of
land attracts no tax concessions
under this scheme. A.
To maximize his capital -*
outlay the investor would then
typically arrange a loan on the *
strength of the expected rental ••
returns which in (his case would
realize funding of £23.000. This
would leave him only £2.000 to »
pay out of his own pocket. !'
For further information it is ~
also worth contacting the
Department of Industry which ~
recently published a free bro- .*
churc on workshop investment
entitled "77ie Smni/ Hi >rk*hop\
Scheme". '■

Survey to
check
on trade
barriers
By John Lawless
; The Government is to con-
duct a survey of invisibles
exporters' complaints, about
trade barriers abroad.
The Department of Trade
and Industry has published a
consultative document, saying
<il is its first step" towards
.multilateral negotiations aimed
at liberalizing international
services such as banking,
insurance, shipping, aviation,
consultancy and data trans-
mission.
• The move was initiated by
the United States at last year's
ministerial meeting at the
General .Agreement on Tariffs
and Trade. Several countries
meet for the second time in
Geneva on Thursday to ensure
that their studies follow broadly
similar lines.
f Evidence-taking will finish in
October, for presentation- to
GATT early next year.
The Committee on Invisible
Exports and trade associations
are being sent discussion
papers. But the Department of
Trade and industry is keen to
secure examples of barriers
from any source.
Although the US and Britain
back an agreement, concern is
felt that trade is already
hindered.
A case in point concerns
Lloyd's the body pushing
hardest for regulation. Because
of the way it is constituted, it is
unable to set up branches
abroad, and is involved in a
dispute with West Germany
over restrictive practices.
Questions now likely to arise
may include whether the United
States can go on protecting its
shipping and insurance, where
it often insists that foreign firms
can only handle business that
domestic companies cannot or
do not want to take on.
INVESTORS' NOTEBOOK 0 edited by Michael Prost
Time for a realistic tax rate
Prudent gentlemen in the
City generally err on the
cautious side when estimating
company profits, but there is a
strong case for arguing that the
custom of assuming a full tax
rate when calculating company
earnings is due for burial.
The nominal full corporation
tax rate is 52 per cent.
Everybody knows, however,
thar Jew companies - and only
those with finance directors
who promptly departed - ever
pay that much.
James Cape, the stock-
brokers, have recently esti-
mated that the average rate,
including domestic and over-
seas tax, was 36.2 per cent last
year. In 1980 and 1981 it was
34. 1 per cent and 36.4 per cent
respectively.
This is no academic matter.
One essential tool of stock
market anal ysis, on which
company ratings are made and
investment decisions rest, is the
celebrated price/eamingsa ratio.
Take, for example, Glaxo, a
market favourite at the m omen t’
and a constituent of the FT3Q.
The boffins at James Capel
calculate that its fuUy-taxed p/e
is 33. 5, while the actual tax p/e
is 27.4.
The examples could be
multiplied. Bnt the compelling
argument is that company tax
rates are unlikely to rise by
much.
It is true that the heyday of
stock relief is over, and some
companies suffer from an
advanced corporation tax prob-
lem.
Against that, capital allow-
ances are generous, leasing is
widespread, and there is a huge
backlog of tax offsets to be
utilized.
The Inland Revenue believes
that accumulated tax losses run
to £30bn and are rising at the
rate of £5bn a year. There is
consequently a comfortable
cushion to increasing profits
and foiling stock relief inherent

tax with a 16 per cent rise in
turnover to £ 147.6m.
The im p rovement's source is
hard to gauge as Associated
gives no half-year breakdown
has more than offset lower
contributions from associated
companies and a drop in
investment income.
The associated companies
contributed £1.1 lm, compared
with £1.73 in the same period a
year ago. while investment
income slipped from £ 2 1 m to
£1.48.
Although the improved for-
tunes of The Mail on Sunday
may not be reflected in this
financial year’s results, the
better-than-expected first half;
suggests that full-year profits
could be in the £14m to £15m
range with a more snstantial
improvement the next year as
The Mail on Sunday losses are
reduced.
The stake in Reuters is the
reason why the shares have
been performing well, coming op
from a 1982-83 tow of 136p to
the present level of376p.
One Hunt
receiver
is enough,
court told
The . Official Receiver in
charge of foe compulsory
winding-up of 10 companies in
the commodity futures group
f o r mer ly controlled- by Mr
Keith Hunt, the missing finan-
cier, is strongly resisting a move
by at least 300 investors for
separate representation in the
liquidation. ■
The investors, who initially
_put £5m into Exchange- Securi-
ties& Commodities. (Broom),
Mr' Hunt's master company,
want their own rccei veto /took
after their interests.
But Mr John Sell, Official
Receiver and provisional liqui-
dator of Escom and nmc other
Hunt companies, all- based in
Warwick, said yesterday, in a
sworn statement reaid id the
High Court in London, that
another -receiver would add
substantially to the costs and
expenses of the liquidation and
would interfere with the work of
the special manager.
He said: “The accounts and
-inquiries sought in the inves-
tors* draft writ are already, in
effect, being conducted as a
matter of urgency by the special
manager and his staff.
“The proposed action will
not assist, but rather will
hinder, this task." It was
“unnecessary, premature and
probably not properly consti-
tuted."
An indication of the com-
plexity of the work being carried
out was given by Mr Philip
Heslop, counsel for the Depart-
ment of Trade.
-There was the question of
Escom funds in Switzerland
which could not be repatriated
until Mr Hunt, missing since
April, was made bankrupt.
Then there were over 400
paintingds sent to Christies for
safekeeping, sale and valuation.
Oppenheimer: ) X
298% growth in two years.
to see which
dori'XM Street.
Of the four American funds featured
on the left, three have performed well
over the past two years.
One has performed amazingly well.
It s no coincidence that the one fond
managed on Wall Street has performed
substantially better than the other three
managed in London. Or that foe Wall
Street managed fond is foe Oppenheimer
Target Fund (a US mutual fond).
PROFIT FROM AMERICAN EXPERIENCE
The same skills that have builr foe
Oppenheimer Target Fund are now
available to UK investors for foe first
time. With foe introduction of foe new
Oppenheimer American Growth Trust.
This is a UK authorised unit trusr
and a "wider range” investment under
foe Trustee Investment Act 1961, and is
managed by Oppenheimer Trust Man-
agement Limited in London.
AN EARTOTHE GROUND
The real key to this exanng new
fond lies in foe fact that all day to day
investment decisions are taken in New
York by foe same portfolio team
that manages our Oppenheimer Target
Fund.
in our opinion, there is no real substi-
tute for taking investment decisions on
foe spot, in foe country where foe stocks
are actually being bought and sold.
And in Oppenheimer’s case, no-one
has an ear doser to foe ground, or is in a
better position to take instant advantage
of opportunities as they arise.
AN EYEON GROWTH.
Indeed, foe Oppenheimer American
Growth Trust in foe UK has much in
common with foe Oppenheimer Target
Fund in foe US.
Not only is its portfolio managed by
the same team. If also hasfoesameobjec-
tiveof dramaticcapital growth.
To achieve this objective, there is
.complete freedom to invest in any US
stock with exceptional growth prospects.
Please remember that the price of
units and foe income from them can go
down as well as up.
HOW HIGH WUXVtALLSniEETGC»
If foe American market has been per-
forming well for investors over the past
two years,you may be wondering if it still
has further growth potential.
At Oppenheimer, we firmly believe
that there is room for more growth.
Furthermore, this is an opinion that
many independent experts share.
As a recent headline declared:
"US recovery gaining momentum.”
(The Times 26.6.83)

bounces back
Hongkong (AP-Dow Jones)*
Hongkong stock market appears
to have shaken the political
uncertainly that sent it info a
tailspin Iasi -autumn, as im-
provements on the. political
fftmt sent prices risingyesferday
to their highest level in nearly.
10 months.,-. .
The Hang Seng index rose
12.77 points! in a bunt .of
activity fo finish at 1077.50.
Turnover soared to just
under HKS590ra (£S5m) worth
of shares traded, the biggest day
since April last year, when a
takeover-raid inflated the figure.
Yesterday’s' ^ the highest
close since September' 24. when
Mrs Margaret Thatcher was in
Peking discuussmg the future of
Hongkong.
Britain and China announced
that they would begin talks on
what would happen to the
colony after Britain's lease on
90 per cent of the territory
expires in 1997.
Both sides said that they
shared the goal of preserving
Hongkong'S prosperity and
stability, but the Chinese were
dearly piqued at Mrs Thatch-
er's . insistence . that the nine-
teenth century treaties under
which Britain took the territory
were valid. However. China
said that it would not- compro-
mise on regaining sovereignty
oyer Hongkong.
Fean* in Hongkong over what
China might do caused a huge
outflow of- funds. The stock
marker -*ndV: “value of foe
Hongkong "dollar plummeted.
On September 27, ih* first
trading day after Mrs Thatcher's
Peking visit, the share market
fell '8« points, from which it is
just now recovering.
But then Britain and China
announced three weeks ago that
the talks were about to enter a
new phase, the first official sign
of progress. The news lifted a
burden from the share market,
shown in an immediate rally,
which has been sustained. .
It is a different Hongkong
now. and analysts agree that
local investors have oace again
taken command of trading, after
the 10-month lull. However, as
the buret of activity yesterday
showed, institutions mid over-
seas buyers arc also returning fo
the market.
Anong properties, Cheung
Kong fell 5 cents to HKS9.75.
Sun Hung Kai Properties rose 5
cents to' HK$7.10 ami Hong-
kong Land lost S cents . io
H KS4.20. Hutchison was un-
changed at HK5I5.D0 and
Jar dines rose 10 cents to
HK$15. Swire “Pacific “A"
shares gained 20 cents io
HKS 16.40.
Oil programme agreed
Dome Petroleum. Dome
Canada and Home Oil yester-
day announced an agreement of
a big exploration and develop-
ment programme over the next
three years.
An estimated Can$1.47bn
(£774m) will be spent by Dome
Ganada and Home in western
Canada and in the Beaufort Sea
region, on Dome Petroleum oil
and gas lands.
Home is the natural resources
arm of Hiram Walker Resourc-
es.
. The Dome exploratory lands
agreement (Dela) .between
Dome Petroleum and Dome
Canada has been amended,
subject to final government
approval, to provide for its
extension to July. 1986, and its
scope has been expanded to
allow for delineation drilling on
semi-proven lands.
The programme involves
nearly 22 million of Dome
Petroleum's 27.5 million gross
acres of working interest lands
in the western sedimentary
basin, mainly in Alberta.
COMPANY NEWS IN BRIEF
• Agreed often Terms have been
agreed for Maurice James indus-
tries to make a recommended all-
share offer for the’ Roche. Service
Group.. . • ' -
On toe basis of a middle market
quotation at toe dose of business
last Wednesday of 30p for ordinary
shares in James, toe ordinary offer
values Roche's ordinary capital at
about £l.9m - equivalent to about
28p for every Roche ordinary
share. An offer w9 be made for toe
deferred ordinary of Roche which,
having regard to the rights of the
deferred ordinary shares of Roche,
wffl be comparable to toe ordinary
offer.
Terms of toe ordinary offer: for
every' ItXJ' ordinary shares of
Roche, S3 new ordinary shares of
James.
Mr Martyn Meade, toe chair man
of James, said that services
provided by Roche in the fields of

store fitting would complement the
interests of Maurice James, which,
are presently established in waste
disposal co n tract i ng, export pack-
ing, manufacture and installation of
electronic and security control
equipment and in property man-
agement
He concluded: "The acquisition
of Roche represents a further step
in our (ang-tsrm policy to establish
Maurice James industries as a
broadly-based industrial group."

- • Introduction
Target Managed Currency Fund Limited (“the Fund") was incorporated as
. an investment company on 7th July 1983 in Jersey. Channel Islands. The Fund
. .r- offers Investors a convenient and efficient means of Investing In a spread of
deposits, bonds, certificates of deposit and other monetary instruments. The
Manager will invest the assets of the Fund in Sterling and other major currencies
so as to provide investors with a high overaH return in Sterling terms.
Investment Policy
The Fund is denominated in Sterling but win normally have a portfolio
spread between Sterling and the major marketable currencies, in particular US
'Dollars, Deutsche Marks, French Francs, Swiss Francs, Dutch Florins and
Japanese Yen.The Fund may.tiowevecaiso hold investments in other currencies
; if it is considered appropriate.
The Fund may not make an investment in a bank or a company If the Fund's
total investment in that bank orcompany would thereby exceed 10 % of the net
> asset value of the Fund. Furthermore, the Fund may only invest in a bank If it is of
adequate standing or in a company if it qualifies-for a rating of not less than "A"
' by Mcrody'scM' Standardand Poarfc (or js considered by the Directors to be of
. similar credit standing.
The selection of currencies, the amount invested in each currency and the
maturity of investments w(U depend on the Manager's view of the prospects for
the particular currencies, the- rates of return available on investments in each
currency and their marketability from time to time.
Securities held by the Fund win have a relatively short term to maturity,
normally not in excess of 12 months and usually (ess than 6 months, thus
providing the Fund with a fairly high degree of liquidity, although investments
of longer maturities may be made when particularly attractive opportunities
arise.
The Fund may enter Into forward currency transactions, options and
financial futures contracts as a hedge against unusually sharp movements in
exchange end interest rates. The proportion of the Fund's assets covered by
forward currency transactions should not exceed 50% The cost of options and
financial futures contracts will not exceed 20 % of the net asset value of the Fund
Potential investors should be aware that the value of Shares in the Fund
may tall as wed as rise. *
Dividends
it is not the intention of the Directors lo declare dividends. All income wril
be accumulated and reinvested .
Advantages of ttw Fund

following substantial benefits as compared with direct investment In

ment Management Limited is a subsidiary of RfT and Northern pJ.c. and is

I Northern Group also provide investment management services for private
individuals, investment trusts, unit trusts and a life assurance company:
2. Active Management:
The Fund is able to react Immediately to developments in the foreign
exchange and money markets as they occur. Furthermore, the distribution i
of the Funds assets between currencies can be varied to reflect anticipated I
developments in foreign exchange rates and interest rates.
3. Benefits of Size:
The Fund, by virtue of its size, should be able to obtain higher rates
of return and finer exchange rates in individual currencies than would

single investment or on deposit with any single institution, so as to ensure

Even so. ft was a little-known
Yorkshire man. Denis Dumian,
who stole much of the early
limelight with a second-round
66 and a iworound total of 139.
Faldo was again paired with
Ballesteros, and again had the
better of a taut tussle on a
personal level, as the Spaniard
took 71 for the second time.
Unlike the first day, Faldo got
away well with a three at the
first and. with another birdie at
the seventh, was in fine shape.
Alas, he missed the green at the
ninth, dropped another shot at
the tenth, and the doubts began
to grow. . .
But he came back with' a
brilliant run of four successive
birdies from the twelfth, with
superb putting touch. A bunker
at the long fifteenth offered a
threat but he came out to 12 feet
and gave his a putter chance.
The rapture rather ended
there. He played an even more
convincing sand shot at the
sixteenth, this time to 5 feet,
and could hardly believe it
when the putt stayed above
ground. A tee shot into the sand
hills robbed him of the obvious
birdie at the long seventeenth
downhill, and a par four at the
last, a fiendishly difficult hole
from the new lee. was a safe
harbour from the gathering
tension in front of another huge
gallery after a brave pun of l£
feci from yet another bunker.
The attendance. 34.200. .was a
record for the Open.

home he displayed another
essential golfing virtue, the
ability to scramble' when the.
game gets out of kilter. Sand-
wiched between such colourful
characters as Trevino and
Jacklin ahead and such formid-
able characters as Stadler and
Langer behind, he stole their
thunder with a remarkable run

Lee Ttevino decided to laid his
wei^U lo what must sorely be Royal
Birkdate’s finest hour. He needed
only to get on to -the leader board
‘ after the round of 69 to attract the
kind of crowds he cannot have
known for months - not an the
32,000 of those -present, but a good
proportion of them.
He got on to the board by means
of his driver. " which he used 10
times, and his putter. He holed three
pans of. more than 25 feet and a
chip of70 feet at the sixth.
Trevino believes that, he has one
more important championship in
him, and that if he is going to win it
anywhere, it will be at Birkdale
where he does not have to fly the
ball great distances and where be
feds at home.
A dose associate of Jade
Nicklans, by the way.- believes that
his champion has another “major"
in his locker, although there was
little sign yesterday of bu getting
beyond the stage ofkeeptng his head
.above water.
Trevino's pe rfor mance was not
entirely convincing. He cannot
expect another day to hole so many
long putts or to score a birdie at Hie
hardest hole on the coorse. the sixIIl.
He looked med when he had
finished, and although his confi-
dence has been boosted by his
victory in the Canadian PGA
tournament last time out, he has
been out of the limelight for a tong
time before that. Last year he Anted
to finish in the Gist 100; this year,
again because of a bad bade, he was
out of the first 50.
Finally, however, confident as be
is about bis driving, be can hardly
feel the same about his iron play on
which he must largely depend for
his bodies. He mused as food a
chance of one as he will find at
Birkdale by cutting a four-iron to-
ihe thirteenth which was probably
within range of a five iron.
Having reached the turn in 30.
four' undo* par, and started back
-with the- last ofhxs giant putts, the
rest became a holding operation and
a successful one, for the one shot he
dropped to par from just off the
eleventh green he made up at the
downwind seventeenth.
The wind, again at the eleventh,
toughened the inward half. That
hole was tough, too, for spectators,
struggling in their mass up the side
tracks. For- Tony Jacklin was also
there to attract them. These two
Trevino: a piece of cake -
decided to share the applause and.
okl scores settled, chatted together
as they approached most greens.
Apart from Trevino shaving the
hole from 35 feet at the sixteenth,
the pyrotechnics oo the green were
finished. Jacklin's still fine swing
was not reflected in his scoring and
Manuel Piflcro kept reminding us in
his ’modest way what a beautiful
golfer he is. But it was the old

□ The Hague (Reuter) - The
Netherlands has banned the South
African. Ian Palmer, from compet-
ing in the Dutch open golf
champioship next month, according
to a foreign ministry spokesman. In
line with their anti-apartheid policy,
the government have appealed to
Dutch sporting organizations to
avoid contacts with South Africa.
• Total prize money of £310,000, a
record, is on offer in the Open
Championship at Royal Birkdale,
with the leading 40 professionals
receiving four or five figure sums,
ranging from £40,000 to £1,000. A
silver medal is to be presented lo the
leading amateur, providing he
completes 72 boles.
The 71 Hal Sutton added to his
opening 68 was hardly gfinering.
However, the 1983 Tournament
Players 1 champion did so much so
well that he is, to use bis own words,
“ready for take-off”. On an outward
half of 35 against .the par of. 34,
Sutton simply could not get the
birdie putts to drop. Coming home,
he putted rather better but several
times dubbed himself badly in a
wind beginning to swell.
His striking, though, was mostly
superb and he later conceded that
there is no reason why anything
should suddenly go wrong with his
swing. As to those missed chances
on the greens, be felt confident that
his putter was not working against
him - and that his stroke was sound
enough to engender at least one
good steak over the last two rounds.
Sutton made his 71 in the
company of Chi en -Soon Lu and
Peter Oosterfauis. there was. on the
day, a worid of difference in their
play, Lu. a little daredevil who went
with his driver from almost every <
■ tee, was all too often on the wrong
side of the railings around the ^
greens. The crowd delighted in the
recovery shots he played from then-
midst bat, as Sutton said, “be is
. welcome to be femous for those”.
Oosterfauis, who was living all the
time with the prospect of missing
the cut, was similarly inconsistent;
bis wife Anne felt that his mood was

Brave hitting in the closing stages
by James Whiuker. aged 18. playing
only his second championship
match, helped Leicestershire to gain
an exciting victory with five balls to
spare. They had been left to make
23o in 195 minutes. It Was ibeir
fifth win of the season and they
remain handdily placed in the tabic
behind the leading sides.
Wtuiaker, who played as Gower's
replacemenL is Yorkshire-born and
has been scoring consistently the
second team. He came in when
Davison was fifth out with
Leicestershire still needing 73 in 12
overs. Clift was very much the
senior partner until the target had
shrunk to 34 from five overs. Then

RACING: PIGQOTT TO CONTINUE HIS PURPLE PATCH
Gildoran looks gilt-edged
By Michael Phillips; Racing Correspondent
Later Piggott has already ridden
(bur winners daring an afternoon
once this week, at Leicester op
Tuesday, and there arc strong
possibilities he will do it again at
Newbury this afternoon.
The four l envisage carrying the
great jockey to victory are Fleur de
Lyphard (2.0). Trojan Fed (2J0).
Gfldomn (3.0) and Adonijah (330),
With Steve Cautben currently
suspended . and .spending, that
suspension in the United States
where he will be selling a yearling by
Affirmed out of Araaranda at
Kcenehnd on Monday, Barry Hill?
was quid, to snap, up Piggott's offer
to ride Gildoran in ihe Morland
Brewery Trophy which is the most
valuable race on ihe programme.
By that good racehorse but
disappointing sire Rhcingold,
Cfldorti is the first foal out of that
high-daw mare' DuraL who . won
the Chevdey Park Stakes. AyictoTy
for Piggott on her first-born would
not be inappropriate because- the
very mention of Durud will bring
painful memories of the 1977 Oak
flooding bade.
Ridden by Piggott. DurtaJ was the
favourite for that classic bin had to
be withdrawn minutes before the off
after she careered to the start,
maddened by a slipping saddle, and
staked herself badly on a post.
Successive victories at Newmarket
and Bath have shown Gildoran id
be an improving type who also goes -
well on firm ground.
At today's weights. Moon Jester
and Hossam could be the two to test
Gildoran's mettle especially Hos-
sam. who will be meeting Moon
Jester on 51b belief terms than when
they finished second and fifth .
behind Darari iu the King George V ,
Handicap at Royal Ascot. Hossam
has won over today's distance at
Bath, m the meantime.
On Trojan Fen and Adonijah, ■

says: "We’ve had some reM
dandy races, with seldom mow
than a minute in it, and often
only a matter of seconds.
Courageous is fractionally
better in a breeze. Defender in
light airs. Bui l think you would
be. hard pressed to find an edge
among all three next week,
though we would learn more
with four out there.”
Meanwhile. Victory '83*s
dock was working through
Thursday night after eight hours
of sea trials to experiment
further math the mast rigging,
having lost the previous day to
the Royal Sydney Yacht Club
boat Advance with adjustments
which proved to be disadvan-
tageous. But the designer. Ian
Howfett. has arrived back in
Newport after extensive tanfc
tests at Southampton on poss-
ible keel adjustments for thd

Dazari to
reap more
riches for
Stoute
By Michael Seely
The remarkable rags to riches
progress of Michael S toute's former
haodicappers can continue at Ayr
this afternoon. At the Curragh three
weeks ago, the beaten Esher Cup
favourite,' Sbareef Dancer, estab-
lished himself as Europe’s cham-
pion thred-year-old with a decisive
defeat of CairieoB and Teenoso in
the Irish Sweeps Derby. And this
afternoon Dazari can similarly
upgrade himself by beating Hot
Touch and Seymour Hicks in the
lower cla s s, but likely to prove
informative Mecca Bookmakers
Scottish Derby. -
The Aga Khan’s Relkino colt
confirmed the promise he had
shown as a two-year-akl and also in
his - victory ai. Wolverhampton
earlier this season by proving loo
strong for Moon Jester and Tom
Olcker in the King George V Stakes
at Royal Ascot. Stamina and
courage gained the day that
afternoon, and Dazari now has to
prove that- he has the speed to match
his other admirable qualities.
It is good lock for Jeremy Hindley
but unfortunate -for Ihe sponsor s
and the Newmarket executive that
the most serious opposition to
Muscatite has disappeared in the
£1-2,000 Food Brokers' Trophy. ;
Indeed, tha prospect of taking on the .
2000 Guineas third and unlucky in j
nuining Eclipse Stakes second must I
have been a daunting one. Lester
Piggot reported to the trainer
I afterwards that most of Musc&tite’s
| troubles were of his own making so
the Habitat colt is being fitted with
: blinkers as an aid to concentration.
; Give Thanks
to collect
for Bolger
In his relatively short career as a
trainer Jim Bolger has acquired a
justified reparation as an ao-
j compB&hed handler of three-year-
1 old fillies. A typical Bolger fi&y Is
Give Thanks who has woo fire tunes
| from six starts ia 1983 and mil sixrt
a strong favoorlte to become the firat
: Bolger winner of a dassfe in the
1 twenty-first and final running of the
GamneaB-sponsored Irish Oaks at
The CRRTOgh this afternoon.
Gfre Thanks gave ample evidence
of her toughness when in fee space .
of foar day* in the middle of May
she won fe Esal oaks trial at
IJngfield and fee Muatdora Stakes
at Vork. She made another
soccessftil v e nture back to England
when on form jraad fee defeated
Sid Sailing ia the Lancashire Oaks.

won fee Irish 2D00 Guineas and
Sweeps Doty this season, offers fee

Moving a stroke
or two nearer a
selection answer
By Jim R&Dton
The National champion-
ships of Britain this weekend at
Nottingham’s Holme Pierpont
course may provide some
answers to _ selection problems
still hovering just six weeks
before the world champion-
ships. After many disappoint-
ments and disasters in Lucerne
Iasi weekend, a new men’s
heavyweight eight trill be
launched this weekend, and
even before the British cham-
pionships began yesterdat, the
women had been informed that
most will be in the melting pot
next week during trials in an
attempt to strengthen crews.
Experiments are likely to
continue next week with only
Copenhagen left as a. real
testing ground Wore the
world’s best gather in Duis-
burg. Britain already appears
10 have a flagship in the men's
coxed four, stroked by Richard
Budgcn, who finished a dose
second to East Germany last
Saturday. The single sculler.
Beryl Mitchell, continues to
rank among the world's leaders
and the men’s coxless four,
who just missed the Lucerne
final Iasi Saturday, merit closer
examination.
But these two fours last
Sunday in Lucerne combined
to form an eight, finishing fifth,
but wiLh little left in the last
500 metres. Missing from the
eight field were the world
champions. New Zealand, the
Soviet Union, the United
States. Australia and Czechos-
lovakia.
Nevertheless, the two squad
fours combine again on
Sunday in the British cham-
pionships, and will be chal-
lenged by a new eight powered
b> the Kingston coxed four and
other leading small boat
contenders. Another experi-
ment after the national cham-
pionships could be the Kin-
gston coxed four combined
with the coxless four squad,
but there is precious time left.
Perhaps the most competi-
tive event this weekend will be
the men’s coxiess pairs which
include the Henfcy winners.
Tyrian, the Amsterdam victors
and Henley runners-up. Whit-
well and Knight from Notting-
ham, Oxford University’s past
and present presidents. Jones
and Youage, and not forgetting
the Lea pair. Scrivener and
Hassan, who finished fifth in
Lucerne last Saturday.
There will be some scores to
settle, in this race, and the
carrot of selection for the world
championships will lift the
adrenalin even more.
Single sculler Steve Red-
grave, last Sunday in Lucerne
at least, won the singly sculle
final with conviction. He needs
for more experience in the
single to fra p i" against world
stars such ' as Koibe, (West
Germany). Reicbe or Mund
(East Germany), and Olympic
champion. Karppinen (Fin-
land I. They, of course, do not
hold British passports, but Tim
Crooks does, and gave Red-
grave an interesting tussle in
Henley’s Diamond Sculls two
weeks ago. Redgrave must be
programmed to dismiss the
vereran Crooks with an
emphatic win on Sunday or
even his selection could be
under question.
The double sculls partner-
ship of Bailiieu and Spencer-
Jones are destined to stand on
the victory stage on Sunday,
but they must have come down
to earth last weekend, foiling to
qualify iu the heat both days in
Lucerne despite victories in
Amsterdam and the Royal
Regatta.

Leeds sign Wayfarers
forward progress
By a Staff Reporter
George McCluskey, the
GbMc forward, has signed for
Leeds United, but the two
dubs Rave still not agreed on
the transfer fee. Celtic value
McOuskey at £175.000. but
Leeds are only prepared to pay
£100.000. McCIuskey. whose
fee will now be decided by an
independent tribunal, will play
his first game for Leeds in a
proseason friendly with Fal-
kirk on August 6.
• The Coventry City man-
ager. Bobby Gould, has opened
negotiations with Aston Villa
in an attempt to sign their
goalkeeper Jimmy Rimracr.
Gould has already begun talks
with the Everton midfield
player Alan A inscow.
0 Rat Holland, the 32-year-
old West Ham midfielder, has
joined Orient of the third
division, as player-coach.
Orient have also signed Kevin
Hales from Chelsea on a free
transfer.
0 Bournemouth have agreed
By John NichoUs
When lan Proctor designed the
1 6-foot Wayforer 25 years ago,
he had little idea that ft would
one day be a popular inter-
national racing class. The
original intention was that it
should replace the sturdy pre-
war dinghy craft that lay to
moorings in coastal creeks and
harbours, and were then
nearing the end of their useful
life. Coincidentally, a dub in
north Devon was looking for
just such a boat; Proctor and
his building associates. Small
Craft, offered them the Way-
farer and the new ria$y was
bom.
She was an immediate
success at about £300, and
early boats were indeed kept on
moorings. A few. mainly used
by sailing schools, still are, but
most of the new ones, now
costing around £2,000, are kept
ashore.
The per f ect all-round dinghy
does not exist and probably
never will - the conflicting
demands of racing, cruising.

Telecom sale offers
phone users shares
By BilJ Johnstone, Electronics Correspondent
Th Government is expected
to announce on Monday its
intention to make a special
issue of bonds or shares in
British Telecom available to
telephone subscribers and em-
ployees of the corporation.
The announcement, by Mr
Cecil Parkinson, Secretary of
State for Trade and Industry,
will be made during a second
reading of the new Telecom-
munications Bill in the Com-
mons. The measures are just
two of a package put together by
the Department of Trade and
Industry, designed to ensure the
successful sale of SI per cent of
British Telecom by the end of
next year.
The task feeing the Govern-
ment is monumental. The sale
of 51 per cent of British
Telecom is expected to raise
between £3. 000m and £5,000m.
it is an exercise which City
analysts have suggested is
impossible on one tranche.
The subscriber shares and
those assigned to employees are
means of spreading the load
while making the sale almost
irrevocable. It is the Labour
Party policy to fight the
privatization and to reverse it, if
possible, when it returns to
power.
The government is also
exploring the possibility of
launching part of the share
flotation in stock exchanges
overseas, including Europe and
the United States.
The funding of the moderni-
zation programme of British
Telecom has for the past three
years been difficult for the
Government, which had in-
sisted that the corporation be
subject to strict Treasury con-
trols of public sector borrowing
requirements.
Live TV

matches
Continued from page 1
Saturday night spot - which
Independent Television has
found not to be- a ratings puller
- and commercial television
will present its programme on
Sunday afternoons.
Each will show recorded
highlights from two games; the
Independent Television broad-
cast will be a network
programme with regional trans-
missions only when a particu-
larly interesting local game - for
example, Ipswich v Norwich on
Anglia - is scheduled.
Mr Graham Kelly, Football
League secretary, said the
league felt it bad achieved
a significant breakthrough;
regular review meetings are to
be held, probably at three-
month intervals.
He also announced an agree-
ment to screen the Milk Cup
final for the next four years.
New formula heads off
Tory MPs’ pay revolt
Continued from page I
mishandling of the issue by the
Government. The whips were
alleged to have warned new
MPs that their chances of
promotion would be minimal if
they did not toe the 4 per cent
line favoured by Mrs Thatcher.
Because of the reduction in
secretarial allowances, which
are in future to be paid and
scrutinized by the Commons
Fees Office, and the increased
pension contribution, the
reshaped formula will cost the
Government no more than the
extra £6.5m in a full year put on
the original proposals. This year
it will be somewhat less.
The compromise is not
acceptable to most Labour MPs
who were relishing the prospect
of teaming up with Conserva-
tives to try to defeat the
Government.
Mr Jack Dormand, chairman
of the Parliamentary Labour
Party, said last night that he had
no intention of withdrawing his
amendment urging the full
implementation of the rec-
ommendation presented to
Parliament by Lord Plowden's
Top Salaries Review for a 31
per cent rise, taking Mp$
salaries up to £19.000.
He added that the proposed
reduction in secretarial and
research assistance allowance
would be highly unpopular with
the Labour side.
However, without substantial
help from the Tories, which
now seems unlikely, Mr Dor-
maud’s amendment could not
succeed, and Labour MPs could
be faced with the choice of
having to back Mr du Cam's
formula or the orignal pro-
posals.
The compromise reached
yesterday does not affect the
pay of ministers, who are stfll to
receive rises averaging about 4
per cent.

Chad rebels
reel under
attack
N'Djamena, Chad (AP)- The
if Fresic
government forces of President
Hissene Habit, equipped with
newly-arrived French armoured
vehicles, advanced northwards
yesterday in pursuit of Libyan-
backed rebel forces reding
under a week of setbacks,
Chadian officials reported.
M Idriss Ebby, commander
of the government forces, said
that his men were advancing
towards the key oasis of Faya
l^ugeau. 500 miles northeast of
N'Djamena, following their
recapture of the outpost of Oum
ChaJouba. 200 miles further
south.
The rebels, led by former
President Goukotini Oueddei,
seized Faya Largeau at the start
of a lightning oflencive .three
weeks ago during which they
briefly captured Abeche, the
largest city in Chade’s northern
desert.
The southern African
drought, which experts de-
scribe as possibly the worst
• this century, is at last begin-
ning to touch the pampered
lives of the denizens of the
northern suburbs of Johannes-
burg, which boast one of the
highest standards of living to
be found anywhere in the
world.
In the countryside, maize
■crops have withered (South
Africa, normally an exporter
of grain, may have to import
more than two milli on tons
this year). Canle have been
slaughtered and thousands of
.white farmers face ruin.
Starvation stalks the already
impoverished tribal “home-
lands" - the 14 per cent of the
laftd set aside for blacks.
- ■ To affluent white city-dwel-
lers, who seldom venture into
the poorer rural areas, the
drought has up to now been
little more than a story they
have read about over breakfast
in - their newspapers. This
week, r however, shrieking
headlines proclaimed the
imposition -of “tough new
water restrictions” on house-
holders throughout the Witwa-
tersrand area.
“Tough”, it must be admit-
ted, turns out to be a
somewhat relative term. But
urban lifestyles are at last
being required to make some
adjustment to the reality of the
water penury. The Govern-
ment's aim is to reduce
consumption by 20 per cent by
the end of September.
The watering of private
gardens will henceforth be
allowed only for one hour a
week, between 2pm and 3pm
on either Saturday or Sunday.
. Hand-held hosepipes and
micro-mist- or drip irrigation
systems are the only methods
of watering permitted. This
roles out the more prodigal
types of sprinkler. There is,
however, no restriction on the
use of watering-cans or
buckets.
Swimming pools, of which
there are probably more to the
square mile in northern
Johannesburg than abywhere
outside California, may be
lopped up to replace loss
through evaporation, but
cannot be emptied for repair
and refilled without per-
mission from the authorities.
Playing fields. sports
grounds, bowling greens and
golf course greens can be
watered between 10.30am and
noon on Mondays and Thur-
sdays. Race courses can be
watered on any two days of
the week, but must reduce
their total water consumption
by 30 per cent of 1 982 figures.
Most parts of South Africa
get the bulk of their rainfall in
violent early-evening thunder-
storms during the summer
months, from October to
March. Few rivers arc perennial
and much reliance is placed on
dams for storing water. Because
of the failure of last summer's
rains, dam levels are now
unprecedentedly low.
Even in the best of years,
there arc long periods of
drought. But the present water
shortage, rite effect of two
successive years of poor rains, is
exceptionally severe. Fortu-
nately, large arras of South
Africa are underlain by water-
bearing rock strata, -and half the
country’s farms use borehole
water for domestic use and
watering stock. However, many
wells and boreholes have run
dry.
Lack of water could be a
serious constraint on the
industrial development of
South Africa. Last month,
possibly galvanized by the
drought. South Africa and tiny
Lesotho agreed, despite their
present frigid political re-
lations, to conduct a much-
postponed two-year joint
study of an ambitious water-
sharing scheme.
The idea is to divert water
from the upper Orange River,
which rises in Lesotho, a
mountainous enclave sur-
rounded by South Africa, to
South. Africa’s -Vaal River
system. South Africa would
pay a royalty for the water,
and the scheme would also
generate enough hydro-electric
power to meet Lesotho's
energy needs.
