The colony is the size of Massa-| chusetts and has a population of Tv,000, a third living in this steam- ling capital. The city’s . population is largely Negro, but outside Belize it is mostly Indian mixed with Spanish. For 150 years the country lived on lumbering, but now the timber is giving out. Even the lumbering work is seasonal, covering a six months of the year. Wage scales in genéral are low and liv- ing conditions poor. The economic and social struc- ture is a capsule of trouble but the Jesuit priests from North America who make up most of the colony's clergy see little or no evidence of Communist influence. A campaign for independence is being carried on by the People’s so noisy and demands so many re-| forms that some of the elements! loyal to Britain accuse it of coming junder Communist influence. But! they find it difficult to back up the charge. The PUP hopes to make itself felt next March i. the colony’s first, general elections under a new con-/ stitution. Even if it wins as many seats in the Legislative Council. as it expects, the real authority will remain under Gov. Patrick M. Renison, appointed by the Queen. No one expects a situation to arise here like that which brought sus- pension of the constitution in Brit- ish Guiana, South American out- post where the Communist line bas been strong.
