WEST INDIES OUTLOOK
\VHEN Colin Wills opens a Window on the Caribbean in a BBC feature to be heard from 2YA at 9.30 a.m. on Sunday, January 17, he will show much more than a pleasant and picturesque archipelago. When he travelled extensively in the West Indian islands and talked with all kinds of people he
found that while the inhabitants of each island have an intense local patriotism they also have traits in common which distinguish the West Indians as a whole from anyone else. "The really important thing," he says, "is that the West Indies in our day have come to contain not merely people but a people, and one which is certain to play an important part in future affairs of the Commonwealth and of the community of nations. The West Indies, closely linked with Britain and thus to the Old World, are also part of the New World, and they can make the islands and the mainland territories of British Guiana and British Honduras a bridge over the \Atlantic."
