For generations visitors had been shown the left Bank site As the Battlefield where Han Nibal lost Only 6,000 men while annihilating 70,000 romans of the armies of Paulus and v e r r o in the second punic War. Most of the military expert still insist that that was where the Battle was fought. But recently a group of historians be Gan pressing the right ban theory after a huge ancient Bur Ial ground was found on the right Side of the Fanto. The historians asked the ministry of education in charge of historic Sites to Rule that these were the Graves of the Soldier Sand that this was the Battle ground. The military men said no contending that this burial site was the cemetery of an Earl italian town and the remains there were those of christians of the Middle Ages and not sol Diers of Carthage and government commission that studied the two argument failed to come up with a decision. This is where the americans come in. A Box containing Bones fro the right Bank will be sent soon to the United states for radio Active Carbon tests. From these the scientists willbe Able to say whether the Bones Date Only to the Middle Ages or to the punic wars. That is expected to Settle the argument. Whichever Way it comes out a Granite column on a Bluff overlooking both sides of theofants carries its impartial Tri Bute.

A to revive Economy wilson9s Tash is ill same by Arthur l. Gashon London a Harold Wil son monday completed his third year As prime minister but with few Basic British prob lems settled. The Silver tongued statesman who promised to Lead a new Britain into a second Indus trial revolution insists that the nation is moving Back into sol Vency. Against seemingly hopeless Odds his socialist government with International help has pre served the value of the Pound at $2.80. Spending on social serv ices has been increased. An american takeover of the key computer Industry has been averted. New industries Are be ginning to Rise in the country s depressed areas. Living Cost seem to be More stable. Out put per Man hour is up. Yet All this has been achieve Dat great Cost. The Specter of mass unemployment is stalking the fac tories and farms of the welfare state with nearly 600,000 work ers out of a Job and Winter ahead. Fond dreams for expanding the Economy have been Frozen pending restored sol Vency. Nevertheless no one not even Edward Heath who leads the opposition conservatives looks like a Good bet to oust Wilson in the foreseeable future. Heath s followers will meet i their annual convention in Brighton wednesday still Hunt ing for a program of modern conservatism that will make them a credible alternative government. Top priority in the International Field is Wilson s attempt to take the nation into the european common Market where he thinks Britain can provide leadership More constructive than that offered by French president Charles de Gaulle. But de Gaulle recognizing the Challenge is resisting the Brit ish bid. Another headache for Wilson once a Leader of labor s left Wing has been the need to accept american policy in Viet Nam. He has endured fierce at tacks from some of his follow ers for this. But he has realized it would do Little Good and probably much harm if he were to condemn president Johnson s Posi Tion outright. Johnson would pay Little attention to any such denunciation. British american relations would suffer too. Wilson swept into Power on promises of Gritty purposeful government in 100 Days of dynamic action. It soon became Clear that he was trapped in Strait jacket of overspending left by his conservative predecessors with the nation s overseas Trade deficit exceeding $2 Bil lion yearly. In the years immediately ahead it s do or die for Wilson in his Campaign to get Britain slipping Economy moving for Ward so that the nation can thrive again. Industries Maddox said at news conference that. Preceded the publication. But they will not Rise to the level of Whites either in income or he said the study projects arise in negro employment in the South to 3.6 million by 1975 fro the present 3.35 million even though negro employment Fel Between 1950-60. Obviously the increase inn e g i o employment will Cut negro migration from the South he said. Negro migration between1940 and 1960 Cut the proportion of the negro population living in the South from about 70 to 52 per cent. Henderson said he believe the South has a greater Opportunity to become a genuine Multi racial democracy than the North if it will take advantage of these he said this was because the South emerging from an Agri cultural society has not yet developed such negro slum areas As Harlem Watts and sout Chicago. In the Book the author concluded we have reached generally optimistic conclusions about the future of the South that South Ern incomes will Rise As the balance in the Industry mix continues to shift from Low wage to High wage industries that theorising new industries will at tract other industries As buyers or suppliers of manufactured goods that the Quality of the la Bor Force will continue to improve and that with National full employment Southern employment is Likely to Rise Muchmore rapidly Between 1960 and 1975 than in the 1950s." the Book Points out that in or Der for the South simply to keep up with the rest of the nation it must expand at a rapid rate. Inper capita income for instance the South s share was Only 75.5per cent of that for the nation As a whole in 1960. The South s share of the nation s Gross investment grew from 17.3 per cent in 1947 to 21.5per cent in 1962. A major obstacle to the South a economic development is its inadequate educational system particularly for negroes said the report. The employment Outlook facing the Southern negro is a discouraging one so Long As he is under educated lacks Industrial experience and in addition i subjected to racial Dis criminal authors Are optimistic about the South s future but said a great continuing Effort is needed to raise the educational level and ease racial discrimination.
