tive Committee of the Grenada Representative Government As sociation for the consideration of inatters, We had an interesting discussion with a friend yesterday over the proposal adopted in other islands which closes the door of elected membersbip of Council against criminals and priest and ministers, as he pus it.

Everything cannot be done at time; some things must wait, and one of these thing seems to us to be authority for clerios to stand as candidates.
We predict an electoral break down in a short while if the rule is persisted in that candidates for election must have properly qualitication in the electoral district concerned.
