HE Premier, the Hon. Norman Manley, and the Leader of the Opposition, Sir Alexander Bustamante, came h o m e yesterday from the London Independence talks to receive separate welcomes, nearly five hours apart, from crowds of their party supporters that crammed the waving galleries of the Montego Bay International Airport. The Premier came in first — at 11.30 in the. forenoon.

With him were Mrs. Manley, the Cabinet members of the Jamaican delegation and some of his civil service advisers. I In a prepared statement Mr. Manley. looking fit and rested. . , .L v»_j.i....i. r* >..*...IH....M,* tnr- iig "w,isdom and good sense" towards Jamaica, and also Sir Alexander and the JLP members of the delegation for their co-operation and help" Claiming that he had carried out two of the three pledges he gave to the country last year regarding secession from the I Federation and the achievement of Independence, the Premier, • said that the third pledge would be fulfilled on April 10'when thej general election would be held, as he promised, before Indepen-' deuce. Said Premier Manley: "We settle down now to the bit jab of prepiTJnt for the Day of Independence, a great task in which everyone will have a part to pUy. Soon we will decide Who will be the captain when oar ship sets oat on the new voyace and who will man and govern her and provide Uw erew". Then five hours later Sir Alexander and the JLP members of the Jamaican, delegation flew in by BOAC jetliner to be met by an equally large crowd as had welcomed Mr. Manley earlier "'
A pink-cheeked, perky Sir Alexander spoke without prepared! notes about the tasks of Independence before the country. He said that Independence must mean the maintenance of law and' ocder as well as the improvement of the .conditions of. the unemployed and those who had little or nothing. Said Sir Alexander: "I am determined that those who have nothing to eat must eat Otherwise Independence means noth-

Details of phased contributions to expenditure beyond that date remain to be discussed.
