Thanks are due also to New York University for granting the author a leave of absence from his usual teaching and administrative duties. He is also indebted to the United States consular officers in the area, the officers of the British Overseas Service and the numerous West Indians of all parties and opinions who gave generously of their time to answer his questions. Special thanks are due to the officials of the University College of the West Indies at Mona, Jamaica, and particularly to the Institute of Social and Economic Studies and its Director, Dr. Dudley Huggins, for the facilities extended during his stay in that island. Such faults as this study contains cannot be blamed upon the officials, politicians or citizens of the West Indies who went out of their way to be of assistance and who were so hospitable to a passing stranger.
