In a vote like this, do place was hotly contested between China- members vote for their postal Greece and Canada-France. In fact, administration? Canada-France obtained more 1st place votes than China-Greece. % of national vote in 1st place vote Canada-Greenland-Norway 11,1% China-Greece 33,3% Canada-France 75,0% I would suggest that for the next contest members should qualify their vote by providing us with their reason. Do they prefer this particular joint issue because the subject appeals to them, or they prefer engraved stamps, or they like the fact that dual official documents were available. Reasons such as these can help us identify trends in the small world of joint issues collecting and perhaps influence (a little) postal administrations in the way they do joint issues. A quick look at the results over the first three years of the contest reveals a healthy balance between postal administrations (none have won the top honor twice) and continents (Asia and Europe have won thrice, North America once). The year 2005 Of the 32 joint issues eligible this year, looks to be a great year with the return of only 24 received votes and just 12 1st place heavyweight contestants like Australia (not votes.

  • Proposed Anglo-French Issue 1940
    SPECIAL STAMP HISTORY Proposed Anglo-French Issue 1940 On 3 September 1939 France and Great Britain declared war upon Nazi Germany. In the following months an unprecedented degree of co-operation arose between the two countries on military, political and economic matters, which caused many hopeful observers to envisage an even closer union, extending beyond the war and drawing in other countries. The earliest recorded example of this enthusiasm seeking philatelic expression is that of M. Fernand Griffon, of Étables in Brittany who on 30 November 1939 wrote to both King George VI and President Albert Lebrun of France, suggesting a stamp for simultaneous release in both countries, either in separate languages and denominations, or, size permitting, combining both. The design would include a figure representing Peace and the legend ‘Notre But’ (Our Aim). He referred to bi-lingual stamps displaying the denomination in both local currencies issued in the Anglo-French Condominium of the New Hebrides from 1925 to 1938. M. Griffon's letter to President Lebrun was forwarded to the French Postal Administration, the PTT, who replied with a polite acknowledgement. His letter to King George VI was passed to the Foreign Office, who made no subsequent reply and, in fact, seem to have promptly mislaid it. Later, when the proposal had been taken up officially and was moving toward 1 fruition amidst wide public interest, M. Griffon wrote to various bodies, including the French Press, the PTT, the BBC and Buckingham Palace, in a vain attempt to win recognition as its originator. The initiative in fact came from M.

  • The Governance of a Fragile Eurozone Paul De Grauwe* No
    The Governance of a Fragile Eurozone Paul De Grauwe* No. 346, May 2011 Abstract When entering a monetary union, member countries change the nature of their sovereign debt in a fundamental way, i.e. they cease to have control over the currency in which their debt is issued. As a result, financial markets can force these countries’ sovereigns into default. In this sense, member countries of a monetary union are downgraded to the status of emerging economies. This makes the monetary union fragile and vulnerable to changing market sentiments. It also makes it possible that self-fulfilling multiple equilibria arise. This paper analyzes the implications of this fragility for the governance of the eurozone. It concludes that the new governance structure – the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), which is intended to be successor starting in 2013 of the European Financial Stability Mechanism (EFSF), created in May 2010 – does not sufficiently recognize this fragility. Some of the features of the new financial assistance are likely to increase this fragility. In addition, it is also likely to present member countries from using the automatic stabilizers during a recession. This is surely a step backward in the long history of social progress in Europe. The author concludes by suggesting a different approach for dealing with these problems. * Paul De Grauwe is Professor of Economics at the University of Leuven and Senior Associate Research Fellow at CEPS. The author is grateful to Daniel Gros, Martin Wolf and Charles Wyplosz for comments and suggestions. CEPS Working Documents are intended to give an indication of work being conducted within CEPS’ research programmes and to stimulate reactions from other experts in the field.

With the advent of the Word Processor the opportunity has been taken to convert these original hard copy indexes into electronic format, to amalgamate them into one document, and to bring the index up to date. From this point forward future indexing will be relatively straightforward and the index will be updated within a short period after each bulletin is published. To those members with a PC it will be available on-line, alternatively up-to-date hard copy prints will be available on request from the Publications Officer. The index now provides easy access to an enormous corpus of high quality information covering virtually every topic within British West Indies philately. As the number of subjects covered has expanded over the years it has been deemed necessary to sub-divide the topics under each colony heading into four separate categories, each entry being listed in alphabetical order.
