No. 1158. REPORT ON THE COLONY AND PROTECTORATE OF KENYA FOR 1921.* (1st APRIL TO 31st DECEMBER). PREFACE. The territories comprised under the name of " Kenya Colony nd Protectorate," until recently known as the East Africa Pro- wtorate, consist of about 248,800 square miles, the eastern oundary of which was defined along the river Jtiha by an greemeiti with Italy in 1891, and on the north by an agree- lent with Abyssinia in 1908. On the west the Colony adjoins ie Uganda Protectorate, and on the south the mandated 'anganyika Territory. The British East Africa Protectorate was proclaimed on Mli November, 1890. In March, 1891, the Imperial British East frica Company undertook the administration of the country, <>m which they withdrew on 31st July, 1893, in favour of the nperial Government. On 1st April, 1905, the administration of 10 Protectorate was transferred from the Foreign to the Colonial ffice; and on 28t*d July, 1920, under the Kenya (Annexation) rder in Council, 1920, the whole of the territory, excepting that fining the mainland part of the dominions of His Highness the lltan of Zanzibar, became the Colony of Kenya. The mainland miinions of the Sultan consist of a strip extending ten miles inland ong the coast from the Tanganyika Territory frontier to Kipini, <» island of the Lamu Archipelago, and an area of ten miles round v fori of Kismayu, these territories having been leased to Great itain for an annual rent of .£17,000. PER top. The figures given in this Report are in respect of the period, 1 April, 1921, to 31st December, 1921, (nine months), as the uincial year of the Colony has now been changed to correspond th the calendar year. * A sketch map will he found in the Report for 1914-15 4 COLONIAL REPORTS -ANNUAL. 1,—GENERAL OBSERVATIONS. A.—LEGISLATION. The chief constitutional events of the period under review, viz., 1st April, 1921, to the 31st December, 1921, were :— (a) The Orders-in-Council of the 27th of June, vesting in the Governor, in trust of His Majesty the King, all Crown Lands, Native Reserves being specified as Crown Lands, establishing the Supreme Court, and defining the boundaries of the Colony arid Protectorate. (6) The Orders-in-Council of 14th July, reconstituting appeals to the Court of Appeal for Eastern Africa and to the Privy Council. By the Order-in-Council of 10th August the shilling currency was made legal. The legislation during the nine months was very heavy ; the most important measures were :— (a) Taking of powers to revise the Laws of the Colony and Protectorate. <*) The Public Health Ordinance, which has already shown its great value in many ways. (c) The Specific Loan Ordinance, empowering the raising of a loan of £5,000,000. (d) The Agricultural Produce Export Ordinance, enabling grading and inspection of agricultural produce intended for export by sea, and improved regulations for the preparation and manufacture of exported produce. (e) The Natives5 Trust Fund Ordinance, (f) The Territorial Force Ordinance. ig) The Companies' Ordinance. (h) The Native Registration Ordinance, which compiled the Ordinances of 1915 and 1920; and (0 The Game Ordinance. The Native Punishments and Divorce and Bastardy Laws Com­ missions were appointed during the year, but did not report before its close. B.—ALIBSATED AREAS. / An increase of magisterial work is noticeable. The Native irtratiort Ordinance was brought widely in force. ^ In those parts of the Colony where the division of administra- into settled and native areas has taken place, the scheme is rted to be working successfully. The excellent work of the Nairobi Municipality, particularly in introduction of a rating scheme, is acknowledged. In Mombasa much progress has been effected by the Town nning Authority, the members of which have displayed great rgy and foresight in their labours. It is to be recorded with appreciation that District Committees nughout the alienated areas have continued to give much istance to the Administration. C—NATIVE AREAS. From all sides an increasing interest in political matters on the rt of natives has been observed; in Nairobi there has been started i organization named the East Africa Association, and on the oast several Arabs have formed an Arab Association. These ..lies have not jet declared a definite line of action; in most cases ey undergo frequent changes of policy, and they often disappear together. The study on right lines of the Colony's concerns is a utter for encouragement, and it is hoped that it will be possible ) guide such associations into the path of help, not only to iricans, but also to the Government, the more as an increasing upulse towards education is a strong feature of their demands. M>vernment has sanctioned the institution of Native Advisory ouncils in certain districts* The supply of voluntary labour, augmented by a considerable llux from Tanganyika Territory and Uganda, more than met the emand during the year, notwithstanding the general reduction of gricultural wages. Doubtless the shrinkage of demand due to rade depression contributed to ttje relief of the labour situation. The redemption of silver rupees with florin notes, which was arried out during the year, was unpopular with the natives, to *hom a paper currency is entirely unsuitable. Trade throughout the Reserves was dull, and articles of native produce were practically unsaleable. A raid by a party of Masai on a neighbouring tribe in Tanganyika Territory was the only serious disturbance of the peace. 1 6 V COLONIAL REPORTS—ANNUAL, I D.—NORTHERN FRONTIER DISTRICT. The transfer! from civil to military control of the Northern Frontier District' was effected in October, 1921. * * The general political situation along the Abyssinian frontier; was, on the whole, satisfactory. In May, 1921, Dejazmatch Assafou was despatched by the Abyssinian Government to take charge of the border province. This officer's undertaking to pursue peaceful methods has been well kept, though there was a big raid on the Gurre tribe near Neboi, by the Aulihan people, backed by bandit Abyssinians, in August. The raid was hw trated by the King's African Rifles Mounted Infantry. «*> *> Towards the end of 1921 steps were taken to move the Turkani people, who for some years had encroached on the Samburu area, back to their own country, and to reinstate the latter, who had been driven south into the Mem district. The Mohamed Zubeir cattle-owning people, who had been moved in 1920 from the neigh* bourhood of Wajir to the Deshek Wama in Southern Jubaland, drifted back in 1621 to Wajir. Motor transport in the Northern Frontier District ha* been reduced, but the value of such transport:, especially in cases of emergency, is too great to admit of its abolition. The collection of taxes was delayed owing to the movement of tribes and the change of administration. The health of the Northern Frontier District was, on the whole, fairly satisfactory. E.—POPULATION. European. The estimated European population of the Colony on the 31st1 of December, 1921, was 9,792, which may be classified as under :—; Adult males ... ... 4,801 Adult females ... 2,829 Children .v 2,102 and by professions as under;— Government officials ... ... 880 Planters and farmers ... 2,458 Commercial ... 1,025 Missionaries ... ... ... ... ... 171 Professionals 38 Various ... ... ... «*. ... «». 179 Non-European. The estimated population under this head on 81st December 1921, was 84,888, comprising:— Indians ... 22,504 v Goans ... ... ,.. ... 2,430 ^krabs ... ... ...... ... 9,279 Other races »«* . *»» ••• .... ... .».. 87a* ; f &M work, '192fKl- ..••/'.•'•• / T .~ Active*.

Thirteen new appointments of medical officers during 1921 com­ pleted the sanctioned staff, and in consequence medical work in the Native Reserves has been largely increased, and the effect in com­ bating infectious disease, as it has occurred, has been striking. In 1921 the public health has been satisfactory. The close of the year found the whole Cojpny free from any epidemic disease.

    Monthly Prices of Grains in Gdańsk in the 18 Century Mikołaj Malinowski

    Historical Prices and Wages at www.iisg.nl/hpw/ Monthly Prices of Grains in Gdańsk in the 18th Century Mikołaj Malinowski [email protected] Basic Information The file contains monthly information on the lowest and the highest prices of the four grains – wheat, rye, barley and oats – in Gdańsk between 1703 and 1793. The information was obtained from Tadeusz Furtak’s Ceny w Gdańsku w latach 1701-1815, published in Lwów in 1938. The importance of this file, in comparison with the already available annual data for this period, is the fact that it shows monthly observations. In addition, most of the observations present both the minimum and the maximum price for a commodity at a given point in time. Those two features of the new dataset are crucial for any future quantitative research, as it not only provides 12 times more information, but also allows for study of seasonality and short-term price fluctuations. In his seminal work, Tadeusz Furtak gathered prices of a vast amount of commodities traded in Gdańsk. In his research in The National Archive of Gdańsk and the Gdańsk city library he found appropriate material in various sources, such as: bills of the city council; bills of hospitals and prisons; journals like “Exchange Warsaw Journal” (Dziennik Handlowy Warszawski) and “Thornishe Nachrichten”. The bills were however the main source for his work, which poses several problems. According to Furtak himself, the material he used was disorganized; prices were often indicated in different currencies; they represented not only different values of different volumes of the same good, but even different kinds of the same commodity.

    UK and Colonies

    This document was archived on 27 July 2017 UK and Colonies 1. General 1.1 Before 1 January 1949, the principal form of nationality was British subject status, which was obtained by virtue of a connection with a place within the Crown's dominions. On and after this date, the main form of nationality was citizenship of the UK and Colonies, which was obtained by virtue of a connection with a place within the UK and Colonies. 2. Meaning of the expression 2.1 On 1 January 1949, all the territories within the Crown's dominions came within the UK and Colonies except for the Dominions of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Newfoundland, India, Pakistan and Ceylon (see "DOMINIONS") and Southern Rhodesia, which were identified by s.1(3) of the BNA 1948 as independent Commonwealth countries. Section 32(1) of the 1948 Act defined "colony" as excluding any such country. Also excluded from the UK and Colonies was Southern Ireland, although it was not an independent Commonwealth country. 2.2 For the purposes of the BNA 1948, the UK included Northern Ireland and, as of 10 February 1972, the Island of Rockall, but excluded the Channel Islands and Isle of Man which, under s.32(1), were colonies. 2.3 The significance of a territory which came within the UK and Colonies was, of course, that by virtue of a connection with such a territory a person could become a CUKC. Persons who, prior to 1 January 1949, had become British subjects by birth, naturalisation, annexation or descent as a result of a connection with a territory which, on that date, came within the UK and Colonies were automatically re- classified as CUKCs (s.12(1)-(2)).

    How Do You Address the Economic Damage from a Pandemic?

    HOW DO YOU ADDRESS THE ECONOMIC DAMAGE FROM A PANDEMIC? We cannot be sure that we will ever fully eradicate COVID-19 from our lives but it is becoming clearer that masks, social distancing and now even more importantly, vaccines are reducing the risks of the virus. What are the implications for the economy and your investments? We researched the 1918-1920 Influenza Pandemic to learn how the recovery played out then. World War I was being waged when the pandemic began. An estimated 500 million people in the world were infected. It killed 50 million people including 675,000 Americans (about 0.67% of the population; at 550,000 COVID- related deaths as of this writing that equates to about 0.16% of the U.S. population today). While COVID-19 mostly impacts the elderly, the 1918 Flu took the biggest toll on younger people who comprised the bulk of the physical labor force at the time. How did the markets perform during the Flu years? Interestingly, in 1917 the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 21.7%. The following two years while the pandemic raged, the market increased 10.5% in 1918 and another 30.5% in 1919. Similar to today the stock markets performed well despite restrictions on public gatherings. In 1918 the Commercial and Financial Chronicle, a leading business news outlet at that time, reported: “In Boston the question of closing the churches is being discussed as a mean of checking the epidemic. In Pennsylvania all places of public amusement, schools, churches and all saloons have been ordered closed until further notice.” The Surgeon General of the US at the time said that these closings are: “the only way to stop the spread of the virus”.

    Gold, Silver and the Double-Florin

    GOLD, SILVER AND THE DOUBLE-FLORIN G.P. DYER 'THERE can be no more perplexing coin than the 4s. piece . .'. It is difficult, perhaps, not to feel sympathy for the disgruntled Member of Parliament who in July 1891 expressed his unhappiness with the double-florin.1 Not only had it been an unprecedented addition to the range of silver currency when it made its appearance among the Jubilee coins in the summer of 1887, but its introduction had also coincided with the revival after an interval of some forty years of the historic crown piece. With the two coins being inconveniently close in size, weight and value (Figure 1), confusion and collision were inevitable and cries of disbelief greeted the Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Goschen, when he claimed in the House of Commons that 'there can hardly be said to be any similarity between the double florin and the crown'.2 Complaints were widespread and minting of the double-florin ceased in August 1890 after scarcely more than three years. Its fate was effectively sealed shortly afterwards when an official committee on the design of coins, appointed by Goschen, agreed at its first meeting in February 1891 that it was undesirable to retain in circulation two large coins so nearly similar in size and value and decided unanimously to recommend the withdrawal of the double- florin.3 Its demise passed without regret, The Daily Telegraph recalling a year or two later that it had been universally disliked, blessing neither him who gave nor him who took.4 As for the Fig.
