Such is the extent of these activities that the Internationai Transport Workers' Federation, representing 200,000 aviation workers around the world, have threatened to close down airlines unless something is done.

One delightful suggestion, according to the 'Daily Mail', was a trapdoor immediately behind the pilot's seat where hijackers are wont to stand. A flick of a lever and the hi-jacker would find himself going solo at 30,000 feet.

In the good old Hollywood epic tradition, the Americans proposed building a cardboard replica of Havana airport and siting it cunningly in Florida.

Other, more down to earth, suggestions revolved around the problem of removing the offenders at an early stage by detecting weapons and explosives at ground level.

This can be done by electric sensors which are already in use at four major American airports, including New York's Kennedy.

Unfortunately, these devices are not particularly discriminating. They cannot distinguish between a pistol and the metal wiring which is often used in brassieres. of grim-faced FBI females was found to be concealing nothing more lethal than her natural attributes enclosed by a stiffiywired corset.

Always the animal lovers, the British delegation had the idea of training dogs to sniff out the nitroglycerine in bombs.

The snag is that the bounds cannot tell the difference between the explosive and hydraulic fluid —a problem which does not beset the motorist.

It seems that the big surprise of the conference has been the praise heaped on Cuba where most of the 122 planes hijacked in the past year have been forced to land.

One of the American delegation admitted: "They turn aircraft around at Havana these days faster than some airlines can in the United States.' Peaceful coexistence derful thing.

TEN DAYS of Tory government gone and major confrontations are already shaping up in two industries - printing and the ports - where the employers face some of their biggest problems.

The Shell group announced its 1969 profits recently. They were up almost 43 per cent the year - from $18.5 million (about £8.6 million sterling, to $26.5 million (about tI2.5 million sterling).

This is the highest profit ever recorded by a local' petroleum company, but it was not enough to prevent the price of petrol going up throughout the country this Nor, it seems, was it enough to make the people receiving the money happy.

The chairman, a Mr L. T. Froggatt, was reported as saying he was not quite satisfied, although • he did admit the 1969 profits were very encouraging.

He must have been rubbing his hands with glee underneath his executive desk when he made the statement, for this huge pile will not be the only figures marked in the black of Shell's accounts.

In 1967 profits jumped from $2.4 million (about £1.1 million sterling) to $17 million (about £7.9 million stérling).

Meanwhile, out in the bush, life is not quite as sweet, at least for the workers.

STATION HANDS applied through the Australian Workers' Union for a 40-hour week (most industries have had this, on paper anyway, Ior 22 years), but it was knocked back by the Arbitration Commission with the words that, although some conditions seemed a somewhat feudal approach to employment, there was no serious unrest among the station hands.

AWU Federal Secretary Mr T. Dougherty said the decision would keep station hands at the level of vassals and serfs working under a feudal system and urged them to walk off the job and seek different work.

But this is hardly likely to happen.

Away from the cities there is little work, even in small country towns.

NSW. 20001 moving into a big city like Sydney or Melbourne as an unskilled worker, where it would cost at least $25 (about £11 13s) a week to rent a house, can hardly be appealing.

Although pay in Australia is higher than in the UK it is not that much better for many workers. In Sydney a labourer may earn not much over $40 a week (about £19 13s).

An estimated 2,000 to 3,000 aborigines are station hands and these have long been considered a cheap source of labour.

The old familiar argument that they would not know what to do with the money, or they would only spend it on booze, has usually been trotted out to defend this position.

But it's an ill wind that blows no good.

THE TORY victory in Britain was received with pleasure here by the ruling Liberals (Conservative).

Now they feel they will have someone else with whom to share the burden of defence in the East.

Someone who also shares their view that coloured people should be kept out of their country, while permitting themselves the right to go and defend 'democracy' for these self-same coloured people.
