Condominium

The Anglo-French Condominium of the

New Hebrides comes seldom into the news nowadays. But, presently, when the war is over and the nations of the Pacific meet to arrange international boundaries and territorial administrations, the future of the New Hebrides will become a “live” subject No one knows how or where the Archipelago will be administered; but everyone is sure that the much-criticised Condominium will end. This photograph shows the Condominium’s chief port, Vila.

Balllande’s wharves and stores are in the foreground. Opposite is the picturesque islet of Iriki, on which is the British Residency and the Paton Memorial Hospital.
