'Peace and Love’’ fashions Jamaica sells
"Peace and Love" fashions
are the newest thing to come
out of Jamaica, an Island
roted fo r Its talented de
signers. "R a s " Lloyd Young,
creator of the wildly original
silk screen prints which he
aim s into shirts, longdresses
and dashlkis, says that be
fore he begins making any
thing he meditates on the
credo of his religious group:
"Peace and L o v e".
1 he handsome young de
signer is a member of a
relatively
small but very
visible sect in Jamaica called
the Rastafarians. Members
are Africa-oriented and fo
cused on Ethiopia; the symbol
found on almost all Rasta
art is the Conquering Lion
of Juday — or
Em peror
Haillte Selassie. Almost all
of Ras Lloyd’ s fabrics feature
this symbol, while his knitted
caps ami pom poms are in
the Ethiopian colors of red
green and yellow.
Rasta caps are very popu
la r all over Jamaica; they
are always band knitted or
crocheted and are equally be
coming to both men and
women, though they are au
thentically
worn
only by
brother members.
At Ras
Lloyd's boutique. "G lg in ra "
on Eastwood Road in Kingston,
the caps sell for US $5, while
his long cotton print dresses
average US $25 and the short
version is about US $15. He
also features belts and other
accessories.
Rasta artists and crafts
men are gaining increasing
notice in Jamaica for their
talent and originality. Painter
Everard Brown, pastor of the
F irs t
Ethiopian
Orthodox
Church near Spanish Town,
has won national awards for
his
exquisite
hand made
musical instruments, a num
ber of which are on display
at the Jamaica School of
M usic.
Craftsman Brother
E ric makes traditional Rasta
drums and wine casks at his
Jamaica Drum Shop on Spanish
Town Road, a few miles east
of Kingston. A Rasta com
mune on Love Lane inCentral
Kingston turns out colorful
rope handbags and hammocks.
Throughout the island today
it is possible to buy caps

A id s e t,
Congressional candidate Ste
w art Bledsoe has disclosed
what he calls an "alarm ing
blunder" by his democrat op-
ponent.
It has to do with
revenue sharing.
Mike McCormack wasn’teven
there for the revenue sharing
vote." Bledsoe said, "o n that
crucial, firs t day when the 29
billion dollar chance for the
iwople to retrieve some of their
tax dollars came up, M cC or
mack was campaigning in Rich
land and was recorded absent.”
"O n the second day, when
revenue s,taring cam up, again,
he paired Ills vote and his con
gressional responsibility was
crowning a queen at the C lark
County F a ir!”
"Revenue sharing is one ol
the most Important pieces of
legislation in the lase decade.
If McCormak had been listen
ing to the people In his district,
he would have know than re
venue sharing is dear to the
hearts of the over-burdenec
taxpayers. If he did. In fact
know it, he le t rayed his public
trust by not being ['resent in
Congress to speak out on be
half of the people he Is sup
posed to be representing. All
of us looking for future relief
from spiraling taxes deserve
better service than we’ re get
ting from the "absent" M r .
M cCorm ack.’*
