The liquor commission thinks profits might even drop below last year's.

The conditions stipulated will safeguard the rights of the people living In those frontier prov inces, he said, because they are not in the same stage of develop ment as the inhabitants of the rest of the country. Britain had planned originally to partition the 260,000-square-mile country. The frontier prov inces were to have continued un der colonial administration. The present decision to incorporate the frontier provinces thus repre sents a reversal of policy. Prime Minister Atlee and Brit ish cabinet ministers conducting the independence talks with the Burmese delegation in London are "satisfied" with the progress so far made, the government source said.
