  1. New London Planters

    The New London Planters were a minor league baseball team based in New London, Connecticut , that entered the now defunct Connecticut League in 1913, which had recently renamed itself the Eastern Association with the arrival of teams outside of the state. After finishing one game under .500 in their first year, the Planters won the 1914 championship, compiling an 81 35 record. Following the disbandment of the Eastern Association after the season, a new league called the Eastern League was formed, which started play in 1916. This outfit, a Class B organization, featured teams from Connecticut to Maine, which is not to be confused with a top level league, the Eastern League, which had changed its name to the International League four years earlier. In the Eastern League s first season, New London and Portland proved to be the teams to beat. After a successful start, the Planters were overtaken by Portland in mid July, but later were able to regain the lead and eventually win the pennant by four games, finishing with an 86 34 record. ref http web.minorleaguebaseball.com milb history top100.jsp?idx 57 Minor League Baseball ref References references Category Defunct minor league baseball teams Category Baseball teams in Connecticut Category New London County, Connecticut US baseball team stub ...   more details

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Rewa Planters Union was formed on 14 July 1943 at a meeting attended by 1500 cane farmers from Rewa Province , Fiji . The union was formed in reaction to the strike of cane farmers taking place in the Western Division, Fiji Western Division . The Government had appointed a commission to inquire into the farmers grievances and the Rewa farmers wanted to send a representative to it. The union was led by Ram Krishna Chaudhary with Faiz Mohammed as Secretary. From 1946, the union worked closely with a second union established in the Rewa cane growing area, the Southern Division Kisan Sangh under the leadership of Vishnu Deo . This coorporation was a far cry from the rivalry that existed between the Kisan Sangh and Maha Sangh , the two major unions in the Western Division. The Rewa Planters Union took an active role in the negotiations for the 1950 cane contract. With the closure of the Nausori sugar mill in 1959, the union ceased to exist.

  1. Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association

    Founded in 1895 , the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association HSPA was an unincorporated, voluntary organization of sugar plantation owners in the Hawaiian Islands . Its objective was to promote the mutual benefits of its members and the development of the sugar industry in the islands. It conducted scientific studies and gathered accurate records about the sugar industry. The HSPA practiced paternalistic management. Plantation owners introduced welfare programs, sometimes out of concern for the workers, but often designed to suit their economic ends. Threats, coercion, and divide and rule tactics were employed, particularly to keep the plantation workers ethnically segregated. The HSPA also actively campaigned to bring workers to Hawaii . For instance, they opened offices in Manila and Vigan , Ilocos Sur , to recruit Filipino workers and provide them free passage to Hawaii . Similarly, the HSPA became a powerful organization with tentacles reaching as far as Washington, D.C. , where it successfully lobbied for legislation and labour economics labor and immigration policies beneficial to the sugar industry of Hawaii . On March 24, 1934, the U.S. Congress passed the Tydings McDuffie Act Philippine Independence Act , which reclassified all Filipinos living in the United States as aliens and restricted entry of laborers from the Philippines to 50 per year. HSPA now operates under the name Hawaii Agriculture Research Center HARC . HSPA s and HARC s archives are kept at HARC s office. A significant project undertaken by HSPA was to archive Hawaii s sugar company records. Between 1983 1994, archivists hired by HSPA received and processed records from dozens of sugar companies and related entities. The archival collection, now called the HSPA Plantation Archives, was donated to the University of Hawaii at Manoa University of Hawaii at M noa Library. ref cite web title About the Plantation Archives url http www2.hawaii.edu speccoll m about.html work Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association ...   more details

Santhali speakers are also found in parts of Kokrajhar and Bongaigaon districts. The population of Santhali speakers is about 135,900. Origin The so called Tea tribes were brought in by the colonial planters British as indentured labourers from the Chhota Nagpur Plateau region. Physical characteristics General physical characteristics are short, around 4.5 to 5 ft , of dark complexion, sometimes curly hair, round features and wide nostril s, high cheek bones. Socio economic conditions One of the backward and most exploited tribes in India, though newer generation are comparatively educated and we now have intellectuals and professionals in various fields. The Tea tribes, being basically labourers, live in villages, inside tea estate s established by tea planters . These estates are located in interior places and this contributes to the backwardness and exploitation of them by the tea planters. The workers, in a way have to live with the basic facilities provided by the tea planters. The tea planters usually exploit the tea tribes every possible way. Violence and agitation of labourers against the management is common, where the state machinery normally protects the tea planters. Non education, poverty, addiction of males to country beer, poor standard of living and health facility are the problems in their life. There are instances when tea planters do not even supply the life saving drugs when workers are dying out of epidemics. The welfare officer appointed in every tea estate due to compulsion from Government of India , are mostly show pieces than of any good.
