INDIA'S STATUS.
DECLARATION FROM PARLIAMENT. (united press association— by electric TELEGBAPH —COPI'BIGHT.) LONDON, December 25. The report of the Indian Central Committee which shared in the Simon Commission's investigations throughout India demands an explicit declaration bv Parliament that full Dominion status is the goal, and that an immediate and substantial step towards the attainment thereof be made by conferring a liberal measure ot autonomy on the provinces, and making the Government of India responsible to the Legislature. . It is urged that the Madras and Bombay Governments should be permitted to make the experiment or raising local armies to maintain I °- ei " nal security in order to Indian suspicions that Great Britain intends to keep India in subjection b. control of her army are unwarranted.
