The United Sta,te/j, as Britain's ally, cannot disown responsibility for what the British do in India, declared Mahatma GandM, in a special message to America pujbj'ished in "India Today," the Bulletin of the India League. He addedc "I Would not have asked my country to linvite Britain to withdraw its rule , over India if I had not seen 'it necessary, for the sake of Britain and thf; Allied cause. By that supreme act <j,f justice, Britain could have tafeen at/ay all cause for India's seething' discointent. It would1 be worth all the batf{le/3hips and airships which your engineers and financial resources can produce*.
"Is ther<£ anything wrong with the Congress ;E'arty demanding unconditional reco/mition of India's independence? "ftiis is the psychological moment fjbfr that recognition. Only then can therri be irresistible opposition to Japanese Jaggression."
