THE SIMON REPORT, A MIXED RECEPTION. [United Press Association—By Ceble— Copyright.] Delhi, June 11. The general attitude of the Congress party towards the Simon report is summed up by a local extremist, Dr. Bidhan Chandrardy, who contemputously says he has not read the report and is not going to do so. The Caloutta Nationalist journal “Basumti” says: "The first part of the report of God’s seven chosen Englishmen is out. It has cost the Indian taxpayer a sum of money which might annually have saved 100 poor peasants from dying of preventible disease.” Moslems, on the other hand, warmly welcome what they call a masterly survey of the Indian situation, characterised by a most commendable spirit of sympathy and fairness. _____
