THE INDIAN UNREST.
STATEMENT BY MR. MORLEY.
APPROVAL OF DEPORTATION. By Telegraph.—Press Association.—Copyright
(Received: May 14, 10.20 p.m.)
London*, May 14. The Secretary for India (Mr. John Morley), replying in the House of Commons yesterday to Dr. Rutherford (Radical) and Mr. O'Grady (Labour). said that nobody disliked the taking of strong executive measures such as deportation more, than he did, but the necessity for them must be decided by the emergency and the risk. ; '
'. The Home Government, he added, was determined not to strip the Viceroy of India of any weapon the lawplaced in his hands for the suppression of disorder among the natives. Nobody was so interested in the prompt suppression of these disorders as the Indian party in England, which represented causes with which his honourable friends were in such sympathy.
Mr. W. Redmond (Nationalist) urged that coercion was as useless .in India as in Ireland.
NATIVE TROOPS NOT
AFFECTED.
London, May 13.
General Viscount Kitchener, Com-mander-in-Chief of the Indian army, has authorised the statement that the native troops have been in no way affected by the seditious agitation in the Punjab.
