“INSANE SPEECHES"
MR. AMERY CRITICISED Recd. 9 p.m. Calcutta, Oct. 14. “If Mr. Amery did a good job occasionally instead of making inane speeches he would really prove himself useful.” This comment on Mr. Amery’s statement in the House of Commons on the Bengal food situation was made by the Moslem Daily Morning News. It suggests that Mr. should arrange the loan of Itali|n merchant shipping which has come under Allied control. Other newspapers are also severely critical of Mr. Amery’s statement. The British-owned Statesman says:— “Thoughtful observers find themselves sadly out of tune, both factually and emotionally, with Mr. Amery’s speech, except for his criticism of mistakes of previous Bengal Ministries.” The Hindustan Standard says: “The Bengal death-roll mounting and Mr. Amery’s invisible help is mateneu only by the nrvisible stocks of rice in Bengal.”
